Hi All,
The Axolotl Colony is increasingly receiving requests from researchers
looking for axolotl cell lines of one type or another. As this is not
something that we can supply, I would like to extend these requests to the
community at large.
For our own general knowledge here at the colony: Has anyone successfully
generated (or are you working toward generating) axolotl cell lines of any
sort? If so, will you please take a minute to post a short note about the
cell lines you may currently have or may be working toward producing? If
we as a community all know that these things are available, and that
people are willing to share their expertise and/or materials, it may help
prevent other labs from 'reinventing the wheel.'
More specifically, Craig Crews from Yale is looking to make contact with
anyone with experience regarding axolotl cell-lines in general.
Specificaly, he is interested in advice about procuring and/or producing
axolotl primary epithelial cell cultures. If anyone can assist Dr. Crews
in his pursuit, you may reach him through the Axolotl Colony, or by
posting to this forum. I will forward any email messages directly to Dr.
Crews. Thank you all for your time.
Sincerely,
Jill Gresens
IU Axolotl Colony
