HeLa9903 is a cell line derived from the well-known HeLa cervical tumor cells, specifically engineered for research into estrogen receptor (ER) activity. This cell line is stably transfected with two constructs: one expressing the human estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and another comprising a firefly luciferase reporter that is regulated by an estrogen-responsive element (ERE) linked to a mouse metallothionein promoter. Notably, HeLa9903 maintains the epithelial morphology and adherent growth characteristics typical of HeLa cells without the use of viral vectors for gene introduction.

FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY
HeLa9903 serves as a powerful tool in biological research, particularly in assays that assess ER transactivation. It is instrumental in predicting the binding affinity of various chemicals to ERα, enabling studies on the agonistic effects of compounds like bisphenol A and the influence of phyto- and mycoestrogens on estrogenic responses. Additionally, this cell line facilitates investigations into the dimerization and transcriptional activity of ERα, which are crucial for understanding potential health risks associated with estrogenic compounds. Overall, HeLa9903 is vital for advancing research in endocrinology and toxicology.
The HeLa9903 is HeLa cell line that is stably expressing human estrogen receptor-alpha, reportor gene (estrogen response element linked to luciferase), and firefly luciferase gene (pGL3(Luc+)).
The introduced plasmids include
pGL3-TATA-EREx5-BSD: reportor gene (upstream sequences of Xenopus-derived vitronectin gene containing estrogen responce element was linked to firefly luciferase gene (Luc+))
pRC/RSV-hERalpha Kozak: human estrogen receptor alpha gene driven by RSV promotor.
