Description

Description: HT29 cells were differentiated into mature goblet cells using methotrexate. Mucous-secreting HT29-MTX subclones were isolated from this cell clone and characterized with regard to tight junction formation, development of confluent monolayers and production of a mucous layer. HT29-MTX-E12 provides a model system to study the influence of the mucous layer on nanoparticle diffusion.
