We require the Human granulosa cell line KGN and/or COV434 for a research project on Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). The COV434 cell line is currently unavailable in Sigma-Aldrich.
If any scientist can provide the cell line, our lab will be grateful. Please state the procedure thereof.
Thanking you in advance.
First search for paper of same cell line online, if you get the paper of Indian scientist. It would be easy to contact. You will find most probably in any CSIR institute, INDIA. For PCOS use SKVO3 as ovarian cancer cell line.
Mohammad Tariq Ali Khan could you share me the link of any paper that uses SKOV3 as the cell line for development of PCOS model?

It is always better to use best cell line which fits your study and research topic but if in case you are unable to find same. Alternative in research always exist and acceptable, so in your case you may use SKOV3 as well. If people have used I mean researcher in past.
we have used crl7566 endometrial cell line and Ishikawa as control endometriosis cell line but later we got crl4003 which is normal cell line.
it solely depends on the available resources you have and utilise them properly.
I hope now everything is clear to you.
