Airway epithelial cells play a crucial role in investigating the physiological and pathological mechanisms of the respiratory tract in yaks, a species whose unique respiratory system has garnered extensive interest. Despite this growing interest, there currently are no available airway epithelial cell lines from yaks, underscoring the crucial need to establish a yak respiratory epithelial cell line. Therefore, our objective was to isolate a population of primary yak nasopharyngeal epithelial cells (pYNE) and transform them into immortalized yak nasopharyngeal epithelial cells (iYNE), assessing their suitability as an in vitro model. Employing a combined method of physical elimination and differential adhesion, we successfully isolated a population of high-purity pYNE, and developed an iYNE line through pCI-neo-hTERT plasmid transfection. Karyotype and transmission electron microscopy analyses confirmed that pYNE and iYNE share identical morphologies and structures. Gel electrophoresis and real-time PCR analyses demonstrated that pYNE and iYNE expressed similar levels of KRT18 and CDH1 genes (p ≥ 0.541). Notably, iYNE expressed a significantly high level of TERT gene expression (p |
