Mouse liver cancer cells (Hepa 1-6-Luc)

The applications of Mouse liver cancer cells (Hepa 1-6-Luc) serve as a crucial resource in oncology research and drug development enabling scientists to study tumor biology and the efficacy of anti-cancer treatments in a controlled environment These cells are often used in tumorigenicity assays where their luciferase activity allows for real-time monitoring of cancer progression and response to therapies providing invaluable data that can accelerate the development of new therapeutic strategies

Furthermore the preservation and transportation of Hepa 1-6-Luc cells using dry ice methods ensure their viability and functionality during transport making them accessible for research collaborations and experiments across various laboratories This is particularly important in studies focused on carcinogenesis and the evaluation of targeted therapies as consistent cell quality is critical for reproducible results

In addition utilizing a virus method for transfection in these cells allows for the introduction of specific genes or treatments enabling detailed investigations into gene function and the molecular mechanisms of liver cancer progression The ability to maintain these epithelial adherent cells in culture using a growth medium composed of 90% DMEM and 10% FBS further enhances their application in studying the cellular environment and interactions that drive tumor growth
