Scientists study the behaviour of isolated cells grown in the laboratory for insights into how cells function in the body in health and disease. Experiments using cell culture are used for developing new diagnostic tests and new treatments for diseases. This is a list of major breast cancer cell lines that are primarily used in breast cancer ...
A major goal of cancer genome sequencing is to identify driver mutations: genetic changes which increase the mutation rate in the cell, leading to more rapid tumor evolution and metastasis. [32] It is difficult to determine driver mutations from DNA sequence alone; but drivers tend to be the most commonly shared mutations amongst tumors ...
DU145, PC3, and LNCaP are considered to be the standard prostate cancer cell lines used in therapeutic research. [ 1 ] The DU145 cell line was derived from a central nervous system metastasis , of primary prostate adenocarcinoma origin, removed during a parieto-occipital craniotomy of a 69-year-old, White, male.
Properties of common prostate cancer cell lines. PC3 (PC-3) is a human prostate cancer cell line used in prostate cancer research and drug development. [1] PC3 cells are useful in investigating biochemical changes in advanced prostate cancer cells and in assessing their response to chemotherapeutic agents. PC3 cells are also used to study viral ...
Oncogenomics is a sub-field of genomics that characterizes cancer-associated genes.It focuses on genomic, epigenomic and transcript alterations in cancer. Cancer is a genetic disease caused by accumulation of DNA mutations and epigenetic alterations leading to unrestrained cell proliferation and neoplasm formation.
LOCtarget is a tool for predicting, and a database of pre-computed predictions for, sub-cellular localization of eukaryotic and prokaryotic proteins. Several methods are employed to make the predictions, including text analysis of SWISS-PROT keywords, nuclear localization signals, and the use of neural networks. (bio.tools entry) [41]
Originally the cell line was named MCF-7/ADR-RES; it was renamed together with the change in classification. [8] Two brain cancer cell lines, SNB-19 and U251, were discovered to come from the same person. [9] This makes a mixup likely. A 61st cell line, MDA-N, has been confirmed to being derived from the misclassified MDA-MB-435 cell line. [7]
