Description: NCI-HPN-F43-Mam is produced from spontaneously transformed primary cell cultures without genetic, viral or chemical manipulation. This murine cell line is derived from normal epithelial cells in the mammary gland.
Previous applications of this cell line include telomerase analysis by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH).
This in vitro model allows study of sequential genetic and genomic alterations in the natural process of oncogenesis. - Research area: Cancer
- For Research Use Only
