Quick Overview

Human endometrial cancer cell line for research

Detailed Summary

AN3-CA is a human endometrial cancer cell line established from a uterine neoplasm associated with acanthosis nigricans. The cell line exhibits rapid in vitro proliferation and unique cytoplasmic bubbling activity. It has been used in studies involving tumor transplantation in hamsters and analysis of cellular characteristics. The line shows potential for research in cancer biology and drug development.
