Quick Overview

Human lung fibroblast cell line for cancer research

Detailed Summary

The Hs 618.T cell line is a human lung fibroblast cell line derived from lung tissue. It is commonly used in cancer research due to its fibroblast characteristics, which are relevant for studying tumor microenvironments and cancer progression. This cell line provides a valuable model for investigating molecular mechanisms and drug responses in lung-related malignancies. Its utility extends to studies involving cell signaling, gene expression, and therapeutic target identification. The cell line's origin as a fibroblast makes it particularly useful for understanding interactions between cancer cells and the surrounding stromal cells in the lung.
