Also known as: CAS1

🤖 AI SummaryBased on 7 publications

Quick Overview

Human cancer cell line with potential for research in cancer biology and drug development.

Detailed Summary

CAS-1 is a human cancer cell line derived from a glioblastoma (WHO grade IV). It is used in research to study the molecular mechanisms of cancer and to develop new therapeutic strategies. The cell line is part of the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and has been characterized for its genetic and molecular profiles. CAS-1 is utilized in studies involving drug sensitivity, genomic alterations, and cancer biology. It is also used to investigate the role of specific genes and pathways in cancer progression and response to treatment.
