Quick Overview

Human medulloblastoma cell line for cancer research.

Detailed Summary

The Daoy cell line is a human medulloblastoma cell line derived from a pediatric brain tumor. It is widely used in research to study the molecular mechanisms of medulloblastoma, including the role of the MYC gene and the Notch signaling pathway. Daoy cells are known for their ability to form tumors in vivo and are used in studies related to cancer stem cells and drug resistance. The cell line has been utilized in investigations of BET bromodomain inhibitors, which target the MYC pathway, and in studies examining the effects of genetic and epigenetic alterations on tumor progression. Additionally, Daoy cells have been used to explore the role of neuralized1 in apoptosis and the potential of MDM2 antagonists in inducing cell death. The cell line is also employed in studies on the tumor microenvironment and the development of targeted therapies.
