🤖 AI SummaryBased on 13 publications

Quick Overview

Human ovarian cancer cell line with unique molecular features.

Detailed Summary

ES-2 is a human ovarian cancer cell line derived from a poorly differentiated clear cell carcinoma. It has been extensively studied for its genetic and molecular characteristics, including mutations in key oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Research has highlighted its distinct features compared to other ovarian cancer cell lines, particularly in terms of histological and genetic profiles. ES-2 is notable for its lack of TP53 mutations, which is a common feature in many ovarian cancers, and its unique expression patterns of biomarkers such as HNF-1B and WT1. These characteristics make ES-2 a valuable model for studying the molecular mechanisms of ovarian clear cell carcinoma and for evaluating therapeutic strategies.
