Quick Overview

TOV-21G is a human ovarian cancer cell line used in cancer research.

Detailed Summary

TOV-21G is a human ovarian cancer cell line derived from a patient with ovarian cancer. It is widely used in research to study the molecular mechanisms of ovarian cancer and to develop targeted therapies. The cell line has been characterized in multiple studies for its genetic and molecular profiles, including mutations in key cancer-related genes such as TP53 and PIK3CA. Research on TOV-21G has contributed to understanding the genomic diversity of ovarian cancer and has been utilized in drug sensitivity screens and functional genomics studies. The cell line is part of the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and has been used in studies related to drug resistance and therapeutic strategies.
