Lung Cancer Cell Lines |
Cancer cell lines have been widely used for research purposes, and their characterization indicates that they are actually excellent models for studying the biological mechanisms involved in cancer. Cancer cell lines increases information about the deregulated genes and signaling pathways in this disease. Moreover, model is the origin of anticancer drug development and testing, and also is an alternative to transplantable animal tumors in chemotherapeutics testing. In fact, the use of appropriate in vitro models in cancer research is crucial for investigating genetic, epigenetic and cellular pathways, for studying proliferation deregulation, apoptosis and cancer progression, for identifying potential molecular markers, and for screening and characterizing novel cancer therapeutics. |
