Hepatoma Cells
Hepatoma cells are cancer cells derived from the liver. They are of significant clinical importance due to the high mortality associated with liver cancer. These cells are used in research to study the molecular mechanisms of liver cancer and to screen for potential drugs for the treatment of this disease. In addition, they are used in cellular and in vivo models to understand how the cancer cells interact with the surrounding tissues, how they evolve and how they respond to treatments. By understanding the biology of hepatoma cells, we can develop better cancer therapies and potentially increase survival of patients with liver cancer.
