3T6-Swiss albino Cells

The 3T6-Swiss albino cell line originates from the tissue of Swiss albino mice, specifically developed for a broad range of virological and oncological research purposes. This fibroblast cell line is known for its susceptibility to various viruses, including murine sarcoma viruses, making it an invaluable tool in the study of viral oncogenesis and the transformational properties of oncogenes in a controlled environment. The robustness of 3T6-Swiss albino cells in culture allows for detailed genetic manipulation and analysis, facilitating advanced genetic studies that seek to understand the intricacies of cancer progression and viral infection mechanisms. In addition to its applications in virology, the 3T6-Swiss albino cell line is frequently used in pharmacological research. Its responsiveness to pharmaceutical agents makes it a suitable model for drug screening and toxicity testing. Researchers utilize these cells to examine the cellular responses to new compounds, evaluating their efficacy and safety before proceeding to more complex in vivo studies. The genetic stability of the 3T6-Swiss albino cell line over multiple passages supports consistent experimental results, which is crucial for the development of reliable therapeutic strategies.
