DAN-G Cells

The DAN-G cell line is derived from a human pancreatic carcinoma. It is extensively utilized in research focused on pancreatic cancer, particularly in studies pertaining to tumorigenesis, metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance. The genetic profile of DAN-G includes mutations in key oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, which are characteristic of pancreatic adenocarcinomas. This makes the cell line a valuable model for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying pancreatic cancer and for testing new therapeutic strategies. In addition to its applications in cancer research, the DAN-G cell line has been used to study the cellular processes involved in the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, including cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and signal transduction pathways. The cells exhibit aggressive in vitro growth characteristics and have the ability to form tumors in immunocompromised mice, which simulates the human disease and provides an in vivo system for evaluating the efficacy of anticancer drugs. Researchers also employ this cell line to investigate the role of the tumor microenvironment in pancreatic cancer progression and resistance to therapy.
