HGC-27 Cells

HGC-27 is a human gastric carcinoma cell line derived from the metastatic site of an adult patient. The cell line exhibits an epithelial morphology and is commonly used in the study of gastric cancer pathogenesis and the cellular responses to various chemotherapy agents. HGC-27 cells have been utilized in numerous studies to investigate mechanisms of cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis. They serve as a valuable model for understanding the complex molecular interactions and pathways involved in gastric cancer, including the response to therapeutic compounds and the investigation of novel drug targets. These cells are also instrumental in studying the role of various genetic and epigenetic modifications in gastric cancer progression. Research using HGC-27 has contributed to insights into cellular processes like epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a critical event in cancer metastasis. Additionally, the cell line has been used to explore receptor signaling pathways and their impact on cancer cell behavior, providing crucial data for the development of targeted therapies. Overall, HGC-27 is an important tool in the advancement of gastric cancer research, helping to pave the way for new therapeutic strategies and improving our understanding of disease mechanisms.
