GFP-Human Liver Carcinoma Cells (HuH7)
Quick Actions
Product Overview
Description
GFP-Human Liver Carcinoma Cells, commonly referred to as HuH7, are specialized cell lines derived from human hepatocellular carcinoma. These cells have been genetically engineered to express green fluorescent protein (GFP), which enables researchers to easily visualize and track their behavior during various experiments. This characteristic makes them particularly valuable for live-cell imaging, fluorescence microscopy, migration assays, and studies focused on tumor biology and drug responses.
The original HuH7 cell line is a robust and well-characterized model for liver cancer research, originating from a tissue sample of hepatocellular carcinoma. Due to its reliable growth and characteristic features, the HuH7 cell line has become a crucial tool in a wide range of studies, including those related to liver cancer progression, the effects of hepatitis viruses, assessments of hepatotoxicity, and investigations into metabolic disorders. Researchers rely on these cells to advance our understanding of liver disease and to evaluate potential therapeutic interventions.

Key Features
Catalog Number: NBP-0134GFP
Product Format: Frozen
Vial Cell Number: > 5x10[5] cells/vial
Storage: Liquid Nitrogen, Vapor Phase
Intended Use: Research use only (RUO)
Characteristics:
HuH7 cells exhibit an adherent, epithelial-like morphology and maintain robust GFP fluorescence, making them ideal for imaging-based experiments. These cells are widely used as a model for hepatocellular carcinoma and are particularly valuable in the fields of hepatic biology, oncology, hepatitis C virus research, and drug metabolism studies. The expression of GFP allows for direct monitoring of cell growth, morphology, viability, and tumor cell behavior without the need for additional staining.
