Cell Line Origin

Human primary pancreatic adenocarcinoma

Cell Line Description

Derived from a 61 year old female with a primary adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. BxPC-3 cells produce mucin and the tumour produced in a nude mouse is moderately well to poorly differentiated like the primary adenocarcinoma.

Application

BXPC3 cell line has been used to determine the biological and therapeutic importance of gastrin gene expression in pancreatic adenocarcinomas.
