产品简介：U-CH1 is the first human chordoma cell line. It exhibits hordoma-like characteristics and hasmolecular, genetic, and morphological features typical of chordoma. This cell line was establishedfrom a local recurrence of a sacrococcygeal hordoma after radiotherapy 4 years after initial surgery. Chordoma is arare slow-growing tumor type, and U-CH1 is a relatively slow-growing cell line. U-CH1 has a eterogeneousmorphology consisting of physaliferous cells with mcinous intercellularsubstance, which represent typical chordoma features. The cells overexpress the transcription factor T (Brachyury)that is the most specific marker for chordoma. This cell line was accessioned with thesupport of the Chordoma Foundation, a non-profit organization working to improve the lives of chordoma patients by accelerating research to develop effective treatments for the chordoma disease
