DLD-1 Colorectal Adenocarcinoma Epithelial cells (DLD-1 )

DLD-1 cells are a well-established human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line commonly used in cancer research. These cells were derived from a Dukes' type C, grade 3, colorectal tumor of a 65-year-old female patient. DLD-1 cells are characterized by their epithelial morphology and are commonly used to study various aspects of colorectal cancer, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and drug response.

Researchers utilize DLD-1 cells to investigate molecular pathways involved in colorectal cancer progression and to screen potential anticancer drugs or therapeutic targets. These cells are an essential tool in understanding the mechanisms underlying colorectal cancer development and progression and can provide valuable insights into potential treatments for this disease.
