CellEDIT - CRISPR-Edited MCF7 Cell Line

We provide you with a custom and high-quality engineered MCF7 cell line to support your research.

We’ll engineer your MCF7 cell line, so you can speed up your experiment.


The MCF7 cell line was derived from a human breast adenocarcinoma. This cell line is widely used in biomedical research and industrial applications.  This is due to its well-characterized nature and responsiveness to hormones.

MCF7 Cell Line Applications


  Cancer Research: MCF7 cells are extensively used to study breast cancer biology, including tumor growth, metastasis, and the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer progression.

 

 Drug Screening and Development: These cells are a standard model for testing the efficacy and toxicity of new anticancer drugs, particularly those targeting breast cancer.

 

 Hormone Research: MCF7 cells are hormone-responsive, making them ideal for studying the effects of estrogen and other hormones on cell proliferation, differentiation, and gene expression.

 

 Genetic Studies: Researchers use MCF7 cells to investigate the roles of specific genes and genetic pathways in cancer development and treatment resistance.

 

 Signal Transduction Studies: These cells help elucidate the signaling pathways involved in cancer cell growth and survival, in particular, pathways regulated by hormones and growth factors.
