RBE Hepatobiliary Carcinoma Cells (RBE)

RBE Hepatobiliary Carcinoma Cells (RBE)

RBE are a widely used cell line in the study of cholangiocarcinoma, a form of cancer that originates in the bile ducts of the liver. These cells are derived from human hepatobiliary carcinoma tissue, which allows researchers to model the disease in a laboratory setting.

The RBE cell line has distinct characteristics. They typically display an epithelial - like morphology and grow in a monolayer, adhering firmly to the surface of cell culture flasks. Biochemically, they express certain markers and proteins relevant to cholangiocarcinoma, enabling the investigation of tumor - specific behaviors. For example, they can be used to study how cancer cells metastasize, resist apoptosis, and respond to various therapeutic agents.
