Description
Immortalized Human Mammary Epithelial Cells (HMEC 2.6) is an immortalized breast epithelial cell line which are not tumorigenic and do not show no anchorage-independent growth. There is a normal distribution of cells in G1, S, and G2/M phase and they express normal breast epithelial markers ( E-cadherin, CK7/18, and CK5/14). The cells retain primary characteristics and are valuable for research relating to mammary epithelial biology.
