- Name: MCF10A hRas_V12 cell line
- Alternate name: transforming protein p21, h-Ras, HRAS
- Research fields: Cancer
- Tool sub type: Continuous
- Parental cell: MCF10A
- Organism: Human
- Tissue: Breast
- Disease: Cancer

- Description: MCF10A cells are frequently used to study signalling pathways in breast cancer. They can be grown in 3D culture. The addition of the H-Ras12 simulates breast cancer as 50% of breast cancers display increased H-Ras activity.
- Biosafety level: 1
- Additional notes: There is a negative control for this cell line which was made using the same pLA vector but not expressing the HRAS gene.
Target Details
- Target: HRas
Applications
- Application notes: There is a negative control for this cell line which was made using the same pLA vector but not expressing the HRAS gene.
