人脊索瘤细胞U-CH1
背景描述 U-CH1 is the first human chordoma cell line. It exhibits chordoma-like characteristics and has
molecular, genetic, and morphological features typical of chordoma. This cell line was established
from a local recurrence of a sacrococcygeal chordoma after radiotherapy 4 years after initial surgery. Chordoma is a rare slow-growing tumor type, and U-CH1 is a relatively slow-growing cell line. U-CH1 has a heterogeneous morphology consisting of physaliferous cells with mcinous intercellular
substance, which represent typical chordoma features. The cells overexpress the transcription factor T (Brachyury) that is the most specific marker for chordoma. This cell line was accessioned with the
support of the Chordoma Foundation, a non-profit organization working to improve the lives of
chordoma patients by accelerating research to develop effective treatments for the chordoma disease.
