U251-luc Orthotopic Model

Synonyms: –

U251-luc is a luminescent glioblastoma cell line derived from U251. It expresses luciferase, enabling non-invasive monitoring of tumor growth and response to treatments using bioluminescence imaging. U251-luc serves as a valuable tool for preclinical research in glioblastoma, allowing researchers to study tumor behavior, evaluate drug efficacy, and explore therapeutic approaches. This cell line offers a practical platform for investigating glioblastoma biology and developing novel treatment strategies.
