- Model description: Platinum-resistant HGSC in vivo cell line
- CRISPR: No
- Description: Cells show increased expression of the ABCB1 drug efflux pump as well as reversion mutations in BRCA genes and loss of BRCA promoter-methylation. Platinum-resistant HGSC cancer cells with a growth advantage in the presence of therapy that expand to create drug-resistant tumours
- Research area: Cancer
- Production details: Cells were cultured in vitro in increasing concentrations of either cisplatin or carboplatin until an increase in IC50 between two and ten-fold was achieved to reflect the resistance observed in human patients
- For Research Use Only
