Rat Tumor Cells
Rat tumor cell lines are a well-established model system in oncology, toxicology, neurobiology and pharmacology research due to their stable growth features and high compatibility with rat illness models. These models are essential tools for researching tumor formation, carcinogenesis, signaling pathways, treatment response and tumor-host interactions.
Our rat tumor cell bank comprises a broad spectrum of frequently used cell models from glioma, hepatoma, pituitary tumor, mammary tumor, adrenal tumor and other tumors. Representative cell lines such as C6, RG2, GH3, INS-1, N1-S1 and Walker 256 enable numerous applications including cancer biology, drug screening, endocrine research, neuro-oncology and metabolic illness studies.

FAQ
Are rat tumor cells suitable for neuro-oncology studies?
Yes. Rat glioma models such as C6 and RG2 are frequently utilised for investigating brain tumor biology, tumor invasion, angiogenesis and therapeutic response. They are also commonly employed in orthotopic animal models of glioma research.
Can rat tumor cell lines be used in endocrine and metabolic research?
Of course. Some rat tumor-derived models, such as GH3 and INS-1 cells, are widely employed in the investigations of endocrine signalling, hormone secretion, pancreatic beta-cell function, diabetes and metabolic disorders.
Are these cell lines suitable for drug screening applications?
Yes. Rat tumor cells are commonly employed in cytotoxicity test, pathway inhibition research, toxicological assessment and preclinical drug screening workflows because of their stable growth and predictable responses.
How are rat tumor cells shipped and stored?
Cells are typically supplied as cryopreserved vials and shipped on dry ice. For long-term preservation and optimal viability, storage in liquid nitrogen is recommended after receipt.
