CT-2A Mouse Glioma Cell Line

Description

• General description: Glioblastomas are among the most aggressive forms of cancer, associated with low treatment efficacy and poor survival. Recurring glioblastomas are often resistant to first-line chemotherapies (1). There is much interest in studying drug-resistant forms of glioblastomas in the effort to develop effective therapies.References:1. Weller M, Cloughesy T, Perry JR, and Wick W (2013).
