Application

Human SW480 cell line has been used to study the antiproliferative effects of F. mughlea Pesmen on cancer cells. It has also been used as an in vitro model to study key cellular processes required for metastasis. The cell line is used to study the effects of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) pathway and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) on the growth of cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Derived from a grade 3-4 colon adenocarcinoma. The initial cultures contained a mixture of epithelial and bipolar cells, but subsequently epithelial cells predominated. The cells produce CEA.
