HighQC™ Human (Parental) Melanoma Cancer Stem Cell

Description

HighQC™ Human (Parental) Melanoma Cancer Stem Cells are tumor-initiating cells isolated from primary human melanoma tissues. These cells represent a rare population within the tumor that exhibits self-renewal, multipotency, and high tumorigenic potential. Morphologically, the cells are small to medium in size with a spindle-shaped or polygonal appearance. They express key melanoma stem cell markers such as CD133 and ALDH1. These human melanoma cancer stem cells possess the ability to differentiate into melanocytic and mesenchymal-like lineages under appropriate stimuli, contributing to intratumoral heterogeneity and therapeutic resistance. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, syphilis, mycoplasma, fungi, yeast, and bacteria.
