Study hepatocarcinogenesis using HTC cells, a chemically induced rat hepatoma model suitable for toxicology and liver cancer-related research studies.
HTC is a rat hepatoma carcinoma cell line originally derived from ascitic fluid of a metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma induced chemically in a male Buffalo rat. It displays epithelial-like morphology and grows as an adherent monolayer under standard conditions. Cytogenetic analysis shows a hypertriploid karyotype typical of malignant transformation in rodent tumor models. HTC cells have been used historically to investigate steroid hormone effects on enzymatic induction, metabolism, and growth control given their retention of liver-derived pathways. They also support studies in tumorigenicity and enzyme function. As a rodent tumor model, HTC cell line provides a system to explore in vitro mechanisms of tumor cell growth and metabolic regulation within hepatoma contexts. The cells undergo rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and are rigorously tested to ensure they are free of contamination from Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

HTC cells are used as an in vitro hepatoma model for investigating tumor cell proliferation, enzymatic responses to steroid hormones, and metabolic regulation in liver carcinoma contexts. They support tumorigenicity and enzymatic studies, including research on growth control and response to metabolic modulators.
