MKL-1 is a human skin neuroendocrine carcinoma cell line that was originally isolated from the lymph node of a 26-year-old patient with Merkel cell carcinoma. MKL-1 exhibits epithelial-like morphology and suspension culture properties. This cell line is aneuploid; it displays chromosomal counts within the hyperdiploid range. MKL-1 is tumorigenic and metastatic.

Derived from metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma, MKL-1 cells are used to study neuroendocrine tumor biology. They enable the exploration of tumorigenesis, drug responsiveness, metastasis, and cellular signaling in skin cancers. Their origin from metastatic lesions makes them especially useful for investigating cancer spread and for screening targeted therapies and chemotherapy agents.
