Vero cell line is derived from the kidney of the African green monkey (Cercopithecus Aethiops). These cells exhibit an epithelial-like morphology and grow in a monolayer, displaying anchorage-dependent growth in vitro. A key feature of Vero cells is their defective type I interferon response—they lack functional interferon-alpha (IFN-α) and interferon-beta (IFN-β) genes due to a chromosomal deletion.Vero cells have a pseudodiploid karyotype with known chromosomal abnormalities, including the deletion of the type I interferon gene cluster on chromosome 12. This deficiency makes them highly susceptible to viral infections, as they cannot mount a robust innate immune defense against viruses . Consequently, Vero cells are extensively used for viral propagation, including the cultivation of polio, rabies, influenza, and SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Vero cells are non-tumorigenic in vivo but exhibit continuous proliferation in vitro, making them suitable for long-term viral production.

Vero cell line can be used for virology research and vaccine development. In the field of vaccine production, the Vero cell line is the core platform for the preparation of a variety of viral vaccines, including polio vaccine, rabies vaccine, rotavirus vaccine, and COVID-19 inactivated vaccine.
