The Mouse Fap (Fibro/adipogenic Protein) gene encodes a serine protease that plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cell differentiation, particularly in the transition from fibroblasts to adipocytes. Fap is involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix components and has been implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including tissue remodeling, wound healing, and cancer progression. The expression of Fap is tightly regulated and is influenced by factors such as hormones and growth factors, making it a significant target for therapeutic interventions in diseases characterized by abnormal cell differentiation and tissue repair. The LL/2 cell line, derived from mouse mammary gland epithelial cells, has been engineered to stably express the Mouse Fap gene. This stable cell line provides a valuable model for studying the role of Fap in cell differentiation and its potential as a biomarker for cancer progression. Researchers can utilize the LL/2 Fap stable cell line to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying Fap's function, its interaction with other cellular proteins, and its response to various stimuli. The cell line also serves as a platform for screening compounds that may modulate Fap activity, offering potential therapeutic strategies for diseases where Fap plays a critical role.
The Mouse Fap Stable Cell Line - LL/2 is a cell line derived from mouse mammary epithelial cells. Its applications in research are varied: Mammary Gland Development: This cell line can be used to study the molecular mechanisms underlying mammary gland development and differentiation, which is important for understanding breast biology and the development of breast cancer. Cell Differentiation: The LL/2 cell line is known for its ability to differentiate into alveolar-like structures, making it a valuable tool for studying the process of epithelial differentiation and the factors that regulate it. Drug Testing: The cell line can be used to test the effects of various compounds on mammary epithelial cells, which can help in the development of drugs for breast cancer and other diseases affecting the mammary gland.
Customer Q&As
What is the application of the Mouse Fap Stable Cell Line - LL/2 in drug toxicity studies?

A: In drug toxicity studies, the Mouse Fap Stable Cell Line - LL/2 can be used to assess the potential hepatotoxicity of drugs.
