Establishment and characterization of a novel hilar cholangiocarcinoma cell line, CBC3T-1.
Human Cell 2023 November 16
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a group of malignant heterogeneous cancer arising from the biliary tree. The tumor is characterized by insidious onset, high degree of malignancy, poor prognosis, and high recurrence rate. Immortalized cancer cell lines are the best and easiest models for in vitro cancer research. Here, we established a naturally immortalized highly tumorigenic hilar cholangiocarcinoma (hCCA) cell line, CBC3T-1. The CBC3T-1 cell line was cultured for over 60 passages. Thorough analysis showed that CBC3T-1 cells share characteristics similar to original tumor cells from patients with cholangiocarcinoma and display a stable phenotype, including features of epithelial origin, stem cell-like properties, as well as a high invasive and migratory capability and tumorigenicity in mice. Furthermore, this cell line showed the best sensitivity to paclitaxel, followed by gemcitabine. RNA sequencing and whole‑exome sequencing showed that cancer-associated pathways and somatic mutations played a dominant role in the development of CCA. We established and characterized a new hCCA cell line, CBC3T-1, which contributes to a better understanding of bile duct cancer, and can be used to study tumorigenesis and progression and the role of anticancer drugs.
