Serous adenocarcinoma
OVSAHO is a human ovarian carcinoma cell line established from the abdominal metastatic tumor of a 56-year-old female with serous papillary adenocarcinoma. OVSAHO expresses several cytokeratins (CKs) peptides. OVSAHO cells are transplantable in both nude and immune-competent mice for intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, and orthotopic heterotransplantation.
OVSAHO cells and their xenograft models are used as experimental platform for studying high-grade serous adenocarcinoma (HGSOC). HGSOC grows rapidly and spread early to other tissues within the peritoneal cavity, and is therefore regarded as one of the most lethal forms of human ovarian cancer. The OVSAHO cells are used to develop strategies for early diagnosis and to screen potential anticancer agents targeting HGSOC.
