Cell Culture Laboratory

In the Cell Culture Laboratory, studies are being made to develop anticancer drugs in numerous cancer cell lines. To investigate the mechanism of action of drug-carrying substances, target genes are repressed by retrovirus plasmids to study the signal pathways in the cell.

Furthermore, neuron culture is performed, and the molecular mechanism of neuron differentiation is studied. Cellular modelling of autism is performed. Biopsy studies are also performed in mammalian cells.
