4-11

Cell Line Origin

HeLa, genetic modification, human androgen receptor, firefly luciferase reporter gene, MMTV promoter

Cell Line Description

4-11 is a HeLa cell line stably transfected with two constructs: the human androgen receptor (hAR) expression construct; a firefly luciferase reporter gene under the control of the MMTV promoter. 4-11 can be used to detect androgenic activity of chemicals.
