RKO whole cell lysate is derived from the RKO cell line, a human colorectal carcinoma line valuable for studying the genetic and molecular mechanisms underpinning colorectal cancer, particularly those related to DNA mismatch repair. This lysate facilitates comprehensive studies on the cellular effects of genetic mutations common in colorectal carcinoma, such as those in the MLH1 and MSH2 genes, which play crucial roles in DNA repair processes. Researchers employ RKO lysate to explore the pathways involved in apoptosis and cell cycle arrestkey responses to DNA damage. The lysate is instrumental in examining the p53 pathway activation, commonly altered in colorectal cancers, which affects cellular outcomes like growth suppression and apoptosis. Additionally, it provides insights into the response of colorectal cancer cells to environmental stressors and chemotherapeutic agents, aiding in the understanding of cellular resilience and susceptibility. By utilizing RKO cell lysate, scientists gain detailed insights into the biochemical pathways and cellular behaviors characteristic of colorectal cancer cells in a research context, focusing purely on advancing basic scientific knowledge in cancer biology.
