Description | KP-4 is a human pancreatic ductal cell carcinoma cell line derived from human ascites. KP-4 secretes parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP), and it can be a useful system to study the regulation of PTHrP production and its pathophysiological roles. KP-4 is a highly metastatic cell line compared to other pancreatic cancer cell lines, and it can metastasize to other tissues, such as liver, lung, etc. Although it is thought to be epithelial-like in morphology, KP-4 presents a low E-cadherin and high vimentin mRNA levels under 2D culture conditions.

Application | FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY KP-4 can be used to investigate that how cancer cell escapes apoptosis. It was found that PI3K inhibitor can inactivate Akt, resulting in inhibition of cell proliferation in human pancreatic ductal carcinoma cell lines, PSN-1[a], PANC-1[b], and KP-4, and cell cycle arrested in the G1 phase with the PI3K inhibitor. Subsequent studies, using KP-4 cells, can give more details to indicate if PI3K-AKT signaling pathway supports cell proliferation in human pancreatic ductal cell carcinoma cells. Otherwise, KP-4 can be applied in the field of identifying mutants and essential gene profiles of human pancreatic carcinoma for screening target genes and developing RNA drugs. | |||
