https://web.expasy.org/cellosaurus/CVCL_6861
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Disease: Lung adenocarcinoma
Category: Cancer cell line
Comments: Caution: Was thought to be an OVCAR-2 derivative because its STR profile was identical to that originally reported for that cell line (PubMed=22710073). But this was shown (September 2025) not to be the correct STR profile for OVCAR-2. Meanwhile it was also noticed that the Caov-2 STR profile is identical to that of Calu-6., Population: Caucasian., Problematic cell line: Contaminated. On the basis of its STR profile it seems to be a Calu-6 derivative. Originally thought to originate from an ovarian carcinoma..

Can't find your Cell Line?
We recommend that you click next to the search bar to check some helpful tips on searches and refine your search firstly. If you want to find a specific cell line, it's easier to enter an RRID or add the vendor information to search. You can refine the search results using Facets on the left side of the search results page. If you are on the table view, you can also search in a specific column by clicking the column title and enter the keywords.
If you still could not find your cell line in the search results, please help us by registering it into the system — it's easy. Register it with the Cellosaurus. An RRID will be generated in 1-2 business days.
