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..
