Gene: TGFA
Official Full Name: transforming growth factor alphaprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a growth factor that is a ligand for the epidermal growth factor receptor, which activates a signaling pathway for cell proliferation, differentiation and development. This protein may act as either a transmembrane-bound ligand or a soluble ligand. This gene has been associated with many types of cancers, and it may also be involved in some cases of cleft lip/palate. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

TGFA Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically designed cellular models generated to investigate the biological functions of the Transforming Growth Factor Alpha (TGFA) gene. TGFA plays a pivotal role in the stimulation of epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, making these knockout cell lines invaluable for studying its implications in various physiological and pathological processes, including cancer progression and tissue regeneration.
The key function of TGFA Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to eliminate the expression of the TGFA gene. Utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology for precise gene editing, these cell lines facilitate in-depth functional studies by providing researchers with a controlled environment to examine the consequences of TGFA loss on cell behavior, signaling pathways, and overall cellular phenotypes. This state-of-the-art cellular model enables a clear understanding of TGFA's role in diseases, particularly in cancer biology, where aberrations in growth factor signaling can lead to tumorigenicity.
The scientific importance of TGFA Gene Knockout Cell Lines is particularly salient in both research and clinical settings, where they are used to elucidate the mechanisms of tumor development, investigate drug responses, and identify potential therapeutic targets. Their application extends to drug discovery and development, where these cell lines serve as platforms for screening and validating new therapeutic agents that target TGFA-related pathways.
What sets TGFA Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative models is their specificity, reliability, and ease of use. Unlike transient RNA interference methods, which can yield variable results, the stable knockout approach ensures consistent gene suppression with minimal off-target effects. Furthermore, these cell lines can be easily integrated into existing experimental workflows, maximizing researcher efficiency.
For researchers and clinicians focused on cancer biology and translational research, TGFA Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide a robust tool for uncovering the complexities of growth factor signaling pathways. They enable groundbreaking discoveries that can lead to advancements in therapeutic interventions and precision medicine approaches. Our company's commitment to delivering high-quality biological products, coupled with our expertise in gene editing technologies, positions us as a leader in providing essential tools for the scientific community.
