We would like this resource to be comprehensive and widely available to those who are interested in research. It is our desire to provide interested researchers with as much validated information as we can to expand the collaborative CCA research community. If you are aware of available resources not listed, please contact us.

A number of human biliary tract cancer cell lines have been reported in the literature, including cell lines derived from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and gall bladder cancer. The table lists commonly used biliary tract cell lines available from repositories. Also listed is an immortalized but non-transformed human bile duct-derived cell line.
