293T cells offer several advantages that make them ideal for histological studies:
- High Transfection Efficiency: The presence of the SV40 large T antigen significantly increases the cells' ability to incorporate foreign DNA, making them highly efficient for gene expression studies. - Stable Cell Line: These cells are easy to culture and maintain, providing a reliable and consistent model for experiments. - Versatility: 293T cells can be used in various experimental setups, including protein expression, virus production, and gene editing.
