ABSTRACT: Unlabelled
Experimental models of human tissues and disease phenotypes frequently rely upon immortalized cell lines, which are easily accessible and simple to use due to their infinite capability of cell division. For decades, cell lines have been used to investigate cellular mechanisms of disease and the efficacy of drugs, most prominently for human cancers. However, the large body of knowledge with respect to human cell lines exists primarily in an unstructured fashion, that is, as free text in the scientific literature. Here we present CellLineMiner, a novel text mining-based web database that provides a comprehensive view of human cell line knowledge. The application offers a simple search in all indexed cell lines, accompanied by a rapid display of all identified literature associations. The CellLineMiner is intended to serve as a knowledge resource companion to the cellular model systems used in biomedical research.Availability
