    GlossaryImmortalized Cell Line

    cells modified to proliferate indefinitely in culture

    An immortalized cell line is a population of cells from a multicellular organism that has been modified to proliferate indefinitely in culture. This is achieved by introducing specific genes or by other means that prevent the normal cellular aging process, allowing researchers to study biological processes over extended periods without the cells dying.
