Huh-7 or HepG2 cells: which is the better model for studying human apolipoprotein-B100 assembly and secretion?[S]

Apolipoprotein-B100 (apoB100) is the essential protein for the assembly and secretion of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) from liver. The hepatoma HepG2 cell line has been the cell line of choice for the study of synthesis and secretion of human apoB-100. Despite the general use of HepG2 cells t...
