HeLa cells
HeLa cells are the first immortal human cell line, originally derived in 1951 from a cervical cancer biopsy taken from Henrietta Lacks—an African‑American mother of five—without her consent. These epithelial-like cells exhibit remarkable longevity and rapid proliferation, with a characteristic hyper‑triploid karyotype averaging 82 chromosomes (ranging from 70 to 164), high aneuploidy (100%), and a small telocentric chromosome found in 98% of cells.
