  • * To explore the applications and cell transfer methods for HAC technology.

Main Methods:

  • * Review of existing literature on HAC development and applications.
  • * Analysis of HAC construction strategies.
  • * Examination of techniques for HAC transfer between cells.

Main Results:

  • * HACs offer ultra-high genetic capacity and stable self-maintenance.
  • * Various HAC types have been developed with distinct features.
  • * Cell transfer remains a technically challenging aspect of HAC technology.

Conclusions:

  • * HACs are versatile tools with significant potential in genetic engineering and therapy.
  • * Further optimization of HAC construction and transfer is essential for broader application.
  • * This review provides a comprehensive overview of HAC technology and its future prospects.
