Polio. Not long after Henriettaâs death, planning began for a HeLa factoryâa massive operation that would grow to produce trillions of HeLa cells each week. It was built for one reason: to stop polio.
HeLa cells, as they are called, have made vital contributions to the development of drugs for herpes, leukemia, influenza, and Parkinson's disease. The cells have been used in studies on everything from lactose digestion to mosquito mating.
