Establishment and characterization of a new spontaneously immortalized ER−/PR−/HER2+ human breast cancer cell line, DHSF-BR16
Abstract Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) constitutes the most frequent malignant cancer endangering women’s health. In this study, a new spontaneously immortalized breast cancer cell line, DHSF-BR16 cells, was isolated from the primary IDC of a 74-years old female patient, treated with neoadjuvant c...
