Comparative analysis and integrative classification of NCI60 cell lines and primary tumors using gene expression profiling data

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: NCI60 cell lines are derived from cancers of 9 tissue origins and have been invaluable in vitro models for cancer research and anti-cancer drug screen. Although extensive studies have been carried out to assess the molecular features of NCI60 cell lines related to cancer and their sensitivities to more than 100,000 chemical compounds, it remains unclear if and how well these cell lines represent or...
