Abstract excerpt
Giant cell tumour of bone (GCTB) comprises the eponymous osteoclastic multinucleated giant cells eliciting bone lysis, an H3F3A-mutated neoplastic mononucleated fibroblast-like cell population, and H3F3A wild-type mononucleated stromal cells. In this study, we characterised four new cell lines from GCTB. Furthermore, we compared the genome-wide DNA methylation profile of 13 such tumours and three further cell...
