Discrimination of fibroblast subtypes by multivariate analysis of gene expression.

International journal of cancer - 2 May 1997

Spanakis E, Brouty-Boyé D

Abstract excerpt

Fibroblasts and myofibroblasts from normal, fibrotic or tumoral breast tissues present multiple quantitative differences in gene expression even when grown in isolation. We were therefore prompted to investigate whether one could recognize various subtypes by their constitutive-gene expression pr...
