Evidence for the Existence of Triple-Negative Variants in the MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cell Population
The MCF-7 line, derived in 1973 from a malignant pleural effusion, is one of the most commonly used culture models for human breast cancer. Despite its long history, MCF-7 is a surprisingly heterogeneous line. We previously showed that if MCF-7 cells were cultured for a prolonged period either in th...
