  1. ATCC American Tissue Culture Center ID. Molecular subtype and marker expression status are from Neve et al. 2006 [46]: Estrogen receptor presence or absence (ER+/−), Progesterone receptor presence or absence (PR+/−), HER2 overexpression (HER2+), and TP53 mutation (TP53M). EZH2 and H3K27me3 were shown to be elevated compared to non-metastatic fibroblasts (a) [60], LNCaP (b) [59], MCF10A (c) [8, 61, 62], and HMEC (d)
