Anirban Maitra shared an article by Michel Botros et al. on X, adding the following:
“Impressive resource & dataset for those researching Cholangiocarcinoma & other Bile Duct cancers. Preprint from Francisca Vazquez, Gaddy Getz & Nabeel Bardeesy, Mass General Cancer Center, Broad Institute.
Multiparametric profiling & functional genomics of 63 BTC cell lines (including 30 new patient derived models), identifying genomic and transcription factor dependencies. Also elucidation of distinct transcriptional subtypes of cholangiocarcinoma (ductal, bi-lineage & uncommon squamous subtypes) each with distinct molecular features.”
