Microarray-based gene expression data from BPLER tumor explants

ABSTRACT: The gene expression of 6 different mouse xenografts initiated by BPLER cells analyzed by microarray. Basal-like triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) have poor prognosis. To study the basal-like transcriptional profile of tumors transformed by defined genetic elements, the human breast epithelial cell line BPLER was injected into NOD/SCID mice. The resulting tumors were excised for expression analysis. Keywords: breast cancer, BPLER, metastasis, tumor stem cells, tumor initiating cells, breast adenocarcinoma BPLER cells were derived from human primary breast epithelial cells propagated in WIT medium (Ince et al, Cancer Cell, 2007). These cells were transformed with hTERT, SV40 early region and hRASV12 by retroviral transduction. BPLER have a TNBC-like phenotype in vitro and are highly enr
