Cellosaurus MDA-MB-231br (CVCL_A0YY)

[Text version]
Cell line name MDA-MB-231br
Synonyms MDA-231BR
Accession CVCL_A0YY
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: MDA-MB-231br (RRID:CVCL_A0YY)
Comments Group: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line.
Population: Caucasian.
Characteristics: Metastatic to brain. Established after injection of the parent cell line in the left ventricle of the heart of female nude mice and retrieving the brain metastatic cells and repeating this procedure 6 times.
Derived from site: Metastatic; Pleural effusion; UBERON=UBERON_0000175.
