Furthermore, we analyzed correlation between the IC50 concentrations of paclitaxel and the mRNA levels of OTUD7B, DSTNP2 and VCAN in a panel of TNBC cell lines BT-20, BT-549, HCC-1143, HCC-1806, HCC-1937, HCC-1954, HCC-30, HCC-70, Hs578T, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-436 and MDA-MB-468 after treatment with or without paclitaxel at the respective 10-fold IC50 concentrations. Here, OTUD7B is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
