Furthermore, from the published tumor dataset (GSE58135), we also found that ADAM9 mRNA expression was also significantly increased in TNBC cell lines (MDA-MB-468, HCC-38, SUM-159, HCC-1599, MDA-MB-436, BT-549, MDA-MB-231, HCC-70, HCC-1143, HCC-1937, SUM-149, MDA-MB-157, BT-20, and SUM-102) compared with non-TNBC cell lines (ZR-75-1, BT-474, MCF-7, T-47-D, SKBR3, MDA-MB-134, MDA-MB-361, HCC-1954, ZR-75-30, MDA-MB-453, and HCC-1569) (Figure 1E). Here, ADAM9 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
