Utilising gene expression data from the publicly available database, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), we found that basal B cell lines exhibited the highest expression of FGFR1 when compared to luminal, HER2, and basal A cell lines (corresponding to ER + , HER2 amplified and basal-like breast cancers, respectively). The gene discussed is FGFR1; the disease is breast carcinoma.
