What's in a name? A great deal, when it comes to cell lines. KB, one of the tumor cell lines used in this paper, is cross-contaminated and is actually HeLa. It is not a nasopharyngeal epidermoid cell line. For a database of cross-contaminated or otherwise misidentified cell lines, see http://iclac.org/databases/cross-contaminations/.
