Tissue specificity is important for this study, so the identity of the cell line used is critical. Unfortunately HEp-2 cells do not come from laryngeal squamous cancer; HEp-2 is cross-contaminated with HeLa, a cervical carcinoma cell line. For a list of known cross-contaminated cell lines, see http://iclac.org/databases/cross-contaminations/.
