“…Patient-derived GBM cell lines (N = 13; HROG02, HROG04, HROG05, HROG06, HROG10, HROG15, HROG24, HROG36, HROG38, HROG52, HROG63, HROG73, HROG75) and HNSCC cell lines (N = 6; FADU, Detroit-562, Cal-33, PE/CA/PJ-15, UT-SCC-14, UT-SCC-15) were either established and basically characterized in our lab or originally obtained from the German collection of cell cultures (DSMZ; Braunschweig, Germany). UT-SCC14 and UT-SCC15 cells were kindly provided by Prof. R. Grenman [University of Turku, Finland (33)]. All cells were routinely cultured in our lab and maintained in full medium: Dulbecco's modified Eagle Medium/HamsF12 supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, glutamine (2 mmol/L), and antibiotics (medium and supplements were purchased from PAA, Cölbe, Germany).…”
