Human papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cell line. This cell line has been authenticated by STR profiling and does not match any of the over 8,000 cell lines in the publicly available STR databases from ATCC, DSMZ, JCRB, and RIKEN, thereby excluding the possibility of contamination by common cell lines. Since no comparable STR profile data for the KTC-1 cell line has been published, we preliminarily identify this cell as likely being KTC-1. The STR test results for KTC-1 are as follows:

D5S818: 11, 12;
D13S317: 11, 12;
D7S820: 11, 11;
D16S539: 12, 12;
VWA: 14, 17;
TH01: 9, 9;
AMEL: X, Y;
TPOX: 11, 11;
CSF1PO: 10, 12.
