To determine whether the reactivation of methylation - silenced genes by EGCG is a general phenomenon that also occurs in other cell lines, we studied the effects of EGCG treatment on the methylation status and mRNA levels of p16INK4a or RARβ in three other human cancer cell lines (Fig. 3C) ⇓.

And they are now even contaminating other cell lines (which could perhaps be interpreted as just karma). (myscizzle.com)
Their method, called PRISM, uses a molecular barcoding system to test potential drug compounds on cancer and other cell lines at an unprecedented scale and speed. (broadinstitute.org)
