Are Calu-6 not really NSCLC cells?

22 August 2022 0 4K Report

I've been doing research and noticing that Calu-6 aren't exactly considered to be of lung tissue origin anymore. The ATCC has them as designation "unknown" and some list it as "probanly lung."

Does anyone have any information about this or know what has caused this reconsideration of histopathology? If it isn't NSCLC then what is it?
