Synonymous entries in column 'cell.line'

[hansenp]

There seem to be some synonymous entries in the column cell.line. For example, there are 273 rows with HCT116and 42 rows with HCT 116. There are similar cases for HeLa and A549 cell lines.

Possibly the same standard identifiers as used here could be used.

thanks for picking this up, I have revised the parsing and think I have fixed all of this
