The breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 (triple negative), HCC1937 (triple negative), MCF-7 (ER-positive) and SK-BR3 (HER2-positive) were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) (Manassas, VA). MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM), HCC1937 cells were cultured in RPMI140 and SK-BR3 cells were cultured in MaCoy's 5A with 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. The cells were incubated at 37°C under 5% CO2. The compounds used in this study were purchased from the following vendors: Wortmannin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), GDC-0941 (LC Laboratories, Woburn, MA), Perifosine (LC Laboratories, Woburn, MA), Everolimus (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), NVP-BEZ235 (LC Laboratories, Woburn, MA), BKM120 (Chemie Tek, Indianapolis, IN), XL147 (Chemie Tek, Indianapolis, IN), LGK974 (StemRd, Burlingame, CA), and WNT3A (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN).

ACT in B6 nude mice, in vivo vaccination, PLX4720 treatment, anti-VEGF blocking antibody treatment, and in vivo Bioluminescence Imaging were performed as previously described (5 (link), 27 (link)). GSK2636771 and BKM120 (Chemie Tek) were suspended in 1% (w/v) methylcellulose and administered to mice daily by oral gavage at a dose of 30mg/kg and 60mg/kg respectively. For the spontaneous tumor model, Tyr:CreER; PTENlox/lox; BRAF V600E/+ mice on a C57BL/6 background (6–8 weeks of age) were treated with 4-hydroxytamoxifen to induce the expression of Cre as previously described (11 (link)). The anti-mouse PD-1 antibody (29F.1A12, Biolegend) was intraperitoneally injected on days 0, 2 and 4 at a dose of 100 μg/per mouse. The relevant solvent and control rat IgG antibody (Sigma) were administered to control animals.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
