Establishing Tamoxifen-Resistant Breast Cancer Cells

MCF-7/TAM and T47D/TAM breast cancer cells resistant to tamoxifen were established according to the reported method (53 (link)). In brief, MCF-7 and T47D were seeded and cultured for 24 h and then changed media to 5% charcoal-stripped fetal calf serum (Sigma-Aldrich) in phenol red-free DMEM and RPMI1640 medium, respectively, and culture for 24 h. Then 0.1 μM 4-OH tamoxifen (TAM) (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the medium. The cells were continuously treated with gradually increasing doses of TAM for 8 months. MCF-7/TAM and T47D/TAM TamR breast cancer cells were finally obtained when cells can tolerate 1 μM TAM.

Protein Detection in Serum-Depleted Cells

Protein samples were separated in SDS-PAGE gel and transferred either onto 0.2μm PVDF membrane for detection of the E2-E10 protein product, or 0.2μm nitrocellulose membrane for other proteins. The dilutions of primary antibodies used were 1:250-1:1000 for rabbit anti-CCDC170 (GeneTex), 1:1000 for mouse anti-cMet and rabbit anti-Gab1 (Cell Signaling) and other antibodies. Antibodies were obtained from Santa Cruz (cyclin D1), Thermo Fisher (ERα), Abcam (PAK1), Millipore (Src), and Cell Signaling (all other molecules). To study the fusion-driven signaling in the condition of serum withdrawal and endocrine treatment, cells were maintained in phenol red-free medium for 48h, serum-starved for 24h, and then treated for 20 minutes with vehicle (Ethanol), 17β-estradiol (E2) (1nM) or Tam (100nM). 4-OH tamoxifen (Tam) and 17β-estradiol (E2) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich.

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.
