Parental cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HCC-1428, T47D) were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC; Manassas, VA, USA), and LentiX cells were obtained from Clontech (Mountain View, CA, USA). MCF-7, HCC-1428, T47D, and LentiX cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS (HyClone Laboratories; Logan, UT, USA). MCF-7/LTED cells were a gift from Matthew Ellis (Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, USA) (45 (link)). HCC-1428/LTED cells were generated through long-term (>1 yr) culture in phenol-red-free DMEM with 10% dextran/charcoal-treated FBS (DCC-FBS; HyClone Laboratories) as previously described (46 (link)). LTED cells were maintained in phenol-red-free DMEM + 10% DCC-FBS supplemented with 2 mM GlutaMAX (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), and were passaged using phenol-red-free 0.25% trypsin plus 2.21 mM EDTA (Corning, Tewksbury, MA, USA). Cell lines were verified by STR genotyping at the University of Vermont Cancer Center DNA Analysis Facility and confirmed to be free of mycoplasma (Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit; ATCC). Assays were performed using cells cultured for <3 months thereafter.

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.
