MCF-7 cells were cultured at 37 °C with 5% CO2 in E-MEM with L-glutamine and phenol red (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., Osaka, Japan) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Inc., Logan, UT, USA), 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), 1.0 mM sodium pyruvate solution (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), and 1% MEM non-essential amino acid solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). MDA-MB-453 cells were cultured at 37 °C without CO2 in Leibovitz′s L-15 Medium with L-glutamine, phenol red, and sodium pyruvate (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Inc.) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.).
The hyperthermia treatment was based on our previous study [11 (link)]. The MCF-7 cells were incubated at 42 °C with 5% CO2 for 1 h using a standard incubator, and the MDA-MB-453 cells were incubated in the same way, but without CO2.

Culturing of Breast Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The human immortalized normal breast cell line, MCF10A (ATCC), was cultured in DMEM/F12 with 5% horse serum (Gibco), 0.5 μg/ml hydrocortisone (Sigma), 100 ng/ml cholera toxin (Bio Academia), 10 μg/ml insulin (Sigma), and 20 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (PeproTech). The human estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cell line, MCF7 (ATCC), was grown in RPMI 1640 containing 10% FBS (Corning). LTED cells were established by culturing MCF7 cells in phenol red-free RPMI 1640 (Wako), containing 4% dextran-coated charcoal-stripped FBS (Thermo Fisher Science), for 3–8 months. The cells were cultured at 37 °C with a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere.

HLC-1 cells were purchased from Riken Cell Bank (Saitama, Japan). NCI-H2347, NCI-H1975 and MCF-7 cells were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). HLC-1 cells were grown in Ham's F12 medium (087–08335; Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., Osaka, Japan). NCI-H2347 and NCI-H1975 cells were grown in RPMI-1640 medium (R8758; Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany), MCF-7 cells were grown in DMEM medium (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.). All media contained 10% fetal bovine serum (Nichirei Biosciences, Tokyo, Japan) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany). Cells were cultured at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2.

Culturing Breast Cancer and Kidney Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human embryonic kidney cells 293 T and human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 were purchased from ATCC, and human breast cancer cell lines SKBR3 and BT474 were gifted by Dr. S. Hayashi (Tohoku University, Miyagi, Japan). The cells were cultured in DMEM (Wako) or RPMI 1640 (Wako) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS (Biowest), 100 units/ml penicillin G and 100 µg/ml streptomycin. For experiments evaluating the effect of 17β-estradiol (estradiol, Sigma-Aldrich), the MCF-7 cells were cultured for two days in phenol red-free DMEM (PRF-DMEM, Wako) containing 10% heat-inactivated FBS stripped of steroids by absorption to dextran-coated charcoal (DCC-FBS, Biological Industries). The cells were then cultured in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37 ℃.

Human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA). MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 were cultured in RPMI-1640 and DMEM medium (high glucose) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS and antibiotics (100 U/ml of penicillin and 100 μg/ml of streptomycin (Wako Pure Chemical Industries)) in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere at 37°C, respectively. In experiments using inhibitors, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with respective inhibitor at the indicated concentrations for 30 min prior to treatment with indicated concentrations of Helle, in the presence or absence of respective inhibitor for an additional 48 h. Helle and Areno were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and no cytotoxicity of the final concentrations of DMSO (0.02%) was observed in the current experimental system.

MCF-7 (breast cancer) and Ishikawa (endometrial cancer) ER-positive cancer cell lines were obtained from the European Collection of Cell Cultures (ECACC, Salisbury, UK).

Ishikawa cells were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 5% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and 2 mM L-glutamine under the same atmospheric conditions as MCF-7 cells. Cells were plated onto a 24-well culture plate at 5 × 10 4 cells/well and allowed to attach overnight. The next day, the medium was replaced with phenol red-free DMEM (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) supplemented with 10% charcoal-stripped FBS (Equitech Bio, Kerrville, TX, USA), 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and 2 mM L-glutamine, and incubated for a day. Test chemicals were dissolved in DMSO and applied to cells at final DMSO concentrations of less than 0.1%. After 24 hr of chemical treatment, cells were collected and used immediately in downstream assays or stored at -80°C until use.

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.
