We obtained the human BC cell lines MDA-MB-231, BT549, MCF-7, SKBR3 and normal breast epithelial cell line MCF-10A from Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). All BC cell lines were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) (Gibco, USA) with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) (Gibco, USA), penicillin (100 units/ml) and streptomycin (100 μg/ml) (Enpromise, China), and mycoplasma elimination reagent (Yeasen, China). MCF-10A were cultured in Mammary Epithelial Basal Medium (MEBM) (Cambrex, USA). All these cells were cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. MiR-640 mimics, miR-640 inhibitor and non-specific miR-negative control (miR-640-NC) oligo were purchased from RiboBio (Guangzhou, China).

Tissue samples were obtained from patients with BC who underwent radical mastectomy at Shanghai Tenth People’s Hospital (Shanghai, China). A total of 30 pairs of tumor and matched normal adjacent breast tissues were collected and preserved in liquid nitrogen. All clinical samples were obtained with the written informed consent of participants, and the project was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanghai Tenth People’s Hospital (No. 2020-KN174-01). BC cells (MDA-MB-231, BT549, and MCF-7) and mammary epithelial cells (MCF-10A) were purchased from the Cell Bank of Type Culture Collection of Chinese Academy and grown in mammary epithelial basal medium (Cambrex, East Rutherford, NJ, USA) and Gibco Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Enpromise, Shanghai, China). All cells were maintained in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37 °C.

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.
