Breast cancer cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and HepG2 from LGC Standards GmbH and cultured at 37°C, 5% CO2 in a humidified atmosphere. Cell line identity was authenticated by STR profiling, and all cells were verified to be mycoplasma‐free (Eurofins Genomics). HepG2 (RRID: CVCL_0027) and MCF7 (RRID: CVCL_0031) were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) High Glucose with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), both from Cytiva/HyClone. Insulin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to 10 μg/mL for MCF7. BT‐474 (CVCL_0179) and T47D (CVCL_0553) were cultured in RPMI‐1640 (Cytiva/HyClone) with 10% FBS (Cytiva/HyClone). For experiments involving stimulation with ER ligands, cells were seeded in phenol red‐free DMEM (Cytiva/HyClone) with 2.5% charcoal‐stripped, dextran‐treated FBS (CSS‐FBS, Cytiva/HyClone).

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.
