Parental and ERβ1-expressing MCF7 cells [12 (link)] and doxycycline-inducible Hs578T-ERβ1 cells [8 (link)] were cultured as previously described. Doxycycline-inducible ERβ1-expressing MDA-MB-231 cell lines were established using the T-REx™ System (Invitrogen) as previously described [9 (link)] and were maintained in DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% AA, 5 mg/L blasticidin S and 500 mg/L zeocin. Charcoal-stripped fetal bovine serum (CS-FBS) was purchased from Gemini Bio-Products (West Sacramento, CA). 17β-estradiol (E2), (Z)-tamoxifen, (Z)-4-hydroxy-tamoxifen and doxycycline (Dox) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). (Z)-endoxifen was synthesized by the National Cancer Institute (Bethesda, MD). The ERβ-specific agonists; DPN, WAY200070, FERb 033 and Liquiritigenin, as well as the pure ER antagonist ICI 182,780, were purchased from Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, United Kingdom).

All solvents used for solid‐phase extraction, HPLC analysis/purification and MS‐based experiments were LC‐MS grade from either Sigma‐Aldrich or VWR Chemicals. Authentic standards for LC‐HRESIMS quantification and molecule identification through LC‐HRESIMS and LC‐UV/vis were purchased from different suppliers: p‐coumaric acid (Sigma Aldrich, USA), naringenin (Sigma Aldrich, USA), dihydrokaempferol (Sigma Aldrich, USA), kaempferol (Cayman Chemical, USA), apigenin (Extrasynthese, Genay, France), 2‐hydroxynaringenin (Ambinter, Orléans, France), isoliquiritigenin (Sigma Aldrich, USA), liquiritigenin (Tocris Bioscience, Bristol, UK), (2R,3R)‐garbanzol (BioBioPha, Kunming, Yunnan, China), (2S,3S)‐garbanzol (AnalytiCon Discovery, Potsdam, Germany), resokaempferol (Extrasynthese), fustin (Biosynth Carbosynth, Compton, UK), butin (ChemFaces, Wuhan, China), 7,4′‐dihydroxyflavone (Extrasynthese, France), quercetin (Cayman Chemical) and dihydroquercetin (Sigma Aldrich).

Estradiol was from Sigma (St Louis, MO). Liquiritigenin and iso-Liquiritigenin, and the antiestrogen ICI 182,780 were from Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, UK). All compounds were checked for identity and purity by mass spectrometry and NMR. MCF-7 cells (ATCC) were cultured in DMEM, Dulbecco’s Minimal Essential Medium (Gibco/Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY), supplemented with 5% calf serum (HyClone, Logan, UT) and 100 μg/ml penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), as previously described [7 (link), 8 (link)]. For estrogen-free experiments, the cells were seeded in phenol red-free DMEM (Gibco/Life Technologies) plus 5% charcoal-dextran-treated calf serum for 3 days before treatments with compounds were initiated. HepG2 cells (ATCC) and HepG2 cells stably expressing ERα (HepG2+ERα cells, kindly provided by David J. Shapiro, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) were grown as described [9 (link), 10 (link)]. The siRNA experiments for knockdown of the endogenous ERα in MCF-7 cells were performed as previously described and resulted in knockdown of ERα mRNA and protein by greater than 95% [11 (link)]. siERα sequences (Dharmacon, Lafayette, CO) were forward, 5′-UCAUCGCAUUCCUUGCAAAdTdT-3′, and reverse, 5′-UUUGCAAGGAAUGCGAUGAdTdT-3′ [11 (link)].

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.
