MDA-MB-231 (Sigma Aldrich, Vienna, Austria), HaCat (ATCC, US), MCF10A (LGC Promochem, US), A375 (ATCC, US), SW-872 (ATCC, US), 93T449 (ATCC, US), SW1353 (CLS, Germany) and juvenile fibroblasts fresh established from foreskin samples were obtained from Division of Biomedical Research (BMF), Medical University of Graz, Austria. HeLa (ATCC®, Guernsey, UK), fibroblast, HaCat, SW1353 and A375 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 2 mM glutamine, 1% PS (100 U/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin) and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). MCF10A were cultured in DMEM with single quot kit suppl. Gr, 5% Horse Serum, 20 ng/mL hEGF, 0.5 μg/ml hydrocortison, 100 ng/ml choleratoxin, 10 μg/ml insulin and 2 mM glutamine. MDA-MB-231 were maintained in DMEM Hams F12 with 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine and 1% PS. SW872 were cultured in DMEM Hams F12 supplemented with 5% FBS, 2 mM glutamine and 1% PS. 93T449 were cultured with RPMI-1640 with 10% FBS, 2 mM glutamine, 10mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 1mM sodium pyruvate and 1% PS.
Cells were maintained in a humidified incubator at 37°C with 5% CO2. HeLa cells were treated for up to 3 days with AdOx (40 μM), MS023 (10 μM), GSK715 (2 μM), GSK591 (1 μM) and DMSO, before cell extracts were prepared.

MCF-10A Breast Cell Culture and Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The MCF-10A breast epithelial cells (ATCC cat#CRL-10317, RRID:CVCL_0598; LGC Standards, Barcelona, Spain) were cultured in a DMEM/F12 culture medium and supplemented with the following compounds: 20 ng/mL epidermal growth factor; 2 mM of stable L-glutamine, 3.5 μg/mL human insulin, 0.5 μg/mL hydrocortisone, 10% heat-inactivated FBS, and 1% of a solution composed of penicillin/streptomycin. Cells were maintained in a humidified environment comprising 95% air and 5% CO2, at a temperature of 37 °C. Cell subculturing was performed twice a week using trypsinization (0.25% trypsin/0.025% EDTA), ensuring that cells were maintained below a 90% confluence. Regular mycoplasma contamination tests were conducted on the cells.
Prior to each experimental assay, MCF-10A cells underwent trypsinization and were centrifuged at 457× g for five minutes at 20 °C. Cells were seeded onto 96- or 6-well plates (TPP, Biotecnómica) at various densities, according to the experimental assay. Depending on the experimental objectives, cells were exposed to isoprenaline (0.1–10 μM), adrenaline (0.1–10 μM), salbutamol (0.1–10 μM), UK 14,304 (0.1–10 μM), or propranolol (10 μM), either individually or in combination, and then incubated for up to 72 h. Control experiments included cells treated with the vehicle alone (0.1% DMSO) in each assay.

Cell culture MDA-MB-231 (BCC), RAW264.7 macrophages and MCF10A were acquired from ATCC (LGC Standards GmbH, Germany). BCC and macrophages were grown in tissue culture treated petri dishes in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1X penicillin-streptomycin, 1X L-glutamine and in non-treated petri dishes in RPMI supplemented with 5% FBS, 1X penicillin-streptomycin, 1X L-glutamine, respectively, at 37 0 C, 5% CO 2 . BCC and macrophages were trypsinized and mechanically collected for sub-culturing, respectively. MCF10A were cultured as previously described [49] .

Culturing Breast Cancer Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human breast cancer cell lines, such as MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7, and the human mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A were purchased from ATCC-LGC-Promochem (Wesel, Germany). These cancer cell lines were cultured in 4.5 g/l DMEM with added 10% Fetal Calf Serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Biochrom, Berlin, Germany) in an incubator at 37°C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity. Instead, the mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A was cultured in a 1:1 mixture of DMEM (4.5 g/l glucose, L-glutamine) and Ham’s F12 medium with added 5% Horse Serum, 1 g/l Cholera toxin stock solution, 10 mg/ml Insulin (Sigma-Aldrich, I9278), 1 g/l Hydrocortison stock solution, 100 μg/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin 100× (P/S) under the same conditions as mentioned above. For all experiments, cells with passage numbers of 5–25 at about 80% confluency were harvested.

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.
