This study was conducted in accordance with the principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki (as revised in 2013). Ethical clearance was granted from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University Medical Science Research Ethics Committee (Ethics code: 2021-SR-308). Breast cancer specimens were harvested from the Department of General Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, and written informed consent was provided by the patients or their next of kin. Surgical specimens were resected, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and deposited in the Biological Sample Bank of Jiangsu Province Hospital. The catalogue number of samples used in this study were 399, 459, 461, 474, 476, 477 and 488. The breast tumor cells MCF-7, ZR-75-1, BT-474, SK-BR-3, MDA-MB-453, MDA-MB-231, BT-549, Hs-578T, HCC1806, and HCC1937 were purchased from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). For western blot analysis, frozen human breast cancer samples were ground and homogenized in a mortar and pestle under liquid nitrogen and then lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (Solarbio, Beijing, China) supplemented with protease inhibitors phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF; Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Cells were rinsed twice with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and lysed in RIPA buffer on ice.

The short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting YTHDF3 was subcloned into the GV493 lentiviral shRNA vector (Genechem, Shanghai, China). For overexpression of ZEB1, the construct was generated by subcloning PCR amplified full-length human ZEB1 cDNA into the vector. The constructed lentiviral vectors were packaged into viruses in 293 T cells which were then harvested and the concentrated viruses were added to TNBC cells and cultured for 72 hours. Gene sequences are provided in Table S1.

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.
