HeLa, MCF-7, MCF 10A, A549, L929, and
B16F10 were bought from National Centre for Cell Sciences (NCCS),
Pune, India. The drug-resistant EMT6/AR1 cell line was bought from
Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA. HeLa and MCF-7 were maintained using Eagle’s
minimal essential medium. L929 and B16F10 cells were grown in Dulbecco’s
modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM), whereas A549 cells were cultured
in F-12K nutrient medium, supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine
serum and 1% (v/v) antibiotic–antimycotic solution as described
earlier.81 (link) The EMT6/AR1 cell line was maintained
as described previously.44 (link) MCF 10A was
grown in DMEM and F12K in a 1:1 ratio supplemented with 10% (v/v)
fetal bovine serum, 1% (v/v) antibiotic–antimycotic solution,
epidermal growth factor (20 ng/mL), hydrocortisone (0.5 μg/mL),
and insulin (10 μg/mL).82 (link) All the
cells were grown in optimized conditions in a humidified incubator
in 5% CO2 at 37 °C (Sanyo, Tokyo, Japan).

Tissue culture plasticware was purchased from BD Biosciences (CA, USA). MDAMB231, MCF7, MCF10A and HEK 293 were obtained from National Centre for Cell Science (NCCS), Pune. The cells were grown in DMEM supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 units/ml of penicillin/streptomycin, and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). They were incubated in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C.

Culturing Breast Cancer and Normal Cell Lines in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and human normal breast cell line MCF-10A were obtained from the National Centre for Cell Science. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and maintained in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator at 37 °C. MCF-10A cells were cultured in GibcoDulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium: F-12 (DMEM/F-12) 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and maintained in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator at 37 °C.
Female nude mice (Balb/c) were purchased from Shanghai Sipu-BiKAI Laboratory Animal Co., Ltd (Shanghai, China). The mice were housed in a controlled environment with a constant temperature of 26–28 °C and humidity ranging from 40% −60%. Sterile double distilled water and sterile chow were provided as food and water sources for the mice. The experiments were carried out in strict accordance with the regulations for the Management of experimental animals of Nanjing Normal University and with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

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.
