The human cancer cell line MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma; ER+, PR+, HER2-) and MDA-MB-231 (human breast adenocarcinoma; ER-, PR-, HER2-) were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium with Glutamax-I and Sodium pyruvate (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA) and RPM1 1640 medium (Biosera, Kansas City, MO, USA), respectively. The growth medium was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific and 1X HyClone™ Antibiotic/Antimycotic Solution (GE Healthcare), and cells were cultivated in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2 in humidified air at 37 °C. Cell viability, estimated by trypan blue exclusion, was greater than 95% before each experiment.
MCF-7 (3 × 105) and MDA-MB-231 (1 × 105) cells were seeded in Petri dishes and cultivated for 24 h in a complete medium with 10% FCS. Cells were treated with essential oil of T. vulgaris (EOT, Calendula, Nová Ľubovňa, Slovak Republic) for 24, 48, and 72 h prior to analysis. EOT was prepared by a steam distillation procedure. Its composition was analyzed by GC-MS, as is described later.

In the in vitro experiments, human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 (ER+, PR+, HER2−), MDA-MB-231 (ER− PR−, HER2−) and non-cancer MCF-10A (human mammary gland epithelial cells) were used. Breast cancer cells were cultured in DMEM medium (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA) or RPM1 1640 medium (Biosera, Kansas City, MO, USA) and non-cancer cells were cultured in DMEM F12 medium (Biosera, Kansas City, MO, USA) + supplemented with insulin, EGF- epithelial growth factor, HC-hydrocortisone (all Sigma, Steinheim, Germany). The growth medium was supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco), antibiotic/antimycotic solution (1× HyClone™; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) and cells were cultivated in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2 in humidified air at 37 °C. Before each experiments, the cell viability was estimated by trypan blue exclusion (≥95%).
For the flow cytometry experiments, the MCF-7 (3 × 105) and MDA-MB-231 (1 × 105) cells were seeded in Petri dishes and cultivated for 24 h in a complete cultivation medium. The sumac extract (SONNENTOR Kräuterhandels GMBH, Sprögnitz, Austria) was added to every experimental group for 24, 48, and 72 h prior to analysis.

Breast Cancer Cell Line Cultivation and Treatment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BC cell lines MCF-7 (ER+, PR+, HER2) and MDA-MB-231 (ER, PR, HER2) (both lines: American Type Culture Collection, ATCC; Manassas, VA, USA) were used in all in vitro experiments. In addition, a non-cancerous MCF-10A (human mammary gland epithelial cells) were used as a normal breast epithelial model. MCF-7 cells were maintained in DMEM medium (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA), MDA-MB-231 in RPM1 1640 medium (Biosera, Kansas City, MO, USA), and MCF-10A in DMEM F12 medium (Biosera, Kansas City, MO, USA) + suppl. insulin, EGF- epithelial growth factor and HC-hydrocortisone (all Sigma, Steinheim, Germany). The 10% FBS (Fetal bovine serum, Gibco) and antibiotic/antimycotic solution (1× HyClone™; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) were used to supplement culture media. Basic cultivation conditions were a 5% CO2-containing atmosphere, humidified air, and 37°C temperature. A trypan blue exclusion test was used to estimate the viability of used cells (≥95%). For the flow cytometry experiments, the MCF-7 (3 × 105) and MDA-MB-231 (1 × 105) cells were seeded in Petri dishes. After 24 h seeding and initial colony growth in a complete cultivation medium, the cells were treated with the SPGE (Calendula, Nová Ľubovňa, Slovakia) for 24, 48, and 72 h before analysis (Kubatka et al., 2019 (link); Kubatka et al., 2020a (link); Kubatka et al., 2020b (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.
