Dmem ham f12 culture medium

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

DMEM/HAM F12 culture medium is a commonly used cell culture medium that provides a balanced formulation of nutrients, vitamins, and salts to support the growth and maintenance of various cell lines. It is a combination of Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) and Ham's F12 medium, designed to create a versatile and widely applicable cell culture environment.

MCF7 (ATTC©HTB-22) BC cell line was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). BC cells were grown in DMEM/HAM F12 culture medium (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Sigma; St. Louis, MO, USA), 100 IU/mL of penicillin (Sigma; St. Louis, MO, USA), and 100 µg/mL of streptomycin (Sigma; St. Louis, MO, USA). Mycoplasma-free cultures were maintained at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2.

Isolation and Cultivation of Adipocyte Precursor Cells

Subcutaneous AT samples were obtained from children undergoing bariatric or elective orthopedic surgery (Supplementary Table 1). SVF cells and adipocytes were isolated and preserved for later RNA isolation as previously described19 (link),46 . The remaining SVF cells were filtered through a nylon mesh with 30-µm pore size. Erythrocytes were removed with erythrocyte lysis buffer (0.154 M NH4Cl (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.01 M KHCO3 (Merck) and 0.1 mM EDTA (Sigma-Aldrich)). SVF cells were frozen in liquid nitrogen in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium/Ham F-12 culture medium (DMEM/F-12) (Life Technologies) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Biochrom) and 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (Sigma-Aldrich). Cells were thawed and 24 h after seeding cells were washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline to select for adipocyte precursor cells via plastic adherence. Isolated SVF cells were cultivated in DMEM/Ham F-12 culture medium containing 10% FBS and 100 U penicillin and 0.1 mg ml−1 streptomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) at 37 °C and 5% CO2 and passaged every 3–4 d.

MDA-MB-231 (ATTC©HTB-26TB) breast cancer cell line was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). Breast cancer cells were grown in DMEM/HAM F12 culture medium (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Sigma), 100 IU/mL of penicillin (Sigma), and 100 µg/mL of streptomycin (Sigma). Mycoplasma free cultures were maintained at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2.

Breast Cancer Cell Line Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The T47D (ATCC©HTB-133™), MCF7 (ATCC©HTB-22™), MDA-MB-231 (ATTC©HTB-26TM), MDA-MB-468 (ATTC©HTB-132TM), BT-549 (ATTC©HTB-122TM) and HCC1937 (ATTC©CRL-2336TM) BC cell lines as well as MCF-10A (ATTC©CRL-10317TM) normal breast cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATTC) (Manassas; VA, USA). Normal human primary fibroblast culture (HSF) was obtained by the outgrowth technique from skin explants of a young person using a method routinely used in our lab (local ethics committee permission No. KE0254/298/2015). BC cells were maintained in the DMEM/HAM F12 culture medium (Sigma-Aldrich). The medium comprised 10% FBS and antibiotics: penicillin—100 IU/mL, streptomycin—100 µg/mL. The cancer cell lines for the research were chosen to evaluate the differences in responses to test substances. The selected cell lines used in our experiments are models of a specified molecular subtype of BC which makes the obtained results much more reproducible and comparable with other studies. The detailed characteristics of BC cell lines used in the study are summed up in Table 1.

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.
