The human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and MCF 10A were purchased from the National Collection of Authenticated Cell Cultures (Shanghai, China). This study presents data on GPD1 expression and survival rates by distinguishing between patients with Luminal, HER2 positive, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines used were also derived from Luminal and triple-negative patients, respectively. All cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) (11965, Gibco, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (10100, Gibco, USA), 100 U/ml penicillin G and 100 μg/mL streptomycin at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator [18 (link)].
The clinical samples of human breast cancer tissues and the corresponding adjacent benign tissues from the same patients were collected from Henan Provincial People's Hospital. The inclusion criterion was that the patient did not receive chemotherapy or radiotherapy before surgery. All patients were diagnosed and graded by pathologists to ensure the accuracy of clinical specimens. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Henan Provincial People's Hospital (Approval number: 2021-84). Informed consent was obtained from all subjects involved in the study.

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.
