The BPLER and HMLER cells were established previously20 (link) and characterized extensively4 (link),20 (link),90 (link)–98 (link). The BPLER cells are cultured in the BMI-T medium (US Biological, cat# 506387.500, or TumoriGenesis Product No: 833)5 (link), and the HMLER cells are cultured in MEGM medium (Lonza,cat# CC-3150)4 (link),20 (link). The BPLER and HMLER cells we established were tested for mycoplasma and deposited to ATCC (American Type Culture Collection, ATCC item #s CRL-3546 and CRL-3547) and European Collection of Authenticated Cell Cultures (ECACC, Accession numbers; 20012030, 20012033, 20012038, 20012041, 20012044, and 20012047, https://www.ukbrcn.org/news/new-accessions-coming-soon-to-the-european-collection-of-authenticated-cell-cultures/).
