General description
Oestrogen receptor only. Upon withdrawal of fulvestrant, the resistant phenotype is stable and the cells express ER alpha, although at a reduced level. The MCF7/182R-6 cells do not express progesterone receptor. The MCF7/182R-6 cells express increased level of EGFR, phosphorylated EGFR and phosphorylated ErbB3 and reduced level of ErbB4 compared to the parental MCF7/S0.5 cells
Cell Line Description
The MCF7/182R-6 Cell line is a breast cancer cell line resistant to fulvestrant. The MCF7/182R-6 cell line has been established from a clone of MCF7/S0.5 cells surviving long term growth with the pure steroidal antiestrogen ICI 182,780 in 100 nM concentration, see Lykkesfeldt et al (1995). The MCF7/182R-6 cells are grown in the presence of fulvestrant.
Culture Medium
Phenol red free DMEM:F12 (1:1) (D6434) + 1% FBS (F2442), 2.5 mM Ala-Gln (G8541) and 6 ng/ml insulin. Supplemented with 100nM fulvestrant to maintain resistance.
Subculture Routine
Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:6 i.e. seeding at 2-4 x 10, 000 cells/cm² using 0.05% trypsin or trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C.
Other Notes
