MCF10A hRas_V12 cell line

Invented by Sarah-Maria Fendt
Invented at VIB

Info

Catalogue Number 156525
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets HRas
Parental Line MCF10A
Synonyms transforming protein p21, h-Ras, HRAS
Host Human
Tissue Breast
Disease Keywords Cancer
Model Cancer Model
Relevance MCF10A cells are frequently used to study signalling pathways in breast cancer. They can be grown in 3D culture. The addition of the H-Ras12 simulates breast cancer as 50% of breast cancers display increased H-Ras activity.
Conditional No
Research Area Cancer
Recommended Growing Conditions DMEM-F12 supplemented with 5% horse serum, 1% penicillin (50 units ml−1), 1% streptomycin (50 μg ml−1), 0.5 μg ml−1 hydrocortisone, 100 ng ml−1 cholera toxin, 10 μg ml−1 insulin and 20 ng ml−1 recombinant human EGF.
Notes There is a negative control for this cell line which was made using the same pLA vector but not expressing the HRAS gene.
