  • Name: MCF7/AnaR-4 Cell Line
  • Alternate name: MCF-7/AnaR-4; AnaR-4
  • Tool sub type: Continuous
  • Parental cell: MCF7
  • Organism: Human
  • Gender: Female
  • Tissue: Breast
  • Disease: Cancer
  • Growth properties: Breast cancer cell line resistant to the aromatase inhibitor anastrozole. Estrogen receptor positive.
  • Conditional: No
  • Description: MCF7/AnaR-4 is a cell culture model mimicking acquired resistance of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) - an anti-cancer therapy. This breast cancer cell line was established from MCF7/S0.5 cells, which originates from MCF7 cells. The cellular classification is epithelial, and their shape is polygonal.

    The MCF7/AnaR-4 cell line is resistant to the third generation AI - anastrozole (Arimidex). MCF/AnaR-4 is oestrogen receptor positive. Third generation AIs have proven to be effective treatme...
  • Application: Investigation of molecular mechanisms
  • Production details: Anastrozole-resistant cell lines were established from MCF7 cells grown in medium with 10% NCS and 10â?‚ˆ?‚Â’7 M testosterone. A culture of MCF7 cells were treated with 10â?‚ˆ?‚Â’7 M anastrozole for one week, trypsinized and seeded in serial dilutions in 24-well plates. Single colonies were transferred to new wells and gradually expanded in medium with anastrozole. After ~2â?‚€?‚“3 months, the isolated colonies gave rise to anastrozole-resistant cell lines, which could be grown i...
