Faciliated primary culture and amplification of breast cancer cells and their biological properties / 基础医学与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To efficiently builds up and expand breast cancer cells from cancer tissue and to identify their biological properties , provide abundant materials for research and personalized medicine .Methods Feeder cell layer and ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 were employed to faciliate the breast cancer cells;CCK-8 was used to determine the proliferation of the breast cancer cells; Cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry; Histochemistry ( FH) assay to show the expression level of CK .The mRNA expression of HER-2, ER, PR and the breast cancer stem cell associated molecules (such as CD44, CD24, etc.) were detected by RT-PCR;STR assay was used for identifying verification of the cells .Results The use of feeder cells and Y-27632 facilitates rapid expand of the original breast cancer cells , and the cells have kept the original features of the tumor .Conclusions To use the method could obtain a large number of cells within a short time , which can promptly be used for the research of per-sonalized medicine .
