| Product description: | The T47D/TR-2 cell line is a tamoxifen-resistant derivative of the T47D human breast cancer cell line. It was established, alongside its sister line T47D/TR-1, by adapting T47D/S2 cells to 1 μM tamoxifen under reduced serum conditions (2% FCS), resulting in stable resistance to tamoxifen. |
| Gender: | Female |
| Conditional: | Yes |
| Production details: | Human breast cancer cell line derived from T47D/S2 cells by long-term culture in the presence of 1 μM tamoxifen under reduced serum conditions to induce tamoxifen resistance. Clonal selection was performed in medium without tamoxifen. After 10 months in the presence of tamoxifen, the growth rate of the resistant cell lines had increased to a similar level as the parental cell line. |

| Growth medium: | Phenol red free RPMI 1640 + 2% FCS + glutamax + 8ug Insulin/ml + 1 uM tamoxifen. Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) typically contains less estrogen than Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and is the preferred supplement for this cell line. |
| Subculture routine: | Following thawing and counting, dilute the cell suspension with sufficient medium and distribute 5 mL each into T25 flasks to achieve a seeding density of 1.8 – 2.0 x 10^4 / cm2. Place in 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator. Change medium after 24 hours to remove residual DMSO and then every 2-3 days. Subculture routine: Split 1:7 weekly (slow growing cell line) with Trypsin-EDTA for detachment at 37 °C for 5 minutes. Please also see detailed protocol within the Product Datasheet in the Documentation section below. |
