Karyotype	This is a hypotriploid human cell line. The modal chromosome number is 65 occurring at 50% and polyploidy at 0.8%. 18 marker chromosomes are common to most cells, of which 7 are paired and 11 are single-copied. The t(8q14q), t(9q17q), t(10q17p) are among 7 paired markers common to most cells. N7, N9, and N10 are absent and N11 is generally present in 4 copies. DM's occurred, but infrequently. Q-band examination did not show the presence of a Y chromosome.

Derivation	The T-47 line was isolated by I. Keydar from a pleural effusion obtained from a 54 year old female patient with an infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast.
Clinical Data	female 54 years
Receptor Expression	Receptor expression: calcitonin, expressed; androgen receptor, expressed; estrogen receptor, expressed; progesterone receptor, expressed; glucocorticoid receptor, positive, expressed; prolactin, expressed; calcitonin; androgen receptor, positive; progesterone receptor, positive; glucocorticoid; prolactin; estrogen receptor, positive
Effects	Yes, forms colonies in soft agar
Comments	This differentiated epithelial substrain (T-47D) was found to contain cytoplasmic junctions and receptors to 17 beta estradiol, other steroids and calcitonin. The cells express the WNT7B oncogene. RefHuguet EL, et al. Differential expression of human Wnt genes 2, 3, 4, and 7B in human breast cell lines and normal and disease states of human breast tissue.

Complete Growth Medium	The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium, Catalog No. 30-2001. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: 0.2 Units/ml bovine insulin; fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. Human insulin may also be used (Life Technologies, Catalog No. 12585-014).
Subculturing	Volumes are given for a 75 cm² flask. Increase or decrease the amount of dissociation medium needed proportionally for culture vessels of other sizes. Corning® T-75 flasks (catalog #430641) are recommended for subculturing this product. Remove and discard culture medium. Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin- 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor. Add 2.0 to 3.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes). Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal. Add 6.0 to 8.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels. Incubate cultures at 37°C. Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:3 to 1:5 is recommended Medium Renewal: 2 to 3 times per week
Cryopreservation	Freeze medium: Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Culture Conditions	Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO₂), 5% Temperature: 37°C
