Project description:Experiments to test the effect of CtBP2 inhibition on metabolism of breast cell lines. In particular, experiment 1 involves comparison between a normal breast cell line (MCF102A) and a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB231). Experiment 2 is a study between MDA-MB231 silenced for CtBP2 by stable RNA interference (shCtBP2 cells) compared to scramble (shCTRL cells). Experiment 3 is a comparison between a normal breast cell line (MCF102A) and a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB231)in the presence of the absence of small-molecule CtBP inhibitors: HIPP (400 μM) or P4 (300 μM)for 48 hours.
