In order to verify that the antigrowth effect of the SCD chemical inhibitor was not cell type-specific, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, as well as in normal human WS-1 fibroblasts, were incubated with CVT-11127 for 24 h and cell proliferation was assessed by Crystal violet staining (Figure 1F). Here, SCD is linked to breast cancer.
