Pancreatic cancer cell lines used in this study (BxPC-3 [#CRL-1687), SW1990 [#CRL-2172], SU.86.86 [#CRL-1837], PANC-1 [#CRL-1469], Hs 766T [#HTB-134], CFPAC-1 [#CRL-1918], MIA PaCa-2 [#CRM-CRL-1420], AsPC-1 [#CRL-1682], Panc 03.27 [#CRL-2549], HPAF-II [#CRL-1997], and Capan-2 [#HTB-80]) were purchased from ATCC and maintained in RPMI-1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). The identity of each cell line was confirmed by DNA fingerprinting via short tandem repeats at the time of mRNA and total protein lysate preparation using the PowerPlex 1.2 kit (Promega). Fingerprinting results were compared with reference fingerprints maintained by the primary source of the cell line.
Transient knockdown of CES2 was performed by transfecting the cells using the following siRNAs: siControl (Silencer Select Negative Control No. 1, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and siCES2 (s225041, s528; Thermo Fisher Scientific). Short-hairpin RNAs targeting human CES2 mRNA and cloned into the pLKO.1-puro vector were obtained from the human library MISSION® TRC-Hs 1.0 (Sigma–Aldrich, TRCN0000046965). For overexpression, CES2 was cloned into the pLenti-C-Myc-DDK-IRESPuro (OriGene) vector, and an empty vector was used as a control. Lentiviral infections were conducted using 293LTV cells (Cell Biolabs, Inc.).

Knockdown of HOXC6, MARK4, and PRNP in HCT116 and SW480 Cells

HOXC6, MARK4, and PRNP-specific small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and a negative control siRNA (si-NC) were synthesized by Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany). The siRNA sequences were the following:

si-HOXC6 #1, 5′-UCCUACUUCACUAACCCUU[dT][dT]-3′;

si-HOXC6 #2, 5′-CCUCAAUUCCACCGCCUAU[dT][dT]-3′;

si-MARK4 #1, 5′-GCAUCAUGAAGGGCCUAAA[dT][dT]-3′

si-MARK4 #2, 5′-CCAUCUACCUUGGGAUCAA[dT][dT]-3′;

si-PRNP #1, 5′-GCGUCAAUAUCACAAUCAA[dT][dT]-3′;

and si-PRNP #2, 5′-GCCUAUUACCAGAGAGGAU[dT][dT]-3′.

The siRNAs were transfected into HCT116 cells using Lipofectamine RNAiMax (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) at a final concentration of 50 nM. RNA was extracted 48 h after transfection. We also obtained three lentiviral vectors containing short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) directed to ARC and an empty vector (pLKO.1 puro) from the MISSION TRC-Hs1.0 library (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA). The four lentiviral vectors were co-transfected into 293FT cells with VSVG and PAX2 plasmids using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The supernatant containing the lentivirus was collected 48 h after transfection and added to SW480 cells with 5 μM polybrene. Stable colonies were selected clonally with 5 μg/ml puromycin for 14 days, and sh-negative control (sh-NC), sh-ARC #1, #2, and #3 were established.

Lentiviral Knockdown of HSulf-1 in OV202 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HSulf-1-targeting ShRNA1 (Sh1), which targets the 3′-untranslated region (UTR), was cloned into lentiviral vector pLKO.1-puro as described previously.1 (link) HSulf-1-targeting ShRNA2 (Sh2) and nontargeting control ShRNA (NTC shRNA) cloned into the lentivirus vector pLKO.1-puro were chosen from the human library (MISSION TRC-Hs 1.0) and purchased as glycerol stock from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). Transfection with Fugene (Roche, South San Francisco, CA) was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfected cells were selected with 1 lg/ml puromycin. Two populations of transduced cells (OV202 Sh1 and Sh2) were generated instead of clonal lines generated from individual colonies.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
