Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For most of the experiments, enoxacin (E3764, Sigma-Aldrich) was dissolved in 100% DMSO and added to the growth medium at the final concentration of 50 µM. Generally, cells were grown in the presence of 50 µM enoxacin for 48 hours, unless stated otherwise. Cells were exposed to 2 or 5 Gy of ionizing radiation with a high-voltage X-ray generator tube (Faxitron X-Ray Corporation). siRNAs for human TARBP2, PACT, TNRC6A, -B and -C, 53BP1, and GFP or non-targeting siRNAs as negative controls, were purchased from Dharmacon (Table S1) and transfected using Lipofectamine® RNAiMAX (Thermo-Fisher) at the final concentration of 20 nM. Cherry-LacR and I-SceI expressing plasmids33 (link) were transfected with Lipofectamine® 2000 (Thermo-Fisher). I-SceI expression in I-HeLa111 was induced by administrating 1 µg ml−1 doxycycline for 24 hours. To induce Trf2 knock-out, Trf2F/F MEFs35 (link) were incubated with 600 nM 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4OHT) for 48 hours.

Enoxacin and EGCG Proliferation and Viability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Enoxacin (#94426) and EGCG (#4143) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, diluted in DMSO, and stored at 40C. For proliferation assays, 2.5 × 104 cells were plated in 12-well plates and exposed to Enoxacin or EGCG for 48 h. 48 h after treatment, cells were trypsinized and counted with a TC10 Automated Cell counter (BioRad) and cell numbers were normalized to control wells. For viability assays, 10,000 cells were seeded in triplicate in 96-well plates and incubated for 24 h. Medium was then replaced with either control medium or medium containing 2-fold dilutions of Enoxacin or EGCG (starting concentration 500 μM) and incubated for 48 h. Viability was determined by the addition of alamarBlue for 4 h and reading at 570 nm. 600 nm readings were used to detect background signal and data were normalized by determing the ratio of 570 nm/600 nm.

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.
