The Jurkat (ATCC, TIB-152), KOPN-8 (Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen [DSMZ], ACC 552), and NALM-16 (DSMZ, ACC 680) cell lines were kindly provided by Dr. Miles A. Pufall and Dr. Carlos Chan from the University of Iowa (Iowa City, IA, USA). Jurkat, KOPN-8, and NALM-16 cells were maintained in RPMI-160 medium (Gibco, 11875119) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Atlanta Biologicals, S11550). Ea.Hy926 cells (ATCC, CRL-2922) were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Gibco, 11965092) supplemented with 10% FBS. CHO WT and CHO 22+ cells were generously provided by Dr. James C. Paulson (The Scripps Research Institute (La Jolla, CA, USA). CHO WT and CHO 22+ cells were prepared as described previously.71 (link),72 (link) CHO WT and CHO 22+ cells were maintained in DMEM/F12 (Gibco, 11320033) supplemented with 10% FBS and DMEM/F12 supplemented with 10% FBS and 500 μg/mL Hygromycin-B (Roche, 10843555001), respectively. Cell lines were incubated at 37°C under 5% CO2 with medium changes every 2–3 days until confluent. Non-adherent cells were trypsinized using trypsin EDTA (0.25%; Gibco, 25200072). Cell lines were screened for mycoplasma contamination93 (link) and used within eight passages.

Patient tumour tissue was collected following informed consent and with human ethics approval from the QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute and Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital human research ethics committees. All human studies have been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in the 2013 version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. Tumour tissue was examined by a neuropathologist to determine tumour type and grade. Patient-derived cell lines [30 (link)–32 (link), 73 (link)–76 (link)] were established as reported previously [29 (link)]. These were cultured as adherent monolayers in matrigel (BD Biosciences)-coated vessels using RHB-A stem cell culture medium (StemCells Inc) supplemented with 20 ng/ml EGF (Gibco) and 10 ng/ml FGFb (Gibco) or as tumourspheres using StemPro NSC SFM (Invitrogen). U87 and U251 cells (obtained from The University of Queensland and authenticated by PCR-based short tandem repeat profiling by the QIMR-B DNA Sequencing and Genotyping facility within the past 12 months) were maintained in RPMI160 medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum (Gibco), 2 mM L-glutamine, 25 mM HEPES, 25 mM sodium bicarbonate, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. Cells were cultured in 5% CO2 / 95% humidified air at 37°C. GBM subtyping was performed as described [25 (link)].

HEK293T, HeLa, and TZM-bl cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Invitrogen), 50 U/ml penicillin, and 50 μg/ml streptomycin (Invitrogen). SupT1 cells were grown in RPMI 160 medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 50 U/ml penicillin, and 50 μg/ml streptomycin. Transfection of plasmid DNAs or siRNAs was conducted with polyethyleneimine (PEI) (Sigma-Aldrich) or Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen) according with the manufacturer’s instructions.

The A549 and H1975 human LUAD cell lines and BEAS‐2B human normal lung fibroblast cell lines used in this study were purchased from the Cell Bank of Type Culture Collection of the Chinese Academy of Science (Shanghai Institute of Cell Biology, China) and authenticated by STR typing. The A549 were cultured in Ham's F‐12K medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). H1975 were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco, Life Technologies, California, USA) with 10% fetal bovine serum. The BEAS‐2B were cultured in were cultured in RPMI 160 medium (Invitrogen, Shanghai, China) supplemented with 10% FBS. The cells were placed in a CO2 incubator (SANYO Electric Co., Ltd., Japan) with constant 90% humidity and 5% CO2.

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.
