Inhibiting pERK Production in Drosophila

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two drugs known to inhibit pERK production (Trametinib and Vorinostat) were used by feeding as published previously [12 (link),45 (link),46 (link)]. Both Trametinib (Cell Signaling, 62206S) and Vorinostat (Cell Signaling, 12520S) were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO; Fisher, 67-68-5) at 15 mM and 20 mM, respectively, to create stock solutions. Both drugs were then added to Drosophila food yeast paste and in the standard cornmeal/agar/molasses food in the final concentrations of 0.5 mM (Trametinib) and 1 mM (Vorinostat). Drosophila were induced to lay eggs on selection apple juice plates with drugged yeast paste food. Hatching first instars were selected and placed in standard vials containing Trametinib, Vorinostat, or control food with DMSO only. Larvae were reared in a 12-hour light/dark cycling incubators at 25°C and then collected as wandering third instars for TEVC studies.

HDAC Inhibitors Modulate EMT Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vorinostat (Vor) was obtained from cell signaling technology (Danvers, MA, USA) and romidepsin (Rom) from Selleck Chemicals. Stock solutions of Vorinostat and romidepsin were prepared in DMSO. Cell lines were seeded into 6-well plates and incubated overnight, cells were treated with HDAC inhibitors when they reached ~30 to 40% of confluency. For dose-dependent experiments, cells were treated with 2.5 µM, 5 µM and 10 µM of Vorinostat, and 5 nM, 10 nM, and 15 nM of romidepsin. To investigate changes in EMT markers, MDA-MB-231 and HS578T cells were treated 2.5 µM of Vorinostat and 5 nM of romidepsin. Following 24 h of incubation, RNA was collected and qPCR was performed. Three replicate wells were tested per concentration.

Vorinostat's Effects on U87 GBM Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
U87 human GBM cells were supplied by the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) Brain Tumor Research Center Preclinical Therapeutics Core (20 (link),22 (link)). Cells were routinely fingerprinted by Cell Line Genetics using single nucleotide polymorphism within 6 months of any study. Cells were cultured in high-glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM, GIBCO) supplemented with 10% FBS, 2mM L-glutamine, 100units/mL penicillin, 100μg/mL streptomycin and maintained in 5% CO2 at 37°C.
Vorinostat (SAHA, MK0683) was purchased from Selleckchem. For all in vitro studies Vorinostat was prepared by dissolution in DMSO for a stock concentration of 10mM that was stored at −20°C. Cells were then treated for 48h either with Vorinostat diluted to a final concentration of 10μM (treated cells) or 1:1000 DMSO (controls) in culture medium. The effect of drug on cell number was assessed by seeding ~2×105 cells per flask, allowing the cells to adhere overnight, initiating treatment for 48h with either Vorinostat or DMSO, and then counting the number of cells per flask.
The effect of drug on acetylation (n=2 for both control and Vorinostat-treated) was assessed by immune-precipitation following the previously described method (26 (link)) using antibodies specific for the acetyl-H3-Lys9, acetyl-H4-Lys5, histone-H3, and histone-H4 (1:1000) (Cell Signaling Technology).

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.
