MDA-MB-231 cells (ATCC HTB-26) were cultured in an incubator maintained at 37°C with 5% CO2 under full growth medium consisting of Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% Donor Bovine Serum (Gibco), 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin (Gibco), 1% Non-Essential Amino Acids (Gibco), and 1% L-glutamine (Gibco). MCF-10A cells were cultured in full growth medium consisting of DMEM/F12 (Gibco) with 5% Donor Horse Serum, 20 ng/mL epidermal growth factor (Corning), 10 μg/mL insulin, 0.5 μg/mL hydrocortisone, 100 ng/mL cholera toxin, and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin. Transfections of GFP-Lamin A, GFP-H1.1 or RFP-lifeact (iBidi) were performed with Lipofectamine 3000 (ThermoFisher Scientific) in OptiMEM serum-free media (ThermoFisher) following the manufacturer’s suggested protocols. Transduction of Ad-NLS-GFP (a gift from Dr. Daniel Conway, originally from Vector Biosystems INC.) were performed with polybrene at final concentration of 5 μg/ml in normal culture medium.

Cell Culture Protocols for Cell Lines

T-47D, NK-92, 293 and HeLa cell lines were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) and cultured following the methods recommended by ATCC at 37°C in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator. All the media, fetal bovine serum and donor horse serum were purchased from Corning (NY, USA); other supplements were from ThermoFisher Scientific (MA, USA). Two hundred units per ml of recombinant human IL-2 from PeproTech (NJ, USA, Cat. 200–02) was used in NK-92 culture.

Adhesion of C2C12 Myoblasts to Actuating Hydrogels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C2C12 myoblasts were maintained in culture
at 37 °C with 5% CO2 concentration in growth media
(DMEM (Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Corning) and
1% penicillin–streptomycin (Corning)), and passaged no more
than 15 times before use in experiments. Glass slides with hydrogels
were fitted into metal imaging chambers and cells were plated at a
density of 60,000 cells/chamber in growth media and allowed to attach
overnight before experiments were conducted. To validate cell adhesion
to actuating hydrogels, gels were formed with and without laminin,
and adhered cells were visualized with 10 μM CellTracker CMTMR
(Invitrogen). The number of attached cells and cell spreading area
were quantified.
For experiments longer than 1 day, cell media
was changed daily, using growth media until cells reached ∼80%
confluency, at which point media was changed to DMEM supplemented
with 2% donor horse serum (Corning) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin.

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.
