SHSY5Y human neuroblastoma-derived cells and PC12 pheochromocytoma cells were obtained from ATCC (Manassas, VA). HUH7 cells were generously provided by Dr. Brett Spear (University of Kentucky College of Medicine). Cells were maintained in DMEM (Corning, Manassas, VA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Atlanta Biologics, Atlanta, GA) and antibiotics and were maintained at 37°C in 5% CO2 and air. Siramesine, WZB-117, chloroquine, 3-methyladenine, bafilomycin, PB28, α-tocopherol, CGP3466B and SM21 were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO. Most of the compounds were dissolved in DMSO following the manufacturer’s instructions. 3-methyladenine was dissolved to 10 mM in RPMI-1640 media without serum and was applied directly to cells.

MTT Assay for PC12 Cell Viability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Pheochromocytoma PC12 cells, derived from rat adrenal medulla, were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA) and cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM), supplemented with 6% fetal bovine serum and horse serum, 100 units/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin in a humidified CO2 (7.5%) incubator at 37°C. Fresh medium was applied every other day. Culture reagents were from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA). Cell viability was assessed by MTT [3-(4, 5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide] assay. Cells were plated in 96-well plate for 24 hours and treated with drugs for 48 hours before adding MTT. Then the cells were incubated with MTT for another 3 hours at 37°C. After that, absorbance of 570 nm was measured in a microplate reader (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) [10 (link)].

Pheochromocytoma PC12 cells, a cell line derived from rat adrenal medulla, were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA). The cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagles medium (DMEM) supplemented with 6% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 6% horse serum (HS), 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin at 37°C in a water-saturated 7.5% CO2 incubator. Cultured medium was changed with fresh one every other day. Reagents for cell cultures were obtained from Invitrogen Technologies (Carlsbad, CA).

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.
