Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HT29 human colorectal cancer cells (ATTC_HTB-38) were grown in triplicates for 24 h on 8-well Nunc Lab-Tek (177,402, Nagle Nunc, Rochester, USA) for confocal microscopy and 8-well Ibitreat microscopy chamber (Ibidi GmbH, Martinsried, German) for STED microscopy (initial cell number: 5000 cell/300 µl/well). For electron microscopy (EM) and DAB immune EM, we cultured the cells on Lab-Tek chamber (initial cell number: 8000 cell/300 µl/well) for 72 h in RPMI 1640 medium (Biosera, Ringmer, UK) supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine (Merck-Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany), 80 mg/2 ml gentamycin (Sandoz) and 10% sEV-depleted FBS. To preserve the MVB-like sEVCs, we decanted the culture medium carefully from the cultures, instead of aspirating it with a pipette. The sEV depletion was performed by ultracentrifugation of foetal bovine serum (Merck-Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany) in an Optima MAX-XP Benchtop Ultracentrifuge with an MLA-55 fixed-angle rotor (Beckman Coulter, Brea, USA) at 120,000 g for 16 h.

Breast (MCF7, T47D) and lung cancer (A549, H1650) cell lines were purchased from ATCC (Manassas, VA, USA), and DSMZ (Braunschweig, Germany), and used for in vitro experiments. MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma (HTB-22) and H1650 lung adenocarcinoma (CRL-5883) cell lines were cultured in RPMI1640 (LM-R1640; Biosera, Nuaille, France). A549 lung carcinoma (CCL-185) cell line was grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose, BE12-604Q; Lonza, Basel, Switzerland). T47D human ductal carcinoma (HTB-133) cell line was maintained in Ham’s F12 Nutrient Mix (21765-029; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
All media were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FB-1090; Biosera, Nuaille, France) and 0.4% gentamycin (Sandoz, Basel, Switzerland; 80 mg/2 mL). For T47D, 10 µg/mL insulin (12585-014; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) also was added to medium. All of the cell lines were kept under standard culture conditions (5% CO2, 37 °C).
All cell lines were regularly tested for Mycoplasma sp., applying a PCR test following the methodological article written by Uphoff et al. [65 (link)]. Only negative cell lines were used for research purposes.

Genomic DNA Isolation from HT29 Colon Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The HT29 undifferentiated colon adenocarcinoma cell line was purchased from the 1st Department of Pathology and Experimental Cancer Research (Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary). The cells were maintained in RPMI 1640 medium (Sigma-Aldrich, United States) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS; Standard Quality; PAA Laboratories GmbH, Austria), 125 μg/ml amphotericin B (Sigma-Aldrich, United States), and 160 μg/ml gentamycin (Sandoz, Sandoz GmbH, Austria). The medium was replaced every second day.
Genomic DNA (gDNA; g) was isolated from 5 × 107 steady state, proliferating HT29 cells. DNA isolation was performed by using a High Pure PCR template preparation kit containing proteinase K (Roche GmbH, Germany). The DNA samples were treated with 5 μl RNase A/T1 Mix (Thermo Scientific, Germany). The DNA concentration was determined by Nanodrop (Thermo Scientific, Germany). Gel electrophoresis determined that the fragment length of gDNA was approximately 10,000 base pairs [22 (link)].
According to the bisulfite sequencing analysis of Ogoshi et al. [30 (link)], the basal methylation status of HT29 cells’ CpG sites is as follows: 31.6% in the low range; 11.6 percent in the middle; and 56.7 percent in the high range. Based on MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry measurements, the DNA samples were free of RNA, protein, or lipopolysaccharide contamination (data not shown).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by density gradient centrifugation over Ficoll-Histopaque (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). The ratio of the CLL cells among the PBMCs was over 90% assessed by flow cytometry. The isolated CLL cells were cultured at a concentration of 2 × 10 6 cells/ml in RPMI-1640 (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Sigma-Aldrich), gentamycin (Sandoz, Boucherville, QC, Canada), and L-glutamine (Gibco, Carbbad, CA, USA). The CLL cells were cultured in medium alone, on VCAM-1-coated plates or in co-culture with BMSCs. The BMSC cultures, isolated from bone marrow aspirates of normal or ITP patients with no abnormal cells determined by flow cytometry, were prepared as described previously [19] . BMSCs were cultured on 24-well plates maintained at a concentration of 2 × 10 4 cells/ml in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with 20% FBS, gentamycin, and L- glutamine. In co-culture experiments after discarding the DMEM, 2 × 10 6 cells/ml CLL cells per well were seeded onto the BMSC monolayer.

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.
