Cck 8 reagent

Manufactured by Yeasen
Sourced in China, United States

The CCK-8 reagent is a colorimetric assay kit used to measure cell viability and cytotoxicity. It utilizes a water-soluble tetrazolium salt that is reduced by living cells, resulting in the formation of a water-soluble formazan dye. The intensity of the color produced is proportional to the number of viable cells, allowing for the quantification of cell proliferation and cytotoxicity.

Osteosarcoma cells were transfected with the human EIF4E3 overexpression plasmid and incubated in serum-free, antibiotic-free medium for 4 to 6 h before replacing the complete medium. Following this, cell viability was assessed by a colony formation assay in which 1 × 10 3 osteosarcoma cells were inoculated in 6-well plates and cultured for 12 days before staining with crystal violet. For the CCK-8 assay, 5 × 103 transfected osteosarcoma cells were incorporated into a 96-well culture plate for 24 h. Afterward, 10 μL of CCK-8 reagent (Yeasen, China) was added to measure the absorbance at 450 nm. Transwell assays were conducted to analyze the effect of EIF4E3 on osteosarcoma cell migration and invasion. In the upper chamber, osteosarcoma cells were inoculated at 5 × 104/well into serum-free medium, and in the lower chamber, 500 μL of medium containing 10% FBS was added. Cells were seeded into the upper chamber with precoated Matrigel For invasion. One day later, cells migrating to the subsurface of the PET membrane were immobilized with 4% paraformaldehyde and stained with crystal violet.

Following the cell transfection in a 96-well for 24 h, 10 μL of CCK-8 reagent (Yeasen, Shanghai, China) was added into each well and incubated for 1.5 h in a 37 °C incubator. Finally, the Varioskan LUX (Thermo Scientific, Singapore) was used to measure the absorbance at 450 nm. Cell proliferation was detected using a Cell-Light EdU Apollo567 In Vitro Kit (RiboBio, Guangzhou, China), following the manufacturer’s protocol. The cells were incubated with 50 mM of EDU solution at 37 °C for 2 h, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, and then stained with the Apollo Dye reaction and Hoechst stain. Finally, the cells were observed and imaged using a fluorescence microscope, and the fluorescence results were analysed using ImageJ 1.8 (USA). The flow cytometry experiment was performed as follows: the digested cells were fixed with 75% of ethanol at −20 °C for 18 h, washed and added to the fluorescent dye (BD Cycletest™ Plus DNA Reagent Kit, San Jose, CA, USA), and then assayed using a flow cytometer (BD FACSVerseTM, Piscataway, NJ, USA), and the measurements were analysed using Modfit 3.1.

The CCK-8, colony formation, and 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine absorb assays were performed to detect OC cell proliferation in vitro. CCK-8 reagent (Yeasen, Shanghai, China) and BeyoClick™ EdU-488 kit were used to perform CCK-8 and 5-Ethynyl-2 absorb assays, respectively, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For colony formation assay, 1000 OC cells were set in a 6-well plate and cultured at 37 °C for 14 days. The medium was then removed, and 4% paraformaldehyde was used to fix the cell colony. Finally, the cell colonies were stained with crystal violet, and colony number in each well was calculated.

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.
