Matrigel‐coated Transwell assays were performed as previously reported.30 HTR8/SVneo cells (8 × 104) were plated in transwell inserts (8.0 μm, Merck Millipore, Germany) precoated with 60 μl of Matrigel (BD Biosciences). After 4 h of incubation at 37°C, 200 μl of RPMI Medium 1640 basic (1×; Life Technologies) containing vehicle (0.1% DMSO), AICAR (Selleck), compound C (Selleck) or PEP was loaded into the upper chambers, while 500 μl of medium containing 10% FBS was added into the lower chambers. After incubation in 21% O2 or 1% O2 at 37°C for 24 h, the noninvading cells on the top of the inserts were scraped off using a cotton swab. The filter under the inserts with invaded cells attached was washed with cold PBS, and the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, stained with crystal violet and photographed with an EVOS FL Auto microscope (Life Technologies). In each independent experiment, a scan of the entire field of view was obtained for a comprehensive description of each sample, and 10 fields of view at 200× magnification were randomly selected per sample for quantification.

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.
