3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bro- mide (MTT) reagent (MP Bio, Santa Ana, CA, USA) dissolved in 1X PBS (5 mg/mL) was added to culture medium to a final concentration of 0.16 mg/mL. Cells were incubated for 4 h at 37°C, after which media and MTT reagent were removed. Formazan crystals were solubilized in 1 mL DMSO, diluted 1:10 in additional DMSO, then transferred to a microplate to quantify A570 using a Biotek plate reader.

MTT assay was performed as described earlier [60 (link),61 (link),71 (link)]. Briefly, cells (5000 cells/well) were seeded in triplicates in 96-well plates and treated with various concentrations of SP11 after a 24 h incubation. Cells were then treated with MTT reagent, MP Biomedicals (5 mg/mL) at 37 °C, 5% CO2, post 48 and 72 h of incubation with SP11. Absorbance was recorded at 570 nm and the results shown were collected from three different biological replicates.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MTT assay was performed as described earlier (2 (link), 5 (link)). Cells were seeded (5000 cells/well) in a 96-well plate in triplicates, incubated for 24 h, and treated with various concentrations of Cisplatin (0,1,5,10,20,50 µM) and ST08 (30,60nM). Cells were incubated with MTT reagent, MP Biomedicals (5 mg/ml) after 48h of incubation of cells with the drugs at 37°C and 5% CO2. Absorbance was measured at 570 nm, and the results shown are from 3 different biological replicates. To understand the effect of the combination of Cisplatin with ST08, the combination index method (38 (link), 39 (link)) was used. The combination index is calculated as follows:
where CAX, and CBX are the concentration of drugs A and B used in combination to achieve x % drugeffect. ICX,A and ICX,B are the concentrations for single agents to achieve the same effect. CI < 1 implies Synergism, CI = 1 is Additive and CI > 1 is Antagonistic effect.

Cell survival/proliferation was performed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reagent (MP Biochemicals, Santa Ana, CA). Cells (2–5 × 105) were seeded onto 6-well plates overnight and then transfected with 50 nM NC or miR-214 mimic (or 2 µg EV or PTK6) for 24 h. The transfected cells were then harvested and seeded onto 96-well plates (2.5–5 × 103 cells/well) and grown for 24, 48, or 72 h. For ibrutinib (IBT) experiments, transfected cells were seeded onto 96-well plates and treated with the indicated concentrations of IBT for 48 h. Following exposure to specific transfection/treatments, cells were incubated with 10 µl/well of MTT reagent (5 mg/ml) for 2 h at 37 °C in a cell culture incubator. Formazan crystals were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and cell survival/proliferation was quantified by reading the plates at 570 nm using a Fluostar Omega plate reader (BMG Lab Tech, Cary, NC).

The IR spectra were recorded in KBr on a Jasco 430+; the 1H NMR spectra were recorded in CDCl3/DMSO on a Bruker (400 or 100 MHz) and J values were reported in hertz (Hz) for 1H NMR. 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-2H-chromen-2-one was prepared as per the literature [77 (link)]. The LCMS spectrum of SP11 was recorded on triple-quadrupole liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) 6410 from Agilent Technologies.
Ponceau S (Sigma life Sciences, Burlington, MA, USA), Phenylmethanesulfonyl chloride (PMSF), protease inhibitor cocktail tablets (EDTA-free), Tris base, Glycine, acrylamide, and bis-acrylamide powder, DMSO, MTT reagent and all other routine chemicals were purchased from MP biomedicals, (Santa Ana, CA, USA).

Skin cancer A431, A375, A2058 and, normal skin HaCaT cells (1 × 104 cells/well) were grown in 96 plates for 18 h. Cells were treated with different concentrations of TNFα for 48 h and relative cell survival was analyzed by MTT 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reagent (MP Biochemicals, Santa Ana, CA). Similarly, in other experiments, skin cancer cells or normal skin cells (1 × 105) were seeded onto 6-well plates for 24 h and transfected with EV of TNFAIP8-Myc plasmids or control siRNA and TNFAIP8 siRNA separately for 24 h. The transfected cells were harvested, and ten thousand cells seeded onto 96-well plates 48 h. Cells were incubated with 5 µl/well of MTT reagent (5 mg/ml) for 1 h at 37 °C in a cell culture incubator. Cells were washed with PBS, formazan crystals were dissolved in DMSO, and cell survival was quantified by reading the plates at 570 nm using a Fluostar Omega plate reader (BMG Lab Tech, Cary, NC).

Cytotoxicity and Proliferation Assays of MCL Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay was used to determine the cytotoxicity and growth kinetics of the MCL cells. Briefly, 10 000 cells were incubated in a round-bottom 96-well plate in either media alone or media with diclofenac at different concentrations for various durations. Following treatment, cells were incubated with MTT reagent (MP Biomedicals) for 2 h. Cells were lysed with DMSO and optical density was measured using a microplate reader (BIO-TEK ELx-800) at 570 nm. For quantification of proliferation, BrdU incorporation was measured using Cell Proliferation ELISA, BrdU chemiluminescent immunoassay kit (Roche Applied Science, Indianapolis, IN). Ten thousand cells were incubated in a black 96-well plate with clear flat-bottom in either media alone or media with diclofenac at different concentrations for 48 h and then assessed following the manufacturer protocol. The luminescence of each sample was measured using a luminometer (SpectraMax GEMINI EM, 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.
