Cells were cultured at 5,000 cells/well in a 96‐well plate in triplicate for 24 hr, followed by treatment with varying doses of free or encapsulated drugs alone or in combination. Cell viability was determined at 96 hr using the CellTitre Glo assay (Promega) on a Tecan microplate reader. Immunofluorescence was performed as previously described.75 Briefly, to detect HR, COV362, OVCAR4, and OVCAR8 cells were plated at 6.0 × 104 cells on 18‐mm PLL‐coated glass cover sides in 12‐well plates for 24 hr and then treated with 10 μM free or encapsulated drugs for 24 hr. The cells were costained with anti‐rabbit RAD51 (H‐92, sc‐8349, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, TX) and anti‐mouse phosphorylated γH2AX (Ser139), (#JBW301, Millipore, CA) primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Protein expression was detected with anti‐rabbit IgG Alexa Fluor 647 and anti‐mouse IgG Alexa Fluor 488 (A‐21121, Invitrogen) secondary antibodies with DAPI (0.1 mg/mL) nuclear counterstaining for 2 hr at ambient temperature.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the chemotherapy treatment, Cisplatin (Tocris, 5B/266434) and Etoposide (Sigma, 099M4892V) were used. The drugs were added to the wells containing 7-day old SCLC tumors at a concentration equal to their respective half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50). To calculate the IC50, the tumors were treated with Cisplatin and Etoposide, singly and in combination, in a range of 0–100 µM, for 72 h. Upon reaching the end point, cell viability was determined via Cell-Titre-Glo assay (Promega) according to manufacturer’s protocol for viability determination. From the concentration and corresponding viability values, IC50 was calculated using Graphpad Prism (version 9) software. All treatments were done in triplicate.
To study cancer relapse after chemotherapy treatment, we measured cell viability by image analysis and using Cell-Titre-Glo kit (Promega) to detect metabolically active cells. All readings were taken in triplicate at 7-day intervals for a duration of 0–38 post-drug treatment days.

Optimized number of U87MG, A172, U118, T98G and E98 cells (3 × 103 to 5 × 103) were seeded in white 96-well plates (Perkin Elmer) and allowed to attach. After 24 h, cells were treated with determined concentration of chemical compounds for 24–72 h. Cell viability was measured using a CellTitre Glo assay (Promega) according the manufacturer’s instructions. Luminescence was read with BioTek Synergy H1 plate reader (BioTek, Country). Bioluminescence was normalized and presented as a per cent of the control.
Cell viability for glioma stem cells was seeded into 96-well plates 5 × 103 cells/well and allowed to attach overnight. Next day medium was changed into a medium containing drugs. After 72 h of treatment medium was changed into fresh NSC+/+ containing 10% of Alamar blue solution (10099022, Fisher Scientific). Fluorescent signal was measured after 210 min of incubation in 37°C using Wallac Victor 1420 plate reader (Perkin Elmer). Fluorescence was normalized and presented as a per cent of the control.

Cryopreserved primary human hepatocytes were purchased form BioreclamationIVT (Brussels, Belgium), who obtains and distributes consented human material from a network of institutional review board (IRB) approved collection sites under adherence to effective ethical and regulatory guidelines. The cells were thawed according to manufacturer’s instructions, and cultured at a density of 35’000 cells/well in 96-well BD BioCoat Collagen 1 plates (Becton Dickinson, Bedford, MA). Cells were exposed to test compounds or vehicle (0.1% DMSO) after over-night pre-culture in William’s Medium E (Sigma-Aldrich, Buchs, Switzerland) supplemented with Penicillin/Streptomycin (Life Technologies, Zug, Switzerland).
Cell were harvested 3 h after test compound addition by removing the culture medium. Cell lysates in 50 μl RLT buffer (QIAGEN, Hombrechtikon, Switzerland) were immediately frozen and stored at −80°C.
Intracelluar ATP content was assessed 24 h after test compound addition using the CellTitre-Glo assay (Promega, Dübendorf, Switzerland).
Cell integrity was assessed by the release of the intracellular enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) into the cell culture supernatant 24 h after test compound addition using the Cytotoxicity Detection Kit (Roche Diagnostics, Rotkreuz, Switzerland).

LNCaP and C4–2 were purchased from ATCC (ATCC.com). LAPC4 and LREX were provided by Dr. Sawyers, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. LNCaP, C4–2, 22Rv1 and LREX cells were cultured in RPMI1640+GlutaMAX (Gibco, Life Technologies), 10% FBS (Gibco, Life Technologies), 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Corning). LAPC4 cells were cultured in IMDM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin. For androgen deprivation in vitro studies, 10% charcoal stripped serum (CSS) (Gibco, Life Technologies) was used in place of 10% FBS. All cell lines were tested for mycoplasma contamination (PCR Mycoplasma Detection; primer sequence in Supplementary Table 1) every 6 months. LuCaP PDX models (provided by Dr. E. Corey and Dr. R. Vessella, Washington University) were grown in organoid culture in advanced DMEM/F12 media with supplements, as previously published (18 (link)). For in vitro studies, ipatasertib (Chemietek) and enzalutamide (Selleckchem) were dissolved in DMSO. CellTitre Glo Assay (Promega) was used to assess cell viability. For in vivo studies, ipatasertib (Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis, NCI Developmental Therapeutics Program) and enzalutamide (DCTD, NCI DTP) were dissolved in 1:1 of labrasol (Gattefosse) to PEG400 (Sigma).

PHH was plated at 1 × 105 in 96-well collagen-I-coated plates. At 24 and 168 h, serial concentrations (0–20 mM) of rotenone (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) were made in DMSO (Fisher Scientific). Then, the compound solutions were added to culture media at 1/200 (v/v) ratio to make final dosing concentrations of 0–100 µM (0.5 % v/v DMSO). Culture media were removed and replaced with the media containing rotenone. Following incubation for 2 h (37 °C, 5 % CO2), ATP content was assessed using the CellTitre-Glo assay (Promega, Madison, WI), according to the manufacturers’ instructions. Briefly, 30 µl of ATP reagent was added to each well containing 100 µl of media. The plate was shaken (1 min), and then, 100 µl of the well content was transferred to a white 96-well plate, and the ATPase luminescence was measured using a plate reader (Varioskan, Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA). Results were presented as percentage of control.

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.
