Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HAdV-F41 (ATCC® VR-930™) was grown in 50–60% confluent HEK-293 cells (ATCC® CRL-1573™) in DMEM (ATCC® 30-2002) supplemented with 1–2% FBS (ATCC® 30-2020™). Infection was done with virus at passage five at an MOI = 1. After infection, when cells show clear cytopathic effect (round up with increased nucleus size), cultures were harvested with a cell scraper and transferred to falcon tubes. Cell suspensions were centrifuged at 700× g, 4 °C for 10 min, and cells were resuspended in culture medium discharging the supernatant. Samples were subjected to three freeze/thaw cycles (−80 °C and 37 °C), then centrifuged at 1500× g, 4 °C for 10 min. Supernatants were aliquoted in small volumes and kept at −80 °C until use. To determine viral titers, an aliquot of the virus preparation was used for titration in HEK-293 cells via immunohistochemistry using the QuickTiter™ Adenovirus Quantitation Kit (Cell Biolabs, Catalog no. VPK-109, San Diego, CA, USA), following instructions by the manufacturer. Two cell types were used for the in vitro infection models: human colorectal carcinoma HCT116 cells (ATCC® CCL-247, Manassas, VI, USA). HCT116 cells were grown in McCoy’s 5A medium (ATCC® 30-2007™, Manassas, VI, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS.

Cell Culture Maintenance and Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HCT116 cells (ATCC, Manassas, VA) were maintained in McCoy’s 5A media (Gibco, Grand Island, NY) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Axenia Biologix, Dixon, CA), 100 units/mL penicillin, and 100 ug/mL streptomycin (Gibco). Mutant HCT116 cells were obtained from Dominic Hoepfner (Krastel et al., 2015 (link)). HEK293T cells (ATCC) and HeLa cells (ATCC) were maintained in DMEM (Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 units/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. All other cell lines were obtained from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia collection and were maintained as described (Barretina et al., 2012 (link)). All cell lines were tested for mycoplasma (Lonza, CH) before use and were SNP-typed to verify that their identity matched that of the originally procured sample. None of the tested lines are present in the list of cross-contaminated/misidentified cell lines (http://iclac.org/wp-content/uploads/Cross-Contaminations-v7_2.pdf). All cells were cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere.

Culturing Primary Epithelial Cells and Organoids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary human colon epithelial cells (HCEC-1CT), a generous gift from Dr. Jerry W. Shay, were cultured as described previously [14] (link). HCT116 cells were purchased from ATCC. Small intestinal organoids (SIO) were isolated, from C57BL/6 wild type (WT) and PAK1−/− (PAK1 KO) mice (purchased from MMRRC UNC, Chapel Hills, NC), and maintained as previously described [15] (link). All cells were serum starved in incomplete medium for 12 h prior to treatment with recombinant protein. Reagents (Supplementary Table S2) were applied 2–12 h prior to inflammatory cytokines. Cells were harvested at 60–70% confluency.

HCT-116 cells, a human colorectal carcinoma cell line (ATCC, Rockville, MD), were maintained in a CO2 incubator at 37°C under a humidified atmosphere (95% air, 5% CO2) in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 25 mM HEPES buffer, and 1% Pen-Strep Cocktail (Gibco BRL, Gaithersburg, MD). Cells were treated with several concentrations of HMF (25, 50, and 100 μM) for 24 h to elucidate the underlying mechanism of apoptosis-induced cell death.

Generation of HCT116 CRISPRi Cell Line

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HCT116 cells (ATCC) were cultured in McCoy’s 5a media (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco, Sigma-Aldrich) and 1X AA (Gibco). The cell line was authenticated by ATCC using short tandem repeat (STR) analysis in November 2017. All cell lines were confirmed to be free of mycoplasma contamination. HCT116 NORAD–/– cells were generated previously (Lee et al., 2016 (link)).
To generate the HCT116 CRISPRi cell line, lentivirus expressing dCas9/BFP/KRAB was produced by first seeding 6 × 105 HEK293T cells per well in a six-well plate. The following day, cells were transfected with 1.4 μg of pHR-SFFV-dCas9-BFP-KRAB (Addgene plasmid #46911), 0.84 μg of psPAX2 (Addgene plasmid #12260), 0.56 μg of pMD2.G (Addgene plasmid #12259), 8.4 μl of FuGENE HD (Promega), and 165 μl Opti-MEM (Thermo Fisher) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Medium was changed the next day. Two days after transfection, medium was collected and passed through a 0.45 μm SFCA sterile filter. Recipient HCT116 cells were transduced overnight using medium supplemented with 8 μg/ml polybrene (EMD Millipore). Cells expressing BFP were enriched by FACS and single-cell clonal lines were derived.

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.
