A375, 293T, SKMEL-19, and WM266.4 cells were grown in DMEM with 10% FBS. A375 and 293T cells were acquired from the ATCC. WM266.4 cells were acquired through the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (20 ). SKMEL-19 cells were a gift from N. Rosen (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY). GSK1120212, GSK2118436, VX-11e, and AZD6244 were obtained from Chemietek. PLX4720 was obtained from Selleck. SCH772984 was synthesized by J & W PharmLab. Lentiviral production and infection were performed as previously described (19 (link)).

NVP-BEZ235 (BEZ235), NVP-BKM120 (Buparlisib, BKM120), GSK1120212 (Trametinib, JTP-74057), PD0325901, and AZD6244 were purchased from Chemie Tek (Indianapolis, IN). Temozolomide, doxorubicin and paclitaxel were purchased from Sigma. For in vivo studies, BEZ235 and BKM120 were resuspended in NMP (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone):PEG300 1:9 v:v, and GSK1120212 and PD0325901 were resuspended in 0.5% hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose (Sigma):0.2% Tween 80 (Sigma) (Gilmartin et al., 2011 (link); Kinross et al., 2011 (link)). BKM120, GSK1120212 and PD0325901 were given once daily by oral gavage at 10 ml/kg. Mice were treated with BEZ235 on a 5 days on, 2 days off schedule (Liu et al., 2009 (link)). Vehicle- and drug-treated mice were closely monitored on a daily basis for clinical signs as described above.

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.
