DNA extractions were performed by the Nemours Center for Pediatric Research Biomolecular Core Laboratory using Standard Operating Procedures (SCR_018265). Genomic DNA was extracted from blood using the Puregene Blood Kit (Qiagen). To confirm the genetic relationship between the proband (37–1) and affected sibling (37–2) to their parents, mother (37–3) and father (37–4), we used the AmpFLSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit (ThermoFisher), containing 15 short tandem repeat loci plus Amelogenin.

The extracted DNA samples were quantified using a Quantifiler Trio Quantification kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and an Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The cycling parameters were set and data analysis was performed in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer. The samples were amplified in triplicate. The DNA concentration was adjusted to 1.0 ng/μL in a final PCR mixture volume of 25 μL. The samples with higher DNA concentrations were diluted to 1 ng/μL.
The PCR product (1 μL) was added to 8.5 μL of highly deionized (Hi-Di) formamide (Applied Biosystems, Zug, Switzerland) and 0.5 μL of 600 LIZ (20–600 nucleotide range, Applied Biosystems) Size Standard (Applied Biosystems). STR amplification was performed using 1 ng of template DNA and an AmpFLSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Amplification was performed using an ABI Prism 310 Genetic Analyzer, and the data were analyzed with GeneMapper ID software v3.2.1 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA).

Cell lines were grown in media supplemented with 10% FBS and maintained in a 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Because the reported RCC GWAS22 (link) included a combination of affected individuals with clear cell (∼90%) and papillary subtypes (<10%), the following cell lines were investigated: HK2 (ATCC CRL-2190), HEK293T (ATCC CRL-3216), ACHN (ATCC CRL-1611), SN12C, UO-31, and UOK-121 (kindly provided by Dr. W. Marston Linehan, NCI), which were grown in DMEM, and 786-O (ATCC CRL-1932), which was grown in RPMI. For hypoxia conditions, dishes were placed in an airtight chamber and flushed with 1% O2 and 5% CO2 daily and placed in a 37°C incubator. Via the MycoAlert Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Lonza), all cultures tested negative every 3 months. Cells were authenticated with the AmpFLSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit (Thermo Fisher) and compared with ATCC reference.

Pre-treatment COG P9407 infant ALL samples (25 KMT2A-AFF1, 8 KMT2A-MLLT1, 7 other KMT2A-R, 7 KMT2A-G)(12 (link), 13 (link)) and pre-treatment infant (3 KMT2A-AFF1, 2 KMT2A-MLLT1) and pediatric (12 KMT2A-G) ALL samples from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) were examined. Samples were chosen based on availability. RS4:11 (ATCC), SEM-K2 (kind gift of F. Cotter) and KOPN-8 (DSMZ Collection) cell lines were authenticated by profiling with the AmpFLSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit (ThermoFisher) and screened for mycoplasma contamination using PCR. Cell lines were maintained (103 (link), 104 (link)) and acclimated (13 (link)) as reported. Primary ALL cells and cryopreserved healthy adult PBMCs (Stem Cell Technologies or University of Pennsylvania Human Immunology Core) were acclimated overnight in RPMI-1640/20% serum substitute (BIT 9500; Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada), 10ng/mL IL-7 and SCF before basal QPCR and Western blot analyses.

Human soft tissue sarcoma cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), Korean Cell Line Bank (KCLB), and other laboratories detailed in Additional file 1: Table S1. Each cell line was grown in appropriate culture medium (Additional file 1: Table S2) with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, 16000-044) and 1% antibiotic–antimycotic 100× (Gibco, 15240-112). Cell lines were tested and validated for mycoplasma detection and human cell line authentication (STR DNA profiling) using AmpFLSTR™ Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 4322288). For IFN-γ treatment, each cell line was seeded into six-well plates and treated with IFN-γ (R&D systems, 285-IF-100; 50 or 100 ng/ml) or BSA (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 23209; 50 or 100 ng/ml) as controls and incubated at 37 °C for 48 h.

To generate regorafenib-resistant cell lines, HCT-116 and SW480 parental cells were exposed to regorafenib at the starting concentration of 3 µM and 5.5 µM, respectively, and continuously treated for four weeks. Then, an increasing regorafenib concentration (by steps of 0.5 µM) up to 6 µM and 7 µM for HCT-116 and SW480 cell lines was applied for six months. Cells were kept under the last medium conditions for another six months (Rego-12m). Cell Line Authentication was performed using STR (Short Tandem Repeat) profiling with AmpFLSTR™ Identifiler™ PCR Amplification Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). DNA isolation was conducted from a cell pellet of 106 cells and 16 independent PCR-systems were investigated and analysed (Eurofins Genomics, Ebersberg, Germany) (Supplementary Table S2).

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.
