HT29 cells were grown in RPMI containing 1% Pen-Strep (VWR, K952–100 ML) and 10% FBS+ (Atlas Biologicals, F-0500-D), and plated in a 10 cm plate (VWR, 10861–696). At ~70% confluence, cells were treated with GDA at 500 nM and compound 5 at 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 μM for 24 h. The cell extracts were harvested in 1X RIPA buffer (Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.; Danvers, MA), containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors (Roche). Lysates were centrifuged at 12,000g for 25min at 4°C. Protein concentrations were determined by a BCA protein assay (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). The samples were then boiled in sample loading buffer and equal amounts of samples were resolved on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel and then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (PVDF) and immunoblotted with the corresponding specific antibodies. Membranes were incubated with an appropriate horseradish peroxidase-labeled secondary antibody, developed with a chemiluminescent substrate, and visualized using Biorad Chemidoc imaging system.

HUVECs were cultured in Endothelial Cell Growth Medium-2
supplemented with the supplement mix (PromoCell). Pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1
cells were cultured in alpha minimum essential medium
(α-MEM, Sigma) supplemented with 1%
penicillin–streptomycin (hereafter termed as 1% pen–strep, VWR
International) and 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hyclone Laboratories
Inc.) as the growth medium. Cultures were maintained at 37 °C in a
humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Medium was refreshed every
2–3 d. Sub-confluent cells were harvested using 0.05%
trypsin–EDTA, collected by centrifugation, and then resuspended to a
desired density prior to seeding. Cell seeding was performed in 24-well TCPS
plates at a predestined concentration and cultured at 37 °C for an
indicated time.

In vitro experiments were performed with mouse aortic endothelial cells (iMAECs, provided by H. Jo at Emory) (29 ), HEK cells (HEK293, GenTarget), iMAECs stably transduced with CAG-SpCas9–enhanced GFP, produced in the Dahlman Lab, or mouse aortic endothelial cells (C57E κB-GFP) (provided by M. Schwartz at Yale). In all cases, cells were maintained at 37°C and 5% CO2 and cultured using previously established conditions. In all cases, cell media was supplemented by penicillin-streptomycin [penicillin G (500 U/ml) and streptomycin (0.5 mg/ml)] (PenStrep, VWR) and 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS; VWR). HEKs were passaged with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) F-12 50/50 (Corning). iMAECs were passaged using DMEM with glucose (1 g/liter), l-glutamine, and sodium pyruvate (Corning), supplemented by 1% (v/v) MEM nonessential amino acid solution (MEMNEAA, Sigma-Aldrich) and endothelial cell growth supplement (25 μg/ml; EMD Millipore). C57E κB-GFP was passaged with EGM-2 media (Lonza).
Unless otherwise noted, cells were seeded in a 24-well plate at a density of 40,000 cells per well with 500 μl of media per well. Twenty-four hours later, LNPs were added with a total RNA dose of 50, 150, or 250 ng per well. Initial experiments done with L2K used a total RNA dose of 400 ng per well.

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.
