Cell Line DNA Fingerprinting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA was isolated using a QIAamp DNA mini kit from 5–6 × 106 cells was isolated (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) following the manufacturer’s protocol. The isolated DNA was eluted in elution buffer (100μl) (Buffer AE, Qiagen). The concentration of the DNA and it purity was measured by Nanodrop. Cell line authentication was done by using DNA (50ng) for DNA fingerprint analysis of short tandem repeat profiling (PowerPlex 1.2, Promega, Madison, WI).
Fingerprinting results for each cell line were compared to reference fingerprints provided by Dr. Minna or the ATCC.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Thirty-two patients with MCL were diagnosed according to WHO lymphoma classification [48 ]. The study was performed in accordance with protocols approved by the local ethical committee, and all patients gave their informed consent. Mononuclear cells of 6 patients (Supplementary Table S1) were isolated from unicellular suspension obtained from mechanically minced lymph nodes or spleen. Cells were re-suspended and enriched MCL samples (>70% MCL) were cryopreserved in 10% DMSO until further study. Mino, SP53 and Jeko-1 cell lines, all carrying the t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation, were generously contributed by Dr. Raymond Lai, University of Alberta and Cross Cancer Institute (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada). Z-138 cell line was generously contributed by Dr Bertoni F., IOSI Oncology Institute of Southern Switzerland, (Bellinzona, Switzerland). Cell lines were authenticated in our lab by fingerprinting (Power Plex 1.2, Promega) in January 2011 and in March 2015. All cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS; Lonza), 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 20 mM L-glutamine (Sigma), and maintained in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C.

Ewing sarcoma cell lines (n = 21) were obtained from multiple sources: L-1062 and L-872 were established in-house [21 (link)]; CHP100, RM-82, IARC-EW7, TC32 and 6647, CHP100, RM-82, IARC-EW-7, WE-68, IARC-EW-3, STA-ET-2.1, TTC-466, STA-ET-10, CADO-ES1, TC-71, VH-64, COH and STA-ET-1 were obtained from the EuroBoNeT consortium collection (Institute of Pathology, University Medical Center, Düsseldorf, Germany) [22 (link)] and SK-ES-1, SK-NM-C, A-673 and R-D-ES from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). All cell lines and primary culture L-4027 were cultured in a monolayer under equal conditions and in Iscove’s modified Dulbecco’s medium containing GlutaMAX supplement, supplemented with 1 % streptomycin/penicillin and 10 % heat-inactivated FCS (all from Life Technologies, Bleiswijk, The Netherlands). Authentication of cell lines using Powerplex 1.2 and CellID STR (Promega, Leiden, the Netherlands) and mycoplasma DNA Q-PCR screening were regularly performed on all cell lines.

NSCLC cell lines were established by Dr J.D.Minna and Dr A. Gazdar at the National Cancer Institute and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (Dallas, TX) or were obtained from ATCC. They were maintained in RPMI-1640 (R8758, Sigma Life Science), supplemented with glutamine, 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (Gibco) and 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Sigma Life Science) in a humidified chamber at 5% CO2. All cell lines were authenticated between 2009 and 2011 using STR profiling (PowerPlex 1.2, Promega, Madison, WI) for at least eight different loci and results were compared to reference STR profiles available through ATCC or provided by Dr Minna at UTSW. Following authentication, cell line stocks were frozen and maintained in liquid nitrogen until they were used in the reported experiments. All cell lines were mycoplasma- tested prior to experiments.

Cancer Cell Lines Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells A549, H2009, HCC 2429, HCC 4017, H23, and HCC 15 were supplied by John Minna (Hamon Cancer Center, UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX). The breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was kindly provided by Michael White (Department of Cell Biology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Dallas, TX). All cancer cell lines were cultured in basal medium supplemented with 10% Cosmic Calf Serum (Thermo Scientific) at 37°C in 5% CO2. All cell lines used in the present studies were mycoplasma free (e-Myco kit, Boca Scientific) and DNA fingerprinted (PowerPlex 1.2, Promega). All cells were compared to the complete database in our own collection and to that of ATCC. All cell lines are commercially available through the ATCC Cell Systems (Gaithersburg, MD).

Mino, SP53, and Jeko-1 cell lines were contributed by Dr. Raymond Lai. Cell lines were authenticated by fingerprinting (Power Plex 1.2, Promega) in January 2012. All cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS heat-inactivated, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 20 mM L-glutamine. Proliferation experiments were performed after an overnight starvation (2% FBS), with or without 30 ng/ml TLR1/2 ligand, or 150 ng/ml TLR5 ligand.

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.
