Lung Cancer Cells Transfection Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lung cancer cells (H1299 and A549) and human bronchial epithelioid cells (HBE) were obtained from the BeNa Culture Collection (Beijing, China). These cells were propagated in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM: Invitrogen) mixed with 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen) and 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco) at an atmosphere of 37°C with 5% CO2. H1299 and A549 cells were treated with 2‐MeOE2 (Sigma‐Aldrich).
Cells were transfected with lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen). All plasmids and oligonucleotides including the circ_0010235 overexpression vector (circ_0010235) and its control pCD5‐ciR, the small interfering RNA (siRNAs) targeting circ_0001955 (si‐circ_0001955) and si‐NC, miR‐34a‐5p mimics, miR‐NC, miR‐34a‐5p inhibitor (anti‐miR‐34a‐5p), anti‐miR‐NC, NFAT5‐overexpressing plasmid (NFAT5) and matching negative control (pcDNA) were synthesized from GenePharma.

Human melanoma cell line MDA-MB-435S was purchased from the Cell Bank of Type Culture Collection of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). Cell lines were cultured in DMEM growth media (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) which was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Life Technologies) and maintained at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere at 5% CO2. DCA and 2-MeOE2 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).

Hypoxia-induced EPO-Luc Reporter Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were stably transfected with plasmid Epo-Luc plasmid. EPOhypoxia response element (HRE)-luciferase reporter plasmid contains three copies of the HRE consensus sequence from the promoter of the erythropoietin gene in the pGL3 vector. Cells (1 × 10 4 ) were seeded the day before the assay. The next day, the cells were stimulated with the test compounds at different concentrations (100, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1563, 0.781, 0.391, and 0.95 μM). 2-MeOE2 ( ≥ 99 %; Sigma-Aldrich) was used as a positive control at a concentration of 0.5 µM. After 72 h of stimulation in hypoxic conditions (1 % O 2 ), the cells were lysed in 25 mM Tris-phosphate pH 7.8, 8 mM MgCl 2 , 1 mM DTT, 1 % Triton X-100, and 7 % glycerol during 15 min at RT in a horizontal shaker. Luciferase activity was measured using a GloMax 96 microplate luminometer (Promega) following the instructions of the luciferase assay kit (Promega). The RLU was calculated and the results are expressed as percentage of inhibition induction/inhibition of EPO-luc activity. Experiments for each concentration of the test items were done in triplicate wells.

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.
