For AlphaLISA, 10000 cells/well were seeded on a 384-well plate (#6005350, Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) using the MultiFlo FX Microplate Dispenser. The next day, cells were treated with LPS (L9143-02, Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA) at a final concentration of 10 µg/mL, the plates were then incubated at 37 °C for 4 and 24 h, and the TNFa concentration was measured using AlphaLISA (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) on the Spark reader (Tecan, Männedorf, Switzerland) and the AlphaScreen module as per the manufacturer’s protocol. The CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) microplate assay was used to measure cell viability. Before the LPS challenge, cells were pre-treated for 1 h with the following drugs purchased from Selleckchem: AZD6244, SCH772984, MS-275, EX527, EPZ-5676, EPZ-6438, ORY-1001, RVX-208, OTX015, and (+)-JQ1 targeting the chromatin-associated proteins MEK 1/2, ERK 1/2, HDAC 1/2/3, SIRT1, DOT1L, EZH2, LSD1, BRD 2/3/4, BRD2/3, and BRD4 (Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA), respectively, at the concentrations of 5, 1, 0.2, 0.04, 0.008, 0.0018, and 0.00032 µM.

A total of 100,000 cells were seeded in 96‐well tissue culture plates, in 200 μl culture medium containing the indicated concentration of inhibitor. Two inhibitors were used: SGC‐0946 (Structural Genomics Consortium) and EPZ‐5676 (Pinometostat; Selleck Chemicals). Cell viability was determined after three days, as described above. Data were normalized, with the maximum of each cell line to 100% and background fluorescence set to 0%.

Y79 and Weri-Rb1 cells were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA), and maintained in RPMI-1640 containing 10% FBS and penicillin–streptomycin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) with routine testing for mycoplasma. EPZ5676, MS-275, and ciclopirox (CPX) were purchased from Selleck (Houston, TX, USA). These drugs and etoposide (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). When cells were treated with drugs for a longer time up to 8 days, drugs were replenished every two days under nonsaturating culture conditions. Adenoviruses for HMGA2 expression (VH893703) were purchased from Viagene Biosciences (Rockville, MD, USA). Lentiviral knockdown for DOT1L and HMGA2 was performed using the TRC lentiviral shRNA clones from Horizon Discovery (St. Louis, MO, USA) and the mature antisense sequences are as follows:

For long-term clonogenic assays, cells were counted and plated in low density in six-well plates and treated with different concentrations of EPZ004777 (Epizyme) or EPZ5676 (Selleckchem). After 12 days, colonies were fixed and stained with crystal violet and photographed. To assess cell viability, cells were plated in 10 cm culture dishes and treated with DMSO control or EPZ for 10 days. Media was replenished every 3–4 days. On day 10, cells were trypsinized, counted and replated in 96-well plates (5000 cells per well).

Cas9-expressing MLL-AF9 cells were virally transduced with the designated constructs (RFP+ ipUSEPR lentiviral sgRNA constructs listed in Supplementary Fig. 6; YFP+ MIY retroviral DOT1L variant cDNA constructs listed in Supplementary Fig. 9) in 96-well plates at ~50% infection and monitored using flow cytometry for RFP or YFP (FP). At each time point, live cell counts and the percentage of FP+ cells (FP%) were obtained by high-throughput flow cytometry and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (Invitrogen) dye exclusion using an Attune NxT flow cytometer with an autosampler (Thermo Fisher).
The relative proliferation (RP) of FP+ (sgRNA- or DOT1L cDNA-expressing) vs. FP (non-transduced) cells was defined as: RelativeproliferationRP=Nt×FP%t×Nd3×100FP%d3Nd3×FP%d3×Nt×100FP%t where N(t) and FP%(t) are the observed live cell number and FP+% at time point t; d3 denotes the day 3 time point.
The resistance index was defined as: Resistanceindex=RP(x,m)RP(con,m)×100% where RP(x,m) is the RP of cells expressing sgRNA or DOT1L cDNA variant x under m µM of EPZ5676 (Selleck Chemicals) on day 9; con denotes the sg-Luc or wild-type DOT1L cDNA.

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.
