Cell viability assays were performed using WST-8 (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions18 (link). Cells were cultured in 24-well plates. Twenty-four hours after treatment with the indicated concentrations of A419259 (Tocris Bioscience), SKI-1 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), PP2 (Cayman Chemical, MI, USA), saracatinib (Santa Cruz) or bosutinib (abcam), cells were incubated with the WST-8 substrate for 2–3 h, after which the absorbance of the wells was measured at 450 nm using a plate reader (2300 EnSpireTM, PerkinElmer, Yokohama, Japan). The number of live cells was determined using a Countess cell counter (Invitrogen) after cultures were stained with trypan blue. Toxicity assays were performed using the Cytotoxicity Detection Kit PLUS (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN). Twenty-four hours after treating the cells, 100 μL of the medium were removed from the plate and used in the assay. The medium was incubated with the substrate for 15 min and spectrophotometrically assayed at 490 nm using a plate reader. To activate the Src vector, we used MLR1023 (#4582) (Tocris Bioscience, Bristol, UK).

Silencing MINDIN and β-Catenin in Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
TRAMP-C1 and MC3T3-E1 cells were silenced with a mixture of three siRNA (each at 20 nM) against different coding sequences of mouse MINDIN (s97640; s97638; s87252; Life Technologies) or with two siRNAs against different coding sequences of mouse β-catenin (s63418; s63419; Life Technologies, each at 20 nM), respectively, using Lipofectamine RNAiMax (Life Technologies) overnight at 37°C, following the manufacturer's instructions. A scrambled sequence (control siRNA-A; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used as a negative control for evaluating RNAi off-targeted effects, and in order to verify the accuracy of gene-specific siRNA-dependent changes in different parameters evaluated. Efficiency of MINDIN or β-catenin silencing, assessed by real-time PCR, represented 85% 48 h after transfection and 60% up to 15 days after transfection (data not shown).
To inhibit focal adhesion kinase (Fak) and Src kinase addition of 1 μM Fak inhibitor 14 (Merck) and 1 μM saracatinib (Santa Cruz) for 24 h was performed when appropriate, respectively.

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.
