Cell counting kit
The Cell Counting Kit is a laboratory equipment designed to quantify the number of cells in a sample. It provides a simple and reliable method for determining cell concentration, which is crucial for various cell-based experiments and applications.

Cell Proliferation and Colony Formation
For EDU assay, EDU labeled solutions (KeyGen Biotech) was used. Nuclei staining was carried out using DAPI.
For colony‐formation assays, single‐cell suspensions were first prepared by the trypsinization of different cell cultures and then seeded into 6‐well plates at 150 cells/well for an incubation of 14 days at 37°C. For the calculation of cell number in each colony, the formed visible colonies were subjected to methanol fixation and then 0.5% crystal violet staining. We counted and recorded the colonies with more than 50 cells for statistical analysis.

Cell Proliferation and Migratory Assays
Transwell migration and invasion assay. A total of 1x10 4 cells were transfected with miR-30a-5p mimics or inhibitor for 48 h. The transfected cells were then suspended in a 500 µl serum-free medium and seeded onto a Transwell membrane (Corning Inc., Corning, NY, USA) precoated with Matrigel (BD Bioscience; San Jose, CA, USA). The lower chamber was filled with a 500 µl growth medium containing 10% FBS, which served as a chemoattractant. The cells were cultured at 37˚C for 24 h. The non-invading cells on the top well were gently scraped off. Subsequently, 0.4% crystal violet (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) was used to stain the invaded cells on the lower filter side. Cell invasion was evaluated under the microscope (Olympus Corp., Tokyo, Japan). For migration assay, Transwell membranes were not precoated with Matrigel. Other steps are the same as invasion assay.
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.
