The ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV-3 and CAOV-3 were obtained from the ATCC, Manassas, VA. SKOV-3 and CAOV-3 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 supplemented with 10% FBS. Cells were plated in 12-well plates (1 × 105 cells/well). When they reached approximately 50% confluence, the cells were treated for 2 days with paclitaxel (PAC), fenofibric acid (FA) or their combination at concentrations detailed in legend of Figure 8. The attached cells were trypsinized and cell numbers/well were quantified with a Coulter counter.

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.
