Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cancer cell lines (one cell line for each organ represented in the NCI-60 panel) and normal cell lines (3000-5000/well) were seeded in 96 well microplates (white plates from Nunc to block luminescence bleeding between the wells), and allowed to attach for 24 h. Then cells were incubated for 3 h with peptides (50μΜ of 9R, 9S1R and 124R), or 100 mM sodium azide as a control. After 3 h, 10 μl of a single reagent from Cell Titer Glow™ (Promega) was added to cells. For the cellular supernatant ATP content, the supernatant of each well was transferred to a new microplate and 10 μl of a single reagent from Cell Titer Glow™ (Promega) was added to each supernatant. Complete reagent mixing in 96 wells plates required gentle orbital shaking for 2–10 min. The plate reading was taken by a SynergyMx plate reader. Plate readings were exported to Microsoft Excel and Graph-PadPrism software. All the wells were analyzed in triplicates. The statistical analysis was done with the GraphPadPRISM*.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell viability was analyzed using the AlamarBlue cell viability reagent (Thermo Fisher) or CellTiter-Glow (Promega) according to the manual. Fluorescence emission was recorded with a SpectraMax iD3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (Molecular Devices). To determine whether introduced mutations into the HBEGF locus affect the proliferative capacity, we evaluated cell growth of HEK293 wild-type cells and the produced HBEGF-mutant sublines. To monitor proliferation curves, 2000 cells were seeded per well of a 96-well plate and cell confluence was recorded every 24 h for 7 days, using the Incucyte S3 live-cell analysis system (Essen BioScience). For the experiments with the HSV-TK safety switch in hiPSCs, ganciclovir (Sigma, SML2346) was included in the cell culture media at 0.1, 1, and 10 µM concentration for 3 days, followed by a 3-day recovery.

Example 90

Procedure: Uveal melanoma cell lines, 92-1 or MP41, were plated in 96 well plates in the presence of growth media (See Table 7). BAF ATPase inhibitors (Compound 87), PKC inhibitor (LXS196; MedChemExpress), or MEK inhibitor (Selumetinib; Selleck Chemicals) were dissolved in DMSO and added to the cells in a concentration gradient from 0 to 10 micromolar at the time of plating. Cells were incubated at 37 degrees Celsius for 3 days. After three days of treatment, cell growth was measured with Cell-titer glow (Promega), and luminescence was read on an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer).

Results: As shown in FIG. 2, Compound 87 showed comparable growth inhibition of uveal melanoma cells as the clinical PKC and MEK inhibitors. Further, compound 87 was found to result in a faster onset of inhibition than the clinical PKC and MEK inhibitors.

Cell Viability and Drug Sensitivity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell viability and drug sensitivity were measured using a CellTiter-Glo® Cell Viability Assay Kit (Promega) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, cells were cultured in sextuplicate in 96-well plates (∼250 cells per well) and incubated for 24 h to allow cell attachment on the surface of the wells in charcoal-stripped serum. Then, cells were exposed to different concentration of drugs. The effects on cell viability were tested when drugs present in the culture medium. On day six, cell viability was assessed by adding 100 μL per well of cell titer glow (Promega) followed by a 10 min incubation at 37 °C and measured by the amount of luminescence using a 96-well plate luminometer (GlowMax; Promega). Background was subtracted using the medium-only control wells.

High-Throughput Synergistic Drug Screening

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were plated in white-walled 384-well plates (Greiner) at predetermined optimal density. After cells were attached, drugs were added using the Tecan D300e digital dispenser. A total of 10 μmol/L phenylarsine oxide (PAO) was used as a positive control and DMSO as a negative control. Cell viability assays were performed using CellTiter-Glow (Promega) according to the manufacturer's instructions and measured in the Envision (Perkin Elmer). Growth assays were plated as multiple measurements in the 384 plates (at least quadruple) and performed several times (at least three times). Measurements were normalized to the positive and negative controls. Combination index (CI) synergy scores were calculated as described (17 (link)), and displayed are the median CI scores from the synergy matrix (5 × 5 concentration range matrix, with twofold dilution steps). CI scores are defined as <0.1 very strong synergism; 0.1 to 0.3 strong synergism; 0.3 to 0.7 synergism; 0.7 to 0.85 moderate synergism; and 0.85 to 0.9 slight synergism.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used a collection of 9 stem cell models of glioblastoma (HSR-GBM1 [23 (link)]; JHH520 [24 (link)]; NCH421k, NCH644 [25 (link),26 (link)]; BTSC-23, BTSC-233, BTSC-268, BTSC-349, BTSC-407 [27 (link)]), and exposed them to a library of clinical drugs (231 substances, each in 9 different concentrations; 4.33 nM to 25 μ M) using a semi-automated screening platform. For each cell model, repetitive drug resistance tests were performed: two biological (except for BTSC-23) and three technical replications. For each biological replication, the mean of the technical replications was used. Undifferentiated and immortalized human neural progenitor cells (ReNcell®CX, Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) and neural stem cells (H9-Derived, Gibco) were used as healthy controls to evaluate the toxicity of the drugs. Additionally, we also tested the inhibition efficiency using three different normal adult human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF-Ad, Lonza, Basel, Switzerland). Effects on cell growth were assessed 72 h after substance exposure using the CellTiterGlow® assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). All procedures were in consent with the local ethical commission oversights.
