Cells were plated in Matrigel-coated 96-well plates in mTeSR1 medium at a density of 10,000 cells per well. One day after seeding, cells were treated with a medium containing either the ATM inhibitor KU55933 (Sigma Aldrich, St. Lois, MO, USA), CGP3466B (Tocris, Bristol, UK), or Lats-IN-1 (LATSi, MCE, Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA) at indicated concentrations. After 1 h, Neocarzinostatin (NCS) (1:15,000, ~33 ng/mL) was added and left to rest for 1 h. The NCS was then deactivated by light exposure for 10 min. Twenty-four hours after initial ATMi administration, the medium was replaced again with fresh medium without drugs. Cell density was estimated at different time points using CellTiter-Glo luminescent cell-viability assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Luminescence was recorded using a plate reader (Plate reader Synergy H1, Biotek, Winooski, VT, USA). Luminescence reads were normalized to no treatment control.

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.
