Establishing Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The luc-SKOV-3 ovarian cancer cell line was provided by Dr. Michael Birrer (University of Arkansas), and the OVCAR-8 cell line was provided by Dr. Geeta Mehta (University of Michigan). The OVCAR-8 cell line was tagged with luciferase using retroviral infection with Firefly Luciferase Lentivirus Puromycin (Amsbio, MA). Luc-SKOV-3 and -OVAR-8 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 1× medium supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco; Waltham, MA), and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (ThermoFisher Scientific; Waltham, MA).

Measuring Intracellular ROS Levels

Intracellular ROS levels were quantified using the cell permeant indicator CM-H2DCFDA. Briefly, A549 cells were seeded at a density of 4×104 cells/well in a black 96-well plate. After 24 h, the culture medium was changed to 10% FBS-containing phenol red-free RPMI-1-1640 medium (Gibco; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and cells were treated with genipin and elesclomol or transfected with UCP2 siRNA. Following incubation with 10 µM CM-H2DCFDA at 37°C for 30 min, fluorescence was measured using a GloMax®-Multi Detection System microplate reader (Promega Corporation) at 490 nm excitation and 510–570 nm emission wavelengths.

Spleen lymphocytes were prepared as the previous study reported.27 Briefly, the spleen was grinded in the complete RPMI 1 × 1640 medium (Gibco, Palo Alto, USA) with 10% FBS and 1% PS, the red blood cell (RBC) was lysis by erythrocyte lysis buffer (0.15 M NH4Cl, 10 mM KHCO3, 0.1 mM Na2EDTA, pH7.2), then the suspensions filtered through a 70 μm nylon mesh, and washed by PBS with 1% FBS and counted through a microscope.
The method of isolated hepatic lymphocytes as previously described with some modifications.27, 28 Briefly, after anesthetization, the liver was perfused with 10 mL of sterile PBS through the portal vein, and subsequently excised and cut into small pieces, digested in the buffer contained with collagenase IV 5% (Sigma‐Aldrich) and 100 μg/mL DNase I (Roche Life Science) at 37°C for 30 minutes. Then, the liver suspensions were passed through 70 μm nylon mesh and centrifuged at low speed (60 × g, 2 minutes) to remove hepatocytes. The hepatic lymphocytes were separated using 35% Percoll (Sigma‐ Aldrich) by centrifuging at 600 × g for 20 minutes. Lymphocytes were collected and lysis in erythrocyte lysis buffer to remove RBC.

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.
