After approximately 48-h transfection, the 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay kit provided by Ribo (Guangzhou, China) was utilized to examine the proliferation of SCC-4 and CAL-27 cells. Specifically, cells were grown in culture medium containing EdU (Invitrogen) solution (1:1,000). At the proliferative stage, the cells were labeled with EdU for 2 h, followed by rinsing with PBS (0.5 g/ml) thrice. Subsequently, the cells were stained by 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) from Invitrogen for 10 min at indoor temperature in the dark and underwent PBS rinsing more than twice. Ultimately, assessment of the stained cells was implemented via the FACSCalibur DxP flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Shanghai, China).

Cell Proliferation Assays in Glioblastoma
After approximately 48 h of transfection, the 5-ethynyl-2´-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay kit provided by Guangzhou Ribo Co., Ltd., was used to examine the proliferation of U87 MG and U251 cells. Specifically, cells were grown in culture medium containing EdU (cat. no. A10044; Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) solution (1,000:1). At the proliferative stage, the cells were labeled with EdU for 2 h, followed by three rinses with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; 0.5 g/ml). Subsequently, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) was used to stain nuclei of the washed cells for 10 min at room temperature in the dark. The DAPI-stained cells were washed more than twice with PBS. Stained cells were analyzed using the FACSCalibur DxP flow cytometer (BD Biosciences).

The transfected cells were continuously cultured for 1d, 2d, 3d, 4d and 5d, further added 10 μL MTT for 4 h, 37°C. Then removed the medium, the well were added DMSO for 10 min. The OD values were determined at 490nm by a microplate reader. In addition, the ClickREdU solution (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) was added to the culture medium at a ratio of 1000: 1 and the cells, which were in proliferating phase, were marked with EdU for 2 h. Similarly, the transfected cells were washed three times with PBS 0.5 g/mL DAPI (Invitrogen, Ontario, Canada) nuclei counterstained the washed cells for 10 min at room temperature in a dark. Then the DAPI-marked cells were washed three times with PBS. All marked cells were analyzed by flow cytometer FACSCalibur DXP (BD Biosciences).

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.
