All tissue samples were obtained from patients treated at The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Each patient signed an informed consent form, and this study was approved by the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University Institutional Review Board. Tissues samples were collected from OC patients with unilateral ovarian invasion and normal contralateral ovary, including 17 cases of high-grade serous carcinoma, 2 cases of mucinous cystadenoma and 1 case of mucinous carcinoma. Human OC cell lines (A2780, SKOV3, OVCAR3) and a normal ovary cell line (IOSE80) were purchased from the Cell Bank of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). All cell lines were authenticated using the short tandem repeat (STR) profiling test. Then, IOSE80, A2780, OVCAR3 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 Medium (Biological Industries, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Biological Industries, USA), 100 units/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Biological Industries, USA).

Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen Life Technologies) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. For gene‐silencing experiments, to eliminate untransfected cells, 24 hours after transfection, transfected cells were selected by using puromycin (final concentration: 1.2 µg/mL) for 36 hours.
For overexpression experiments, cells were transfected with 2 µg of indicated overexpression vector. Twenty‐four hours later, mRNA and protein samples were collected and subjected for further analysis.
For double‐silencing experiments, cells were transfected with 1 µg of indicated shRNA expression vector. Cells were subjected to puromycin selection to eliminate untransfected cells. mRNA and protein were collected 36 hours after puromycin selection. For NeuroD1‐silenced HCT116 cells, NeuroD1, p53‐double silenced HCT116 cells or control stable cell lines, cells were transfected with the indicated vectors (total 2 µg) and selected with puromycin.

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.
