Growth-inhibitory effects of varying concentrations of 6-thio-dG in combination with etoposide (VP-16, Selleckchem, USA), doxorubicin (Merck, Germany) or ceritinib (LDK378, Selleckchem, USA) on neuroblastoma cell lines with TERT rearrangements (CLB-GA, GI-ME-N), high TERT expression (SH-SY5Y) or MYCN amplification (BE(2)-C, IMR-32, Kelly, LS, TR-14) were determined after 96 h of substance incubation using CellTiter-Glo®. A semi-automated substance screening protocol was established on a Biomek 4000 Automated Workstation (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). Single or combined compounds in nine different concentrations and DMSO as control were added in triplicates 24 h after the cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 3000 cells/well. Cell viability was measured after 96 h of substance incubation using a CellTiter-Glo® (CTG) Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). In brief, 100 µl CTG-reagent was added to the wells and incubated for 30 min at room temperature. Signals were measured using a SpectraMax® i3x Multi-Mode microplate reader (Molecular Devices, San Jose, CA, USA). Drug synergy was calculated according to the Chou-Talalay combination index method [17 (link), 18 (link)].

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.
