The invasive activity of PANC-1 cells was determined with xCELLigence® technology (ACEA Biosciences, San Diego, supplied by OLS, Bremen, Germany) as outlined in detail in previous publications [39 (link),40 (link)]. The lower side of the CIM plate-16 porous membrane was coated with a 1:1 mixture (v/v) of collagen I and collagen IV (30 μL) to facilitate adherence of the cells and thus enhance the duration of signal recording. Prior to cell seeding, the surface of the upper chamber was covered with a thin monolayer of 5% (v/v) growth factor-reduced Matrigel (BD Biosciences, Heidelberg, Germany) diluted 1:20 with basal medium, as detailed elsewhere [72 (link)]. After the Matrigel solification, each well was loaded with 60,000 or 80,000 cells in standard growth medium (see above). Cells were allowed to settle in the laminar flow hood for 30 min at RT, after which the assay was started and run for 24–48 h. Data acquisition (with signal recording every 15 min) and analysis was performed with the RTCA software (version 1.2, ACEA).

Real-Time Cell Proliferation Assay

The xCELLigence technology (ACEA Biosciences Inc.) allows the Real Time Cell Analysis (RTCA) of cell proliferation without chemical interference. The RTCA instrument was used to assess the proliferation of different cell models overexpressing or invalidated for PK. All the experiments have been done after a titration assay that allowed us to determine the optimal cell seeding density for each cell line. After an automatic scan of the plate to check for proper contact of the E-plate, the background impedance for each well of the plate was measured before the cells were plated and incubated for 30 min at 37 °C and 5% CO2 to allow their settling in an evenly distributed pattern. The E-plate 16 was then put in the cradle pocket of the RTCA apparatus and the data acquisition was initiated. The impedance signals were recorded every 5 min for the first 25 scans (2 h) and every 15 min until the end of the experiment (up to 72 h).
In a subset of experiments, in order to determine the impact of secretates on the proliferation of murine glioblastoma GL261, cells (40,000 per well) were plated on an E-plate 16. Two-three hours after seeding, cells were treated without changing the media with extemporaneously produced secretates (50 µg of proteins) of TSM1 EV or PKWT cells. The proliferation was recorded as described above.

To further investigate effect of tryptase on mast cell migration, a coculture system with HMC-1 and HMEC-1 cells was established. Migration of HMC-1 cells was assessed by using E-16-well plates and the xCELLigence technology (Acea Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) [17 (link)]. Briefly, 165 μL medium solutions containing tryptase at 0, 0.3, and 1.0 μg/mL with or without leupeptin (1.0 μg/mL) were added in lower chamber of E-16-well plates, respectively, and incubated for 1 h. For the upper chamber, 30 μL HMEC-1 cells (6 × 104 cells/well) were seeded in, and cells grew for 1 h. Anti-human ICAM-1 antibody (50 μL) was then added in specified wells and cultured for 15 min. This was followed by seeding 50 μL HMC-1 cell suspension (6 × 104 cells/well). All control wells received only the equal volume of medium. The HMC-1 migration number, expressed as a cell index value, was monitored for 48 h. Cells in the lower chamber were collected for flow cytometric analysis of HMC-1. The experiments were conducted in duplicate and repeated 4 times.

Cell Proliferation and Viability Assays

Cell proliferation was assessed using E-16-well plates and xCELLigence technology (Acea Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA, distributed by Roche).19 (link) Cell growth was monitored for 72 h. Microelectrodes, placed on the bottom of plates, were used to detect impedance changes proportional to the number of adherent cells and expressed as the cell index. The impedance value of each well was automatically monitored by the xCELLigence system and expressed as a cell index value. The experiments were conducted in triplicate and repeated twice.
For viability assays, melanoma cell lines were plated in 96-well plates at 5000 cells/well in complete medium. 24 hours after plating, varied doses of inhibitors were added in triplicate. 0.1% DMSO was used as negative control. Cell viability was evaluated after 72-hour incubation with drugs using Alamar Blue fluorescent assay (Life Technologies).

Cell proliferation was assessed using E-16-well plates and the xCELLigence technology (Acea Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA, distributed by Roche Diagnostics) [35 (link)]. Briefly, cells (1 × 103 A375 cells/well) were seeded in E-16-well plates in complete medium and grown for 48 hours. Inhibitor drugs were then added as single agents or in different combinations (B-RAF inhibitor [GSK2118436] plus MEK inhibitor [GSK1120212], BRAF inhibitor plus AurkA inhibitor [MLN8054], MEK inhibitor plus AurkA inhibitor [MLN8054] or triple-combination of all three drugs) and the cell growth was monitored for an additional 72 hours.

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.
