The NSCLC cell lines, H460 and H2126, were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC; Manassas, VA, USA). The 2 cell lines were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 mg/ml streptomycin (all from HyClone; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) at 37°C with 5% CO2. BKM120 (a selective PI3K inhibitor; S2247), LY294002 (a pan-PI3K inhibitor; S1105), MK-2206 (an AKT allosteric inhibitor; S1078), BEZ235 [a dual PI3K/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) catalytic inhibitor; S1009], PF-2341066 (a MET inhibitor; S1068) and stattic (a STAT3 inhibitor; S7024) were obtained from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA), and dissolved in DMSO. Specific small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) for p110α (si-p110α; 100 nM; cat. no. 6359S), AKT (si-AKT; 100 nM; cat. no. 6211S) and MET (si-MET; 100 nM; cat. no. 6618S) were obtained from Cell Signaling Technology Inc. (Danvers, MA, USA). Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000® in Opti-MEM (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). Cells were transfected with an individual siRNA or treated with an inhibitor for 24 h prior to subsequent experimentation.

Cell Culture and Stimulation Protocol

16HBE, A549, NHLF, HFLF, H520 and H2126 (Table 1) cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD). 16HBE, NHLF and HFLF were cultured in complete growth media comprised of Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Invitrogen) containing 4 mM L-glutamine (Invitrogen), while A549, H520 and H2126 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 (Invitrogen). All cell-lines were supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum (GIBCO Invitrogen), 100 IU/ml penicillin and100 µg/ml streptomycin. The cells were maintained in a humidified atmosphere in 5% CO2 at 37°C and were subcultured by incubating with 0.05% trypsin-0.5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetate (Invitrogen) at a ratio of 1∶3 – 1∶4, weekly.
For cell stimulation purposes, cells were incubated in serum-free media (Invitrogen) as serum has been shown to stimulate B1R expression. Normal cell culture media was replaced with serum-free media for 12 hr prior to the start of stimulation, the cells were then washed once with 1X PBS before being incubated in the absence and presence of the B1R agonist desArg10KD (DAKD)(Sigma Aldrich) at 100 nM and 1 µM or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)(Sigma Aldrich) at 0.1 µg/µl, for 3, 6 and 24 hr.

NSCLC Cell Line Collection and Maintenance

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Eight NSCLC human cell lines (A549, H1299, H1563, H1437, H661, H2126, H1573, and H1975) were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Rockville, MD). A normal human bronchial cell line, HBEC3-KT, was a gift from John Minna (UT-Southwestern). Cells were maintained in complete media with 10% FBS, antibiotics/antimycotics and not passed continuously more than 4 weeks. All cell lines were originally authenticated by ATCC.

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.
