All animal procedures were conducted in accordance with protocols approved by the Illinois Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. All experiments in this study were carried out in compliance with the ARRIVE guidelines. Approximately 9 × 106 MAT B III rat mammary adenocarcinoma cells (CRL-1666, American Type Culture Collection) were grown in the same media comprised of McCoy’s 5A (Modified) medium (16600082, Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 10% v/v fetal bovine serum (16140071, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and 1% v/v Penicillin–Streptomycin (10378016, Thermo Fisher Scientific), and were injected subcutaneously into a healthy rat. After 7 days, when the tumor was approximately 5 × 5 × 2 mm3, the rat was euthanized by isoflurane overdose. Approximately 15 min postmortem, the tumor was surgically resected and placed in an imaging dish containing cold saline.

Engineered HCT 116-19 Cell Line

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HCT 116 cells were acquired from ATCC (American Type Cell Culture, Manassas, VA). The HCT 116–19 was created by integrating a pEGFP-N3 vector (Clontech, Palo Alto, CA) containing a mutated eGFP gene. The mutated eGFP gene has a nonsense mutation at position +67 resulting in a nonfunctional eGFP protein. For these experiments, HCT 116–19 cells were cultured in McCoy’s 5A Modified medium (Thermo Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2mM L-Glutamine, and 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin. Cells were maintained at 37°C and 5% CO2. The eGFP targeting custom designed 72-mer oligonucleotide was synthesized by IDT (Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA).

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.
