Generating Stable Luciferase-Expressing Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CMT167 cells (12 (link)) were stably transfected with firefly luciferase as previously described (11 (link)). Lewis Lung Carcinoma Cells (LL/2) were purchased from ATCC and luciferase-expressing Lewis Lung Carcinoma cells (LLC) were purchased from Caliper Life Sciences (LL/2-luc-M38). All cell lines were periodically tested for mycoplasma infection and were last retested in February 2017. To avoid cross-contamination and phenotypic changes, cells were maintained as frozen stocks and cultured for only two to four weeks before use in experiments. Authentication of cell lines based on morphology, growth curve analysis, and metastatic phenotype was performed regularly, and no phenotypic changes were observed through the duration of the study.

Stable Luciferase-Expressing KRAS Mutant Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CMT167 cells were stably transfected with firefly luciferase, as previously described (24 (link)). Luciferase-expressing LLC cells were purchased from Caliper Life Sciences (LL/2-luc-M38). The CMT167 cells harbor a KrasG12V mutation, and the LLC cells harbor a KrasG12C mutation (24 (link)). Both cell lines were maintained in DMEM with 4.5 g/l glucose (no. 10–017-CV; Corning) containing 10% FBS, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 500 μg/ml G418 at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Cells were periodically tested for mycoplasma infection, maintained as frozen stocks, and cultured for only 2–4 wk before use in experiments. Authentication of cell lines based on morphology, growth curve analysis, and metastatic phenotype was performed regularly. Human NSCLC cell lines were maintained in RPMI 1640 (no. 10–040-CV; Corning) containing 10% FBS at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. All were KRAS mutant.

CMT167 cells (13 (link)), originally provided by Dr. Alvin Malkinson (University of Colorado), were stably transfected with firefly luciferase as previously described (12 (link)) and maintained in DMEM with 1 g/L glucose containing 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, MEM Non-Essential Amino Acids, 10 mM HEPES, and 500 μg/mL G418 at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Luciferase-expressing Lewis Lung Carcinoma (LLC) cells were purchased from Caliper Life Sciences (LL/2-luc-M38) and maintained in DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose containing 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 μg/mL streptomycin, and 500 μg/mL G418 at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Both cell lines were periodically tested for mycoplasma infection and were last retested in October 2016. To avoid cross-contamination and phenotypic changes, these cell lines have not been maintained in long-term cultures. All cells used in this study were maintained as frozen stocks and cultured for only 2–4 weeks before use in experiments. Authentication of these cell lines based on morphology, growth curve analysis, and metastatic phenotype was performed regularly, and no phenotypic changes were observed through the duration of the study.

NSCLC Cell Line Establishment and Validation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NSCLC cell lines, including A549, Calu-3, SK-MES-1, PAa, NCI-H292, NCI-H520 (H520), NCI-H596, NCI-H1299, NCI-H1650, NCI-H1975, HLAMP and 95D were obtained from cell banks of Shanghai Institutes of Biological Sciences (Shanghai, China) or Fu Erbo Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Guangzhou, China). Murine lung carcinoma cell line LL/2-luc-M38 was provided by Caliper Life Sciences, Inc (Massachusetts, USA). Subcutaneous tumours-derived cells were primarily cultured and primary normal lung epithelial cells were obtained instructed by the protocol of previous report51 (link). NSCLC cell lines were maintained in DMEM medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (HyClone, Logan, UT) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen). The BEAS-2B immortalized human bronchial epithelial cell line (Shanghai Institutes of Biological Sciences, Shanghai, China) was cultured in LHC-9 medium as instructed by the provider. All cell lines were
authenticated by short tandem repeat fingerprinting at IDEXX RADIL (Columbia, MO, USA) and Services at SYSU Forensic Medicine Lab (Guangzhou, China), and were free of mycoplasma contamination.

Primary Tumor Cell Isolation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549-luc, BXPC-3-luc, HT-29-luc, Hela-luc, MDA-MB231-luc, NCIH460-luc, PC-3M-luc, and LL/2-luc-M38 cell lines were all purchased from Caliper Life Sciences. U87MG-luc cells were generated by our group previously [35 ]. The primary culture was derived from freshly isolated tumor cell from patients of two primary lung cancer or two primary breast cancer individually, in Beijing Shijitan Hospital of Capital Medical University. The consent was obtained from the patients before sample collection. The study complied with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Biomedical Research Ethics Committee of Beijing Shijitan Hospital of Capital Medical University. Briefly, tumors were placed into RPMI1640 medium with antibiotics and anti-fungal immediately following resection. Specimens were washed with cold PBS repeatedly to remove blood clots and tissue debris, and then minced into 0.5- to 1.0-mm pieces. The tissue pieces were digested with collagenase IV, Dnase I and hyaluronidase. Then cells were washed and passed through a 70 μm cell strainer to obtain single-cell population. All agents for cell culture were from Gibco Company (Gaithersburg, MD, USA). Beige-SCID Mice (8 to 10 weeks) were purchased from Vital River Laboratories (VRL, Beijing, China).

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.
