Cell Viability Assay for Drug Screening

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were seeded in triplicate in 96-well culture plates at 2000 cells per well and grown overnight in the absence of any drug treatment. The following day, the indicated concentration of drug or an equivalent volume of DMSO vehicle control was added and the cells were grown for an additional three days. After three days of treatment, cell viability was assessed using CellTiter-Glo luminescent cell viability agent (Promega) according to manufacturer instructions. Luminescence was measured with a SpectraMax i3x multi-mode plate reader. The cell survival rate of drugged cells was normalized to the DMSO control group. The dose-response curves and IC50 values were generated using Prism (GraphPad). The BRAF inhibitors dabrafenib and vemurafenib, the MEK inhibitors trametinib and binimetinib, and the non-specific chemotherapeutic doxorubicin were obtained from ApexBio and Selleckchem.

MGHU4 and 253J bladder cancer cell lines are representative of alterations found in MIBC [16 (link),17 (link)]. Cells were cultured in Minimum Essential Medium media (Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Sigma-Aldrich). PLKO.1 TRC shRNAs were transduced using psPAX2 (Addgene plasmid #12260) and pMD2.G (Addgene plasmid #12259; see Supplementary Table 1 for shRNAs) [18 (link)]. Transduced cells were selected with 2–5 μg/ml puromycin (Sigma-Aldrich). Cisplatin, gemcitabine (Sigma-Aldrich), methotrexate, doxorubicin, vinblastine, and oxaliplatin (ApexBio) were solubilized in water or dimethyl sulfoxide. For dose response experiments, cell viability was measured using the CellTiter-Glo luminescent assay (Promega).

Senescence Modulation in iMSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The iMSCs utilized in this study were derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) (Nuwacell, Cat #RC1001, China), following the previously reported methodology [53 (link)]. To characterize the iMSCs, flow cytometry was employed to analyze the presence of typical MSC markers. The iMSCs were cultured in an incubator at 37 °C and 5% CO2 using MSC basal medium (Dakewe, China) supplemented with EliteGro™-Advanced serum-free supplement (Dakewe, China).
Doxorubicin (APExBIO, USA) was utilized to induce cell senescence in iMSCs. Specifically, iMSCs were cultured in MSC basal medium supplemented with serum-free supplement and 100 nM Doxorubicin for 2 days to obtain senescent iMSCs exhibiting altered morphology. Control samples consisted of iMSCs cultured in MSC basal medium supplemented with a serum-free supplement and PBS for 2 days.
Senolytics (ABT-263, NMN, and metformin; Absin, China) were employed to modulate the senescent phenotype of iMSC. Specifically, iMSCs (passages 12–14) were treated with these three drugs for 2 days each.

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.
