Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For AlphaLISA, 10000 cells/well were seeded on a 384-well plate (#6005350, Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) using the MultiFlo FX Microplate Dispenser. The next day, cells were treated with LPS (L9143-02, Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA) at a final concentration of 10 µg/mL, the plates were then incubated at 37 °C for 4 and 24 h, and the TNFa concentration was measured using AlphaLISA (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA) on the Spark reader (Tecan, Männedorf, Switzerland) and the AlphaScreen module as per the manufacturer’s protocol. The CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) microplate assay was used to measure cell viability. Before the LPS challenge, cells were pre-treated for 1 h with the following drugs purchased from Selleckchem: AZD6244, SCH772984, MS-275, EX527, EPZ-5676, EPZ-6438, ORY-1001, RVX-208, OTX015, and (+)-JQ1 targeting the chromatin-associated proteins MEK 1/2, ERK 1/2, HDAC 1/2/3, SIRT1, DOT1L, EZH2, LSD1, BRD 2/3/4, BRD2/3, and BRD4 (Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA), respectively, at the concentrations of 5, 1, 0.2, 0.04, 0.008, 0.0018, and 0.00032 µM. Drugs were dispensed using the Microlab STAR unit (Hamilton, Reno, NV, USA), while the transfer and media dilutions for the AlphaScreen readout were performed with the CyBio SELMA liquid handler (Analytic Jena, Jena, Germany). Measurements were performed in 12-plicate.

Colon Cancer Mouse Models and Treatments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal experiments were performed following protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of National Cheng Kung University (approved number: 109214). C57BL/6, NOD/SCID, and ApcMin/+ male mice were maintained under standard conditions. The colon carcinogenesis mouse model was induced by AOM/DSS as described previously (22 (link)). In the orthotopic transplantation human colon tumor model, the 8-week-old NOD/SCID male mice were anesthetized and the hygromycin-resistant HCT116 (1 × 105) cells with stable overexpression of different constructs carrying GFP reporter in 50 μl of PBS (mixed with Matrigel at 1:1) were injected into the cecal wall. Selective MMP-2 inhibitor, ARP100 (5 mg/kg per day; Cayman Chemical, 13321), was delivered by an intraperitoneally implanted osmotic minipump (Alzet, model 2004). 5-FU (10 mg/kg, 5 days/week), BRD3 inhibitor, RVX-208 (10 mg/kg, 5 days/week, Selleckchem, S7295), or vehicle control was given by intraperitoneal injection. Tissues were harvested 1 month after surgery. All animal experiments were performed following protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.

J-Lat C11 cells24 (link),26 (link) (established in our lab) and A10.6 cells29 (link),54 (link) (obtained from NIH AIDS Reagent Program) harboring latent, transcriptionally competent HIV-1 provirus that encodes GFP as an indicator of viral activation were cultured in RPMI1640 medium (Gorning) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Gibco), 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Gibco) in a 37 °C incubator containing 5% CO2. For in vitro reactivation experiments, C11 cells or A10.6 cells were stimulated with RVX-208 (Selleckchem), PFI-1 (Selleckchem), JQ1 (Selleckchem), SAHA (Sigma-Aldrich), prostratin (Sigma-Aldrich) or TNF-α (Sigma-Aldrich) respectively and subjected to determine GFP expression using flow cytometry (BD Calibur).

PFI-1, RVX-208, LDC000067 (CDK9 inhibitor)38 (link), and flavoripidol (RNA Pol II inhibitor)39 (link) were purchased from Selleck Chemicals. JQ1 and (−)-JQ1 were purchased from MedChem Express. Antibodies to BRD4 (Abcam, ab128874), CDK9 (Santa Cruz, sc-13130), phospho-histone-3 (Ser10), acetyl-histone-3 (K56) (Beyoyime, Nantong), GAPDH (Bioworld Technology) were obtained commercially. The anti-CAR monoclonal antibody RmcB was from ATCC (CRL-2379). Rabbit antiserum to Ad2 hexon (GenScript, Nanjing), and to Ad2 penton base (ABmart, Shanghai) were prepared using commercial sources. Horse radish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
OVCAR-5 (5000 cells/well) and CaOV3 (7500 cells/well) cells were plated in 96-well plates in respective growth media. After 24 h, cells were treated with control media (DMSO, 0.06%), apabetalone (1-80 µM, RVX-208, catalog number S7295, SelleckChem, Houston, TX, USA), carboplatin (5-200 µM, Hospira, Australia) or apabetalone (80 µM) + carboplatin (5-200 µM) for 72 h. Cell survival was assessed by MTT assay as per the manufacturer’s instructions (Sigma Aldrich)[42 (link)]. Curve fitting using log(inhibitor) vs. normalized response - variable slope (Graph Pad Prism, Prism®, version 8.0.0, CA, USA) was used to calculate the carboplatin IC50 in the absence and presence of apabetalone. Combination index was determined according to the Chou-Talalay method[43 (link)] using CompuSyn software (ComboSyn, Inc. New Jersey, USA). Drug interactions were considered synergistic, additive or antagonistic with combination index values of < 1, 1 and > 1, respectively.

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.
