We utilized the high grade serous and clear cell carcinoma ovarian cancer cell lines: SKOV3, ATCC (ATCC® #HTB-77™); COV362.4, Sigma Aldrich (Sigma #07071904) and OVCAR4, National Cancer Institute (RRID:CVCL_1627). Cells were maintained in: SKOV3 Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM)/Ham’s F-12 (DMEM/F12) (Thermo Scientific, #11965118); COV362.4 High glucose Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM-HG); and OVCAR4 RPMI-1640 (with sodium bicarbonate; Sigma-Aldrich, #R0883). Media was supplemented with 10% Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) (Thermo Fisher, #16000044) and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin (Thermo Scientific, #15240062) with all lines maintained at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Cell lines were verified and authenticated by the Australian Genome Research Facility Ltd. Cell counts were conducted prior to experimentation by Trypan Blue viability staining using the Countess® II viable cell count system, cells routinely tested negative for mycoplasma. 3D spheroids were formed by seeding cells into Corning® spheroid Ultra-low adhesion microplates (Sigma-Aldrich #CLS4520) with spheroid integrity, size and shape monitored by live cell microscopy to ensure uniformity across experiments. KRT14 overexpressing and knockout cell lines (LCOE/ LCKO) were generated according to the previously described methods [11 (link)].

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.
