Human hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2, HLF and HLE, as well as HEK-293T (human embryonic kidney cell) were from Dr Shuguo Sun's lab. SK-Hep-1 cells (Procell # CL-0212) were purchased from Procell. HepG2 and SK-Hep-1 are P53-WT while HLF and HLE carry P53-G244A according to The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia. HepG2, HLF and HLE, as well as HEK-293T were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (Gibco #12800-082) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum(PAN, Germany. #ST30-3302). SK-Hep-1 cells were cultured in MEM (Procell #PM150410) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. All cell lines were maintained in 37 °C incubator with 5% CO2. Cycloheximide (Sigma #C7698), MG132 (MCE # HY-13259), or doxycycline hyclate (MCE #HY-N0565B) was added to cell culture at a final concentration of 50 μg/ml, 25 μM, and 1 μg/ml respectively where indicated. ML-323 was added at 8 μM, 16 μM, or 32 μM as specified in the text.

LX-2 cells (HSC cell line) (Procell, Wuhan, CN) were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) (ATCC, Rockville, MD, USA) were cultured in complete 1640 medium. SK-hep1 cells (Procell, Wuhan, CN) were cultured in complete MEM. Primary HSECs (ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA) were cultured in complete ECM with 10% endothelial cell growth supplement (ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA). For in vitro knockdown, FN-EDA-siRNAs, CD63-siRNA and control siRNA (Biosune, Jinan, CN) were transfected into HUVEC or LX-2 at 30 pmol/ml (12 well plate). For in vitro reoverexpression of CD63, the ORF of CD63 in pEnter and vector plasmid control (Biosune, Jinan, CN) were transfected at 1.5 μg/ml (12 well plate) one day after CD63-siRNA transfection each group were harvested 84 hours in total. Transient transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 3000 (Life Technologies; Gaithersburg, MD) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The target interfering sequences are listed in Table 2.

Lentiviral Transduction of Endothelial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human HSECs (ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA) were cultured in ECM with 10% foetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and 10% endothelial cell growth supplement (ScienCell). Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Rockville, MD, USA) were cultured in Hams F12k medium with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. SK-HEP-1 cells (Procell, Wuhan, CN) were cultured in MEM with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin.
Lentiviral transduction tagged with GFP to downregulate or overexpress NRP-1 was performed in HSECs, HUVECs, and SK-HEP-1 cells according to the instructions from the manufacturer using 20 MOI of lentivirus-encoding target genes. All assays were performed 72 h after transfection. Transduction efficiency was confirmed via a confocal microscope. Protein/mRNA knockdown or overexpression was confirmed by western blot/qRT-PCR analysis.

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.
