Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A monolayer of the HepG2 cell line (BCRC 60025) was obtained from BCRC. The cells were maintained in Eagle's minimum essential medium with 10% foetal bovine serum and 50 U/mL penicillin-streptomycin solution (Gibco, Grand Island, NY) at 37°C and 5% CO2. HepG2 cells were subcultured in 10 cm dishes (Corning Costar) to 80% confluence. Since HepG2 cells are highly dependent on a high concentration of exogenous fatty acids to maintain an adequate supply of lipids for lipoprotein assembly [20 (link)], we investigated the LAB-SCS effect on apo B and triglyceride (TG) secretion in cells incubated with oleic acid (OA). OA was provided as a complex with bovine serum albumin (BSA). The OA/BSA molar ratio was 8 : 1, and the concentrations were 0.81 mmol/L for OA and 0.1 mmol/L for BSA [21 (link), 22 (link)].
HepG2 cells (105 cell/mL) were incubated in 24-well plates (Corning Costar) with or without 100 μL LAB-SCS per well overnight in an incubator (37°C, 5% CO2). At various time points (12, 24, 36, and 48 h), cells were harvested from the plate, lysed in 1% Triton-X 100, and then sonicated for 15 sec. The lysates were centrifuged and the supernatants were collected to measure the apo B and TGs concentrations using an apo B ELISA kit and a glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase and phenol 4-aminoantipyrine peroxidase method (GPO-PAP) kit (RANDOX, Antrim, UK).

The human endometrial adenocarcinoma cell line, the Ishikawa cell line [92 (link)], was obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) (Manassas, VA) [93 (link)]. The primary tumor-derived endometrial adenocarcinoma cell lines originated from patients with Stage IC Grade 3 (ACI-181), Stage IIB Grade 2 (ACI-52), and Stage IIIC Grade 2 (ACI-80) International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging (gift from Dr. Risinger, Michigan State University, Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, Michigan State University, Grand Rapids 49503, MI, USA) (Supplementary Table 1). All cell lines used in this study are identified as having endometrioid histologic characteristics and were grown-maintained as previously described [74 (link), 75 (link)]. In brief, cells were grown in phenol red free-DMEM (Cellgro-Mediatech, Inc., Manassas, VA, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS (Atlanta Biologicals, Lawrenceville, GA, USA) and 2 mM L-Glutamine (Quality Biological Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA). These cells were maintained at 37°C with humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 until 90–100% confluence was reached. Cells were subsequently passaged in a 1:5 ratio into 10-cm dishes (Costar, Corning, NY, USA).

After transfection and curcumin treatment, cell protein was extracted and protein concentration was measured using BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Protein lysates were loaded and separated on 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gels, then transferred 2 h in cold transfer buffer. Membranes were blocked in 5% fat-free milk for 2 h at room temperature and then incubated with primary antibodies and secondary antibodies as described previously.33 (link) Protein bands were visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and Image Lab™ software 4.1 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, CA, USA). The protein bands were analyzed as a percentage of β-actin levels.
For Co-IP assays, cells were cultured in 10 cm dishes (Corning) and divided into untreated (mock) and curcumin-treated groups for 48 h. The cells were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer (Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology) on ice for 30 min, and precleared with protein-G agarose beads (Sigma) for 4 h at 4°C. Lysates were then incubated overnight at 4°C with anit-Gli1 or anti-β-catenin primary antibodies, on a rotating wheel. The next day, antibody-antigen complexes were analyzed by Western blotting as described.

U2OS cells were purchased from ATCC (Lot# 58078676) and were maintained in McCoy’s 5 A modified medium (Gibco Life Technologies, UK) supplemented with 10% charcoal-stripped fetal bovine serum. FBS (Gibco Life Technologies, UK) was stripped overnight using 5% charcoal.
U2OS cells on the 6-well plate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were transfected with 5 μg total plasmid DNA and ViaFect (Promega). For the determination of the dissociation constant for GR homodimerization, 5 μg pEGFP-GR/WT, its mutants, or 0.1 μg pEGFP and 4.9 μg empty vector were transfected. For elucidating the transcriptional activity in single cells, 1 μg pEGFP-GRs, 4 μg pMMTV-mKO2, and 0.1 μg pTagRFP675 were transfected. For in vitro DNA binding analysis by FCCS and electrophoretic mobility shift assay, U2OS cells on 10 cm dishes (Corning) were transfected with 15 μg pEGFP-GRs by ViaFect. At 6 h after the transfection, the cell culture medium was exchanged with fresh medium, and the U2OS cells were then cultured for 18 h.
To analyze single cells, individual transfected U2OS cells were seeded into microwells on the surface of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chips (Fig. 1(a))14 (link). The cell suspension with 3.0 × 104 (cells/mL) was poured on the PDMS chips after washing with detergent water. Cells were incubated to adhere cells to PDMS chips for 4 h.

hPSCs were cultured in 125-mL disposable spinner flasks (Corning, VWR) on a nine-position stir plate (Dura-Mag) at a speed of 65 rpm, in a 37°C incubator with 5% CO2, which is a higher speed than previously reported (Rigamonti et al., 2016 (link)). Before adaption to spinner flask culture, hPSCs were expanded in 10-cm dishes (Corning) until they reached confluence. Cells were dissociated using Accutase (Innovative Cell Technologies) for approximately 5 min at room temperature or until colonies detached from the plate. Cells were counted using a Bio-Rad automated cell counter. Forty million individual hPSCs were seeded into a spinner flask in 120 mL of StemFlex medium supplemented with 10 μM ROCK inhibitor Thiazovivin (STEMCELL Technologies). Spheres formed spontaneously, and, after 48 h, approximately half of the culture medium was replaced. The cells were maintained as undifferentiated pluripotent spheres in spin culture, with medium changes every other day until the spheres were approximately 500 μm (organoid area was measured using Nikon software in brightfield).
