Kyse510

The human ESCC cell lines KYSE-30, KYSE-150 and KYSE-510 were from the JCRB cell bank (Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources cell bank) and cultured in RMPI 1640 (GIBCO) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, GIBCO) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (GIBCO) at 37 °C with 5% CO₂. Vero cells (ATCC-CCL-81) were cultured in DMEM (GIBCO) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, GIBCO) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (GIBCO) at 37 °C with 5% CO₂.

Fresh tumor tissues were obtained from ESCC patients. Samples were diced, digested with digestive juice containing 1 mg/mL collagenase type I (Sigma-Aldrich, S.t. Louis, MO, USA), 1 mg/mL collagenase type IV (Sigma-Aldrich), filtered, then resuspended in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM)/F-12 Medium (Gibco, Carlsbad, CA, USA), supplemented with 5% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS, Gibco). The culture medium was changed every 3 days. Fibroblasts were removed by incubation with 0.05%Trypsin/EDTA. The primary patient-derived tumor cells were named SBRC-EC01 and SBRC-EC02. For the experiments described here, all cells were used in passages 10 to 16. The cell lines KYSE510, KYSE180, KYSE270 and other ESCC cell lines were obtained from the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources Cell Bank (JCRB, Osaka, Japan), and passaged in Roswell Park Memorial Institute-1640 (RPMI 1640, Gibco) with 10% FBS. The human kidney epithelial cell line HEK-293 was purchased from the Cell Bank of the Type Culture Collection Committee of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China) and maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS. All cells were verified free of mycoplasma and bacterial contamination.

A total of 21 ESCC cell lines, specifically KYSE30, KYSE70, KYSE140, KYSE150, KYSE180, KYSE270, KYSE410, KYSE450, KYSE510, KYSE590, KYSE890, KYSE1170, KYSE1260, KYSE1440, NUEC2, TE1, TE2, TE3, WSSC, TT, and TTn, along with Het‐1A, a non‐cancerous epithelial cell line, were purchased from the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources Cell Bank (Osaka, Japan), the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA), or were established at Nagoya University.
