Alectinib was synthesized by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). Erlotinib was provided by F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. (Basel, Switzerland). Infrigatinib (BGJ398), osimertinib, neratinib, and dabrafenib were obtained from LC Laboratories (Woburn, MA, USA). AZD4547 and trametinib were obtained from ChemScene (Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA). Lorlatinib, capmatinib, and lapatinib were obtained from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA). The anti-cancer compound library was obtained from TargetMol (Boston, MA, USA). All agents were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO: Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) for in vitro assays and in a 6% (w/v) solution of Captisol (ChemScene) for in vivo assays. DMSO and Captisol were used as vehicle controls. Recombinant human FGF1, FGF2, FGF7, and FGF12 proteins were obtained from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN, USA) and dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Sigma-Aldrich). Recombinant human FGF9 and FGF18 proteins were obtained from Abcam (Cambridge, UK) and dissolved in distilled water. Recombinant human FGF11 protein was obtained from LifeSpan Biosciences (Seattle, WA, USA) and dissolved in Tris buffer (Horizon Discovery, Cambridge, UK).

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.
