MNNG/HOS, U‐2OS, MG‐63, and Saos‐2 were obtained from Cell Bank of Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). MNNG/HOS and MG‐63 cells were grown in α‐MEM (Hyclone), while Saos‐2 and U‐2OS were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco) containing 10% FBS (Gibco) and 1% antibiotics (Penicillin and streptomycin). All the cells were grown at 37°C in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO2.
BD obtained from Shanghai Yuanye Bio‐Technology Co., Ltd (Shanghai, China), was dissolved in DMSO (Sigma‐ Aldrich) and stored at −20°C as single‐use aliquots. BCA protein assay kit was obtained from Beyotime. Matrigel was obtained from BD Bioscience. Verapamil and STAT3 inhibitor Stattic were obtained from Selleck. Primary antibodies against N‐cadherin, GAPDH, β‐actin, and cyclin D1 were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. Antibodies against MMP‐9, MMP‐2, SHP1, STAT3, phospho‐STAT3 (Y105), JAK2, phospho‐JAK2 (Y1007, Y1008), CD133, Ki‐67, and β‐catenin were purchased from Abcam. Antibodies against Caspase 3, Bcl‐2, CDK2, CDK4, cyclin E, SOX‐2, OCT‐4, and Nanog were purchased from Proteintech.

Osteosarcoma Tissue and Cell Line Analysis

A total of 18 patients (male, 10; female, 8; age ≤18 years, 13; age >18 years, 5; tumor stage I+II, 15; tumor stage III, 3) diagnosed with OS were recruited from the Second Affiliated Hospital, Chongqing Medical University (Chongqing, China). These patients were divided into two groups (metastasis, vs. no metastasis) according to radiological results. All patients provided written informed consent. The experimental protocols were approved by the Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Chongqing Medical University. The OS tissues and the corresponding normal tissues (5 cm from the tumor margin) were obtained from resection and then immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for storage at −80°C.
The OS-derived human HOS, Saos2, U2OS and MG-63 cell lines, and the NHOst normal osteoblast cell line were purchased from Shanghai Cell Bank, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). The cells were maintained in DMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) and incubated in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 at 37°C.

Sixty pairs of OS samples were collected from the patients at the China‐Japan Friendship Hospital. All patients provided the written informed consent, and all assay procedures were conducted based on the approval of the Clinical Research Ethics Committees of China‐Japan Friendship Hospital. The correlation between circ‐0000658 expression and the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients is presented in Table 1.
The normal human osteoblast cell line (hFOB1.19) and OS cell lines (HOS, U2OS, SJSA1, Saos2 and MG63) were purchased from Shanghai Cell Bank of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). The cells were cultured in DMEM (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium; Gibco BRL, Grand Island, NY, USA) containing 10% FBS (Foetal bovine serum; Gibco, Carlsbad, CA, USA) in an incubator (Temp: 37°C; CO2: 5%).

Human hFOB1.19 osteoblasts and the osteosarcoma cell lines SAOS2 and MG63 were purchased from Cell Bank of Shanghai Institute of Cell Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). Cells were cultured in Dulbecco's minimal essential medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), streptomycin (100 μg/mL), and penicillin (100 U/mL) in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2 at 37°C. The pLKO.1 puro vector (Addgene, Cambridge, MA) with a U6 promoter was used for the construction of recombinant lentiviral plasmid encoding sh‐DRP5. The shRNA sequence was as follows: 5′‐GTGGACGCTTATGAGAAGT‐3′. HEK 293T cells were cotransfected with pLKO.1 puro and packaging vectors. The supernatant was harvested at 48 and 72 h after transfection. MG63 cells were infected with shDRP5 and shCtrl (negative control, NC) in the presence of 5–10 μg/mL polybrene; after 48 h, cells were incubated in medium with 2 μg/mL puromycin for 12 days to generate osteosarcoma‐MG63 shDRP5 stable cell lines.

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.
