A tetracycline-based inducible system was chosen for conditional gene expression. Briefly, plasmid pTet-on (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA) was transfected into RT112 and UMUC3 cells using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), followed by selection of stable clones in 300 μg/ml G418 (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA). pTRE2-pur containing p15, p16, p15-N/p16-C or p16-N/p15-C was then transfected into pTet-on-stably transfected RT112 or UMUC3 using Lipofectamine 2000 and stable clones were selected in the presence of puromycin (Gibco) (0.8 μg/ml for RT112 and 1.2 μg/ml for UMUC3).
Rt112
The RT112 is a real-time PCR thermal cycler designed for DNA amplification and quantification. It features precise temperature control and rapid ramp rates to ensure accurate and reliable results. The RT112 supports a wide range of sample volumes and can accommodate multiple plate formats.

Bladder Cancer Cell Lines Cultivation
Bladder Cancer Cell Line Transfection
The si-PFK-1 and PFK-1 overexppressing plasmids and their negative control were synthesized by Gemma Shanghai. UM-UC-1 and RT112 cells were grown at 90% fusion. Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 3000 regent according to the instructions. The culture medium was changed 6 h after transfection, and PCR was performed to detect transfection efficiency at 24–48 h after transfection.

Establishing RCC Cell Lines for Research
Cell lines. RCC cell lines 786-O, Caki-1, Ketr-3, RT112 and T24, as well as the normal renal epithelial cells Ect1/E6E7 were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Gaithersburg MD, USA). The 786-O, Ketr-3, RT-112 and T24 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, Rockville, MD, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco). The Caki-1 cells were cultured in McCoy's 5A medium containing 10% FBS, and Ect1/E6E7 cells were cultured in EMEM medium (Gibco) containing 10% FBS. All cells were cultured in incubators at 37˚C in a 5% CO 2 atmosphere.
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.
