All tumor cells used in this study were obtained from America Type Culture Collection. MDA-MB-231 cells (ATCC, Number HTB-26™), HepG2 (ATCC, Number HB-8065™) and Hela (ATCC, Number PTA-5659) were seeded in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium-high glucose (DMEM-HG, Hyclone Co.) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, GIBCO) at 37°C in humified air with 5% CO2. HCT-116 (ATCC, Number CCL-247™) and HT-29 (ATCC, Number HTB-38™) were seeded in McCoy's 5a Medium (Boster) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, GIBCO) at 37°C in humified air with 5% CO2. Cos-7 cells (ATCC, Number CRL-1651) were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium-low glucose (DMEM-LG, Hyclone Co.) containing 10% FBS (GIBCO).

HO8910, HO8910-PM, A2780, and SKOV3 cell lines were provided by the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University (Zhanjiang, China). A2780 was cultured in RPMI 1640 media (Gibco, China) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Capricorn Scientific, Germany) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (HyClone Laboratories, USA; 100 units/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL treptomycin). HO8910, HO8910-PM, and SKOV3 cells were cultured in McCoy’s 5A medium (Boster Biological Technology Co., Wuhan, China) supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 units/mL of penicillin, and 100 μg/mL of streptomycin. Cells were grown in a 37 °C incubator (Thermo, USA) with a humidified mixture of 5% CO2: 95% air. During the logarithmic phase, the cells were used for experiments.

PTX-sensitive ovarian cell lines SKOV3 and A2780, and PTX-resistant cell lines SKOV3-TR and A2780-TR were gifts from Women’s Reproductive Health Research Laboratory of Zhejiang Province (Hangzhou, China). A2780 and A2780-TR were cultured in RPMI 1640 media (Gibco, China) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, GIBCO or CellMax) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (HyClone Laboratories, USA; 100 units/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin). SKOV3 and SKOV3-TR cells were cultured in McCoy’s 5A medium (Boster Biological Technology Co., Wuhan, China) supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. To maintain the drug-resistant phenotype, SKOV3-TR and A2780-TR cells were cultured in the presence of 10 nmol/L PTX (Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceuticals Ltd., USA) and passaged for 1 week in a drug-free medium before the experiment. All cells were grown in an incubator with a humidified atmospheric air containing 5% CO2 at 37°C. The cells were used for experiments on the logarithmic phase.

Human epithelial ovarian cell lines SK-OV-3, TOV21G, OV90, and CaOV3 were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). SK-OV-3 and CaOV3 were cultured in McCoy’s 5A Medium (Boster, Wuhan, China), while TOV21G and OV90 in mixed MCDB105 Medium (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St Louis, MO, USA) and M199 Medium (Gibco, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) (1:1) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 and 95% air. The cells were transduced with CMV-Fluc-IRES-RFP lentiviral particles (GeneChem, Shanghai, China). RFP/luciferase-expressing cells were isolated by FACS and used in living imaging. ShDOT1L-1 and shDOT1L-2 shRNA lentiviral particles (GeneChem) were used to knock-down DOT1L expression, targeting 5′-CGGATCTCAAGCTCGCTAT-3′ and 5′-AGTGCTCGAATTGAGAGAA-3′, respectively. ShCON, the short hairpin RNA (shRNA) not targeting any known gene, was used as control. SK-OV-3 and TOV21G cells were transduced with DOT1L shRNA lentiviral particles, or control shRNA lentiviral particles. The cells with stable transfection were selected with puromycin.

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.
