Normal human colon epithelial cell line (FHC) and five human CRC cell lines (HCT-116, HT29, LoVo, SW480, and SW620) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC; Manassas, VA, USA). FHC cells were cultured in DMEM/F12 medium (ATCC) containing 25 mM HEPES, 10 ng/ml cholera toxin, 5 μg/ml insulin and transferrin, and 100 ng/ml hydrocortisone. LoVo cells, HCT-116 and HT29 cells, and SW480 and SW620 cells were grown in F-12K medium, McCoy’s 5a medium modified, and Leibovitz’s L-15 medium (all ATCC), respectively. All of the media were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA). Cells were maintained at 37°C in a humidified incubator under 5% CO2 condition10 (link).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The HCT116, HT-29, LOVO, SW480, and NCM460 cell lines were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), USA. To ensure proper growth and maintenance of phenotypic characteristics, each cell line was cultured under its specific optimal conditions as recommended by ATCC. HCT116 and HT-29 cells were cultured in McCoy’s 5 A Medium modified (ATCC, USA), supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2. LOVO cells were grown in F-12 K Medium (ATCC, USA) with 10% FBS, and NCM460 cells were cultured in M3:10™ Medium (INCELL Corporation, USA) specifically designed to support their normal phenotype, at 37 °C in an atmosphere of 5% CO2. SW480 cells were maintained in Leibovitz’s L-15 Medium (ATCC, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS, at 37 °C in a non-CO2 environment (100% Air). These specific culture conditions are critical to ensure that the cells express relevant phenotypes and that gene expression and transcription processes are not adversely affected.

Cells were cultured within 6 months and were regularly tested for mycoplasma contamination using MycoAlert Mycoplasma Detection Kit from Lonza (Basel, Switzerland). The HCT116 and HT29 cells were maintained in McCoy’s 5A medium (ATCC; Manassas, VA). supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO), whereas SW480 cells were maintained in Leibovitz’s L-15 medium (ATCC; Manassas, VA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum from Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, MO). SW480, HCT116 and HT29 cells were tested by ATCC for postfreeze viability, growth properties, morphology, mycoplasma contamination and species determination (COI assay and STR analysis). The cells were maintained under standard cell culture conditions at 37·C and 5% CO2 in a humid environment. Cells were treated with fisetin (30–90 μM), 5-FU (50 μM) and their combination in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for 48 hr for all biochemical assays.

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.
