CHO-S cells were cultured in Power-CHO medium (Lonza), containing 8 mM Ultraglutamine (Lonza), 4 mM HT-supplement and 1× antibiotic-antimycotic (Gibco) at 37°C. The cells were maintained at densities between 0.5 and 8.0 × 106 cells/mL in a shaking incubator (150 rpm).
In general, the remaining cancer cells were cultured under a 5% CO2 atmosphere at 37°C. CTLL-2 and transduced reporter CTLL-2 cells [45 (link)] were cultured in RPMI (Gibco) containing 10% FBS (Gibco), 1× antibiotic-antimycotic (Gibco), 2 mM Ultraglutamine (Lonza), 25 mM HEPES (Gibco), 50 μM β-mercaptoethanol (Sigma) and 60 U/mL IL-2 (Proleukin, Roche Diagnostics). F9 teratocarcinoma cells were cultured in flasks coated with 0.1% gelatin (Type B from Bovine Skin, Sigma), and they were cultured in DMEM (Gibco) containing 10% FBS (Gibco) and 1× antibiotic-antimycotic (Gibco). WEHI-164 fibrosarcoma cells were cultured in RPMI (Gibco) containing 10% FBS (Gibco) and 1× antibiotic-antimycotic (Gibco).
