The human osteosarcoma cell lines, U2OS, SaOS2, and MG63 were purchased from the Korean Cell Line Bank (KCLB, Seoul, Korea). KHOS/NP cells were kindly provided by Chang-Bae Kong (Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Korea Institute of Radiological and Medical Science) [27 (link)]. The cells were cultured in DMEM media containing 10% FBS (Gibco BRL, Gaithersburg, MD), and 10% penicillin/streptomycin (100 U/mL) at 37 °C in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator. The PARP inhibitor, olaparib, was purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (sc-302017, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) and doxorubicin was obtained from Sigma (D1515, Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Short interfering RNA (siRNA) for PARP1 and negative control siRNA duplexes were purchased from Santa Cruz biotechnology (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA). The cells were transfected using Lipofectamine® RNAiMax (Invitrogen, Life technologies, Carlsbad, CA).
