Cell culture conditions Unless otherwise stated, cells were cultured with DMEM (Sigma Aldrich; #D6429) and 4.5 g/l glucose, phenol red, 10% FBS, and 1% penicillin/streptomycin with pH 7.4 and were incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO2, and 95% relative humidity. Wild-type HepG2 (#300198), HEK293 (#300192), and MCF-7 (#300273) were derived from CLS…

1. Introduction Typically, tumors in patients with ovarian cancer (OC) are often diagnosed at an advanced stage [1]. Currently, cytoreductive therapy with platinum-based chemotherapy is the mainstay of disease management, to which the majority of patients with OC initially respond. Unfortunately, 70% of these patients eventually develop refractory recurrences [2]….

These plasmids were created by your colleagues. Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator, cite the article in which the plasmids were described, and include Addgene in the Materials and Methods of your future publications. For your Materials & Methods section: pSpCas9(BB)-2A-tomato SOX2-sgRNA was a gift from Jürgen Knoblich (Addgene plasmid #…

Cell lines and tissue culture The murine 17-CL1 cell line (derived from 3T3 cells, BEI Resources, Cat. No. NR-53719) was maintained in Dulbecco Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM, Life Technologies) supplemented with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS, Gemini Bio-Products), L-glutamine (Invitrogen), and Sodium pyruvate (Invitrogen). The NCTC clone 1469 cell line…

INTRODUCTION Genomic instability often refers to the existence of a variety of DNA alterations, ranging from single nucleotide changes (such as base substitution, deletion, and insertion) to chromosomal rearrangements (e.g., gain or loss of a segment or the whole chromosome) (1). Loss of genome stability can lead to early onset…
