| Method |
For anchorage-dependent growth inhibition experiments, cells are plated in white 384-well plates at 1,000/20 μL/well or white 96-well microplates at 4,000/100 μL/well. After 24-h incubation at 37 °C, 5% CO2, and 100% humidity, RDEA119 is incubated for 48 hours at 37 °C and assayed using CellTiter-Glo. For the 96-well anchorage-independent growth assay, wells of an “ultralow binding” plate (Corning) are filled with 60 μL of a 0.15% agarose solution in complete RPMI 1640. Then, 60 μL of complete RPMI 1640 containing 9,000 cells in 0.15% agarose are added per well. After 24 hour, 60 μL of a 3 × drug solution in agarose-free complete RPMI 1640 are added. After 7 d, 36 μL of 6 × 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)- 2H-tetrazolium, inner salt reagent are added per well. After 2 hours at 37 °C, absorbance at 490 nm is determined on the M5 plate reader.
