Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 4. MEMP impact on cell cycle control. (A,B) Cell cycle distribution of malignant U373, HeLa and MC- 38-Luc cell lines, and (C) low tumorigenic A9, HaCaT, CV-1 and COS-1 cell lines, after MEMP modulation treatments ( ). The profiles were obtained by FACS Calibur flow cytometry (BD Science), and cell cycle progression was based on DNA quantification. Cells were modulated for 5 min, then collected at 48 h afterward, fixed and stained with the PI/RNase buffer (BD Pharmingen).
Article Snippet: The origin of our cell lines was as follows: COS-1 (CRL-1650), CV-1 cells (CCL-70) from African green monkey kidney, HEK-293T cells (CRL-3216) (Human embryonic kidney cells), and A9 mouse fibroblasts (CRL-3265), were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC); U373 MG (HTB-17) human glioblastoma astrocytoma was purchased from ATCC; the MC-38-Luc cells, derived from MC-38 cell line (SCC172, SigmaAldrich), C57BL/6 murine colon adenocarcinoma cells and stably expressing luciferase gene, were generated in our laboratory as described below; HeLa cells (CCL-2) from human cervical carcinoma were obtained from the ATCC; and the HaCaT human keratinocyte cell line was kindly provided by Dr. Miguel Quintanilla (Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas “Alberto Sols”, Madrid, Spain).
