Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products > HCT-116 Transfection Reagent (Colon Carcinoma) HCT-116 Cell Line Description and Applications The HCT-116 cell line originates from epithelial tumorigenic tissue taken from the colon of an adult male with a colorectal carcinoma. The cells are positive for transforming growth factor and keratin by immunoperoxidase. The HCT-116 cell line has a mutation in codon 13 of the ras proto-oncogene and as a result, the cell line has applications for PCR studies related to the colon. This cell line is used to study therapeutics associated with colon cancer.

Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products > HCT-116 Transfection Reagent (Colon Carcinoma) HCT-116 Transfection Protocol 1. Plate 10, 000 - 15, 000 HCT-116 cells per well in 0. 5 ml of complete growth medium 12– 24 hours prior to transfection 2. Wash with 1 x. PBS and add 0. 5 ml of fresh growth medium 3. Prepare transfection complexes by mixing 40 µl of serum-free medium, 5. 5 µl of transfection reagent, and • 750 ng DNA (or m. RNA), or • 30 n. M - 50 n. M of si. RNA (or micro. RNA) *Referred to a final volume including growth medium 4. Incubate transfection complexes at RT for 15 - 30 minutes 5. Optional: Add 2 µl of Complex Condenser. This reagent reduces the size of transfection complex, therefore increasing transfection efficiency; however, it may increase cell toxicity 6. Add prepared transfection complexes to 0. 5 ml of complete growth medium with HCT-116 cells (from step 2) 7. Incubate cells at 37ºC in a humidified CO 2 incubator 8. Assay for phenotype or target gene expression 48 - 72 hours after transfection Optional: Transfection efficiency can be increased by addition of Transfection Enhancer reagent. Add 2 µl of Transfection Enhancer reagent 12 -24 hours after transfection If the viability of HCT-116 cells being transfected is affected at 16 - 24 hours post-transfection, the level of cytotoxicity can be decreased by changing the growth medium and eliminating redundant exposure of cells to transfectant Altogen Biosystems 848 Rainbow Blvd #823 Las Vegas NV 89107 USA Telephone 702 349 6103 Fax 702 989 -0841 email techserv@altogen. com

Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products > HCT-116 Data Transfection Reagent (Colon Carcinoma) Figure 1. si. RNAs targeting Lamin A/C m. RNA or non-silencing control si. RNA were transfected into HCT 116 cells following the recommended protocol. At 48 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by q. RT-PCR for Lamin A/C gene expression levels. 18 S r. RNA levels were used to normalize the Lamin A/C data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are means ± SD (n=4).

Protein expression of Lamin A/C in HCT-116 cells. DNA plasmid expressing Lamin A/C or si. RNA targeting Lamin A/C were transfected into HCT-116 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
