Application: |
Induction of NF-kB as a positive control |
Cells used: |
HEK293T |
Brief Protocol: |
HEK293T cells were plated at 6x10^5 cells/well in a 6-well plate. The next day, the cells were transfected with NF-kB luciferase reporter plasmid and a house-keeping Renilla reporter plasmid as an internal control. 24-hrs post transfection, cells were treated with the TNF-a at 50 ng/ml for 2 hours. Cells were then harvested for lysis and detection of luciferase activity. |
Results Summary: |
Great fold inductions were observed when compared to the experimental samples and the negative control. |
Additional Notes: |
Works great for tissue culture and with no observable cytotoxicity. |
