The ASNase-carried PC9 or A549 stable cells depleted the asparagine in the medium and caused the cytotoxicity to the co-cultured parental PC9 or A549 cells. (a) The experimental design of the transwell co-culture assay. The doxycycline-inducible ASNase-carried PC9 or A549 stable cells were seeded in the inner chamber, and the parental PC9 or A549 cells were seeded in the outer chamber. After 48 hours of the asparaginase induction by doxycycline, the cell viability was assayed for the parental cells in the outer chamber. (b) The cell viability was compared between the doxycycline-treated and the non-treated experiments for PC9 in RPMI or DMEM medium. (c) same as (b) for A549.
