Every 6 × 105 IEC-6 cells were transfected with a total of 1 μg Topflash (Addgene) or negative control Fopflash (Addgene) and 0.1μg of a renilla cocktail using the Neon Transfection System (Life Technologies) according to manufacturer's instructions. The conditions used were 1350 V, 30 ms, and 2-time pulses. A total of 4 × 104 transfected IEC-6 cells were cultured in the medium with or without Me6 in a 24-well plate. After 48 h, IEC-6 cells were collected and treated with a Dual-Glo Luciferase Assay System (Promega, E2920) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The luciferase activity was detected by SpectraMax of Molecular Devices.
