Notes: The authors of this study created a cDNA library representative of the extracellular proteome (secreted proteins and the extracellular domains of transmembrane proteins). Each cDNA was individually transfected into 293T cells. Medium from the cDNA of each transfection was used in a suite of cell-based assays. The CellTiter-Glo® Assay was used to screen for secreted factors from the cell lines expressing the cDNA that affected viability of twelve cell lines: human primary B cells, human primary T cells, human primary NK cells, human primary monocytes, A549 cells, Colo205 cells, U-118 cells, MDA-MB231 cells, PC3 cells, PANC1 cells, human primary skeletal muscle progenitor cells, and rat primary oligodendrocyte precursor cells.
