iECs were derived using a three-dimensional approach with modifications 10 (link). Briefly, to initiate differentiation, iPSCs were cultured in ultra-low, non-adhesive dishes to form embryoid body (EB) aggregates in EBM2 media (Lonza) in the absence of leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF). After 4 days of suspension culture, the EBs were reattached onto 0.2% gelatin-coated dishes and cultured in EBM2 medium supplemented with VEGF-A165 (50 ng/mL; PeproTech). After 3 weeks of differentiation, single cell suspensions were obtained using a cell dissociation buffer (Life Technologies) and labeled with APC-conjugated CD31 (eBiosciences) and PE-conjugated CD144 (BD Biosciences) anti-mouse antibodies. iECs were purified by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) of CD31+CD144+ population. iECs were maintained in EBM2 media supplemented with recombinant murine vascular endothelial growth factor (50 ng/ml).

Subcutaneous matrigel plugs were digested for 60–90 minutes at 37 °C in an enzymatic cocktail composed of 25 μg/ml DNase-I, grade II (Roche, cat no. 10-104-159-001), 3 U/ml Dispase (Roche, cat no. 10-269-638-001), 3 U/ml Liberase TM Research grade (Roche, cat no. 05-401-119-001) and 25 μg/ml Hyaluronidase Type IV-S (Sigma, cat no. H3884). The isolated cells were filtered through a 70 μm Nylon cell strainer (BD Falcon, Bedford, MA) into a sterile 50 ml centrifuge tube and cells washed 3X with FACS Buffer (1X PBS without Ca/Mg, 2 mM EDTA and 0.5% BSA).
Isolated cells were analyzed by flow cytometry to determine their cellular characteristics. FITC-conjugated F4/80 (eBioscience, cat no.11-4801) and APC-conjugated CD31 (eBioscience, cat no. 17-0311) were used to distinguish endothelial cells from macrophages with additional labeling using eFluor450-conjugated CD34 (eBioscience, cat no. 48-0341), PE-conjugated CD-133 (eBioscience, cat no. 12-1331) or PERC-P conjugated CD45 (eBioscience, cat no. 45-0451). Antibodies were incubated with isolated cells in FACS buffer for 30 minutes at 4 °C in darkness. Cells were washed 3X with FACS buffer and fixed in 1% PFA in PBS for 10 minutes at room temperature in the absence of light. Fixed cells were washed in PBS and resuspended in 400 μl of FACS buffer for flow cytometry. Experiment performed three times.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
