Visualizing Lipid Ester Synthesis in Huh7 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For fluorescence microscopic analysis, Huh7 cells precultured with 0.4 mM OA for 12 h were treated with BODIPY 558/568-C12 (Invitrogen) for 1 h to metabolically label newly synthesized lipid esters, rinsed, and cultured for another hour. For the last 2 h of incubation, 1.5 mM hydroxyurea (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the culture medium with or without 5 µM triacsin C (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.). After fixation, cells were incubated with BODIPY 493/503 to stain all LDs. For the EM method to visualize newly synthesized lipid esters, cells pretreated with OA for 12 h were cultured with 0.2 mM DHA (Sigma-Aldrich) for 8 h before fixation (Cheng et al., 2009 (link)).

HepG2 (JCRB1054), HEK293 (JCRB9068), and HeLa (JCRB9004), which were obtained from the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources Cell Bank, McA-RH7777 (ATCC CRL-1601) obtained from American Type Culture Collection, and A549 donated by Dr. Takashi Takahashi (Nagoya University) were cultured in Dulbecco's modification of Eagle medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and antibiotics at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO2. Huh7 from Dr. Eija Jokitalo (University of Helsinki) and U2OS from Dr. Hidemasa Goto (Aichi Cancer Center) were cultured in MEM and McCoy’s medium, respectively, with the same supplementations. In some experiments, OA (Sigma) in complex with fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) (Wako) at a molar ratio of 6:1 was added. BAY 13-9952 (Implitapide; Bayer Healthcare), triacsin C (Santa Cruz Biotech), CP-346086, and TM (Sigma) were purchased from respective suppliers.

Quantifying Palmitate Incorporation in Lipids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
20E4cells/mL cells were grown in RPMI complete media and supplemented with a mix containing 0.2mM nonradiolabeled palmitate (conjugated to BSA 6:1), additional 10uM BSA, 0.15uCi [1-14C] palmitic acid (mixed at 37° for 30 min). Cells were treated with 10uM Triacsin C (Santa Cruz, in DMSO) for 2 h prior to fatty acid treatment. After 6 h fatty acid treatment, cells were collected via centrifugation for 5min 1000xg and washed twice in cold PBS containing 0.5% BSA following by one wash in PBS without BSA. Lipids were extracted from cell pellets with addition of 3:2 hexane:isopropanol and 20min gentle shaking, followed by centrifugation 5min 5000xg. Lipid extracts were dried under air stream and neutral lipids were separated by TLC using hexane:diethyl ether:acetic acid (80:20:1). TLC plates were exposed to a phosphor imaging cassette and revealed by a phosphorimaging (Typhoon FLA 7000). Incorporation of radiolabeled palmitic acid into lipid classes (cholesterol esters, triglycerides, diacylglycerides and phospholipids) was measured as band intensity on TLC using Image J software. Remaining cell pellets were dried and proteins were solubilized using 0.3N NaOH in 0.1% SDS. Band intensity was normalized to protein concentration.

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.
