The umbilical cord used in our study was collected after caesarean section, washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution supplemented with antibiotic-antimycotic solution and cut into small (5 mm) slices. The explants of umbilical cord were put onto the plastic flask and were cultured with special growth medium for mesenchymal stem cells (DMEM Low Glucose, Biowest, Riverside, MO, USA), supplemented with platelet lysate in a standard culture conditions under 21% of O2 and 5% of CO2 at 37 °C for 7 days. After this time, the explants were removed, and the cells were passaged using Accutase cell detachment solution (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA). After reaching the appropriate number of cells, the cells were cryopreserved in a freezing medium (BI Biological Industries, Cromwell, CT, USA) for further experiments.
The CardioCell was manufactured in a licensed GMP (good manufacturing practice)-compliant facility, ensuring that products were consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. The umbilical cords were obtained as part of the project STRATEGMED II (Agreement number Strategmed2/265761/10/NCBR/2015).
An inverted light microscope Olympus IX70 with phase contrast optics, equipped with Canon EOS1100D digital photo camera, was used for routine observation, analysis and documentation of the MSCs at a morphological level.

Bone marrow–derived macrophages (BMMs) were differentiated from stem cells obtained from the femur and tibia of a naive C57BL/6 mice. Briefly, the bones were separated from the surrounding muscles and the content of the bones was flushed with 5 ml of RPMI 1640 into a polypropylene petri dish using a syringe and a 25-G needle and made into single-cell suspensions. Following depletion of RBCs with ACK lysis buffer (150 mM NH4Cl, 10 mM KHCO3, 0.1 mM Na2EDTA [pH 7.2–7.4]), cells were seeded at a density of 25 × 106/ml in T75 ml flasks in complete RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS (VWR Seradigm), 2 mM GlutaMAX (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Corning Cat #25-000-CI), 10 mM HEPES (Sigma-Aldrich) and β-Mercaptoethanol with 25ng/mL M-CSF (Biolegend Cat# 574808) for 72 h at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator. At 72 h adhered cells reached confluency of 80-90% and non-adhered cells were washed off with PBS. BMMs were detached using Accutase® Cell Detachment Solution (Biolegend Cat# 423201) for 15 min at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator. Detached BMMS were infected with distinct parasite strains at a cell/parasite ratio of 1:10. After a 6-h incubation (at 37 °C), the cells were washed twice (centrifuged at 600 rpm for 5 min) to remove free parasites.

Adherent Culturing of Neurospheres

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To transition these primary NPA GFP+ neurospheres to an adherent phenotype, T25 flasks were first coated with 15 µg laminin in 3 ml of DPBS, enriched with CaCl2 and MgCl2 (Sigma, D8662‐500ML). Flasks were then incubated for 2 h at 37 °C under 5% CO2 conditions. Following this, the coated flasks were incubated at 4 °C to solidify overnight. Prior to introducing the glioma cells, it is essential to rinse the flasks twice with cold DPBS enriched with CaCl2 and MgCl2 to remove unbound laminin followed by one washing with DPBS without CaCl2 and MgCl2. NPA GFP+ neurospheres were then treated with Accutase cell detachment solution (Biolegend, 423 201) for 2 min to make a single cell suspension. This single cell suspension was then cultured on the laminin coated T25 flasks using DMEM medium containing 10% FBS. Notably, the cells underwent at least 5 passages before setting up any time‐lapse experiments was ensured. After these passages, we observed that the NPA GFP+ cells had begun to show collective organization patterns, particularly structures resembling oncostreams.

Murine melanoma cell lines B16F10 (CRL-6475; ATCC) were cultured in RPMI 1640 (2 mM glutamine, 100 μg/mL streptomycin, 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 1 M HEPES). Prior to the use, the cells with 70-80% confluence were detached with trypsin-EDTA (0.25%) and washed with PBS twice. For the melanoma models, C57BL/6 mice were subcutaneously (s.c.) inoculated with 1 × 106 cells of B16F10. After 7 days of tumor-cell injection, the mice were further divided in three groups and s.c. injected with PBS, FimH (2.5 mg/kg), or LPS (1 mg/kg) at the distance of the tumor (21 (link)). Total tumors were excised in a sterile dish containing 5 mL of RPMI-1640 media at room temperature (RT) and minced into small pieces using fine scissors. After filtering through a 70-μm cell strainer, the cell suspension was mixed with 10 mL of Ficoll-Paque media and then gently layered on 10 mL of fresh Ficoll-Paque media and centrifuged (1025 × g, 20 min, 20°C) with slow acceleration and the brakes turned off (23 (link)). The lymphomononuclear layer was collected and cultured for 40 min at 37°C. After three washes, the adherent cells remaining in the plate were detached by using Accutase® Cell Detachment Solution (BioLegend, San Diego, California, USA) and washed for further analysis.

To correlate changes in ST6Gal-I overexpression with alterations in cell surface α2,6 protein sialylation, cells were stained with the SNA lectin, which specifically binds α2,6 sialic acids. Accutase cell detachment solution (Biolegend; 423201) was used to suspend cells. The cells were first fixed for 20 min in 2% paraformaldehyde at RT. Following two washes with FACS buffer (1× PBS without Ca2+ and Mg2+, 5 mM EDTA, 1% BSA, 25 mM Hepes, 0.02% sodium azide), the cells were incubated for 30 min at RT with a 1:200 dilution of SNA Lectin conjugated to Cy5 (Novus Biologicals, CL-1305-NB). The cells were spun down and washed with FACS buffer and transferred to a flow tube. The BD LSR II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) was used to analyze surface staining. Mean fluorescence intensity values were calculated using FlowJo. To confirm changes in cell surface EGFR, the cells were stained with 1:40 dilution of PE Anti-EGFR antibody (Abcam; ab130738). All other treatment steps were consistent.

The pancreas was perfused through the bile duct with 250 μg/ml collagenase P (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) diluted in HBSS (Sigma Aldrich). After perfusion the pancreata were removed, cut into small pieces digested with collagenase P at 37°C for 15 minutes. After vigorous shaking for 1 min, the homogenous mixture was passed through a metal sieve and larger chunks were further broken down through grinding. Subsequently, the mixture was poured through a 70 μm cell filter allowing exocrine cells passing through, whereas islets remained retained in the strainer. The islets were transferred into Petri dishes, handpicked under a microscope and incubated 10 min at 37°C with Accutase® cell detachment solution (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) to obtain a single cell solution. The exocrine pancreas was separately incubated with DNase I (20 U/ml) (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) at 37°C for 1 hour. The obtained cells were passed through a 100 μm filter and resuspended in NH4CL red cell lysis buffer for 5 min to eliminate contaminating erythrocytes.
