Mononuclear cells were isolated from umbilical cord blood from anonymous healthy donors by density centrifugation using Ficoll (Biocoll, Merck Millipore). Human CD34+ cells were then enriched in the sample by immunomagnetic beads using an AutoMACSpro (Miltenyi Biotec). After collection, enriched CD34+ cells were frozen in a cryopreservation medium containing 90% of fetal bovine serum (Eurobio) and 10% of dimethylsulfoxide (Sigma) and stored in liquid nitrogen.
After thawing, the CD34+ cells were cultured in a 96-well plate in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C. Cells were cultured in prestimulation medium made of XVivo (Lonza) supplemented with penicillin/streptomycin (respectively, 100 U/mL and 100 μg/mL; Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific), 50 ng/ml h-FLT3-ligand, 25 ng/ml h-SCF, 25 ng/ml h-TPO, and 10 ng/ml h-IL3 (Miltenyi) final concentration.

The AML cell lines U937, HL-60, and Molm-14 were cultured in RPMI media (Life Technologies) with 10% FBS in a Thermo Scientific cell culture incubator at 5% CO2. For Molm-14 xenografts, Molm-14 cells were cultured at 1% or 21% O2 in equal numbers before engraftment. Cell lines were obtained as previously reported15 (link); Molm-14 were authenticated by PCR for characteristic FLT3-ITD prior to engraftment. CD34+ cells were purified from cord blood using MACS cell separation (Miltenyi Biotec) and cultured in serum-free expansion media (StemCell Technologies) supplemented with 100 U/ml penicillin/streptomycin, 40 ng/ml Flt-3, 25 ng/ml SCF, and 50 ng/ml TPO (Miltenyi Biotec). Primary murine stromal cells were BM stromal cells were obtained by culturing whole BM cells isolated from the experimental animals in IMDM (Life Technologies) with 20% Vesicle-free FBS15 (link) for 4 days, then washing 2x with versene.

At day 5, the medium was replaced DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1:200 Glutamax, 50 U/ml Penicillin/Streptomycin and 100 ng/ml 2.5S NGF, and thereafter half of the medium was changed every other day. On day14, 50 μg/ml of L-ascorbic acid (Sigma Aldrich) was added to the medium to initiate myelination. For EM analysis, DRGs were cultured on Cell Disk LF (Sumitomo Bakelite Co.) coated PLL and cultrex mouse laminin I.

PBMCs were supplied commercially (AllCells) and magnetically separated with NK Cell Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotec). Upon isolation, NK cells were cultured in complete NK medium, prepared with NK MACS media (Miltenyi Biotec) supplemented with human serum (1:20), penicillin streptomycin (1:100), NK supplement (1:100, Miltenyi Biotec), and IL-2 (500 IU/ml). Cells were transferred into a 24-well G-REX (Wilson Wolf) five days after isolation, and fresh NK media was then added every 2–3 days to ensure cell health. Purity was measured by flow cytometry using Miltenyi Biotec’s CD56 REAfinity (PE-Vio770; 1:50) at day nine of the NK cell culture. Cells were used for transfection 15–18 days after isolation.

The human U87 cells line and human umbilical vein endothelial cells line (HUVECs) were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). U87 cells were grown in high glucose Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) (Gibco, Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco, Invitrogen) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco, Invitrogen). HUVECs were maintained in RPMI 1640 (Gibco, Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. All the cells were grew in 5% CO2 at 37°C.
Fresh human peripheral blood was obtained from Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, according to the guidelines approved by the ethics committee at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital. Monocyte-derived M2 macrophages were generated from human PBMC as described previously[12 (link)]. Briefly, PBMC were isolated from peripheral blood by density gradient centrifugation. After being purified by using anti-CD14 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec), monocytes were incubated in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin for 3 days. M2 macrophage polarization were obtained by removing the median and culturing cells for another 3 days in DMEM supplemented with 40 ng/ml Recombinant Human IL-4 (PeproTech).

Mixed glial cells were generated from male and female P2-7 C57BL/6 pups according to the protocol of the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (P) (Miltenyi Biotec). In short, brains were dissected, cerebellum and meninges were removed and tissue was dissociated via mechanical and papain enzyme digestion prior to filtration through a 40 μm strainer. Cells were plated in poly-L-lysine-coated (10 μg/ml, Sigma) 96 well flat, glass-bottomed plates (BD Falcon) at a density of 105 cells per well and cultures were maintained at 37°C, 5% CO2. Cells were cultured for 5 days in DMEM (Life Technologies) supplemented with PDGFαα (10 ng/ml; PeproTech), 10% endotoxin-free FCS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin and 1% L-glutamine (Life Technologies). Cells were cultured for a further 2 days in neural medium (Miltenyi Biotec) supplemented with 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 1% L-glutamine, 2% B27/MACS Neuro Brew21 (Miltenyi Biotec) and PDGFαα (10 ng/ml; PeproTech). At day 7 in culture, PDGFαα was withdrawn to allow oligodendrocyte differentiation and cells were stimulated with 5% Treg-conditioned media, rCCN3, anti-CCN3 (clone 231216) or isotype control (clone 54447) (all R&D Systems) or controls for up to 5 days.

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.
