Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For construction of organoids, 200–500 crypts per well were suspended in Matrigel (Corning) as described.58 (link) Complete ENR medium (all components from Thermo Fisher Scientific unless noted) were comprised of advanced DMEM/F12 (Gibco), antibiotic-antimycotic (×100), 1 mM N-acetyl cysteine (Sigma-Aldrich), B27 supplement, N2 supplement, EGF, Noggin (R&D Systems), R-spondin-1-conditioned medium, and Y-27632 (Sigma). Y-27632 was added to the ENR medium for the first 48–72 h of culture only and then removed during the medium change. The ENR medium was replaced every 2 to 3 days. Colon organoids were cultured in the ENR medium supplemented with Wnt3 conditioned media (WENR). Human colon organoids were cultured in WENR medium supplemented with gastrin, nicotinamide, A83-01, and SB202190 (all from Sigma) as described.59 (link) Isolated ISCs and Paneth cells were co-cultured in ENR medium supplemented with Jagged-1 (1 µM; Anaspec). Wnt-C59 (50 µM; Abcam) was used as a porcupine (PORCN) inhibitor. The surface areas of SI and colon organoids were measured microscopically by taking several random non-overlapping photos of organoids in a well using an inverted microscope (Carl Zeiss). Each photo was analyzed using ImageJ software (NIH) and the Zen image program (Carl Zeiss). Organoid perimeters for area measurements were defined manually using automated ImageJ software.

Medium was changed every 2 days, cocultures were quantified on day 6, and colony cultures were quantified on day 5.

Organoids were cultured in standard cultured medium for 7 days and subsequently enzymatically passaged into single cells using TrypLE express, as described above for flow cytometry. The single cells were subsequently stained with green CMFDA (5, 15, or 25 μM), after which they were washed and homogenized in diluted Matrigel®, supplemented with Jagged-1 (1 μM) (AnaSpec, Fremont, CA, USA) [23 (link)] and seeded in triplicates. Cells were cultured in standard medium (without supplementation of ROCK inhibitor) for a duration of 10 days. At day 10, the number of organoids was determined manually using an inverted digital light microscope. Six experiments were performed in total and included unstained DMSO (dimethylsulfoxid)-control samples as well as cells that briefly were treated with Triton™ X-100 (5%) (Sigma-Aldrich).

Bilateral uterine horns were isolated from C57BL/6 J mice at approximately 10 weeks of age. The tissues were minced into 2–3 mm pieces, washed several times with cold PBS, and dissociated with 2 U/mL dispase II and 1 mg/mL collagenase P (Roche Diagnostics K.K., Tokyo, Japan) for 30 min at 37 °C. Dissociated cells were subjected to the Matrigel bilayer organoid culture (MBOC) protocol [22 (link)]. Briefly, cells were resuspended in the medium supplemented with L-glutamine solution (Wako, Osaka, Japan), penicillin/streptomycin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), amphotericin B suspension (Wako), 50 ng/mL EGF (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ), 250 ng/mL R-spondin1 (R&D, Minneapolis, MN), 100 ng/mL Noggin (Peprotech), 10 μM Y27632 (Wako, Osaka, Japan), 1 μM Jagged-1 (AnaSpec, Fremont, CA), and 2.5 μM CHIR-99021 (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI), and plated on 65 μL of solidified Matrigel (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) per well in a 12-well plate. After overnight incubation at 37 °C, floating or dead cells were removed, leaving only viable cells attached onto Matrigel, which were covered with 70 μL of Matrigel and the medium. Passage was conducted every 5–10 days at 1:2 to 1:3 dilution. In each passage, organoids were dissociated using Accutase (Innovative Cell Technologies, San Diego, CA) for 5 min at 37 °C and vigorous pipetting, followed by seeding on Matrigel.

Intestinal Organoid Culture Technique

Organoids were cultured from crypt enriched ileal fractions from
6–10 wk old wildtype and
Mmp7−/− mice as previously
described1 (link). Briefly,
the distal 10 cm of the small intestine was removed and flushed with
0.04% sodium hypochlorite in PBS. After removal of mucus and villi, the
epithelium was dissociated for 90 min at RT in a solution of 3 mM EDTA and 0.5
mM DTT in Hank’s Buffered Salt solution (HBSS). Crypt enriched fractions
were identified following vigorous shaking into sequential changes of fresh, ice
cold, sterile Ca2+/Mg2+-free HBSS. Cells
were then concentrated by centrifugation at 300 × g for 5 min at 4
°C, and the pellet was resuspended in 300 μl of HBSS containing
0.5 mM Rock inhibitor (Fisher) and 10 μM Jagged-1 (Anaspec). After a
second round of centrifugation, the cell pellet was resuspended in growth factor
reduced Matrigel (BD Biosciences). 50 μl aliquots were plated in the
center of 24 well plates and overlayed with 500 μl of Complete Crypt
Culture Medium (CCCM)10 (link). Once
established, culture media was supplemented with 200 μl CCCM every
2–3 days. Organoids were subcultured every 6–7 days10 (link).

Organoid cultures of gastric epithelial cells and gastric tumors were performed as previously described23 (link). For primary gastric epithelial cell cultures, glandular stomachs of mice were treated with 0.1% collagenase for 30 min followed by trypsin digestion, and cells were cultured in Matrigel (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA & CORNING) with the primary culture medium containing 50ng/mL EGF (BD Biosciences) supplemented with 500 ng/mL R-spondin1 (R&D, Minneapolis, MN, USA), 2.5 ng/μl of Jagged1 (AnaSpec, Fremont, CA, USA), and 100 ng/mL of rMuNoggin (PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA). The first primary cultured cells were cultured with CHIR99021 (2.5 μM; Stemgent, Cambridge, MA) at day 031 . The mean number of cystic structures >300 μm in diameter in Matrigel were counted at day 5~9.

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.
