Effects of TP on Mesangial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human renal mesangial cells (HRMCs, American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, MD, USA) were cultured with 1640 media, containing 10% fetal bovin serum (Gibco) at 37 °C in 5% CO2. Cells were cultured with D-glucose (Life Technologies) at normal (5.5 mmol/L) or high (25 mmol/L) concentrations in serum-free medium. D-Mannitol (25 mmol/L, Life Technologies) was used for a control of osmolality. TP was reconstituted in 0.01% dimethyl sulfoxide and freshly diluted with culture medium to 10 ug/L before using. To determine the specific role of PDK1 in TP-potentiated anti-proliferation, we applied 5 μmol/L PS48 (MedChem Express, USA) following the treatment of TP.

C2C12 Myoblast Differentiation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
463 In our experimental study, C2C12 myoblast cell line was obtained from a cell bank (Stem Cells Technology Research Center, Tehran, Iran). These cells were cultured in growth medium [GM, Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium, (Gibco, UK)] containing 10% fetal bovin serum (Gibco, UK) 24 hours before being induced to differentiate, at 37˚C and 5% CO2.
When cell density reached 70%, cells were digested with 0.25% trypsin (Gibco, UK) and then seeded into culture dishes. When inducing C2C12 myoblasts to differentiate, cell density must reach >90% prior to changing GM to differentiation medium [DM, Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium supplemented with 3% horse serum (Gibco, UK)]. The cells were subsequently incubated with DM for another 72 hours to undergo differentiation. The control cell line (the undifferentiated C2C12 line) was cultured only in growth medium for the same time period. All cell cultures were performed at least in triplicate.

STS cell-lines were developed at Institut Bergonié, France. Each cell line was derived from a tumour patient bearing soft tissue sarcoma. Sample tumours were dissociated by mechanistic and enzymatic action. Cell lines genomic stability was done by CGH each 5 passage over at least 20 passages. For experiments cells were grown in RPMI (PAA Laboratories, Les Mureaux, France) supplemented with 10% Fetal Bovin Serum (Gibco, Saint Aubin, France), 50U/mL penicillin, 50 mg/mL streptomycin (Gibco), 1mM L-glutamine and 1mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco) and maintained at 37 °C with 5% CO2.

PBMCs were isolated using SepMate™-50 (IVD) (StemCell Technologies #85450) following manufacturer’s instructions. PBMCs were activated 5 to 7 days on coated plates with anti-CD3-OKT3 (Biolegend #317325 RRID: AB_11147370) and 1 ng/uL anti-CD28 (eBioscience #16–0289-81 RRID: AB_468926) in RPMI medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 20% heat-inactivated Fetal Bovin Serum (GIBCO). After activation cells were directly transfected with the RiboNucleoProtein RNP/Cas9 complex. The patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model was obtained from a tumor biopsy of a patient with newly diagnosed ALK+ ALCL and cells were engraved subcutaneously in NSG mice by the team of Dr. D. Sibon. ALK+ ALCL cell lines and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) were cultivated in RPMI (Invitrogen) medium supplemented with 20% heat inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (GIBCO).

The cerebral cortex of an SD neonatal rat was processed to separate and purify nerve cells by mechanical trituration, trypsinization (0.1% trypsin digestion), filtration, and centrifugation. Trypan blue staining showed that 79.8% of primary cultured nerve cells were positive. The purified cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Hyclone) containing 10% fetal bovin serum (Gibco) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin solution (Macgene). Nerve cells were seeded at a density of 30,000 cells/cm2 on the interdigital electrodes and incubated at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2.

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.
