Isolation and Culture of Murine Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice on C57BL/6 genetic background were housed in a specific pathogen-free (SPF) facility on the basis of standard humane animal husbandry protocols, which were approved by the animal care and use committee of the Institute of Microbiology (Chinese Academy of Sciences). Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were collected from tibiae and femurs of 7-8 weeks old mice. After lysis of red blood cells, BMDMs were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution (Caisson) and Murine M-CSF (Pepro Tech) for 4–6 days. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were also collected from tibiae and femurs of 7-8 weeks old mice and cultured following a published protocol82 (link), and were used for experiments at the fourth passage.

Authentication and Cultivation of Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All cancer cell lines were authenticated by the University of Arizona Genetics Core Cell Authentication Services. Low-grade ovarian cancer cell lines A2780 (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) and SKOV-3 (ATCC, VA, USA) as well as drug-resistant ovarian cancer models A2780-Cis (cisplatin resistant, Sigma-Aldrich) and OVCAR-3 (ATCC) were purchased and cultured as per vendor’s protocol Ascites-derived epithelial ovarian cancer cells (de-identified) were obtained from the Biorepository Center of Rutgers-Cancer Institute of New Jersey (passage 7). For simplicity, we named them OVASC-1 since they were originated from ovarian ascites. OVASC-1 cells were maintained in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 15% FBS and 2.5 μg/mL insulin The media was changed every other day. ASC cell line (ASC52telo, hTERT immortalized adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells) (ATCC) was cultured in ASC basal medium supplemented with Mesenchymal Stem Cell Growth Kit (ATCC) and 0.2 mg/mL G418 (Sigma-Aldrich). To inhibit bacterial growth, 1% Penicillin-streptomycin solution (Caisson Labs, UT, USA) was added to the culture media of all cell lines.

Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were collected from tibiae and femurs of 8–12-weeks old mice. After lysis of red blood cells, BMDMs were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution (Caisson) and Murine M-CSF (Pepro Tech) for 4–6 days.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Male dahl-S rats (S), male C57BL/6J mice, or male Tlr2 knockout mice (B6.129-Tlr2tm1Kir/J; Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME, USA) were injected intraperitoneally with thioglycolate, as previously described [31 (link)]. After 72 h, peritoneal macrophages were obtained by lavage and adherent macrophages were allowed to settle for another 72 h. Cells were allowed to grow in 12-well plates and were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) (Catalog No. 11995065; ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Rocky Mountain Biologicals, Inc, Missoula, MT, USA) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin solution (Caisson Labs, Smithfield, UT, USA).
MC-LR was used at a dose of 10 μM. Anti-Tlr2 monoclonal Ab (Item No. mabg-mtlr2; InvivoGen, San Diego, CA, USA), used at a dose of 2.5 μg/mL, with pretreatments for 1 h. Doramapimod (Item No. 10460; Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA), used at a dose of 10 μM, with pretreatments for 30 min. All treatments were for 24 h in duration. Treatments were preceded by 24 h of serum starvation using DMEM supplemented with only 1% penicillin–streptomycin solution, and treatments were prepared in the same serum-starved conditions.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell culture and chemicals. 4T1 murine breast carcinoma cells with stably transfected multi-cistronic reporter genes have been reported previously, so called 4T1_PB3R (24) . Cells were cultured in RPMI1640 medium (Gibco; Invitrogen Inc., Carlsbad, CA, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; HyClone; Thermo, Waltham, MA, USA), 1% penicillin-streptomycin solution (Caisson Laboratories Inc., North Logan, UT, USA) and 1% l-glutamine (200 mM) (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO, USA). Cells were cultured in a 37˚C, humidified incubator containing 95% air and 5% CO 2 and passaged every 2 days. Preparation of glycated chitosan (10 mg/ml, dissolved in deionized distilled water) has been described previously (16) . It was then stored in the refrigerator until used.

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.
