Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The virus strain DV3P12/08 was derived from patients infected with DENV-3 in Thailand in 2008, who exhibited DHF grade 1. The virus was isolated in Aedes albopictus C6/36 cells and then passaged 3–5 times in C6/36 cells and once in Vero cells. Virus stocks were stored at -80°C until use. The C6/36 cell line was cultured at 28°C in Leibovitz’s 15 medium (Gibco, Gland Island, NY) supplemented with 0.3% BactoTM Tryptose Phosphate Broth (Becton Dickinson, Sparks Glencoe, MD, USA) and 10% fetal calf serum (FCS). Vero cells were cultured in Eagle’s minimum essential medium (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) supplemented with 10% FCS.

Ovaries were dissected from PD4 mice and washed three times in Leibovitz’s-15 medium (Gibco) containing 10% fetal bovine serum plus 1% penicillin–streptomycin before being transferred to culture inserts (Millipore) in a 6-well culture plate (Costar) at 37℃ and 5% CO2. DMEM/F12 (Gibco) supplemented with 5% Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium (Sigma), 1 mg/ml BSA (Sigma), 1 mg/ml Albumax II (Gibco), 100 µM L-ascorbic (Sigma), and 1% penicillin–streptomycin was used as the culture medium. A drop of medium was placed to cover the top of the ovary to prevent drying, and the ovaries were cultured for 4 or 8 days with medium changed every 2 days. Ovaries were treated with control medium (1% DMSO), VCD (30 µM), VCD + MSC-CM (fivefold concentration), or VCD + Fib-CM (fivefold concentration). Appropriate concentrations of recombinant human HGF (100–800 ng/ml), G-CSF (100–800 ng/ml), BDNF (100–800 ng/ml), or HGF neutralizing antibody (0–1 ng/ml) were added directly to the culture medium.

Metabolite Modulation of HIRRV Infection in Flounder

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate the effect of differentially expressed metabolites on HIRRV-infected flounder, specific metabolites, including inosine, carnosine and glutamine, glycine, and 7-methylguanine, were selected for experimental verification after exposure to HINAE cells after virus infection. Specifically, HINAE cells were cultured in 6-well plates at 20°C in Leibovitz’s -15 medium (Gibco, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, USA), 100 IU/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. For experimental group, the cells were infected with HIRRV at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of one for 1 hour. Subsequently, inosine, carnosine glutamine, glycine, 7-methylguanine were diluted with PBS, and added to HINAE cell at a final concentration of 0.15 mM, 0.1 mM, 4 mM, 6.8 mM, and 0.1 mM, respectively. After 48 h, total RNA of cells was extracted to detect copy number of HIRRV by RT-qPCR. The cytotoxicity of these metabolites were determined by Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8,Vazyme) 24 hours after supplement.
In addition, to validate our metabolomics results, we also measured the expression of 5’-methylthioadenosine (MTA), GSH, and cystine metabolism-related genes in the infected group of the late metabolite group. All experiments were performed in triplicate, and primers used in this study was shown in Table S1.

The human colon cancer cell line DLD-1 and the human colon cancer lymph node metastasis cell line SW620 were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (USA). The DLD-1 cell line was cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). The SW620 cell line was cultured in Leibovitz’s 15 medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FBS (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.).

The LYCF cell line was kindly provided by Dr. You-Hua Huang (South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou). The LYCF cells were cultured in Leibovitz’s-15 Medium (Gibco, USA) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (Gibco, USA) and 200 µg/mL penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco) at 27 °C. For the hypoxic challenge, LYCF cells were cultured in a MIC-101 modular incubator (Billups Rothenberg Inc., USA) with 1% O2 and 99% N2 for 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h.

Cells were seeded on ZMW coverslips
in a six-well plate at 40% to 45% confluency 1 day before the
imaging experiment. The cell culture medium was replaced with imaging
medium (prewarmed CO2-independent Leibovitz’s-15
medium (Gibco) with 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin)
30 min prior to imaging. All live-cell imaging experiments
were performed at 37 °C. For experiments with HaloTag-expressing
cell lines, the cell culture medium was replaced with the imaging
medium (prewarmed Leibovitz’s-15 medium with 5% fetal bovine
serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin) containing 5 nM JFX650-Halo
ligands. After 10 min of incubation with the Halo ligands,
the cells were washed three times with fresh imaging medium.

To increase survival of the cultured C. farreri hemocytes, the medium was first optimized by supplementing fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hyclone) and CFS to the basic L15 medium (BM-L15, pH 7.2-7.4). BM-L15 medium consists of 13.7 g l -1 Leibovitz's 15 medium (Gibco), 20.2 g l -1 NaCl, 0.54 g l -1 KCl, 0.60 g l -1 CaCl 2 , 1 g l -1 MgSO 4 , 3.9 g l -1 MgCl 2 , 2 mmol l -1 glutamine (Sigma), 100 U ml -1 penicillin (Sigma), and 100 µg ml -1 streptomycin (Sigma). The different media used are summarized in Table 1. Hemolymph was seeded (0.2 ml; 5 × 10 4 cells) onto each of the 24well plates with 0.5 ml BM-L15 and supplements 1), and 3 wells were employed for each group. The primary culture was conducted in an SHP-080 biochemistry incubator at 23°C. The cultured cells were observed and photographed daily using a TS100 inverted microscope (Nikon). The cultured cells were digested with 0.25% trypsase at primary culture for 24 h and counted using a hemocytometer after staining with Trypan blue (Cao et al. 2003) (link) to determine the percentage of living cells (Table 1).

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.
