Samples of human adipose tissue were obtained from three healthy female donors undergoing thigh liposuction. Informed consent was obtained from these donors and the study protocol was approved by an institutional review board. The aspirated fat was washed with PBS and then digested with 0.1% collagenase type I (Gibco, Life Technologies, CA, USA). The digested tissue was centrifuged to separate the stromal cell fraction from adipocytes and connective tissues. The cells were resuspended with complete Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM) (Gibco) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Keygentec, Nanjing, China). The cells were passed through a 200-μm mesh and then centrifuged. The isolated cells were resuspended in complete DMEM, placed into 25-cm 2 flasks, and cultured at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO 2 . The medium was replaced every 3 days. Cells were passaged at a ratio of 1:2 per week. Only cells that were passaged 4 times were used in this study.

Cell lines and cell culture. The HGC-27 cell line was obtained from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). Cells were maintained in a T-25 flask with RPMI-1640 (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA), supplemented with 1% penicillin streptomycin (Nanjing KeyGen Biotech Co., Ltd., Nanjing, China) and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco). The cells were incubated at 37˚C, in a 5% CO 2 humidified incubator. Colony formation assay. Cells (2x10 5 ) were distributed in 6-well plates and allowed to adhere for 24 h. Then, the cells were treated with vehicle control or [6] -gingerol (300 µM) for 24 h, followed by exposure to different doses of IR. Cells were harvested, counted and 500 cells of each treatment were seeded into a 60-mm culture dish with fresh complete culture medium. Following 10-14 days of incubation, the colonies were stained with crystal violet staining solution (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). The plates were pictured using a digital camera, and the surviving colonies (colonies containing more than 50 cells under a microscope in x100 magnification) were counted by Adobe Photoshop CS6 (Adobe, San Jose, CA, USA). Cell survival curves were fitted with the linear-quadratic model using GraphPad Prism 5 software (GraphPad Software, Inc., La jolla, CA, USA).

C2C12 cells (mouse skeletal myoblasts) were obtained from ATCC and cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM, Corning, NYC, USA, 10-013-CV) with 10% Fetal bovine serum (Biological Industries, Beit HaEmek, Israel) and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin (KeyGEN, Nanjing, China, KGY0023) at 37 ℃ supplemented with 5% CO2. To differentiate into myotubes, C2C12 myoblasts cells were cultured in a differentiation medium (DMEM containing 2% horse serum and 1% penicillin and streptomycin) and the entire differentiation process lasted about 4 days. EV-depleted Fetal bovine serum (FBS) was obtained after overnight centrifugation at 100,000 g at 4 °C (Beckman Coulter, Avanti JXN-30). For screening the optimum concentration, EVs were added to the medium for 24 h at different doses. For determining the function of EVs in muscle atrophy in vitro, EVs were added to the medium at a dose of 1 × 1010 particles/mL for 24 h, then muscle atrophy was induced. Dexamethasone (Dex, Sigma, MO, USA, D4902), TNF-α (PeproTech, NJ, USA, 315-01 A), and Ang II (Sigma, MO, USA, A9525) were used to induce muscle atrophy at the cellular level according to previously reported methods [4 (link)].

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.
