High glucose dmem f12 medium

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

High glucose DMEM/F12 medium is a cell culture medium formulation that provides a high concentration of glucose as an energy source for cells. It is a widely used medium for the cultivation of a variety of cell types. The medium is designed to support cell growth and proliferation in in vitro cell culture applications.

Segmental bronchi were obtained from lung cancer patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy or pneumonectomy in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University. Informed consent was acquired from all patients and the study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of Zhongnan Hospital (Approval number: 2019044). Bronchial smooth muscle was dissected out and cut into small pieces, which were then placed into 25 cm2 culture flasks and cultured in RPMI-1640 medium containing L-glutamine (2 mM), penicillin (50 U/mL), and streptomycin (50 mg/mL), and supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). After reaching ~80% confluence, cells were passaged using tyrosination with 0.05% trypsin-EDTA and then grown in high glucose DMEM/F12 medium (Gibco-BRL, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 20% FBS (Gibco-BRL). Typical hBSMCs exhibited a hill-and-valley pattern when reaching confluence. The purity of hBSMCs was confirmed by immunocytochemistry with mouse anti-human α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) antibody, and 95% of cells were positively stained with anti-α-SMA (Figure SA). hBSMCs before passage 5 were used for the experiments. In these experiments, hBSMCs were seeded at a density of 5×104 cells/mL and cultured in DMEM/F12 with 10% FBS for 24 h. Cells were treated differently according to the purpose of each experiment.

The purity of hBSMCs was con rmed by immunocytochemistry with mouse anti-human α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) antibody, and 95% cells were positively stained with anti-α-SMA (Fig. S1). hBSMCs before passage 5 were used for the experiments. In our experiments, hBSMCs were seeded in 6-well plates at a density of 5×10 4 cells/ml and cultured in DMEM/F12 with 10% FBS for 24 h. At ~ 70% con uence, cells were treated accordingly to the purpose of the experiments.

According to animal ethical requirements, three ovaries in each group (n = 3) were used in experiment of ovarian culture. Briefly, the bilateral ovaries were harvested from euthanized three-day-old suckling rats and washed with Phosphate Buffer Saline (PBS) for 10 s and then transferred to a sterile 35 mm plastic Petri dishes and completely submerged in DMEM/F12 high-glucose medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FBS, 5% insulin-transferrin-selenium, 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, 1 mg/mL albumin II, 100 µmol/L ascorbic acid, 1% penicillin-streptomycin, and 0.05 IU/mL follicle-stimulating hormone [31 (link), 32 (link)]. The excess fat and connective tissues were removed from the ovaries using micro forceps under a stereoscope and then incubated at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for 30 min. CTX (60 µmol/L, Baxter, USA). VEGFA (50 ng/mL, PeproTech, USA) was added to the ovaries dishes for 48 h (n = 3), and then the ovaries were collected for subsequent experiments.

Assessing Methionine Toxicity on Poultry Intestinal Cells

To determine the potential toxicity of methionine treatments on the intestinal epithelial cells of poultry, a cell viability assay was conducted under two conditions: DMEM/F12 high glucose medium (Gibco) and glucose starvation stress [59 (link), 60 (link)]. For the glucose starvation stress, the intestinal epithelial cells of poultry were incubated in DMEM/F12 without glucose supplement for 24 h and then supplemented with each methionine for another 24 h. Then, the cells were harvested to ascertain the gene expression levels associated with intestinal tight junction and inflammatory cytokines [61 (link)]. According to the manufacturer’s instructions, total RNA was extracted with TRIZOL reagent (Invitrogen; CA, USA) and purified with RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen; Hilden, Germany). The CFX96 Real-Time equipment (Bio-rad; CA, USA) and miScript SYBR Green PCR kits were used to practice qRT-PCR.

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.
