Lentiviral Transduction of HUVEC Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Empty pLIV and EWSR1-FLI1pLIV–expressing lentiviruses were provided by N. Riggi (University Institute of Pathology Lausanne, Switzerland). Lentiviruses were produced in Lenti-X 293T packaging cells (Takara, Cultek) at a low passage number. For each plate, 7 μg of the lentiviral plasmid, 5 μg of the envelope plasmid (VSV-G), and 6 μg of the packaging plasmid (PAX8) were prepared and introduced by calcium phosphate transfection, according to standard protocols. The supernatant containing lentiviruses was collected 48 hours after transfection. The HUVEC cell line was seeded at 3000 cells/cm2 and transduced with 3:1 of the lentiviral supernatant with fresh media containing Polybrene (Sigma-Aldrich) at 6 μg/ml. Cells were selected with fresh growth media containing puromycin (0.3 μg/ml) for 72 hours. A control dish without the transduction media was also selected with puromycin, to control for killing of nontransduced cells.

Muse-tk cells and non-Muse-tk cells as a control were used in the following studies.

Generation of VEGF-Expressing SW480 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A VEGF-expressing SW480 cell line was generated by lentiviral transduction. Human VEGF-A165 (VEGF) was cloned into the lentiviral expression vector pLVX-Puro (Takara Bio, Gothenburg, Sweden). The expression vector was co-transfected with pMD2.G (AddGene, Watertown, MA, USA) and psPAX2 (AddGene) into Lenti-X™ 293T packaging cells (Takara Bio) using PEI (Sigma Aldrich) at a final concentration of 1uM. The produced virus particles were harvested 48 and 72hrs post transfection and filtered through a 0.4um filter. The SW480 cells were transduced with the produced viruses and a stable population of VEGF expressing cells was isolated by selection with puromycin (2ug/ml for 48h, Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Lentiviral Transduction of Primary T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lenti-X293T packaging cells (Clontech #11131D) were cultured in medium consisting of Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) (Gibco #10569-010), 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (University of California, San Francisco [UCSF] Cell Culture Facility), and gentamicin (UCSF Cell Culture Facility). Fresh packaging cells were thawed after cultured cells reached passage 30.
Pantropic VSV-G pseudotyped lentivirus was produced via transfection of Lenti-X 293T cells with a pHR’SIN:CSW transgene expression vector and the viral packaging plasmids pCMVdR8.91 and pMD2.G using Fugene HD (Promega #E2312). Primary T cells were thawed the same day, and after 24 hr in culture, were stimulated with Dynabeads Human T-Activator CD3/CD28 (Thermo Scientific #11131D) at a 1:3 cell:bead ratio. At 48 hr, viral supernatant was harvested, and the primary T cells were exposed to the virus for 24 hr. At day 5 post T cell stimulation, Dynabeads were removed and the T cells expanded until day 12 when they were rested and could be used in assays. T cells were sorted for assays with a FACs ARIA II on day 5 or 6 post T cell stimulation.

Lenti-X 293T packaging cells (Clontech #11131D) were cultured in medium consisting of Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) (Gibco #10569–010) and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (University of California, San Francisco Cell Culture Facility). Lenti-X 293T cells were cultured in T150 or T225 flasks (Corning #430825 and #431082) and passaged upon reaching 80% confluency. To passage, cells were treated with TrypLE express (Gibco #12605010) at 37 C for 5 minutes. Then, 10 mL of media was used to quench the reaction and cells were collected into a 50 mL conical tube and pelleted by centrifugation (400xg for 4 minutes). Cells were cultured until passage 30 whereupon fresh Lenti-X 293 T cells were thawed.

The Lenti-X HTX Packaging System (fourth generation; Clontech) was used to generate recombinant, replication-incompetent VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviruses, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfection of the expression vector into the Lenti-X 293T packaging cells (Clontech) was performed in a Lenti-X HTX packaging mix. The supernatants of transfected packaging cells were collected 72 h later and filtered through a 45-μm filter before being added to the cells, with 6 mg/mL polybrene (Sigma-Aldrich). The transduction medium was replaced by a culture medium 24 h thereafter, and cells were then cultured for 72 h to allow gene product accumulation in the cells. Cells were then selected using 1 mg/mL puromycin (Takara Bio Company).

Lentiviral Vector Production and Cell Transduction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Production of lentiviruses was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, recombinant, replication-incompetent, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviruses were generated using a Lenti-X HTX Packaging System [Clontech, fourth generation (five vectors split packaging technology and inducible promoters)]. The expression vector (pLVX-tdTomato-C1, Clontech) was transfected, in a Lenti-X HTX Packaging Mix, into the Lenti-X 293T packaging cells (Clontech). Following 72 hours, supernatants containing the lentiviral produced by the transfected packaging cells were filtered through a 45-μm filter to remove cellular debris. HAMECs were seeded at a density of 5000 cells/cm2 and allowed to adhere overnight. Cells were transduced with td-Tomato lentivirus particles in the presence of polybrene (1.5 μg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich) per well. Transduction media were replaced after 24 hours, and the cells were incubated for up to 72 hours to allow for gene products to accumulate within the target cells. Selection for stably expressing cells was performed using puromycin (3 μg/ml; Takara Bio Company).

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.
