Lung epithelial cells (Ter119/Cd31/Cd45/Epcam+) isolated from 7-10-week-old Cracd WT mice or Cracd KO were cultured with lung stromal cells in a 3D organoid air-liquid interface, as described previously24 (link),45 (link). In brief, freshly sorted lung epithelial cells were resuspended in 3D organoid media (Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium [DMEM]/F12 [Gibco, USA]), 10% FBS [Thermo Fisher Scientific], 1′ penicillin-streptomycin-glutamine [Thermo Fisher Scientific], and 1′ insulin-transferrin-selenium [Thermo Fisher Scientific.]) and mixed with LuECs at a ratio of 1:1. Cells containing 3D media were mixed with growth factor-reduced Matrigel (BD Biosciences) at a ratio of 1:1. The 100 ml of mixtures containing lung epithelial cells (5 X 103) and LuECs (5 X 104) were placed in the transwell insert (0.4-mm pore, Corning, Lowell, MA). After incubation for 30 mins at 37°C in an incubator, 500 ml of 3D media was placed in the bottom chamber to generate the liquid-air interface. Media were exchanged every other day.

Immortalization of Human Spermatogonial Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
By transfecting Large T antigen into G protein-coupled receptor 125 (GPR125)-positive human undifferentiated spermatogonia, immortalized human SSC lines were established[18 (link)]. Immortalized human SSCs maintained many properties of their primary cells and expressed many markers of primary SSCs including GFRA1, RET, and promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF). They did not express testicular endosomal cell markers such as SRY-box transcription factor 9[15 (link)]. The immortalized human SSCs were grown at 34 °C with 50 mL/L CO2 in an incubator, and the culture medium consisted of Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)/F12 (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, United States) supplemented with 100 mL/L fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco). The cells were subcultured every 2 d or 3 d (0.5 g/L trypsin and 0.53 mmol/L Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, United States).

UC-MSCs were obtained and isolated as previously reported (19 (link),20 (link)). Briefly, umbilical cords were collected from term infants immediately after birth. The cords were rinsed twice in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) with 100 units/mL penicillin and streptomycin, and the cord blood vessels were carefully removed. Wharton’s jelly was cut into 1–2 mm3 pieces and resuspended in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)/F-12 containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (all from Gibco, Life Technologies). After culture for 2 days, the medium containing non-adherent cells was discarded, and the medium was replaced twice a week thereafter. MSCs between passages 4 to 6 were used for subsequent experiments.

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.
