Synchronization of Circadian Clock in RPTECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (RPTECs; SA7K clone) were commercially obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Cells were cultured under 5% CO2 at 37 °C in MEMα supplemented with 5.5% RPTEC Complete Supplement (Sigma-Aldrich), 2.33 mM l-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich), 28 μM gentamicin (Sigma-Aldrich), and 14 nM amphotericin B (Sigma-Aldrich). For synchronization of the circadian clock in RPTECs, cells were treated with 100 nM DEX (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation) for 2 h. The medium was replaced with fresh medium, and cells were collected to extract RNA and protein at the indicated time points. For the mRNA stability assay, RPTECs were treated with 5 μM actinomycin D (ActD; FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation), a transcription inhibitor, and cells were collected for RNA extraction at the indicated time points. For splicing analysis, RPTECs were treated with 1 μM NMDI-14 (Merck Millipore). Six or twenty-four hours later, cells were collected to extract RNA or protein, respectively.

Human RPTECs (SA7K clone) were commercially obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Cells were cultured under 5% CO2 at 37 °C in MEMα supplemented with 5.5% RPTEC Complete Supplement (Sigma-Aldrich), 2.33 mM l-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich), 28 μM gentamicin (Sigma-Aldrich), and 14 nM amphotericin B (Sigma-Aldrich). For RNA stability assay, RPTECs were treated with 5 μM actinomycin D (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation), and cells were collected for RNA extraction at the indicated time points. For RNase R treatment, 20 μg of total RNA was incubated at 37 °C for 20 min with or without 2 U/μg of RNase R (Applied Biological Materials Inc), and the RNA was then purified by the phenol–chloroform precipitation method.

Cultivation of Renal Proximal Tubule Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (RPTEC; Kidney PTEC Control Cells, SA7K Clone, Sigma, Germany, MTOX1030) were cultured on PureCol-coated (Advanced BioMetrix, 5005-B, diluted with 1:30 in HBSS (Sigma H6648), 20 min incubation at 37°C) T75 flasks in MEME alpha Modification (Sigma, M4526) supplemented with RPTEC Complete Supplement (Sigma, MTOXRCSUP), L-glutamine (1.87 mM, Sigma, G7513), gentamicin (28 μg/mL, Sigma, G1397), and amphotericin B (14 ng/mL, Sigma, A2942). Cells were incubated in a humidified incubator (37°, 5% CO 2 ), and every 2-3 days, the medium was changed. At 90-100% confluency, cells were washed with HBSS (Sigma, H6648), detached with accutase (Sigma, A6964), pelleted (140 g, 5 min), and used for seeding in the OrganoPlate. Cells for experiments were used up to passage 3.

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.
