Cytotoxicity Evaluation of Compounds Against HBV-Replicating Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two HBV-replicating cell lines HepG2.2.15 and HepG2.A64 were employed in the study. HepG2.A64 as an ETV-resistant HBV-replicating cell line has been employed previously (Liu et al., 2016 (link); Liu et al., 2018 (link)). Compared to HepG2.2.15 cells, HepG2.A64 cells generated comparable HBV DNA, higher HBsAg but lower HBeAg. The cytotoxicity of LWWL (Shibo Jindu, Zibo, China) and four compounds quercetin, luteolin, wogonin, and kaempferol (purchased from MedChemExpress Co., Ltd., Monmouth Junction, United States) on cells were analyzed using Cell Counting Kit-8 (Dojindo Laborarories, kyushu, Japan) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The median cytotoxic concentration (CC50) was calculated. The molecular and cellular studies were carried out in Biosafety level-2 (BSL-2) laboratory at Center Laboratory, The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital. All manipulations were strictly conducted according to the instructions of the laboratories.

Cytotoxicity assessment of baicalein and wogonin

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Baicalein (purity ≧ 98%) and wogonin (purity ≧ 98%) were purchased from MedChemExpress (New Jersey, USA). The cytotoxicity control test of the drug was detected using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) (Beyotime, Hangzhou, China). HT22 cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 3 × 105, and after culturing for 24 h, different concentrations of Baicalein (0, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320 µM) and wogonin (0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 µM) were added respectively. After 24 h of incubation, cell viability was detected with CCK8, and the OD value (450 nm) of each well was measured with a SpectraMAX M3 microplate reader (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA, USA), which was used to screen out the safe concentration range of the drug.

The spleen was minced and passed through a 70 μm nylon cell strainer; lymphocytes were isolated via Ficoll-Hypaque (Tianjin HaoYang Biological Manufacture, Tianjin, China). Cells were resuspended in completed RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, Grand Island, USA) containing with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (Hyclone, Australia), 100 μg/mL streptomycin, 100 U/mL penicillin, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 50 μM 2-mercaptoethanol (Life Technologies). CD19+ cells were purified by negative selection nanobeads according to the manufacturer's protocols (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA). The purity of CD19+ cells was verified on FACS Arial II (BD Biosciences). 1 × 106/mL purified B cells were cultured with/without 2 μg/mL LPS (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) for 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h in the presence of Wogonin (MedChemExpress, China) with different concentrations (0, 12.5, 25, and 50 μM).

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.
