Epidermal growth factor 1 53

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Epidermal Growth Factor 1–53 is a recombinant human protein that corresponds to the first 53 amino acids of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) sequence. It is a widely used growth factor in cell culture applications.

Organotypic Skin Cultures with Dermal Fibroblasts

Primary human keratinocytes were cultured in Keratinocyte Serum Free Medium supplemented with Epidermal Growth Factor 1–53 and Bovine Pituitary Extract (Life Technologies; 17005042). Generation of organotypic skin cultures were performed as described in Li and Sen, 2015. Briefly, ~500K control cells were seeded on devitalized human dermis and raised to an air/liquid interface to induce differentiation and stratification over the indicated number of days with culture changes every two days. Prior to seeding keratinocytes, either Matrigel was applied to the underside of the devitalized dermis or primary human dermal fibroblasts were centrifuged into the devitalized dermis. To evaluate the effect of oxygen levels on 3D skin cultures, FibHSEs were cultured as previously described and exposed to either normoxia (18–20% oxygen) or hypoxia (3% oxygen) at the air-liquid interface for 14 days. To measure changes from EGF supplementation, culture medium was switched to Keratinocyte Serum Free Medium supplemented with Bovine Pituitary Extract and variable concentrations of Epidermal Growth Factor 1–53 (Life Technologies; 17005042) after one week for one additional week of culturing.

Primary human keratinocytes were cultured in Keratinocyte Serum Free Media supplemented with Epidermal Growth Factor 1-53 and Bovine Pituitary Extract (Life Technologies; 17005042). For generating organotypic skin cultures, ~500 K control or knockdown cells were seeded on devitalized human dermis and raised to an air/liquid interface in order to induce differentiation and stratification over the indicated number of days with culture changes every 2 days64 (link).

Neonatal Foreskin Primary Cell Isolation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Discarded and de-identified neonatal foreskins were collected during routine circumcision from UC Irvine Medical Center (Orange, CA, US). The samples were either processed for histological staining, single cell RNA-sequencing, or primary culture. No personal information was collected for this study. For primary cell isolation, fat from discarded and de-identified neonatal foreskins were removed using forceps and scissors and incubated with dispase epidermis side up for 2 hours at 37°C. The epidermis was peeled from the dermis, cut into fine pieces, and incubated in 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA for 15 minutes at 37°C and quenched with chelated FBS. Cells were passed through a 40μm filter, centrifuged at 1500rpm for 5 minutes, and the pellet resuspended in Keratinocyte Serum Free Medium supplemented with Epidermal Growth Factor 1–53 and Bovine Pituitary Extract (Life Technologies; 17005042). Cells were either live/dead sorted using SYTOX Blue Dead Cell Stain (ThermoFisher; S34857) for single cell RNA-sequencing or incubated at 37°C for culture.

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.
