Hbtec air liquid interface differentiation medium

Manufactured by Lifeline Cell Technology
Sourced in United States

The HBTEC Air-Liquid Interface Differentiation Medium is a specialized cell culture medium designed to facilitate the differentiation of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) at an air-liquid interface. This medium supports the growth and differentiation of HBECs, enabling the cells to develop a polarized, mucociliary phenotype that mimics the in vivo airway epithelium.

Airway Epithelial Cell Culture Differentiation

Primary NHBE cells were purchased from Lonza (catalog no. CC-2541; Basel, Switzerland). NHBE cells in a submerged condition were cultured on 6.5-mm Transwell (Corning, NT, USA) using commercially available bronchial epithelial growth medium (BEGM; Lonza) and incubated at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% carbon dioxide. When the NHBE cells reached full confluency in an immersed culture condition, the cells were transferred to an ALI culture condition using ALI culture medium (HBTEC Air–Liquid Interface Differentiation Medium; Lifeline Cell Technology, Frederick, MD, USA), as previously described with slight modifications [3 (link), 4 (link), 23 (link), 24 (link)]. The cells were then cultured for 4 weeks in ALI conditions to facilitate polarization and ciliary differentiation for subsequent experiments [25 (link), 26 (link)].

Modeling Virus Infection in 3D HBTEC Cultures

3.3×104 HBTECs were seeded onto 6.5 mm Costar Transwell Cell Culture Inserts (pore size 0.4 μm) and grown submerged in BronchiaLife cell culture medium to 100% confluency. HBTEC Air-Liquid Interface Differentiation Medium (LifeLine Cell Technology) was then added to the basolateral chamber, and media removed from the apical chamber. Cells were grown at ALI for 21 days, emerging 3D cultures washed every 48 hours to remove excess mucus, and transepithelial/transendothelial resistance (TEER) measured using an EVOM volt/ohm meter coupled with an STX2 electrode (World Precision Instruments). Cultures with resistance ≥700 Ω/cm2 were used for experimentation. For infection studies, 3D-ALI-HBTECs were apically inoculated with recHPIV3-JS-NanoLuc, HPIV-1–5F6, HPIV3–9R4, or HPIV3–10L3, (5,000 TCID50 units/well) for 2 hours and washed thrice with media. Treatment with GHP-88309 or volume-equivalent DMSO was administered from the basal chamber. Released virus was collected from the apical chamber every 24 hours. Treatment efficacy was evaluated by TCID50 (recHPIV3-JS-NanoLuc) or TCID50-HA (HPIV-1 and HPIV3 clinical isolates) titration of shed virus.

Differentiated 3D HBTEC Airway Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
3.3 × 104 HBTECs at a passage number ≤3 were seeded onto 6.5 mm Costar Transwell Cell Culture Inserts (pore size 0.4 μm) and grown submerged in BronchiaLife cell culture medium to 100% confluency. Upon confluency, media was removed from the apical chamber and the media in the basal chamber changed to HBTEC Air-Liquid Interface Differentiation Medium (LifeLine Cell Technology). The cells were grown at air-liquid interface (ALI) for at least 21 days to ensure complete differentiation; media in the basal chamber was changed every 2 days. The developing 3D cultures were washed apically weekly to remove excess mucus. Transepithelial/transendothelial resistance (TEER) was measured using an EVOM volt/ohm meter coupled with an STX2 electrode (World Precision Instruments). Cultures with resistance ≥700 Ω/cm2 were used for experimentation.

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.
