Live Cell Imaging of Tumor Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For live imaging experiments, tumor cells were plated at a density of 1 × 105 per well in a 12-well glass-bottom plate (In Vitro Scientific), either alone, with an equal number of CAG-EGFP BMDMs, or with BMDM-CM. In experiments with BMDMs, the media were supplemented with 10 ng/mL recombinant mouse CSF-1 (R&D Systems). Twenty-four hours after plating, cells were treated and imaged for 24 hr using a Nikon Eclipse TiE inverted microscope equipped with an environmental chamber maintained at 35°C–37°C and 5% CO2. Mitotic arrest duration in live imaging movies was measured using Nikon Elements Software (Nikon) with at least 30 cells analyzed per treatment condition per experiment.

RAW264.7 cells (106) were seeded into cell culture dishes 6 cm in diameter and incubated in 4 mL RPMI/10% fetal bovine serum (Biochrom) for 24 h at 37 °C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Cells were washed once with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and starved in 3 mL RPMI/0.1% bovine serum albumin for another 24 h. Cells were then treated for 1 h at 37 °C with drugs at the indicated final concentrations, with 0.5% DMSO as vehicle control, or left untreated, and finally stimulated for 2 min at 37 °C with 100 ng/mL recombinant mouse CSF1 (R&D Systems) by adding 1 mL prewarmed starving medium containing 400 ng/mL CSF1. Dishes were placed on ice and cells were immediately washed with ice-cold PBS and lysed with 50 µL lysis buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 10% glycerol, 1% Triton X-100, 0.5% desoxycholate, 0.2% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 1 mM ethylene glycol-bis[β-aminoethyl ether]-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid, 100 mM NaF, 10 mM Na4P2O7, 1 mM Na3VO4, 1% Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail 3 [Sigma-Aldrich], 1 mM phenylmethyl sulfonyl fluoride, Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail [Roche CustomBiotech; 1 tablet/10 mL], and 50 U/mL Benzonase [Sigma-Aldrich]). Lysed cells were scraped into Eppendorf tubes, incubated on ice for 20 min, and centrifuged at 4 °C for 10 min at 13,000 rpm; supernatants (lysates) were transferred into new tubes and stored at −80 °C.

Isolation and Differentiation of Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used male and female animals of 6-10 weeks of age. BMDMs were extracted from C57BL/6 mice using standard protocols (Gocheva et al., 2010 (link)). Following euthanasia, femurs and tibiae were harvested from both legs of the mice under sterile conditions. After careful cleaning of the tissue, the bone marrow was flushed using a 25-gauge needle and passed through a 40 μm strainer. The bone marrow flush was cultured in low-attachment culture dishes (VWR, 25384-342) in high-glucose DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 10 ng/ml Recombinant Mouse CSF-1 (R&D Systems, 416-ML), and 1× Antibiotic-Antimycotic (Gibco, 15240) for 7 days. Medium was replaced every other day to induce macrophage differentiation. All protocols involving animal work complied with relevant regulatory standards and were approved by New York University’s University Animal Welfare Committee (UAWC protocols 17-1496 and 19-1515).

To generate macrophages from bone marrow, femurs and tibiae from Stat6/, Il4raflox;LysM-cre, or WT BL6 mice were flushed and cells harvested under sterile conditions. The isolate was filtered through a 40 μm mesh filter and cultured in 30 ml Teflon bags (PermaLife PL-30) for 5–7 days in DMEM + 10% FBS + 10 ng/ml recombinant mouse CSF-1 (R&D Systems). Media were changed every other day.

Cat Osteoclast Culture Protocol

The protocol was modified from a published rodent osteoclast culture protocol38 . The long bones were dissected from cats at post mortem and cut off at the proximal and distal ends. Bone marrow was flushed out in α-MEM containing 10% FBS followed by red cell lysis in Lysis Buffer (150 mM NH4Cl, 10 mM NaHCO3, 0.1 mM EDTA) for 5 min, on ice. The bone marrow cells were resuspended in α-MEM containing 10% FBS, 2 mM L glutamine, 100 IU/ml benzyl penicillin, 100 mg/ml streptomycin, and CSF-1 (recombinant mouse CSF-1, 10 ng/ml, R&D Systems) and plated on a T75 flask for 24 h at 37 °C in 5% CO2/95% air. On the following day, non-adherent cells were collected and plated on a dentine disc in each well of a 24 well plate (dentine discs were a generous gift from Professor Timothy R. Arnett, University College London, London, UK) or Corning Osteo Assay Surface multiple well plates (1 × 105 cells/cm2) with CSF-1 (10 ng/ml) at 37 °C in 5% CO2/95% air. On day 4, 90% of the medium was changed and, replaced with a new α MEM containing CSF-1 (10 ng/ml) and RANKL (recombinant mouse RANKL, 3 ng/ml, R&D Systems). The culture media was subsequently changed twice weekly for up to 10–14 days.

Primary microglia were seeded at a density of 1x105 cells per well in a 96-well plate in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 100U pen/strep and glutamax. To determine the effect of CSF1 and GW2580 on cell proliferation, microglia were treated with recombinant mouse CSF1 (0-30ng/ml; R&D Systems; Cat No. 416-ML-10) for 48h with increasing concentrations of GW2580 (0-5μM). After treatment, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. at room temperature, washed with PBS then blocked and permeabilized in PBS containing 0.3% Triton-X 100 (PBST) and 5% goat serum for 1h at room temperature. Next, the cells were incubated with a rabbit anti-Ki-67 antibody (Dilution 1:200; Cell Signaling; Cat No. 9129S) overnight at 4°C. After washing with PBS, cells were incubated with Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG diluted 1/1000 in PBST for 1h. (ThermoScientific). After washing with PBS, proliferation was determined by counting the number of microglia per well, as well as the number of Ki-67+ cells per well using ImageJ (NIH).

Intracellular Flow Cytometry for DNA Content Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For intracellular flow cytometry and DNA content analyses, cells were plated at a density of 1 × 105 per well in a 12-well plate, either alone, with an equal number of stromal cells, or BMDM CM. For co-cultures only CAG-EGFP BMDMs were used, and other stromal cell lines were fluorescently labeled with CellTracker Green CMFDA Dye (Molecular Probes). In experiments with BMDMs, the media were supplemented with 10 ng/mL recombinant mouse CSF-1 (R&D Systems). In experiments with MHCII+ BMDMs, the media were supplemented with 10 ng/mL recombinant mouse CSF-2 (R&D Systems). Twenty-four hours after plating, cells were treated and then collected at indicated time points by trypsinization. The samples were then fixed and permeabilized using the Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (eBioscience) and stained overnight at 4°C using primary antibodies at the concentrations listed in Table S2. Allophycocyanin-tagged secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) were used at a 1:300 dilution and incubated for 1 hr at room temperature, followed by resuspension in FACS buffer containing DAPI (5 μg/mL) for DNA content evaluation. For analysis, samples were run on a BD LSR II (Becton Dickinson), and all subsequent compensation and gating were performed with FlowJo analysis software (Tree Star).

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.
