HUVEC Conditioned Media Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were obtained from Cell Application (200P-05N) and cultured in EGM-2MV complete medium (Lonza, CA94045-820) or M200 complete medium (Thermo Fisher, M200500; S00310) until they reached ~95–100% confluence. To generate conditioned medium, cells were exposed to serum-free medium (apoptotic stress; RPMI 1640, Invitrogen, 11875-093) alone or in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (necrotic stress; 15 mM, Fischer, H325-500), bafilomycin A1 (lysosomal inhibitor; 20 nM, Sigma-Aldrich, B1793, Baf), wortmannin (PI3K3 inhibitor; 100 nM, Sigma-Aldrich, W3144, Wort), ZVAD-fmk (pancaspase inhibitor; 50 μM, R&D Systems), DEVD (caspase-3/-7 inhibitor; 100 μM, R&D Systems), or vehicle (dimethyl sulfoxide, Sigma-Aldrich, D2650) for 1 to 4 h. Preincubation for 1 h in complete medium with wortmannin was applied before serum starvation. Cells were exposed to EGM-2MV vesicle-free complete medium to produce conditioned medium from normal cells.

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.
