Quantifying Cellular Glutamine Uptake

Cells were washed with glutamine-free RPMI-1640 medium (Thermo Fisher, MA, USA) and incubated with 4 mmol/L 13C-glutamine (Sigma–Aldrich, MO, USA) in RPMI-1640 medium for 12 h. Then, the lysates were evaluated to determine the [13C] level using a scintillation counter to analyse relative glutamine uptake. Radioactivity was measured as counts per minute (CPM) and normalized to the protein concentration.

RPE media were replaced with DMEM supplemented with FBS (1%), glucose (5.5mM) and 13C glutamine (200μM, Sigma) or 13C proline (200μM, Sigma) for 24 hours. Metabolites were extracted in 80% cold methanol, dried, derivatized by methoxyamine and N-tertbutyldimethylsilyl-N-methyltrifluoroacetamide, and analyzed by an Agilent 7890B/5977B GC/MS system with an Agilent DB-5MS column (30 m × 0.25 mm × 0.25 μm film). Mass spectra were collected from m/z 80–600 under selective ion monitoring mode. The data was analyzed by Agilent MassHunter Quantitative Analysis Software.

Quantifying Glutamine Metabolism

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess the glutamine uptake and glutamine-derived metabolites, cells were cultured in glutamine-free medium supplemented with 2 mM 13C-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich). After incubation for 24 hours, cell lysis was collected for metabolic analysis using an UHPLC system (1290, Agilent Technologies) with a UPLC HSS T3 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8μm) coupled to Q Exactive mass spectrometer (Thermo). The raw data were converted to the mzXML format using ProteoWizard and processed with an in-house program, which was developed using R and based on XCMS [23] (link), for peak detection, extraction, alignment, and integration. In-house MS2 database (BiotreeDB, Shanghai, China) was applied in metabolite annotation.

Culturing and Characterizing NK Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Natural-killer cell line NK-92 (Cat# CRL-2407) was available from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). SNK-6 was kindly provided by Professor Norio Shimizu and Yu Zhang of Chiba University. Cell lines were authenticated using Short Tandem Repeat (STR) analysis (Genetic Testing Biotechnology, STR Profile Reports in Supplemental Data). Recent mycoplasma testing has been performed with Lonza LT07-705 MycoAlert™ PLUS Mycoplasma Detection Kit. NK-92 cells were cultured in α-MEM medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 10% HBS and recombinant human IL-2 (20ng/ml). SNK-6 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 10% HBS and recombinant human IL-2 (80ng/ml). Asparaginase (Cat# A3809), 13C-glutamine (Cat# 184161-19-1), and glutamine (Cat# 56-85-9) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St.Louis, MO, USA). Anti-PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab (Cat# A2005) was from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA).

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.
