The conditional immortalized human podocytes, control podocytes and podocytes with reduced α-Gal activity were cultured as previously described13 . Briefly, immortalized podocytes were transduced with co-shRNA (control), and with shRNA 894 (α-galactosidase A knockdown) and cultured in RPMI media (Sigma-Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany) with insulin-transferrin-sodium selenite as supplement (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (Biochrom, Berlin, Germany). Cells proliferated at 33 °C until they reached a confluence of 60–70%. Afterwards cells were differentiated at 37 °C for 14 days before harvesting them for proteomic analysis. Cells were regularly tested for mycoplasma infection using mycoplasma detection kit from Minerva biolabs (Minerva Biolabs, Berlin, Germany).

After 24 or 48 h, culture medium was removed and snap frozen. Cells were washed twice with PBS and scraped into ice-cold urea buffer (8 M urea, 100 mM ammonium bicarbonate, 1X PPI), snap frozen and stored until analysis.

Primary hepatocytes were isolated from adult male mice according to the two-step perfusion procedure, as described previously (Li and Koda, 2002 (link); Ghose et al., 2011 (link); Shah et al., 2014 (link)) with some modifications (Ghose et al., 2016 (link)). Cell viability was measured using trypan exclusion method. Cells plated at a density of 250,000 cells/ml in six-well Primaria plates (BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ) were allowed to attach for 4 h in Williams E medium (Invitrogen) containing the following; 10,000 U/ml of Penicillin/streptomycin solution (Invitrogen), 200 mM of L-glutamine, 5 mg of gentamicin, 5 μg/ml Insulin-transferrin-sodium selenite [ITS], 4 ng/ml glucagon and 10% fetal bovine serum [FBS] (Invitrogen). Hepatocyte preparations with more than 85% viability were used in experiments. Cells were maintained for 48 h with a daily change of medium.

To isolate the intrahepatic BECs, a two-step liver perfusion was performed. The perfused liver was removed and hepatocytes were selectively removed by forcing them with gentle pressure through an incision in the liver. Cells were suspended in DMEM media supplemented with 10% FBS, 5% NuSerum IV (BD), 0.5 mg/ml insulin–transferrin–sodium selenite (Gibco), 1 mmol/l ascorbic acid 2-phosphate, 10K7 M dexamethasone (Sigma-Aldrich Corp.), 10 ng/ml EGF (R&D, Minneapolis, MN, USA), 10 ng/ml HGF (R&D, Minneapolis, MN, 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.
