Characterization of Murine Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mesenchymal stromal cells were procured from mouse bone marrow as previously described [21 ,22 ]. Isolated BMC were cultured in a Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) and plastic-adherent stromal cells were cultivated and used within up 5 passages.
We evaluated differentiation of BMC into adipocytes (MesenCult™ Adipogenic Differentiation Kit (Mouse): STEMCELL technologies, BC, Canada), osteocytes (MesenCult™ Osteogenic Stimulatory Kit (Mouse); STEMCELL technologies), and chondrocytes (Human/Mouse StemXVivoTM Chondrogenic Media; R&D systems, MN, USA) according to manufacturer's instructions.
Flow cytometry was used to confirm the BMC population via surface marker expression as per established protocols [21 ,22 ]. All antibody details are listed in Table 1.

Adipogenic and Osteogenic Differentiation of ADSCs and iADSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ADSCs and iADSCs were seeded at 3.2 × 104 cells per well in a Nunc cell-culture- treated 4-well dish (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). After 2 days, the adipogenic differentiation was induced by incubation in a MesenCult Adipogenic Differentiation Kit (Mouse) (STEMCELL Technologies). After 4 and 7 days, cells were stained with Oil Red O (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) to determine the presence of intracellular lipid droplets, and the expression of differentiation markers after 7 days of differentiation was examined using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs and iADSCs was induced by incubation in a MesenCult Osteogenic Stimulatory Kit (Mouse) (STEMCELL Technologies) for 11–21 days. Cells after 21 days of differentiation were then stained with Alizarin red (MUTO PURE CHEMICALS, Tokyo, Japan) to detect Ca2+ deposits. Cells after 11–21 days of differentiation were also examined for expression of differentiation markers via RT-qPCR. For Alizarin red staining, Nunc cell-culture-treated 4-well dishes (ThermoFisher Scientific) were coated with 0.01% type I collagen (C4243, Sigma-Aldrich).

Isolation and Culturing of Primary MSCs and ECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary MSCs were isolated according to previously published methods [17 ]. For MSC preparation, CD45-Ter119- cells were obtained from compact mouse bone with an MSC enrichment kit (Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada). Then, the cells were grown in a MesenCult™ Osteogenic Stimulatory Kit (Mouse) (Stem Cell Technologies). Primary ECs were purchased from Shanghai Zhong Qiao Xin Zhou Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (ZQ0446; Shanghai, China). All experiments were performed on fresh, low-passage (p2-3) 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.
