The HCC cell line Mahlavu was kindly provided by dr. Rengul Cetin-Atalay (Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey) [65 –67 (link)] while Hep3B (ATCC no: HB-8064), HepG2 (ATCC no: HB-8065) SNU449 (ATCC no: CRL-2234) and SNU475 (ATCC no: CRL-2236) were obtained from ATCC. Mahlavu, Hep3B and HepG2 were maintained in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-Glutamine, 0.1 mM NEAA, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. SNU449 and SNU475 cell lines were maintained in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-Glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. For normoxic condition, all cells were cultured in a 37°C humidified incubator and an atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air. For hypoxic condition, cells were cultured in a CO2 incubator (Forma™ Series II Water Jacket CO2, Thermo Scientific, USA) maintained at 94% N2, 5% CO2 and 1% O2 for indicated times of treatments. Western blot analysis was performed by standard methods as described elsewhere [68 (link)–70 (link)].

Optimizing Chondrocyte Culture Conditions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human or rabbit chondrocytes were seeded in 25 cm2 cultured flasks in a humidified Thermo Scientific Forma Series II Water Jacket CO2 incubator in chondrocyte culture medium: Ham's F12 culture medium with l-glutamine, 25 μg mL−1 of l-ascorbic acid, 100 units per mL of penicillin, 100 μg mL−1 of streptomycin, 0.25 μg mL−1 of Fungizone® Antimycotic (AM) and 10% FBS. The culture medium was changed twice a week. To optimize the culture, an MTS assay was performed with different chondrocyte medium compositions: Ham's F12, 1% AM (Invitrogen, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 25 μg mL−1 ascorbic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), different concentrations of fetal bovine serum (FBS, Lonza, Walkersville, MD, USA) and the presence or absence of basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF at 10 ng mL−1, R&D Systems Inc, Minneapolis, Minn, USA) to find the best option for chondrocytes culture (10% FBS + b-FGF). MSC were cultured with DMEM media supplemented with 100 units per mL of penicillin, 100 μg mL−1 of streptomycin, 0.25 μg mL−1 of AM and 10% FBS.

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.
