Isolation and Culture of Murine Cardiomyocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal work was approved by the University of Pittsburgh Division of Laboratory Animal Resources. Primary cardiomyocytes were isolated from Swiss Webster or Black 6 mouse neonates (P1–P3) as described (Ehler et al., 2013 (link); Wickline et al., 2016 (link)). For protein isolation, Swiss Webster-derived cardiomyocytes were plated onto 35 mm dishes (1×106 cells/dish) coated with Collagen Type I (Millipore). For immunostaining, cardiomyocytes were plated onto 35 mm MatTek dishes with 10 mm insets coated with Collage Type I. Cardiomyocytes were plated in plating media: 65% high-glucose DMEM (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 19% M-199 (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 10% horse serum (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 5% FBS (Atlanta Biologicals) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Media was replaced 16 h after plating with maintenance media: 78% high-glucose DMEM, 17% M-199, 4% horse serum, 1% penicillin-streptomyocin, 1 µM AraC (Sigma) and 1 µM isoproternol (Sigma). Cells were cultured in maintenance media for 2–4 days until lysis or fixation.

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.
