Isolation of Neonatal Mouse Cardiomyocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 10 female neonatal mice (weight, 19.58±1.34 g; age, 1–3 days) were purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd. and euthanized using CO2 (displacement rate, 60% volume/min) followed by cervical dislocation according to AVMA guidelines (30 (link)). Cessation of breathing and movement were considered to indicate mortality. Then, the mice were sterilized with alcohol and the heart was removed. Then, 1 0.10% collagenase and 1 ml 0.08% trypsin were added into a 15 ml centrifuge tube. The chopped tissue was digested at 37°C for 10 min and centrifuged at 4°C (710.4 × g, 10 min). After that, the supernatant was discarded to remove endothelial cells. Then, 1 ml 0.1% II collagen proteinase was added to the 15 ml tube and digested for 10 min at 37°C. After centrifuging at 4°C (710.4 g, 10 min), the supernatant was transferred to a new 50 ml centrifuge tube and 1 ml DMEM/F12, supplemented with 10% FBS (both Procell), was added. This process was repeated 6–7 times. The cell suspension was centrifuged at 4°C and 200 × g for 5 min, then cells were collected and inoculated into a sterile 35-mm petri dish and cultured for 120 min (37°C, 5% CO2). The non-adherent cells were inoculated into a new gelatin-coated petri dish (DMEM/F12 supplemented with 10% FBS) and cultured for 24 h (37°C, 5% CO2) to obtain cardiomyocytes.

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.
