Isolation and Analysis of HUVECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HUVECs were isolated from anonymous umbilical veins, as described before72 (link). HUVECs were subcultured using a trypsin/EDTA-reagent pack (Lonza) and maintained in 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS)-containing EC growth medium (Sciencell). Cells were treated or not for 24 h with 1 μg/mL ALK1-Fc (R&D Systems) in complete EC growth medium containing 5% FBS. Cells were then rinsed with PBS and processed for RNA extraction and RNA-Seq as described above. For WB analyses, cells were processed as before73 (link) with the following modifications. Cells were solubilized in RIPA buffer (EMD Millipore) supplemented with 1× Complete protease inhibitor mixture (Roche Applied Science). 5–20 μg of proteins (depending on the primary Ab used) were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes. Membranes were then probed with Abs directed against phospho-Smad1/5/8 (Cell Signaling Technology), total Smad5 (Cell Signaling Technology), ID1 (BioCheck), ANG2 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), and actin (BD Transduction Laboratories). A standard ECL detection procedure was then used.

HUVEC Propagation and Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary HUVECs and EC growth medium were purchased from ScienCell Research Laboratories (Carlsbad, CA, USA). Culture flasks were coated with poly-l-lysine before use, and the cells were cultured in EC supplemented with EC growth supplement, 5% FBS and penicillin/streptomycin solution at 37°C in 5% CO2. HUVECS in the 2nd to 5th passages were used in all experiments.

Assessing HUVEC Damage Under Hyperglycemia

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell Culture and HG Treatment HUVEC cell lines were purchased from Qida Biotechnology (Shanghai, China) and then cultured in an EC growth medium (ScienCell, USA), including 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% EC growth supplements. The 3rd-6th passages of cultured HUVECs were used for the following experiments. To find the optimal concentration of HG that caused the HUVECs' damage, we mimicked a model of hyperglycemia conditions by treating HU-VECs with 10, 30, and 50 mmol/L of HG.

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.
