Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HaCaT cells (spontaneously transformed human keratinocytes) were obtained from Cell Lines Service (CLS; Eppelheim, Germany). The cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM; Gibco, France) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM glutamine, 50 IU/mL penicillin, and 50 IU/mL streptomycin (Gibco) at 5% CO 2 and 37 ° C. When the HaCaT cells reached confluency, they were dispersed using trypsin and counted using a hematimeter. The cell suspension was diluted to a cell density of 100,000 cells/mL and seeded in 96-well microplates for 24 h. The compounds in ethanol were prepared at 1:100 dilution in culture medium and incubated for 24 h. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) at 10 µg/mL was used as an anti-inflammatory control [21 (link)].

The detailed methods have been described previously [7 (link)]. In brief, HaCaT cells were purchased from CLS Cell line service (Eppelheim, Germany) and maintained in Huons Co., Ltd. (Gyeonggi-do, Korea). We obtained the HaCaT cells from Huons, and the cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM; Gibco, Rockville, MD, USA) containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco) and 1% antibiotics (Gibco) at 37°C and 5% CO2 in a humidified incubator. The cells were plated and allowed to adhere for 24 h, and then treated with various concentrations of HU-018. After 24 h, the medium was changed and exposed to UVB radiation at a dose of 20 mJ/cm2. UVB irradiation was performed using a UVM-225D Mineralight UV display lamp (UVP, Phoenix, AZ, USA) that emitted at a wavelength of 302 nm. The strength of the UV radiation was measured using a HD2102-2 UV meter (Delta OHM, Padova, Italy).

HaCaT cells were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA) and were cultured as described above. The RNA from HaCaT keratinocytes treated with 10a–e, 1,25D3, 22-oxa-1,25D3 or DMSO was isolated using the Absolutely RNA Miniprep Kit (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA, USA). Reverse transcription (100 ng RNA/reaction) was performed with the Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Roche Inc., Mannheim, Germany). Real-time PCR was performed using cDNA diluted 10-fold in sterile water and a SYBR Green PCR Master Mix. The primers for both forward and reverse lines for VDR, CYP24A1 and TRPV6 genes were designed based on the mouse and rat sequences using Primer Quest software (Integrated Device Technology, San Jose, CA, USA). Reactions (in triplicate) were performed at 50°C for 2 min, 95°C for 10 min and then 40 cycles of 95°C for 15 s, 60°C for 30 s and 72°C for 30 s. Data were collected and analyzed on a Roche Light Cycler 480. The amount of the final amplified product for each gene was compared and normalized to the amount of β-actin as a housekeeping gene using a comparative Ct method (25 (link)).

To test the effect of the new derivatives on cell integrity, normal
human keratinocytes (HaCaT cells, from ATCC, USA) were used to measure
cell viability after exposure to the most promising compounds, using
DEET and Icaridin as references. HaCaT cells were cultured in 5% CO2 at 37 °C in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s
medium (DMEM), supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% l-glutamine (4 mM), and 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Thermo
Fisher Scientific, Rodano, Milan, Italy). HaCaT cells were then seeded
(1 × 105 cells/well) and exposed to 10 derivatives
(6b, 9b, 12a, 13a, 15a, 16b, 16c, 17b, 17c, and 18a) or to DEET and Icaridin,
at a final concentration of 82 μg/mL, selected to obtain a final
solvent concentration (ethanol) below 0.1%. Cytotoxicity was evaluated
after 24 h using the MTS reagent (CellTiter 96 Aqueous proliferation
assay; Promega Madison, WI, USA) as previously described.32 (link) For compounds exhibiting cytotoxicity at 24
h but of interest for their repellence, we evaluated also the HaCaT
viability after 3 and 6 h of exposure. Experiments were performed
in triplicate.

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.
