Culturing and Stimulating Immune Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293T cells (Unitech Ltd) and HeLa cells (ATCC) were cultured in DMEM medium (Biosera) supplemented with 10% FCS (Biosera), penicillin and streptomycin (100 µg/ml) (Biosera). Human PBMCs were isolated from whole blood by density gradient centrifugation using Ficoll-Paque Plus (GE Healthcare). Human monocytes were subsequently extracted from PBMCs by positive selection using CD14 beads (Miltenyi Biotec) and cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Biosera) supplemented with 10% FCS and penicillin–streptomycin (100 µg/ml). Following stimulation, supernatants were collected and RANTES levels determined by ELISA (R&D Systems) according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Isolation and Characterization of Human Spermatogonial Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Testicular biopsies obtained from azoospermic patients by testicular sperm extraction (TESE). A small portion of the testicular tissue placed in Hank’s balanced salt solution (HBSS) supplemented with penicillin and streptomycin (Biosera, UK) and minced in small pieces. In order to isolation of spermatogonial stem cells from testis, the tissue was digested with 0.25%trypsin (Sigma Aldrich, USA) for 5 minutesat 37°C. The obtained suspension centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes and the supernatant discarded and cell pellet cultured in DMEM/F12 (Gibco, USA) supplemented with 20% FBS (Gibco, USA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. After 15 days, human spermatogonial stem cell clusters collected and mechanically isolated and cultured in new cell culture flask. Subsequently, the cells subcultured after confluence phase and in passage one the expression of MSC- related cell surface antigens analyzed by flow cytometry.

Establishment and Maintenance of MCF-7/ADR Cell Line

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MCF-7/S cells were purchased from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China), and the multidrug-resistant variant MCF-7/ADR was established and maintained in our laboratory. All cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Biosera, UK) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), and 1% penicillin and streptomycin (Biosera). MCF-7/ADR cells were grown in the RPMI 1640 complete medium with 1 μg/mL ADR to maintain drug-resistance. The cells were cultured at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2.

Culturing MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MCF-7/S cells were purchased from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, People’s Republic of China) and its multidrug-resistant variant MCF-7/ADR was established and maintained in our laboratory. All cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 (Roswell Park Memorial Institute-1640) medium (Biosera, East Sussex, UK) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Biosera), and 1% penicillin and streptomycin (Biosera). MCF-7/ADR cells were grown in the RPMI-1640 complete medium with 1 μg/mL Adriamycin (ADR) so as to maintain its drug resistance. Cell cultures were maintained at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2.

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.
