The nucleated bone marrow cells were collected according to [29 (link)]. In brief, mice at eight postnatal weeks were euthanized by CO2 asphyxiation. Both femurs of each mouse were removed, and the bone marrow tissues were collected by flushing femurs with phosphate-buffered saline free from calcium and magnesium ions. After treating bone marrow tissues with tris-buffered ammonium chloride for the lysis of erythrocytes and washing with RPMI medium 1640 (Cat. 06261-65, with L-glutamine and without phenol red, Nacalai Tesque, Inc., Tokyo, Japan), single cell suspensions of dissociated nucleated bone marrow cells were filtered through a 40 μm cell strainer (Corning, Inc., New York, NY, USA) and then counted for further use.

Colorectal cancer cell line, HCT 116, was cultured in Roswell Memorial Institute (RPMI) medium 1640 (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Tico Europe Ltd., Amstelveen, Netherlands), 1% Antibiotic-Antimycotic solution (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan), maintained at 37 °C in a humidified 5% CO2-enriched atmosphere (ESCO, Horsham, PA, USA). Cells were rinsed by using 1× phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan), repeated three times, and cells were detached by using trypsin-EDTA (Life Technologies, Burlington, Canada), followed by RPMI addition to stop the trypsinization; cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 1000 rpm, resuspended in RPMI for sub-culturing or seeding purpose, or 1× PBS was used to resuspend for harvesting as a washing step, followed by second-time pelleting of the cells. During harvesting, after observation under the microscope and cell count was conducted, cells from four flasks were pooled and pelleted in the amount as required for further analyses. The microcentrifuge tubes containing a pelleted known number of cells were immediately flash frozen in liquid nitrogen before storage in −80 °C until further usage.

Ultrastructural Analysis of K562 Cells

K562 cells, which are cell lines originated from human chronic myelogenous leukemia, were cultured in suspension at 37 C in RPMI-1640 medium (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto) supplemented with 10% FBS (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY) plus antibodies (Nacalai Tesque) (Hirao et al. 2018) (link).
For CF-FS, glutaraldehyde was added directly to the cell suspension to a final concentration of 2.5%. They were kept at 37 C for 10 min and stored at 4 C overnight. They were collected by centrifugation at 1400 rpm (400 G, swing rotor) for 7 min, and sandwiched between two copper discs (Fig. 1c). Likewise, for RF-FS of living cultured cells, cells were collected by centrifugation at 1400 rpm for 7 min and sandwiched between two copper discs.
The sandwiched cells were snap-frozen by plunging into melting propane cooled with liquid nitrogen. They were freeze substituted in acetone containing 2% osmium tetroxide for 2-4 days at 80 C and embedded in epoxy resin. Ultrathin sections were cut to a thickness of 50 nm with a diamond knife, picked up on single-slot grids, and placed on a Formvar film mounted on an aluminum rack (Yamaguchi and Chibana 2018) . They were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate (Yamaguchi et al. 2005b) , and observed in a JEM-1400 electron microscope (JEOL, Tokyo) at 100 kV as with human tissues (Fig. 1) (Yamaguchi and Chibana 2018) .

Primary hepatocytes were obtained from miR‐33 knockout mice by the collagenase perfusion method. Livers from mice were lysed by retrograde perfusion with collagenase type II (Worthington, OH). The cell suspension was passed through a 70‐μm cell strainer and centrifuged to isolate mature hepatocytes. Hepatocytes were seeded onto collagen type‐I coated dishes at a density of 2.5×105 cells/mL in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium low glucose (Nacalai Tesque, Japan) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Primary mouse peritoneal macrophages were obtained from miR‐33 WT, miR‐33a knockout, miR‐33b KI, and miR‐33 KOKI mice by intraperitoneal lavage with cold phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) 72 hours after the intraperitoneal administration of 3% (w/v) thioglycolate. Macrophages were resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium (Nacalai Tesque) containing 10% FBS, and seeded at a density of 5.0×105 cells/mL. Hep‐G2 cells were cultured with DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS at a density of 1.0×106 cells/mL. For cholesterol‐depletion experiments, the medium was replaced with DMEM containing 10% lipoprotein‐depleted serum and 10 nmol/L pitavastatin.

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.
