Transwell Barrier Integrity Evaluation

A253 cells were cultured to confluence in the inner chambers of 12 mm transwell inserts with 0.4 μM pore-size filters (Corning Life Sciences). The TEER was measured using an EVOM voltameter with an ENDOHM-12 (World Precision Instruments, Sarasota, FL, USA) on a heating plate (Fine, Tokyo, Japan) adjusted to 37 °C. The values were expressed in standard units of ohms per square centimeter and presented as the mean ± S.D. For calculation, the resistance of blank filters was subtracted from that of filters covered with cells.

Transepithelial Voltage and Resistance Measurements

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transepithelial voltage and resistance measurements were performed using Endohm chambers (ENDOHM‐24SNAP or ENDOHM‐12) from World Precision Instruments (WPI) connected to an EVOM2 epithelial voltohmmeter from WPI in voltage‐clamp short‐circuit mode. Short circuit equivalent current (Ieq) was calculated from voltage and resistance read outs using Ohm's law, I  =  V/R. We report values of Ieq relative to the control group. More than 95% of Ieq was inhibited by 10 μmol/L apical amiloride and thus is considered to be proportional to the activity of ENaC in the apical plasma membrane. Before collecting electrophysiological read outs, 100 μL of apical differentiation media was gently added to cell culture inserts in addition to the 100 μL of apical differentiation media already present to ensure electrical contact between the upper electrodes and apical fluid.

hTERT-transfected HNECs were cultured to confluence in the inner chambers of 12-mm Transwell inserts with 0.4-µm pore-size filters (Corning Life Sciences; Tewksbury, MA, USA). TEER was measured using an EVOM voltameter with an ENDOHM-12 (World Precision Instruments; Sarasota, FL, USA) on a heating plate (Fine; Tokyo, Japan) adjusted to 37 °C. The values were expressed in standard units of ohms per square centimeter and presented as the mean ± S.D. For calculation, the resistance of blank filters was subtracted from that of filters covered with cells.

Primary human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PromoCell C-12281) were grown on transwells (Costar, 3460; for transendothelial electrical resistance measurements, TEER) or glass coverslips (for immunofluorescent imaging). TEER was measured using Endohm-12 from World Precision Instruments. For imaging, cells were fixed with 4% PFA and counterstained with DAPI. Confocal imaging was performed with a Quorum TIRF/SD microscope.

TEER Measurement of Cell Monolayers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
TEER measurements were performed according to a protocol adapted from a publication by the L’Oreal Research group89 . TEER was measured using the EVOM2 and the Endohm-12 (World Precision Instruments) and D-PBS (Ca2+, Mg2+) as an electrolyte solution. The day of TEER measurement, 0.3 ml of D-PBS was added onto the apical side of the insert and left to equilibrate for 15 min at 37 °C, and 2.5 ml of D-PBS were added inside an EndOhm Chamber. Following TEER measurements, D-PBS was removed from the apical side to restore the air-liquid interface.

The cells were cultured to confluence in the inner chambers of 12‐mm Transwell 0.4‐μm pore‐size filters (Corning Life Science). Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) was measured using an EVOM voltmeter with an ENDOHM‐12 (World Precision Instruments, Sarasota, FL) on a heating plate (Fine, Tokyo, Japan) and was monitored using a cellZscope (nanoAnalytics, Münster Germany), a computer controlled automated multiwell device (12 wells). The values were expressed in standard units of ohms per square centimeter and presented as the mean ± SD of triplicate experiments. For calculation, the resistance of blank filters was subtracted from that of filters covered with cells.

Assessing Epithelial Barrier Integrity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Trans-epithelial electrical resistance: This method evaluates barrier integrity of epithelial cells grown in monolayer; by describing the impedance of barrier-forming cell cultures. Briefly, electrodes are placed on both sides of the cellular barrier and an electric current is applied. The resulting current established in the circuit is measured and trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) is calculated. The higher the TEER, the better the membrane integrity[32 ]. In this study, HT-29, HT-29 Cx43D, and HT-29 Cx43- cells were cultured on Transwell® inserts with 0.4 μm-pore size filters (Corning, Corning, NY, United States). TEER was measured on confluent cells in the presence or absence of 2% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) using an EVOM voltmeter with an ENDOHM-12 (World Precision Instruments, Sarasota, FL, United States). Electrical resistance was expressed as Ω × cm2. DSS was applied onto the cells to reproduce in vitro the membrane breach it is known to induce in vivo and characterize the loss of membrane integrity. TEER was calculated by subtracting the resistance of blank filters from that of filters covered with a monolayer of parental HT-29, HT-29 Cx43D, or HT-29 Cx43- cells.

Caco-2 cells were cultured on Transwell inserts with 3-μm–pore size filters (Falcon® Cell Culture Inserts, Sterile, Corning®). Five days post-confluence, the TEER was measured over a period of 24 h using an EVOM voltmeter with an ENDOHM-12 (World Precision Instruments, Florida USA). Electrical resistance was expressed as Ω × cm2. The TEER was calculated by subtracting the resistance of blank filters from that of filters covered with a monolayer of Caco-2 cells.

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.
