Culturing and Differentiating Stem Cells

Cells are thawed and seeded on 75 or 150 cm2 cell culture flasks at a density of 10 000 cells per cm2 (Techno Plastic Products AG, Switzerland). All cell culture was performed in humidified incubators at 37 °C, and an HEPA‐filtered atmosphere of air and 5% of CO2. Medium changes were performed every 2–3 days, except where indicated otherwise. Human neonatal dermal fibroblasts (HNDFs, Lonza Wakersville Inc., USA), or red fluorescent protein‐expressing HNDF (HNDF‐RFP, Angio‐Proteomie, USA) were cultured in endothelial cell medium (ScienceCell) supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS, ScienceCell) and endothelial cell growth bullet kit (ScienceCell). MSCs (Lonza) were cultured in Nutristem medium (Biological Industries). Cells were harvested for experiments during passages 4–7 at ≈70% of confluence. For live cell tracking of MSCs or HNDF, cells were labeled with either DiI, DiD, or DiO Vybrant cell labeling solution (Thermo Fisher). For osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, DMEM low‐glucose medium was supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Pen‐Strep, 100 × 10−9m dexamethasone, 10 × 10−3mβ‐glycerol phosphate, and 50 × 10−6m ascorbic acid.

Hypoxic Culture of hESC on HFFs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
hESC colonies were cut into small pieces with a fine glass needle and transferred onto freshly prepared gamma-irradiated HFFs. The cells were then cultured in NutriStem medium (Biological Industries, USA) under hypoxic conditions and were subcultured every 4–5 days when their colonies reached optimal size. For the feeder-free system, hESC colonies were cultured on a Matrigel-coated plate in NutriStem media under hypoxic conditions and subcultured every 4–5 days using Versene treatment (Life Technologies, USA).

The H9 human embryonic stem cell line obtained from WiCell was maintained in Nutristem medium (Biological Industries, 05-100-1A) on 1% Matrigel (Corning, 354230) pre-coated plates and passaged when colonies reached about 90% confluency using TrypLE (Gibco, 12604021) at the ratio 1:5. Cells were checked for normal karyotype and were mycoplasma-free. Unless otherwise specified, organoids shown were generated from H9 cells below passage 60. All cultures were maintained in 5% CO2 incubators at 37°C.

VAL9 hESCs were obtained from the Spanish National Stem Cell Bank (http://www.isciii.es/ISCIII/es) after approval of the InnovaLiv project by the following ethics committees: Spanish “Comision Nacional Medicina Regenerativa” on 21 May 2012 and French Agency of Biomedicine on 25 June 2012. VAL9 hESCs were cultured in feeder-free conditions on culture dishes pre-coated with 0.05 mg/ml Geltrex (Life technologies) in Nutristem medium (Biological industries) supplemented with 8 ng/ml fibroblast growth factor (FGF)2 (CellGenix) at 37 °C/5 % CO2 in animal-free conditions [30 (link)].
The hiPSC line was already established in the laboratory from human foreskin fibroblasts. hiPSCs were maintained on MEF feeders in DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with 20 % knockout serum replacement, 1 mM L-glutamine, 1 % non-essential amino acids, 0.1 mM β-mercaptoethanol and 4 ng/ml FGF2 at 37 °C/5 % CO2. Prior to differentiation, hiPSCs were plated on culture dishes pre-coated with Geltrex and maintained in the same conditions as VAL9 hESCs for a few passages before starting differentiation.

A P2a peptide-hygromycin-HSV thymidine kinase-stop codon-SV40 poly(A)(Hyg-TK) cassette was inserted into exon 4 of FMR1 using CRISPR-mediated homologous recombination. For the details of construct generation, validation, and selection procedure, see Supplemental Experimental Procedures. Knockin lines were maintained in Nutristem medium (Biological Industries) supplemented with 25 μg/mL hygromycin. Positive-negative selection was performed with 10 μM ganciclovir without hygromycin.

Omentum-Derived iPSC Generation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
iPSCs were generated from omental stromal cells and were a kind gift from Dr. Rivka Ofir, Ben Gurion University. The undifferentiated cells were cultivated on culture plates, pre‐coated with Matrigel (BD, New Jersey), diluted to 250 µg mL−1 in DMEM/F12 (Biological Industries), or cultured within the omentum hydrogel. All cells were cultured at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Undifferentiated iPSCs were maintained in NutriStem medium containing 0.1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Biological Industries). Medium was replaced daily and cells were passaged weekly with 1 U mL−1 dispase (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada) followed by mechanical trituration. iPSCs were seeded in small colonies in the presence of Y‐27632 (10 µm; Tocris, UK).

All cell lines mentioned below were cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in a humidified Forma Steri-cycle i160 CO2 incubator (Thermo Fischer Scientific) and were grown in the described media unless otherwise specified. HFF (ATCC® CRL-2429™, male), passage 3–6, were grown in IMDM medium (Biowest) supplemented with 10% Gibco™ Fetal Bovine Serum, Qualified, US Origin, Standard (Sterile-Filtered) (Gibco). RKO cells (ATCC® CRL-2577™, female), passage 3–5, were grown in DMEM supplemented with 2 mM glutamine (Lonza) and 10% FBS. HT29 (ATCC® HTB-38™, female), passage 3–5 were grown in RPMI (Lonza) supplemented with 10% FBS. ESCs, wild-type H9 (WiCell WA-09, female)61 (link), passage 35–40 and HS980, passage 9–25 were grown on LN-521-coated dishes in NutriStem medium (Biological Industries).

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.
