The human bronchial epithelial cell (HBEC6-KT) line was cultured in Keratinocyte Serum-Free Medium 1X (Gibco) according to the manufacturers directions and supplemented with P/S (VWR) at 1X70 (link). Human airway epithelial cell line Calu-3 (ATCC HTB-55) were cultured in Minimum Essential Medium Alpha Medium (Corning) and supplemented with Premium Grade FBS (VWR) at 10%, HEPES (Corning) at 1X, and P/S (VWR) at 1X. The following chemical reagents were dissolved in DMSO, cAMP elevating agents Forskolin (Cayman Chemical) and Isoproterenol (Cayman Chemical), ABCC4 inhibitors MK-571 (Cayman Chemical) and Ceefourin 1 (Abcam), PDE inhibitors Roflumilast (Cayman Chemical) and Rolipram (Cayman Chemical), and CFTR Inhibitor (Selleck Chemicals).

Culturing Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells were purchased from Lonza (U.S.A.) and cultured in Minimum Essential Medium Alpha Medium (Corning, U.S.A.) containing 2 mM L-Glutamine and sodium pyruvate (Lonza, U.S.A) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Life Technologies, U.S.A.), 100 U/mL penicillin (Lonza, U.S.A.) and 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Lonza, U.S.A.) at 37 °C in 5% CO2 atmosphere. All cellular experiments were conducted using adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells of passage 6 or lower. Culture media without sodium pyruvate was used whenever hydrogen peroxide was involved.

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.
