Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Whole blood (~8 mL) was collected from consenting healthy donors using Vacutainer CPT Mononuclear Cell Preparation Tubes (CPT; BD) containing sodium citrate. Tubes were processed according to the manufacturer’s instructions to separate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PBMCs were washed twice in PBS (5 min at 500 × g) at room temperature before being resuspended in complete media (RPMI, 10%FBS, 1% penicillin-streptomycin, and 10 ng mL−1 recombinant human macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF; [R&D Systems]). Isolated PBMCs (1x106 mL−1) were plated on 12 well tissue culture-treated plates in complete media. Complete media was refreshed every 48 hours. After 7 days, adherent M-CSF-derived cells were treated with 100 ng mL−1 lipopolysaccharide from E. coli 055:B5 (LPS; Sigma) and 5 ng mL−1 recombinant human interferon gamma (IFN-γ; R&D Systems) to induce M1 macrophage polarization or with 20 ng mL−1 recombinant human interleukin 4 (IL-4; R&D Systems) to induce M2 macrophage polarization. Cells were harvested and RNA extracted 24 hrs later.

Generation and Maintenance of FOP-iPSC-Derived Immortalized Monocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The FOP-iPSCs used in this study were established from a FOP patient harboring R206H heterozygous mutation in ACVR1 [16 (link)], and mutation-corrected resFOP-iPSCs were generated by BAC-based homologous recombination [6 (link)]. iPSCs were maintained in StemFit AK02N (Ajinomot) on iMatrix 511 silk (Nippi)-coated dishes.
Monocytes were induced from FOP- and resFOP-iPSCs by a previously described method with some modification [17 (link)] and then immortalized using lentivirus vectors containing BMI1, cMYC, and MDM2 genes in the presence of polybrene (Sigma) [18 (link), 19 (link)]. Immortalized monocyte cell lines (FOP- and resFOP-ML) were maintained in StemPro-34 (Gibco) supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine (Gibco), 50 ng/mL recombinant human macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) (R&D Systems), and 50 ng/mL recombinant human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (R&D Systems) [20 (link)]. CD14+ FOP- and resFOP-ML were collected by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) using anti-human CD14 MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec) every time before use in each experiment, as per the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
