Runx1 Regulation of Indian Hedgehog Promoter

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ihh promoter sequences were analyzed for putative Runx binding sites with PROMO3.0 (http://alggen.lsi.upc.es/) using version 8.3 of the TRANSFAC database. The promoter region (−) and (+) of the mouse Ihh gene was amplified by PCR from a murine Ihh BAC clone (CH29–567C21; CHORI). Primer sequences are available in Table S3. Then the promoter regions were inserted into the pGL3-basic vector to construct the pGL3-Ihh promoter fragments. ATDC5 cells (Sigma) were cultured in 24-well plates, were transfected with the DNA mixture containing different pGL3-Ihh construct (0.3μg) and β-GAL-expressing plasmids (0.06 μg), with or without Runx1 expressing vector (psport6-CMV-Runx1, 0.3μg) using a calcium phosphate co-precipitation method. Luciferase was detected using Glo Luciferase Assay System (Promega) as described [20 (link), 22 (link)]. The β-GAL activity of the cell lysates was analyzed using β-Galactosidase Enzyme Assay System (E2000; Promega). The level of luciferase activity was normalized to the level of β-GAL activity.

Murine chondrogenic ATDC5 cells (Sigma-Aldrich; 99072806) were cultured in DMEM:F12 (Gibco, Billings, MT, USA; 11320-033) with 5% FCS (Gibco; 10437-028) and 100 U/mL penicillin and streptomycin (Gibco; 15140122) at 37 °C, 5% CO2 and 95% relative humidity.
Primary murine chondrocytes were isolated from rib cage cartilage of 10-day-old mice by collagenase (Sigma-Aldrich; C9891) digestion in DMEM:F12 and cultured in DMEM:F12 with 10% FCS and 50 μg/mL ascorbic acid at 37 °C, 5% CO2 5% O2 and 95% relative humidity.

Isolation and Culture of Osteoblasts, Osteoclasts, and Chondrogenic Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The chondrogenic ATDC5 cells were purchased from Sigma and cultured in DMEM/Ham’s F12 medium supplemented with 2% FBS, 2 mM l-glutamine and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. In addition, primary osteoprogenitors (COB) were isolated from calvaria of 5-day-old wild-type neonates (C57BL/6 J) using Collagenase type II (50 mg/ml, Worthington, LS004176) and Dispase II (100 mg/ml, Roche, 10165859001) and were maintained in α-MEM medium (Gibco) containing 10% FBS (Gibco), 2 mM l-glutamine (Corning), 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Corning), and 1% nonessential amino acids (Corning). COBs were differentiated with ascorbic acid (200 uM, Sigma, A8960) and β-glycerophosphate (10 mM, Sigma, G9422). Finally, bone marrow cells were flushed from the femurs and tibias of 2-month-old mice (C57BL/6 J), and cultured in petri dishes in α-MEM medium with 10% FBS and 20 ng/ml of M-CSF (R&D systems) to obtain bone BM-OCP. After 12 h, nonadherent cells were replated into tissue culture dishes and cultured in the same medium for 3 days. BM-OCPs then differentiated into osteoclasts in the presence of RAMKL (20 ng/ml; R&D systems) and M-CSF (20 ng/ml; R&D systems) for 6 days.

ATDC5 Chondrocyte Maturation and IL-6 Response

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ATDC5 cells (Sigma, 99072806) were maintained in DMEM/F-12 (1:1) medium (Gibco, 11330032) supplemented with 5% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. ATDC5 cells were maturated in DMEM/F-12 (1:1) medium supplemented with 5% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 1% ITS premix (Corning, 354352), 50μg/ml ascorbic acid, 10nM dexamethasone, and 10ng/ml TGF-β3 (Sigma, SRP6552) for 5, 10, and 15 days.
Both wild type and Adgrg6 KO ATDC5 cells were treated with 100ng/ml recombinant human IL-6 protein (rIL-6) (R&D System, 206-IL) for 2 hours before protein extraction. Both wild type and Adgrg6 KO ATDC5 cells were treated with 10nM Stattic in maturation medium for 10 days before RNA extraction.

ATDC5 cells (Sigma) were maintained in DMEM/F12 (Life Technologies) supplemented with 5% FBS (Life Technologies) and 1% Antibiotic-Antimycotic (Life Technologies). Chondrogenesis of ATDC5 cells was induced with chondrogenic differentiation medium (ITS+) consisting of the growth medium supplemented with 1% ITS+ Premix (Corning) and 50 μg/ml ascorbate acid-2-phosphate (Sigma). Co-treatment medium (ITS+/βGP) consists of ITS+ medium supplemented with 10 mM β-glycerophosphate (Sigma). Non-chondrogenic mineralizing medium (βGP) consists of growth medium supplemented with 10mM βGP. Calcium concentration was maintained at 1.3mM.

ATDC5 Chondrogenic Differentiation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse chondrogenic ATDC5 cells (Sigma Aldrich) were grown in a proliferation medium (DMEM/F-12, GlutaMAX supplement (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 5% fetal bovine serum (Biowest), and 0.5 % Pen-Strep (Invitrogen)), under a humidified atmosphere at 37 °C, 5% CO2. Upon reaching confluency, cells were harvested and plated at 6400 cells·cm-2. Chondrogenic differentiation was induced by replacing the proliferation medium with a differentiation medium (proliferation medium supplemented with 10 μg mL−1 insulin (Sigma-Aldrich), 10 μg·mL−1 transferrin (Sigma-Aldrich), 30 nM sodium selenite (Sigma-Aldrich), 50 μg mL−1 ascorbic acid (Sigma-Aldrich)) and by adding BMP-2 and Noggin at various concentrations. In these experiments, the differentiation medium was refreshed every 3 days.

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.
