Tumor tissues were dissected from patients, ≥18 years of age with primary GBM tumors, during surgery in the Neurosurgery Department of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University (Hefei, China) and collected in sterile Hibernation media and transported to the laboratory on ice within 1 hr. Patient-derived tumor tissue was cut into small pieces with a scalpel and digested for 30 min at 37°C enzymatically in a mixture consisting of Papain (20 µ/mL, #LK003176, Worthington) and DNase (2000 µ/mL, #LK003170, Worthington). Ovomucoid inhibitor (10 mg/mL, #LK003182, Worthington) was used to stop the enzymatic activity at room temperature and an erythrocyte lysis was performed for further 20 min at room temperature. Seed the primary GBM cells into a GelTrex or Matrigel-coated plastic flask and cultivate in RPMI 1640 (R8758, Sigma) supplemented with 10% FCS (F7524, Sigma) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (P0781, Sigma). Two primary cell lines (T76, H34) isolated from patient tumor tissue were included in this experimental study. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Informed consent was obtained from all the patients.

Microglia Isolation from Human Brain

Fresh postmortem adult human brain tissue was provided by the Netherlands Brain Bank (NBB). All subjects gave their informed consent for inclusion before they participated in the study. Primary microglia were isolated according to the protocol described before with some minor modifications for human brain tissue [49 (link)]. Organoids were dissociated into a single-cell suspension by enzymatic dissociation using papain (18.6 U/mL, Worthington, LK003176, Columbus, OH, USA) and DNAse 1 (337 U/mL, Worthington, LK003170) according to the protocol published before [45 (link)].
Microglia enrichment was achieved by positive selection for CD11b expression, using magnetic-activated cell sorting (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Primary microglia (pMG) or organoid-derived microglia (oMG) were cultured in poly-L-lysine hydrobromide (PLL)-coated 96-well plates (1 × 105 cells/well) in microglia medium (RPMI 1640; Gibco Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 10% FCS, 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco Life Technologies, USA) and 100 ng/mL IL-34 (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany)).

Single-cell Transcriptome Profiling with Fluidigm and Smart-seq2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were dissociated using accutase supplemented with DNase (Worthington Biochemical, LK003170). A 100-μm nozzle was used for sorting. Cells were sorted by BD Facs Aria, 20 psi, 40–100 ev/s into 96-well plates (one cell per well) containing 5 μL lysis buffer. For Fluidigm Biomark, cells were single-cell sorted into 5 μL of 10 mM Tris (pH 8.0), 0.1 mM EDTA supplemented with SUPERase•In (0.1 U/μL final, Ambion, AM2696), and 0.5% NP40 (Thermo Scientific, PI-28324). For Smart-seq2 library prep, cells were single-cell sorted into 5 μL 1×TCL buffer (QIAGEN, 1031576). After sorting, plates were immediately sealed, spun down for 5 min at 550 × g, and flash frozen on dry ice. Sorted cells were then stored at −80°C. Details on single-cell expression profiling and transcriptomics analysis are provided in the Supplemental Experimental Procedures. To compare the piN cells to publicly available single-cell reference datasets (Pollen et al., 2014 (link), Darmanis et al., 2015 (link)), we performed integrated analysis using Seurat version (v.)2.1

Five organoids per 60 mm dish were washed three times with DPBS (ThermoFisher, 14190094) and immersed in 6 mL of papain (18.6 U/mL, Worthington, LK003176) and DNAse 1 (337 U/mL Worthington, LK003170) in DMEM/F12. Mechanical dissociation using scalpels was followed by a 30 min incubation at 37 °C on a shaker. In all, 2% FBS was added to stop the enzymatic reaction and the resulting single-cell suspension was centrifuged followed by an additional incubation with DNAse 1 (337 U/mL, Roche Diagnostics, 11284932001) in MACs buffer (PBS pH 7.4 (Gibco Life technologies, MA)), 2 mM EDTA (Sigma-Aldrich, The Netherlands) and 1% FBS) at room temperature for 15 min.

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.
