Established A549 and H1299 cell lines were purchased from Fuheng Biotechnology (Shanghai, China). All the cell lines were validated by short tandem repeat analysis. Patient-derived primary LUAD cells were established from LUAD tissues as previously described [49 (link)]. Briefly, fresh tissues less than 1.0 cm3 without necrosis were immediately rinsed 3 times with cold Dulbecco’s Phosphate Buffered saline and then re-suspended in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing collagenase I (2 mg/ mL, Solarbio, Shanghai) at 37 °C for 4 h. After being rinsed with DMEM 3 times, cells were cultured at 37 °C, 5% CO2 condition. For monolayer culture, cells were cultured in DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. For 3D spheroid culture, basement membrane extract (BME) (Trevigen, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) was seeded in a 96-well plate at 50 μl/well and pre-warmed at 37 °C for 0.5 h. Then, cells were seeded on top of the plate coated with BME at a density of 105 cells per well. Images were captured using a microscope [49 (link)].

Stromal-vascular fractions (SVF) were isolated as previously described [5 (link),12 (link)]. Briefly, inguinal white adipose tissues were dissected from 8-week-old mice, minced and digested in 1.5 %BSA KRBH containing 1 mg/ml collagenase I (Solarbio, China) at 37 °C for 1h. Digested tissue was filtered through 100 μm nylon mesh and centrifuged to separate floating adipocytes. The resulting pellet (SVF) was cultured in DMEM, supplemented with 10 % FBS, 1 % MEM non-essential Amino acid solution (11140050, Gibco), 1 % GlutaMax (35050061, Gibco) and 100U/ml penicillin and streptomycin (growth medium). Adipogenesis was induced by incubation in growth medium supplemented with 1x ITS (Gibco), 1 μM dexamethasone, 33 μM Biotin, 2 nM T3, 17 μM Pantothenate, 0.5 mM IBMX and 1 μM rosiglitazone (differentiation medium). After 2–4 days, the medium was changed to differentiation medium without IBMX and rosiglitazone (maintenance medium), and then changed again every 2 days until full differentiation (i.e., day 8–10). For activin B treatments, matured adipocytes were serum starved for 2h and then incubated with indicated concentration of activin B for either 20min for detection of SMAD phosphorylation levels, or 24h for RNA extraction. For CL-316,243 treatment, matured adipocytes were incubated with 10 μM CL-316,243 for 20min before harvested for protein extraction.

The rat alveolar type II epithelial cell line RLE-6TN (Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY) cells were randomly divided into a model group ((85% O2; 5% CO2) and a control group (21% O2; 5% CO2) and harvested after 12, 24, and 48 h of culture for the subsequent experiments. The siRNA sequence that targets rat Rad1 (siRad1) was designed and synthesized by Shanghai Hanbio Biotechnology Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) and transfected with Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). The plasmid DNA clones for rat Rad1 and the empty vector were purchased from Shanghai GenePharma Co., Ltd.

Newborn 3–7 days C57BL/6 mice were killed, and the lungs from the thoraxes were obtained under sterile conditions. The lung was washed twice with sterile PBS containing 20% concentration of penicillin streptomycin mixing liquid (Solarbio, China).

Further, an 80 μm cell strainer was used to filter the cells. Following, the cells were resuspended in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s media and Ham’s F-12 (DMEM/F-12) (Hyclone, USA) containing 10% fetal calf serum (FBS) (CellMax, Australia), 1% penicillin streptomycin mixing liquid (Solarbio, China) and incubated at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2. We performed anti-Vimentin immunofluorescence staining to identify cells for >90% fibroblasts, and performed anti-Prosurfactant protein C (proSP-C) immunofluorescence staining to identify cells for <5% alveolar epithelial cells. Cells were used between the third and sixth passages and photographed.

Abdominal subcutaneous fat was taken from three Xianan fetal cows of about three months’ size, and the adipose tissue was washed twice with phosphate buffer solution (PBS) containing 2% Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution (Procell, Wuhan, China), and then cut into a mud with scissors. Afterwards, the tissue was added to a digestion solution containing 0.2% Collagenase I (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and placed in a 37 °C water bath to digest the tissue into a flocculent mass.
After digestion, the cells were filtered through a 40 mesh sieve, a 200 mesh sieve, and a 400 mesh sieve in order to remove undigested tissues. After centrifugation at 1000 rpm for 5 min, the cells were resuspended in DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and %1 Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution and inoculated at a density of approximately 1 × 106 cells into 25 cm2 culture flasks. After adding complete medium (DMEM/F12 containing 10% FBS and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution) to the culture flasks, the flasks were incubated at 37° in an incubator containing 5% CO2.

The longest dorsal muscle of a three-month-old calf was taken and isolated into muscle cells. Skin, fascia, and other tissues were stripped from the longest dorsal muscle tissue of fetal bulls, and the muscle tissue was minced into the smallest possible pieces with scissors. The tissue was shaken with collagenase I (Solarbio, Beijing, China) for 1 h at 37 °C and then centrifuged at 1500× g to obtain the precipitate. Subsequently, trypsin was added for 20–25 min, and digestion was terminated with a DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA). The cells were then filtered through 100 mesh and 70 mesh filters and centrifuged at 1500 rpm to obtain a cell precipitate. Finally, the cells were resuspended in a medium containing 20% FBS (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA). After 2 h of incubation in a 37 °C incubator, the cell cultures and supernatants were inoculated into cell culture plates at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for a subsequent passaging culture. When cell proliferation reached 80%, a differentiation medium containing 2% horse serum (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) was used instead of the growth medium to induce cell differentiation.

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.
