Clonogenic Assay for Cell Viability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Clonogenic assay was realized with cells seeded into 35 mm petri dish in semi-solid methylcellulose medium (Methocult™ M3231 for murin cells or Methocult™ H4230 for human cells, Stemcell Technologies). Cells were treated with the drugs for 72 h and then centrifugated. The pellet was resuspended in Iscove's modified Dulbecco medium (Lonza) supplemented with 2% fetal calf serum and 50 U/ml penicillin, 50 mg/ml streptomycin at 10,000 cells/ml, and cell suspension was added to methylcellulose medium (1000 cells/1ml/dish) and left at 37 °C and 5% CO2. Colony forming efficiency was determined after 7 days using Leica DMI8 inverted microscope (Leica Microsystems) and quantified using Image J software.

HEK293T cells (ATCC® CRL-3216™)were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium without HEPES (DMEM) (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 10% (v/v) inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS; HyClone, Cytiva, Marlborough, MA, USA), penicillin (100 U/mL) and streptomycin (100 µg/mL) (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and maintained in a humidified 10% CO2 incubator at 37 °C. U87/CD4+-CCR5+ cells (NIH AIDS reagent program) [19 (link)] were cultured in Iscove’s modified Dulbecco medium (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 10% (v/v) inactivated FCS, penicillin (100 U/mL) and streptomycin (100 µg/mL), treated once a month with G418 (Sigma-Aldrich St. Louis, MO, USA) and maintained in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at 37 °C.

Eosinophil Differentiation from Cord Blood CD34+ Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CD34+ cells purified from human umbilical cord blood (obtained from the New York Blood Center, New York, NY, USA) were cultured in Iscove’s modified Dulbecco medium (Lonza, Walkersville, MD, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 50 μM β-mercaptoethanol, 10U/mL penicillin and 10 μg/mL streptomycin at 0.3 × 106 cells/mL. To induce eosinophil differentiation, the cells were first expanded in SCF (50 ng/mL), Flt3-L (50 ng/mL), TPO (50 ng/mL), and GM-CSF (0.1 nM) for the first 4 days. Thereafter, cells were cultured in only IL-3 and IL-5 (0.1 nM each), with medium being replenished every 3–4 days. The differentiation stage of the culture was determined by assessing the percentage of mature eosinophils using differential counts of cultured cells stained with Fast Green/Neutral Red. All cytokines were purchased from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN, USA).

Culture and Maintenance of Ph+ Leukemia Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell lines were tested for mycoplasma contamination (PCR Mycoplasma detection set, Takara Bio Inc., Japan) every 6 months. BV173 (CML- lymphoid blast crisis cell line) and SUP-B15 (Ph+ ALL cell line) cells were cultured in Iscove Modified Dulbecco’s Medium (Lonza Inc., Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 1% penicillin- streptomycin, 1% L-glutamine, at 37°C, 5% CO2.
Primary Ph+ adult ALL (n=6) or CML-lymphoid blast crisis (n=1) cells derived from the peripheral blood (n=2) or the bone marrow (n=5) (average 77% blasts; range: 52–98%) were kindly provided by Dr Michael Caligiuri (Ohio State University, Columbus, OH) and Dr Martin Carroll (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA) and were maintained in SFEM (Stem Cell Technology, Vancouver, Canada) supplemented with IL-3 (10 ng/ml), IL-7 (10 ng/ml), Flt3-L (20 ng/ml) and SCF (30 ng/ml) (ProSpec, Israel).

Transduction of CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PB CD34+ samples were obtained from healthy donors from plerixafor and G-CSF mobilization. Cells were thawed and plated at 1 × 106 cells/mL on non-tissue culture-treated 96-well plates pre-coated with retronectin (20 μg/mL; Takara Shuzo). Cells were pre-stimulated for 24 h in X-Vivo 15 medium (Lonza) supplemented with 1× glutamine, penicillin, and streptomycin (Gemini Bio-Products), human Flt-3 ligand (50 ng/mL), human SCF (50 ng/mL), human TPO (50 ng/mL), and human IL-3 (20 ng/mL) (cytokines: PeproTech). CD34+ cells were transduced with concentrated viral supernatants at transduction concentrations of 2 × 105 TU/mL, 6 × 105 TU/mL, 2 × 106 TU/mL, and 6 × 106 TU/mL with transduction enhancer Poloxamer 338 (1 mg/mL) (BASF, Ludwigshafen, Germany). At 24 h after transduction, cells were washed and plated under myeloid culture conditions. Cells were cultured for 2 weeks after transduction in basal bone marrow media consisting of Iscove-modified Dulbecco’s medium (Lonza) 1× glutamine, penicillin, and streptomycin (Gemini Bio-Products), 20% fetal bovine serum, and 0.52% BSA (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with human SCF (25 ng/mL), human IL-3 (5 ng/mL), and human IL-6 (10 ng/mL).

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.
