HTR-8/SVneo cells were cultured on 24-well plates with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM, Wako) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and antibiotic-antimycotic solution at 37 °C under 5% CO2. Human villous cytotrophoblast cells were isolated from normal term placentas, and in-vitro syncytialization of isolated cytotrophoblasts were conducted as previously reported11 (link). Briefly, only HLA-ABC negative cells were collected using a Mini MACS TM separator (Miltenyi Biotec). Purified cytotrophoblasts were diluted in Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Medium (IMDM) (GE Healthcare) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% antibiotic-antimycotic (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 200 mM L-glutamine and 10 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF). After seeding the isolated cytotrophoblasts, spontaneous cell fusion occurred simultaneous with syncytialization in vivo. After 96 hours in culture, the culture wells were covered by a monolayer of syncytialized trophoblast, then treated with 100 pg/ml recombinant human TNFSF14/LIGHT (R&D) for 18 hours.

Genetically Modified HeLa Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The HeLa-mCAT#8 cell line that stably expresses the mouse ecotropic retroviral receptor mCAT-1 was used as the HeLa WT cell line, and its CERT1-disrupted mutant cell line was used as the HeLa CERT KO cell line [5 (link)] unless otherwise noted. To avoid unwanted overexpression of CERT cDNAs, the HeLa CERT KO/shCERT cell line was used. The HeLa CERT KO/shCERT cell line was established as described in a separate publication (Goto et al., submitted). In brief, the CERT KO cells were transfected using a retroviral vector containing a short hairpin RNA against CERT1 RNA to interfere with the expression of CERT1 mRNA. Then, a stable clone was isolated and used as the parental HeLa CERT KO/shCERT cell line. The CERS2 KO cell line (#16) was established as described previously [6 (link)]. HeLa cells were cultured in high glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (D-MEM; 044-29765, Wako, Osaka, Japan) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum.

Isolation of ADSCs was performed according to our previous report [6 (link)]. Briefly, ~2 g to 3 g of adipose tissue was resected, washed with
Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline (DPBS; Wako, Osaka, Japan), and cut into fine pieces,
which were incubated at 37.5°C for 1 hr with shaking in high-glucose Dulbecco’s modified
Eagle medium (DMEM; Wako) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Sigma-Aldrich,
St. Louis, MO, USA), penicillin (100 U/ml)/streptomycin (100
µg/ml), amphotericin B (0.25
µg/ml) (100× antibiotic–antimycotic mixed stock
solution; Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan), and collagenase type I (1.0
mg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich). The digested tissue was filtered through a
sterile 100-µm nylon mesh (EASYstrainer, 100 µm; Greiner
Bio-one Japan, Tokyo, Japan), followed by centrifugation at 775 g for 5 min in 30
ml of DPBS with 1% FBS and 1 mM EDTA·3Na (Wako) (FACS buffer). The
pellet was resuspended in DMEM and seeded on culture plates with a 10-cm diameter
(Corning, Corning, NY, USA). Upon reaching 80% to 90% confluence, ADSCs were passaged on
two culture plates (10-cm diameter) using trypsin/EDTA (0.05% w/v Trypsin-0.53
mmol/l EDTA 4Na Solution with Phenol Red; Wako) after confirming the
lack of bacterial contamination. Four cell passages were performed with the same protocol,
with cultures subsequently reaching 80% to 90% confluence in a total of eight dishes.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NRCMs were isolated from neonatal Wistar rats as described previously [15 (link)]. The hearts harvested from 1–3-day-old Wistar rats were washed in PBS with 20 mM 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM) on ice. Then, the ventricles of the hearts were minced into small pieces and washed in wash solution (Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution with 0.08% trypsin and 20 mM BDM) for 2 h at 4 °C with stirring followed by an incubation in collagenase solution (Leibovitz’s L15 medium with 0.15% collagenase and 20 mM BDM) for 30 min at 37 °C. The suspension, tissue fragments of which were removed by filtration, was centrifuged at 100× g for 5 min at 4 °C, and the pellet was resuspended in high- glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM; Wako, Osaka, Japan) containing 10% feral bovine serum (FBS; Gibco/Lifetechnologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1% antibiotic-antimycotic mixed solution (Nacalai tesque, Kyoto, Japan) and 100 µM bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU). The cell suspension was pre-plated for 90 min twice to remove the attached non-cardiomyocytes. The non-attached cardiomyocytes were collected, seeded and cultured on culture dishes (for lucigenin assay) or coverslips coated with 1% gelatin (for DCF-DA staining or measurement of [Ca2+]i) in high-glucose DMEM containing 10% FBS, 1% antibiotic-antimycotic mixed solution and 100 µM BrdU.

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.
