Culturing Primary Fibroblasts and HUVECs

Primary fibroblasts were a kind gift from Søren R. Paludan (Aarhus University) and were cultured in high-glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (Gibco), 2mM L-glutamine (Gibco) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco).
Primary, single-donor early passage HUVECs were kindly provided by Dr. Joanna Kalucka (Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark) and were obtained from Lonza, cultured at 37 °C, 5% CO2 humidified incubators, and regularly tested for mycoplasma. HUVECs were maintained in M199 medium (1 mg/mL D-glucose) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Biochrom BmgH), 2 mM L-glutamine (Thermo Fisher Scientific), Endothelial Cell Growth Supplement (ECGS)/ Heparin (PromoCell), 100 IU/mL penicillin and 100 mg/mL streptomycin (Thermo Fisher Scientific). For performed experiments, HUVECs were seeded in endothelial cell basal medium (EGM2) (PromoCell) supplemented with endothelial cell growth medium supplement pack (PromoCell). In all experiments, HUVECs were always used as single-donor cultures and were used between passages 2 and 4.

HUVEC and Senescent Cells Cultivation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and senescent cells were prepared as previously described [18 (link)]. Briefly, 1×104 cells per cm2 were seeded in petri dishes coated with 1% gelatin and cultivated in RPMI-1640 complete medium supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum (FCS), 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and Endothelial Cell Growth Medium SupplementPack (C-39210, Promocell) at 37 °C in a 95% air and 5% CO2 atmosphere. Cells of passages 1-3 (P1 to P3) were defined as young cells. Young cells were further split in a ratio of 1-3 continuously over the course of several weeks until replicative senescence was observed as determined by SA-ꞵ-gal staining (P9 to P12). In this study, non-senescent endothelial cells are referenced as “young cells” [18 (link)]. The model of S6K1 driving endothelial cells senescence was performed as described by Rajapakse et al. [18 (link)]. Lentivirus was used to transduce cells for gene silencing or overexpression as described previously [18 (link)]. THP-1 cells were grown in RPMI-1640 containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (HIFBS) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin [20 (link)].

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.
