Hypoxanthine aminopterin thymidine

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) is a specialized cell culture medium component used in the selection and maintenance of hybridoma cell lines. It contains hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine, which together inhibit the de novo synthesis of nucleotides, forcing cells to rely on the salvage pathway for nucleotide production. This selective pressure allows for the growth and maintenance of hybridoma cells that have successfully fused with myeloma cells, which possess the necessary enzymes to utilize the salvage pathway.

Hybridoma Generation from Hyperimmunized Mouse

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Splenocytes from a hyperimmunized mouse were isolated and cell fusion was performed using mouse myeloma cells SP2/0 as fusion partner applying Kohler method 11 (link). Hybridoma cells were obtained through the fusion of murine myeloid cells called SP2/0 with-BALB/c immunized mouse spleen cells. A mixture of cells (with the 1 ratio of SP2/0 to 5 ratio splenocytes) was washed with serum-free RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, NY, USA), and then pre-warmed 50% polyethylene glycol (PEG 1500) (Sigma, Germany) was added with gentle shaking; after that the cells were washed again for the last time. For the next step cells were cultured in 96 well plates with Hypoxanthine Aminopterin-Thymidine (HAT, Sigma) as a differential medium for separating hybridoma cells. By limiting dilutions, the whole 96-well plate was screened by ELISA. To select productive clones, the limiting dilutions, were repeated four times.

A total of 6 Balb/c mice were immunized with recombinant human extracellular Siglec-15 (Fc tag) fragments at days 1, 7, and 14. The splenic cells were fused with the SP2/0 cell line at a ratio of 5:1–3:1 by electrofusion. Hybridomas were maintained in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FBS and hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT, Sigma-Aldrich) medium in 96-well microtiter plates for 8–10 days. Then, we changed the medium to hypoxanthine-thymidine (HT, Sigma-Aldrich) medium for an additional 3–5 days. The supernatant from each well was subjected to an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a recombinant human extracellular Siglec-15 (His tag) fragment. Positive hybridoma clones were then selected and further tested for their activities.

Six- to-8week female BALB/c mice were immunized subcutaneously with 100 μg recombinant His-PDCoV N protein emulsified with freund complete adjuvant (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), followed by immunized with 100 μg recombinant His-N protein emulsified with incomplete adjuvant (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) every two weeks. One week after the third immunization, the antibody titer of mice was measured, once the antibody titer of immunized mice reached 10–6, 50 μg recombinant His-PDCoV N protein without adjuvant was injected intraperitoneally. Three days later, spleen B lymphocytes and SP 2/0 cells were collected and fused with polyethylene glycol 2000 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Hybridoma cells were selected in RPMI 1640 medium containing hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). The positive cell clones were screened by indirect indirect ELISA, then subcloned by limited dilution method at least three rounds. To generate monoclonal antibodies, the obtained antibody-secreting cells were intraperitoneally injected into sensitized mice with incomplete adjuvant. The subtypes of monoclonal antibodies were identified using the monoclonal antibody isotyping determination kit (Biodragon Immunotechnologies, China).

Two 5-week-old (Balb/C) mice were immunized using the recombinant antigen. The experimental protocol was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Review Committee of Bore Da BioTECH (BDIACUC20180221). After preparing the antigen at 1 mg/mL, an emulsion was prepared by mixing with complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA; Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany) at a ratio of 1:1. The first immunization was performed on the sole of each mouse (100 µL). The second immunization was performed two weeks after the first immunization and then weekly, starting with the third immunization. From the second immunization to the fourth and final immunization, 75 µL was used. One week later, the mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, and the lymph nodes were removed. The extracted lymph nodes were fused with Sp2/O, a mouse myeloma cell line, using polyethylene glycol 1500 (Roche, Switzerland). To selectively culture the fused cells, hypoxanthine aminopterin thymidine (HAT, Sigma-Aldrich) medium was used. After preparing a 96-well plate and dispensing 200 µL/well, each plate was incubated at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator.

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.
