Human hepatocyte suspensions (see Isolation of EpCAM+ cell from primary human liver) were washed as described, spun down and resuspended in 35 ml Advanced DMEM/F12 (GIBCO) + 13.5 ml Percoll (GE healthcare, density 1.130 g/ml) + 1.5 ml 10x HBSS (GIBCO). Cells were pelleted at 100 g for 10 min and washed 3 times in Advanced DMEM/F12 (GIBCO). Viable cells were counted with Trypan blue and 10.000 viable cells per 50 ul drop were seeded into matrigel. Remaining cells were stained for EpCAM as described above (see Isolation of EpCAM+ cells from primary human liver) or seeded onto collagen coated tissue culture plates for subsequent determination of cytochrome 3A4 activity. To measure Cyp3a4 in primary hepatocytes, the seeded cells were cultured in Williams E medium (GIBCO) containing Hepatocyte plating supplement pack (GIBCO) for 4 days with daily medium changes. On day 0 and day 4 the cells were incubated with Luciferin-PFBE substrate (50 μM) and Cytochrome P450 activity was measured using the P450-Glo Assay Kit (Promega) according to manufacturer’s instructions and normalized to the number of cells in the plate. HepG2 cells cultured in the same medium served as controls.

The tonsil samples were chopped and washed with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (D-PBS; Welgene, Daegu, Korea) and then enzymatically digested with 1 mg/mL collagenase II (Gibco) in advanced DMEM/F12 (Gibco) for 2 h at 37 °C. After digestion, isolated cells were embedded in Matrigel (Corning Inc., Corning, NY, USA) in a 48-well plate (SPL Inc., Seongnam, Korea) and incubated at 37 °C for 10 min to polymerize the matrices. Tonsil organoids were cultured in advanced DMEM/F12 supplemented with Antibiotic–Antimycotic, Glutamax (Thermo Fisher Scientific), B27 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 10% conditioned media from Cultrex HA-R-spondin1-Fc 293T cells (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), and the following growth factors: 50 ng/mL recombinant murine HGF (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA), 100 ng/mL noggin (ProSpec, St. Paul, MN, USA), 20 nM A83-01 (Sigma), 50 ng/mL human FGF10 (ATGen, Seongnam, Korea), 20 ng/mL human bFGF (Peprotech), 10 μM prostaglandin E2 (BioGems, Westlake Village, CA, USA), and 10 mM nicotinamide (Sigma). For passage, organoids were dissociated by incubation in 0.25% trypsin-EDTA (Invitrogen, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA) every 7–10 days depending on the number and size of organoids. For the first 2 days at every passage, 10 μM Y-27632 (Tocris Biosciences, Bristol, UK) was added to the culture medium.

Cancer organoid cultures were established and propagated as previously described (Sato et al., 2011 (link); Schütte et al., 2017 (link)). Briefly, resected tumor samples were enzymatically digested with Collagenase IV (C9407, Sigma-Aldrich), DNaseI (A3778,0050, AppliChem) and Dispase (07913, Stem Cell Technologies) at 37°C for 60  min. Suspensions were washed, filtered, and depleted of red blood cells using Red Blood Cell Lysis Solution (00-4333-57, Invitrogen). Cells were mixed with phenol-red free growth factor-reduced Matrigel (356231, Corning) and seeded into 24-well plates.

Lund human mesencephalic (LUHMES) cells were a kind gift from M. Leist and D. Scholz, University of Konstanz, Germany. LUHMES cells are conditionally immortalized cells with neuronal features that can be differentiated by shutting-down the myc transgene leading to uniformly post-mitotic neurons within 5 d84 (link). LUHMES cells were plated in 50 μg/ml poly-L-ornithine (Sigma-Aldrich) and 1 μg/ml fibronectin (Sigma-Aldrich) coated flasks/plates and cultured in proliferation medium containing advanced DMEM/F12 (Gibco), 2 mM L-glutamine (Gibco), 1% N-2 supplement (Invitrogen) and 40 ng/ml recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, R&D Systems) at 37 °C and 5% CO2. For differentiation, 2 × 106 cells were seeded in T75 flasks in proliferation medium. After 48 h proliferation medium was replaced by differentiation medium containing advanced DMEM/F12 (Gibco), 2 mM L-glutamine (Gibco), 1% N-2 supplement (Invitrogen), 1 μg/ml tetracycline (Sigma-Aldrich), 1 mM dibutyryl cAMP (Sigma-Aldrich) and 2 ng/ml glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF, R&D Systems). After additional 48 h, pre-differentiated LUHMES cells were re-seeded at a density of 1.3 × 105 cells/cm2 and kept for another 72 h in differentiation medium (5 d differentiation) prior to treatment.

For Wnt signaling evaluation, cultures were incubated with 100 nM LGK974 free in solution or within CD:LGK974 complexes every two days (3 treatments total) over the course of one week. To measure uptake and diffusion of calcein in organoids after CD:LGK974 treatment, the medium was removed from organoids and replaced with serum-free DMEM containing 1 μM calcein-AM (Invitrogen). Calcein uptake was observed 2 h post-treatment using fluorescence microscopy. Images were acquired using a Nikon A1R confocal microscope.

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.
