Chicken primary myoblasts were isolated from the chicken leg and breast muscle of day 10 embryo as previous described.12 Primary myoblast represented the chicken primary myoblasts that have just completed serial plating. Growing myoblast represented myoblasts that were cultured in growth medium with RPMI‐1640 (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA), 15% foetal bovine serum (FBS) (ExCell, Shanghai, China), 10% chicken embryo extract, and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco) at 37°C in 5% CO2. Differentiated myotube (DM) represented myoblasts induced to differentiation for 4 days by culturing the cells in differentiation medium (RPMI‐1640 without FBS containing 2% horse serum) when 90% confluent.
Mouse primary myoblasts were isolated and cultured as previously described.13 Cells were isolated from the forelimbs and hindlimbs of 3‐week‐old mice, minced and digested in a solution of dispase B and type I collagenase. Growth medium consisted of Ham's F‐10 nutrient mixture (Gibco) supplemented with 20% FBS (ExCell) and 2.5 ng/mL bFGF (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Differentiation medium consisted of DMEM (Gibco) supplemented with 2% horse serum (Gibco). All medium contained 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco).

Five times of 105 muscle-derived primary cells were seeded onto 35-mm culture dishes (SPL) and cultured in Ham’s F10 nutrient mixture (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA ) supplemented with 15% (v/v) FBS, 2.5 ng/ml basic fibroblast growth factor (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA), and 1% (v/v) antibiotic-antimycotic (herein referred to as proliferation medium). After culture for 24 h, floating (non-adherent) cells were collected and centrifuged at 1,500×g for 4 min. The pellets were then re-suspended in fresh proliferation medium and incubated in 35-mm culture dishes at 37℃ in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air. After 72 h, adherent cells were retrieved via treatment with 0.25% trypsin-EDTA (Welgene), washed with fresh proliferation medium, and used for the following experiments. Details of the DP method are shown in Fig. S1.

GH4C1 cells stably transfected with pCEP4/rat α7 nAChR were obtained from Siena Biotech S.p.A. (Siena, Italy). GH4C1 cells endogenously express the assembly promoting chaperone protein RIC-3 (Williams et al., 2005 (link)). Cells were cultured in poly-L-lysine (PLL)-coated standard tissue culture flasks (T-25) at 37 °C in 95% humidified air and 5% CO2. Culture medium contained Ham’s F10 Nutrient Mixture (Gibco), 15% horse serum (Gibco), 2.5% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Lonza), 1 mM GlutaMAX (Gibco) and 100 µg/ml Hygromycin B (Invitrogen). Before the experiments, at ∼80% confluency, the cells were plated onto PLL-coated Petri dishes (d = 35 mm) for use on the following day.

Isolation and Differentiation of Mouse Myoblasts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse myoblasts were isolated as described previously with some modifications (17 (link)). Briefly, hindlimbs of 2-day-old C57BL/6J mice were removed and muscle was separated from the skin and bone with sterile forceps. The cells were dispersed with 0.2% collagenase I (Gibco) and 0.2% Dispase II (Sigma-Aldrich) for 30 min, and then filtered through a 40 μm cell strainer. To remove non-myogenic cells, cells were plated on normal culture dish and incubated for 30 min. Subsequently, floating cells were re-plated on a collagen coated culture dish. Myoblasts were initially cultured in Ham's F10 nutrient mixture (Gibco) and then the medium was switched to DMEM/Ham's F10 (1:1). Both growth media were supplemented with 20% FBS, 2.5 ng/ml bFGF and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. To induce differentiation, myoblasts were cultured in DMEM with 5% HS and penicillin/streptomycin. Medium was changed every other day.

Culturing Immortalized BJ Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BJ cells (ATCC), and derivatives, were cultured in Ham's F10 nutrient mixture (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA) supplemented with 15% batch-tested fetal bovine serum (Atlanta Biologicals, Lawrenceville, GA, USA), 20 mm L-glutamine (Cellgro, Manassas, VA, USA), 100 U ml−1 penicillin, and 100 μg ml−1 streptomycin (Cellgro). BJ-hTERT cells were generated by retroviral transduction of BJ cells using the pBabe-hTERT-puro vector followed by drug selection. Cultures were passaged at 1:4 and incubated at 37 °C in atmosphere of 5% CO2 and 2% or 21% Oxygen as indicated. Cells were labeled with 1 μg ml−1 BrdU (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA), and aphidicolin (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA; 0.2 μm) was directly added to the culture medium. Cell proliferation curves were generated by counting cells using a hemocytometer and the formula PD = log2(Nfinal/Ninitial), where Ninitial is the number of cells seeded at each passage and Nfinal is the number of cells recovered from the dish.

Density Gradient Sperm Purification and Cryopreservation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ham's F-10 nutrient mixture (Life Technologies, Paisley, UK) supplemented with 0.6% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 26 mM bicarbonate (NaHCO3) was used to wash all the semen samples at room temperature. Afterwards, the samples were treated by density gradient centrifugation at room temperature, with 80% (v/v) and 40% (v/v) Percoll at a speed of 400 g for 30 minutes. All sperm cell specimens were examined using a phase-contrast microscope, and no other impurities were detected. As the number of sperm cells obtained by centrifugation was inadequate, the spermatozoa of three individuals were combined into one sample. As a result, there were ten samples for each of the IAS and normozoospermic groups. Spermatozoa were washed with cold PBS three times, cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80°C until further metabolite extraction was performed.

Sperm Metabolomic Sample Preparation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All semen samples were washed using Ham's F-10 nutrient mixture (Life Technologies, Paisley, UK) supplemented with 0.6% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 26 mM bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) at room temperature. Samples were then prepared by density gradient centrifugation, using 80% (v/v) and 40% Percoll (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) for 30 min at 400 g, at room temperature. The purity of all sperm samples was checked using phase contrast microscopy and only samples with no detectable contamination with non-sperm cells after processing were used for metabolomic analyses.
Sperm cells were then washed three times with cold PBS and, depending on the metabolomics technique used, cells were frozen with liquid nitrogen and stored at À80 °C for further metabolite extraction (for gas chromatography (GC) time-of flight (TOF)/mass spectrometry (MS) analysis) or metabolites were directly extracted and lyophilized (for proton nuclear magnetic resonance -1 H-NMR)).

For in vitro expansion, MuSCs were cultured in 50% volume of F-10 base medium combined with 50% volume of conditioned medium (NCM, ACM, or F-10 medium). Cells were passaged every 48 h. For differentiation induction, MuSCs were washed three times with PBS and changed into differentiation medium (DMEM containing 2% horse serum, HyClone, cat# HYCLSH30074.03HI, and 1% penicillin/streptomycin) for 48 h.

Skeletal muscle tissues were removed from the limbs of neonatal mice. The tissues were cut into small pieces and digested with the enzyme mixture (1.5 U/mL collagenase D) (Roche) (Basel, Switzerland), 2.5 mM CaCl2 and 2 U/mL Dispase (Roche) (Basel, Switzerland) in serum-free DMEM at 37 °C for 0.5–1 h. Ten milliliters of DMEM was added to the digested mixture and triturated prior to centrifugation at 1500× g for 10 min at room temperature. The pellets were resuspended in Ham’s F-10 nutrient mixture (Thermofisher) (Waltham, MA, USA) containing 20% FBS, bFGF (R&D) (New York, USA) (5 ng/mL) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin and plated in a 10 cm culture dish for 1 h.

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.
