Viral Infection Assays in JEG-3 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
JEG-3 cells were infected with ZIKV for 1 h in DMEM (Gibco) with 2% FCS at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 2.0. Virus was aspirated and fresh culture medium added. Infected cells were cultured for the indicated times before harvesting for assay. In some cases, JEG-3 cells were pretreated with 10 μM salubrinal (Sigma) for 1 h before infection, and salubrinal was retained in the culture medium post infection. JEG-3 cells were infected with MOI 0.5 HSV-2 for 1 h, then medium was aspirated and cells cultured in fresh medium for 1 or 2 days. For HCMV infection, cells were spinoculated (1 h, 2,800 rpm) with MOI 4.0 virus, which was maintained during 12 h of culture at 37 °C. Spinoculation and culture were repeated once or twice to enhance infection rates, and then medium was aspirated and cells cultured in fresh medium for 12 h before harvesting. In some experiments, cells were treated with 0.5 μg ml–1 tunicamycin for 24 h, with or without salubrinal pretreatment 1 h earlier. salubrinal was retained in culture throughout tunicamycin treatment.

The human HPV‐negative OSCC cell lines FaDu and Detroit562 were cultured in minimum essential medium containing 10% heat‐inactivated fetal bovine serum, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 µg/mL at 37°C and 5% CO2.
The radioresistant FaDu and Detroit562 cell lines were established according to a previously published protocol.12 Briefly, 1000 cells/cm2 FaDu and Detroit562 cells were seeded in six‐well plates and allowed to attach for 24 hours before receiving 4 and 3 Gy of irradiation, respectively. The cells were then cultured for 10‐14 days to form colonies. The culturing and irradiation process was repeated four times with single‐cell clones. The resultant radioresistant cells are denoted as FaDuR and Detroit562R, whereas non‐irradiated parental cells are denoted as FaDuP and Detroit562P.

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.
