Eca-109 human esophageal cancer cells were obtained from Shandong Academy of Medical Sciences (Shandong, China). The cells were incubated at 37°C in 5% CO2 in plastic tissue culture flasks (Corning Inc., Acton, MA, USA) with complete Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)-F12 (Gibco-BRL, Carlsbad, CA, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco-BRL) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (HyClone; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA). Cobble-shaped cells began to expand after two days. At ~80% confluence, the cells were separated by digestion with 0.25% trypsin-EDTA (Gibco-BRL) and passaged into three plastic tissue culture flasks in the growth medium for expansion.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMVCMs) were isolated from the hearts of neonates of CD-1 wild-type mice (Charles River Labs). In brief, hearts were surgically removed from 1-day-old pups and digested in Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (Gibco) with 0.046% Trypsin (Affymetrix) at 4 °C overnight. Blood cells were removed from hearts by type II Collagenase (Worthington) after shaking at 37 °C for two minutes. A heterogeneous cell population containing cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts was isolated after further digestion using type II Collagenase (Worthington) at 37 °C for seven minutes. Fibroblasts were removed by pre-plating for 1.5 hours on 75 cm2 plastic tissue culture flasks (Corning) in a humidified incubator at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Isolated cardiomyocytes were resuspended in dark medium formulated by 75% Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) and 25% M199 medium containing 10 mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 10% horse serum (HyClone), 5% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), and 1% 100x Penicillin/Streptomycin/L-Glutamine solution. Media was replaced daily and on day 3, onward, a 10 μM mM solution of arabinosylcytosine (Ara-C), an antiproliferative drug to prevent noncardiomyocyte overgrowth.

Cell Culture Conditions for HLEF-104 and H9c2 Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, vol/vol), glutamine (0.15%), HEPES (10 mM, pH 7.2) and gentamicin (50 mg/ml).
Cells were grown in plastic tissue culture flasks (Corning Incorporated, Corning, NY, USA) in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C and 90% humidity. Cells were reseeded twice a week. For all experiments, cells from exponentially growing cultures were used. After the cells in the monolayer reached a density of 90%, they were treated with 0.25% trypsin and EDTA and centrifuged at 3,000 g for 5 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the cell pellet was re-suspended in growth medium and the cells were plated in a 96-well plate. All experiments were performed using an HLEF-104 culture <20 passages and an H9c2 culture <25 passages.

Exosome uptake in IPEC-J2 cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Porcine small intestinal epithelial (IPEC-J2) cells were cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium/Ham’s F-12 in a 1:1 ratio (Invitrogen, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum (FCS; Invitrogen) and 5 ng/mL epidermal growth factor (EGF; Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA). IPEC-J2 cells were seeded at 0.5 × 105 cells/mL in a 10 mL volume in plastic tissue culture flasks (75 cm2 Corning, Corning, NY, USA). After reaching confluency (four days)79 (link), the cells were seeded into 6-well tissue culture plates (9.6 cm2/well) at 2.0–2.3 × 105 cells/well in a 2 mL volume. The cells were allowed to adhere for 24 h, and the media were replaced every other day. When the cells were 90% confluent, we added 0.5 mL exosomes or exosome-free supernatants to each well, the equal volume PBS added as control. We determined that a 25% media substitution was optimum. Exosomes suspended in PBS and supernatants were passed through 0.45-μm and 0.22-μm membrane filters prior to incubation. IPEC-J2 cells were harvested after 8 h. we give all the in vitro experiment for three repeats test.

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.
