Immortalized embryonic hepatocytes were cultured in Medium 199 (WelGENE) that was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (WelGENE) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (WelGENE), as previously described (Back et al., 2009 (link)). AML12 muse normal hepatocytes were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA). The cells were cultured in DMEM/F12 (WelGENE) that was supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (WelGENE), 100 nM dexamethason (Sigma-Aldrich), 1% insulin-transferrin-selenium-pyruvate supplement (ITSP; WelGENE), and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (WelGENE). The Lenti-X 293T Cell Line (Clontech, USA) was cultured in DMEM (WelGENE) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (WelGENE) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (WelGENE).

Dr. Peter Mundel kindly provided conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes [22 (link)]. We cultured the podocytes at 33°C under permissive conditions in DMEM containing 10% FBS and 10 U/mL of mouse recombinant interferon-γ (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) to enhance the expression of a thermosensitive T antigen. For differentiation, we cultured podocytes under nonpermissive conditions at 37°C without interferon-γ for 14 days. We maintained these cells under serum-deprived conditions for 24 hours, treated them with 400 μM of palmitate (Pal) with or without 400 pM of recombinant human klotho protein (R&D systems, USA), oleate (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), or NAC (Sigma-Aldrich) for 24 hours. We then harvested them for the next assay.
Dr. Moin A. Saleem (University of Bristol, Bristol, UK) generously provided human conditionally immortalized podocytes (AB8/23) [23 (link)]. We cultivated the human podocytes at 33°C (permissive conditions) in an RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium-Pyruvate Supplement (ITSP; WelGENE Inc., Daegu, South Korea) to induce expression of a thermosensitive T antigen. For differentiation, we maintained podocytes at 37°C (non-permissive conditions) without ITSP for 14 days. We grew immortalized human tubule cells in a DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% FBS.

Immortalized Human Podocyte Culture Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human conditionally immortalized podocytes (AB8/23), primarily cloned from human glomerular cultures, were characterized and generously provided by Dr. Moin A. Saleem (University of Bristol, Bristol, UK). Human podocytes were maintained in RPMI 1640 (WelGENE Inc., Daegu, South Korea) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS), Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium-Pyruvate Supplement (ITSP; WelGENE Inc.), and antibiotics. Fresh media was supplied once every 2 days.
To stimulate human podocyte proliferation, cells were cultivated at 33℃ (permissive conditions) in a culture medium supplemented with human recombinant ITSP to induce expression of temperature-sensitive large T antigens. To induce differentiation, podocytes were maintained at 37℃ (non-permissive conditions) for at least 2 weeks, and for subcultures, 0.05% trypsin was used to detach cells from the culture dishes.18 (link)

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.
