Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To investigate the biological functions of RCAS1, a doxycycline (Dox)-induced RCAS1 overexpression model was established in murine fibroblast L cells (L/ind RCAS1) as described in a previous report (27 (link)). The present study used the human uterine cervical adenocarcinoma cell line SiSo and L/ind RCAS1 cells. These cells were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (Biowest), 100 nM non-essential amino acids (Nacalai Tesque, Inc.) and 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Nacalai Tesque, Inc.) at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. To induce exogenous RCAS1 expression, doxycycline (Dox; FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation) was used. Dox was dissolved in dH2O at 1 mg/ml concentration and L/ind RCAS1 cells were treated with 0.5 µg/ml Dox for the indicated times.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Screening and mechanistic studies were performed on myocytes differentiated from the iPS cells generated as mentioned above. iPS cells were cultured and maintained as a feeder‐free culture on iMatrix‐511 (892012; Nippi, Tokyo, Japan) in StemFit medium (AK02N; Ajinomoto, Tokyo, Japan) as previously described 14. Differentiation of MM iPS cells into myocytes was performed by the forced expression of MyoD1 under the control of doxycycline (D5897; Wako, Osaka, Japan) as previously described 12, 15. Briefly, on day 0, cells were plated on Matrigel‐coated CellCarrier‐96 or CellCarrier‐384 Ultra microplates (6057300; PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA) with Rock inhibitor (251‐00514; Wako); the next day, medium was switched to Primate ES Cell Medium. On day 2, doxycycline was added to the same medium, and the latter was switched to Minimum Essential Medium Eagle, Alpha Modification (α‐MEM) (21444‐05; Nakalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) containing 5% knockout serum replacement (10828028; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) on day 3. The medium was changed every other day until day 8.

LNCaP cells were transfected with pTet-Off Advanced vector (Clontech). A stable transformant was isolated by 800 μg/ml G418 (Wako), and tested for induction according to the manufacturer’s protocol. LNCaP tet-off cells were maintained in RPMI1640 medium with 10% FCS containing 400 μg/ml G418 and 1 μg/ml doxycycline (Clontech). LNCaP tet-off cells were transfected with pTRE2hyg-FLAG-AIbZIP, selected using 1 mg/ml hygromycin B (Wako), and maintained in RPMI 1640 medium with 10% FCS containing 400 μg/ml G418, 500 μg/ml hygromycin B and 1 μg/ml doxycycline.

Every time a new batch of EBRTcPTbx6 cells was thawed, 1.5 μg/mL of puromycin was added for one week before propagation. EBRTcPTbx6 cells were maintained with Glasgow minimum essential medium (GMEM, Sigma–Aldrich), 10% FBS (MP Biomedicals), 0.1 mM NEAA (Wako), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Sigma–Aldrich), 0.1 mM 2-mercaptoethanol (Sigma–Aldrich), 10 ng/mL doxycycline (Wako), 100 U/mL penicillin (Meiji Seika Pharma) and 100 μg/mL streptomycin (Meiji Seika Pharma), supplemented with 1000 U/mL mouse LIF (ORF genetics), 3 μM CHIR-99021 (FOCUS Biomolecules), and 0.4 μM PD-0325901 (Adooq Bio Science). 1 × 105 EBRTcPTbx6 cells were inoculated to a 60 mm cell culture dish (TrueLine, Nippon Genetics) that had been plated with MMC (Wako)-treated SNL 76/7 feeder cells (obtained from Riken Bioresource Center) on the previous day. The cells were passaged every other day, and subjected to isolation from feeder cells using differential adhesive properties to a gelatin-coated cell culture dish before performing differentiation assays as described below.

Feeder-free iPSC-derived Motor Neurons

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Motor neurons were generated from feeder-free iPSCs by transient expression of NIL factors using the tet-on inducible expression system. At the passage, dissociated iPSCs were seeded onto poly-L-ornithine (Merck) and Matrigel (Corning, Steuben County, NY, USA) coated culture plates and cultured in neuronal medium with the following composition: Neurobasal Plus medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing 2% B27 Plus supplement (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 1% Culture One supplement (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 1% Glutamax (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 200 μM L-ascorbic acid (Sigma), 200 μM dbcAMP (Nacalai), 20 ng/mL BDNF (Alomone labs), 20 ng/mL GDNF (Alomone labs), and 20 ng/mL NT-3 (Alomone labs). 20 μM Y27632, 1 μg/mL doxycycline (Wako), 1 μM retinoic acid (Merck), 1 μM purmorphamine (Merck) and 0.5 μg/mL iMatrix-511 silk were added only for 5 days. Half of the medium was changed every 3 or 4 days after day 5.

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.
