Fibroblast cell lines from a healthy male (GM05659, RRID: CVCL_7434) and a male patient with a homozygous mutation in NPC1I1061T (GM18453, RRID: CVCL_DA78, from the NIGMS repository) were purchased from the Coriell Institute. Fibroblasts were grown in Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) with Earle’s salts and non-essential amino acids (SIGMA, Cat # M5650) supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine (GIBCO, Cat # 25030–081), 15% non-inactivated fetal bovine serum (GIBCO, Cat # 26140–079) and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin (GIBCO, Cat # 15140–122), passaged twice a week, and incubated in 5% CO2 at 37°C.
HeLa cells stably expressing ABCA1-GFP were provided by Dr. Alan Remaley, NHLBI, Bethesda, MD. HeLa cells were grown in DMEM (GIBCO, Cat # 11995–065) supplemented with 10% non-inactivated fetal bovine serum and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin, passaged twice a week, and incubated in 5% CO2 at 37°C. Expression of ABCA1-GFP HeLa cells was induced by adding 150 μg/ml geneticin (GIBCO, Cat # 10131–035) and 200 μg/ml Hygromycin (Invitrogen, Cat # 10687010).

Generating Induced Neural Stem Cells from Fibroblasts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Induced neural stem cells (iNSCs) were generated from normal donor skin fibroblasts (GM05659; Coriell Institute for Medical Research, Camden, NJ, USA) and NPC patient-derived human Dermal Fibroblasts (hDFs, GM03123 (NPC1P237S/I1061T), GM18453 (NPC1I1061T/I1061T); Coriell Institute for Medical Research). Viral production and transduction were performed as described previously. Briefly, retroviral pMX-SOX2 and pMX-HMGA2 were transfected into 293 FT cells along with VSV-G and gag/pol plasmids using Fugene 6 transfection reagent (Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA). The viral supernatants were collected at 48- and 72-h post-transfection and used to infect hDFs with 5 μg/mL polybrene (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). For neural stem cell induction, the medium was changed to NSC maintenance medium (ReNcell NSC maintenance media; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) after expansion of the infected cells. NSC-like colonies were picked and cultured in neurosphere culture conditions. To generate a homogenous population of iNSCs, cells were maintained as neurospheres and cultured as attached cells on PLO/FN-coated dishes, repeatedly. NPC-iNSC lines from NPC1 mutant human fibroblast were generated up to 10 independent clones.

Generation of iNSCs from Patient Fibroblasts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The iNSCs were established from human NPC patient-derived skin fibroblasts (GM03123, GM18453; Coriell Institute for Medical Research, USA) and were characterized in a previous study [18 (link)]. The pMX-SOX2 and pMX-HMGA2 retroviral constructs were transfected into 293 FT cells (Invitrogen, USA) to produce high viral titers using FuGENE 6 Transfection Reagents (Roche Diagnostics, USA) and the viral supernatants were collected and used to infect NPC patient-derived fibroblasts. The transduced fibroblasts were cultured in NSC maintenance medium (ReNcell NSC Maintenance Media; Millipore, USA) with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF; Sigma, USA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF; Sigma) added to induce neural stem cells. NSC-like colonies were picked and cultured under neurosphere conditions as attached cells on poly-L-ornithine- and fibronectin-coated dishes repeatedly to generate homogenous iNSCs. As reported previously, the iNSCs showed an NSC-like morphology and expressed NSC-specific markers such as PAX6 and NESTIN. Furthermore, the iNSCs demonstrated differentiation into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes, indicating that the generated iNSCs could function as NSCs.

Fibroblast cell lines derived from an apparently healthy male (GM05659) and a male patient with the NPC1I1061T mutation (GM18453) were purchased from Coriell Institute. Additional fibroblast cell lines derived from patients, NPC1I1061T, I1061T and NPC1I1061T, P1007A, were generously provided by Dr. Forbes D. Porter (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD). Fibroblasts were cultured in MEM supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine, 15% non–heat-inactivated FBS, and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin. Cells were passaged twice weekly and incubated in 5% CO2 at 37°C. PSEN+/+ (WT) and PSEN1/PSEN2 double-knockout (PSEN−/−) MEFs were a generous gift from Drs. David Kang, Angels Almenar, and Lawrence S.B. Goldstein (University of California, San Diego, San Diego, CA). WT, NPC1−/−, and SCAP−/− CHO cells were kindly provided by Daniel Ory (Washington University, St. Louis, MO). MEFs, CHO cells, and tsA201 cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin. Hippocampal Neurons were isolated from rats at gestation day 18. Neurons were cultured in Neurobasal (21103-049; Gibco) supplemented with B27 (17504-044; Gibco), Glutamax (35050-061; Gibco), 5% FBS, and 0.2% penicillin/streptomycin. On DIV 7, cytosine-D-arabinofuranoside (251010; Millipore) at 1:1,000 was added to neuronal cultures to inhibit astrocyte growth.

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.
