HeLa cells were slowly defrosted, added to 5 mL of Dulbecco’s minimal essential medium (DMEM; Sigma–Aldrich, USA) in a falcon tube, and centrifuged for 4 min at 1200 rpm. The pellet was transferred into a mixture of DMEM solution supplemented with 10% of fetal bovine serum (GenClone, USA) and 1% of penicillin G/streptomycin (10,000 IU/mL to 10,000 μg/mL) (ThermoFisher Scientific, USA). About 5 mL of the mixture was seeded into a T-flask 25 cm2 for 24 h at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 incubator. The old medium was aspirated, and the cells were washed three times with 2 mL of PBS to remove debris [13 , 14 (link)]. About 1 mL of 0.25% trypsin–EDTA solution (Sigma–Aldrich, USA) was added to detach HeLa cells from the flask for cell calculation. About 1 × 105 HeLa cells/mL were seeded onto a 24-well tissue-culture plate in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h at 37 °C until a monolayer of cells reached (~ 90% confluence) a density of 2 × 105 cells/well [13 , 14 (link)]. The growth medium was diskharged, and the cells were washed twice with PBS to be used in Ld45E adhesion assays.

Propagation and Infection Kinetics of Nipah and Cedar Viruses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Bangladeshi strain of the Nipah virus (NIV) was obtained from the Viral Special Pathogens Branch of the CDC, was originally isolated from a fatal human infection in Bangladesh in 2004, and was passaged in Vero E6 cells a total of three times [16 (link)]. Cedar virus (CedPV) was obtained from CSIRO (Geelong, Australia) and was isolated from bat urine inoculated onto primary bat kidney cells, followed by passaging on Vero E6 cells (ATCC) [7 (link)]. Both viruses were propagated on Vero E6 cells at RML in Dulbecco’s minimal essential medium (DMEM) (Sigma) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 50 IU/mL penicillin, and 50 µg/mL streptomycin (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA).
BHK-21 cells (CCL-10, ATCC, Manassas VA, USA) were propagated in 24-well tissue culture plates and inoculated with CedPV or NiV (or mock) with a MOI of 1.0 or 0.1 for 1 h, washed twice in DMEM, and incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO2 for the indicated amount of time.
Human lung blood microvascular endothelial cells (LBMVEC) (CC-2527, Lonza, Walkersville MD, USA) were maintained in an EGM-2 medium (Lonza). The cells were seeded in 24-well plates one day prior to inoculation with CedPV or NiV with a MOI of 0.1. At the indicated time points, supernatants were collected for virus quantitation and the cells were lysed in buffer RLT (Qiagen) to quantitate viral or cellular RNA.

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.
