The rat HERS cell line used in this study was established in our previous study 35 (link). HERS-H1 cells were cultured in epithelial medium (ScienCell, USA) supplemented with 1% penicillin/streptomycin. To collect the culture medium for isolation of ELVs, HERS-H1 cells were cultured to 80% confluence, washed twice with PBS, then switched to medium with exosome-depleted FBS (2%, SBI, USA) and cultured for another 2 d. Dental papilla cells (DPCs) were isolated from unerupted first molars of 1 to 3-d-old postnatal SD rats as previously described 37 . To inhibit the activity of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, dickkopf WNT signaling pathway inhibitor 1 (DKK1) (100 ng/mL, R&D systems, USA) was used for 2 h to induce the phosphorylated degradation of β-catenin. Cells were grown in a humidified atmosphere at 37 °C with 5 % CO2, and the medium was changed every 3 d.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
transwell migration assay was used to measure the effect of IONP-Exos and BMSC-Exos on NIH3T3 fibroblast migration and was performed according to the manufacturer's recommendation. Briefly, a total of 5 ​× ​104 NIH3T3 fibroblasts were seeded in the upper chamber of the transwell (Corning, NY, USA) with 100 ​μL of serum-free medium. In the lower chamber, 600 ​μL of culture medium containing 10% exosome-depleted FBS (SBI, USA) and IONP-Exos (100 ​μg/mL), BMSC-Exos (100 ​μg/mL), or the equivalent volume of exosome diluent (PBS) were added and incubated for 24 ​h. Fibroblasts on the permeable membrane of the upper chamber were gently wiped off using a cotton swab, and fibroblasts that migrated to the bottom of the filter membrane were fixed with anhydrous ethanol and stained with crystal violet (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Five fields of the underside of the membrane were randomly selected, and the migrated cells were counted under a microscope.

Synovial MSCs were seeded at 1.5 × 106 cells per 15-cm2 plate and incubated in a complete culture medium for 24 h. The cells were then washed twice with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and cultured with alpha MEM containing 5% exosome-depleted FBS (SBI, Palo Alto, CA, USA) or serum-free alpha MEM for 48 h. The cell suspension was centrifuged at 2000×g and 4 °C for 10 min to remove detached cells. The supernatant was collected and passed through a 0.22-μm filter (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) to remove cellular debris. The filtered supernatant was then transferred to the upper compartment of a 10-kDa Amicon Ultra Filter Unit (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and centrifuged at 4000×g and 4 °C for 30 min. The liquid was washed with PBS and subjected to ultrafiltration. The MSC-EVs were collected from the upper compartment and stored in a PROKEEP low-protein binding tube (WATSON, Tokyo, Japan) at − 80 °C. Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) was performed on the EVs using NanoSight LM10 and NanoSight NTA v3.0 (Malvern Panalytical, Malvern, UK). Western blotting was used to identify the EV-associated markers CD9 and CD63. MSC-EVs were negatively stained with 2% (w/v) uranyl acetate, and their morphology was observed under a transmission electron microscope (TEM; JEM-1400 Flash; JEOL Ltd., Tokyo, Japan).

PMNs were isolated from human peripheral blood using the EasySep™ direct human neutrophil isolation kit (Stemcell, Vancouver, Canada). PMNs were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 medium (Gibco, Waltham, USA) supplemented with 10% exosome-free fetal bovine serum (FBS) (SBI, California, USA) and 1% penicillin and streptomycin (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) in a 37 °C incubator with a 5% CO2 air atmosphere. The lipopolysaccharide (LPS; Sigma, Saint Louis, USA) concentration of the activated PMNs (aPMNs) was 1 µg/mL for 30 min.

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.
