Abstract: Shrinky丁克挂滴:一个简单的方法,形式和文化胚体

胚体(EB)的胚胎干细胞的聚集。创建这些聚集的最常用的方法是悬滴法,孔板移液到任意数量的细胞费力的方法。被迫彼此接近的干细胞之间的相互作用,促进了EBS的一代。因为在每个井的媒体每天要手动交换,这种做法是手动密集。

此外,因为环境参数,包括细胞,细胞可溶性因子的相互作用,pH值,和氧气供应的EB大小的功能,从传统的挂滴获得的细胞群可以相差很大,即使在相同条件下培养。的确,最近的研究表明,初步形成总额的细胞数量有重大影响干细胞分化。我们已经开发出一种简单,快速,可伸缩的文化的方法加载到预先定义的数字,微型井细胞胚体的发展和维护。最后,这些细胞是方便作进一步的分析和实验。这种方法适合任何实验室,无需专用设备。我们通过这种方法使用红色荧光的小鼠细胞株(129S6B6 F1),胚体。

Protocol: Shrinky丁克挂滴:一个简单的方法,形式和文化胚体

1。制作Shrinky,丁克模具

  1. shrinky,丁克表使用一个很好的定义打印机打印所需的图案。
  2. 烘烤shrinky丁克表在163℃,约10分钟,或直至完全萎缩,并取得了一个常规的形状。
  3. shrinky,丁克模具冷却下来后,把它浸入异丙醇洗澡,直到完整的表面几乎覆盖。
  4. 小心,喷在模具丙酮和摇晃容器几次。添加更多的异丙醇洗出丙酮过剩,重复此步骤几次,直到shrinky模看上去干净。
  5. 模具在蒸馏水中浸泡10分钟洗掉任何剩余的有机溶剂。
  6. 空气清新shrinky模具。再加热5分钟左右,在163 ° C的紧凑型油墨,任何剩余的溶剂蒸发。

2。使PDMS的微孔

  1. 准备10:1的PDMS /固化剂混合,搅拌几分钟大力。
  2. 在一个小培养皿放置shrinky丁克模具。倒入PDMS的混合物,直到它到达了在模具表面约1 / 2厘米。
  3. 将盘在真空状态下铃PDMS的混合物,以消除所有气泡。
  4. 放置在烤箱菜在70 ° C,隔夜。
  5. 切断从固体硅橡胶模具和施加压力,只是绑定到载玻片。
  6. 第一微孔片丢弃,因为它有油墨残留物之间的PDMS结垢。
  7. 重复此过程,以便培育出第二代的芯片,它是墨自由和有一个更明确的形状。
  8. 清洁微孔芯片采用70%乙醇溶液。紫外线光源下放置10分钟消毒。

3。补漏细胞在微孔

  1. 计数细胞和培养基稀释到所需浓度(取决于你想多少井的初始细胞)。例如,要获得约10-15%细胞(平均= 11,SD = 5.4,负荷率= 93%),我们用浓度为8 × 10 4细胞/ ml。对于一个17 × 10 4细胞/ ml的浓度,可以可靠地获得25和35之间,每孔细胞(平均= 27.17857 SD = 7.7,负荷率= 100%) 。
  2. 小心地将50 mL离心管中包含一个固化硅橡胶基地的微孔芯片。
  3. 新增约2JDP毫升的细胞液。
  4. 离心5分钟,在760 RPM和4 ° C
  5. 吸取多余的解决方案,并认真洗手,用PBS 1X解决方案的微孔。
  6. 放置在一个小petry菜的微孔,同时利用离心管芯片小心。
  7. 使用1 × PBS液洗细胞多余的。
  8. 微孔芯片置于倒置显微镜下每孔的细胞数,以验证打算。
  9. 孵育微孔包含在标准条件下的细胞。

4。细胞孵育

  1. 在实验室按照正常的EB协议。
  2. 慢慢地改变从会议厅一侧的介质,避免干扰细胞中的微孔。

Discussion: Shrinky丁克挂滴:一个简单的方法,形式和文化胚体

我们已经开发出一种简单,快速,可伸缩的培养方法加载到微井(Shrinky - Dinks成型)预先定义的细胞数目和他们保持胚体的发​​展。最后,这些细胞是方便作进一步的分析和实验。这种方法适合任何实验室,不需要专用的设备,因为我们排除光刻需要。我们可以改变的微孔的大小以及细胞/井的浓度改变胚体的数量和大小。

This is a really great method! What tool do you use for the current discharge, and where can it be purchased?
