C3aR1/NIH 3T3 Stable Cell Line

Cells should be grown at 37^oC with 5% CO₂ using DMEM medium (w/ L-Glutamine, 4.5g/L Glucose and Sodium Pyruvate) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS and 1% Pen/Strep, plus 10 µg/ml of Blasticidin.

 

It is recommended to quickly thaw the frozen cells upon receipt or from liquid nitrogen in a 37^oC water-bath, transfer to a tube containing 10 ml of growth medium without Blasticidin, spin down cells, resuspend cells in pre-warmed growth medium without Blasticidin, transfer resuspended cells to T25 flask and culture in 37^oC-CO₂ incubator.

 

Leave the T25 flask in the incubator for 1~2 days without disturbing or changing the medium until cells completely recover viability and become adherent. Once cells are over 90% adherent, remove growth medium and passage the cells through trypsinization and centrifugation. At first passage, switch to growth medium containing Blasticidin. Cells should be split before they reach complete confluence. Note: NIH 3T3 cells should be split before they reach over 90% confluence; otherwise, they become self-lifted and aggregate irrevisibly. Precoating the cell plates with 0.1% gelatin may prevent NIH 3T3 cells from self-lifting. During cell trypsinization, cells covered enough with trypsin-EDTA solution should be stayed at 37oC for 10 min without agitation.

 

To passage the cells, detach cells from culture vessel with Trypsin/EDTA, add complete growth medium and transfer to a tube, spin down cells, resuspend cells and seed appropriate aliquots of cells suspension into new culture vessels. Subcultivation ration = 1:10 to 1:20 weekly. To achieve satisfactory results, cells should not be passaged over 16 times.
