Background of CHOK1-CRE-GFP-Cell-Line

Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) plays a key role in signal transduction pathways as a second messenger. cAMP can regulate the transcription of various target genes, mainly through protein kinase A (PKA) and its downstream effectors such as cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB). In addition, PKA can phosphorylate many kinases such as Raf, GSK4 and FAK. Aberrant cAMP-PKA signaling is involved in various types of diseases, such as prefrontal cortex disorders, chronic inflammatory diseases, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and human tumors. Especially, cAMP signaling may have both tumor-suppressive and tumor-promoting roles depending on the tumor types and context. cAMP-PKA signaling can regulate cancer cell growth, migration, invasion and metabolism.

Cell Line Generation

CHOK1 CRE GFP reporter cell line was generated using a lentiviral vector expressing the GFP sequence under the promoter of the cAMP response element.

Characterization

Cell Resuscitation

Prewarm culture medium (RPMI1640 + 10% FBS + 750µg/mL Hygromycin B) in a 37°C water bath.
Thaw the frozen vial in a 37°C water bath for 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the vial into biosafety cabinet, and wipe the surface with 70% ethanol.
Unscrew the top of the vial and transfer the cell suspension gently into a sterile centrifuge tube containing 9.0mL complete culture medium.
Spin at ~ 125 × g for 5-7 minutes at room temperature, and discard the supernatant without disturbing the pellet.
Resuspend cell pellet with the appropriate volume of complete medium and transfer the cell suspension into a T25 culture flask.
Incubate the flask at 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator.
Split saturated culture 1:4-1:8 every 2-3 days; seed out at about 1-2 × 10⁵ cells/mL.

Cell Freezing

Prepare the freezing medium (70% RPMI-1640 + 20% FBS + 10% DMSO) fresh immediately before use.
Keep the freezing medium on ice and label cryovials.
Transfer cells to a sterile, conical centrifuge tube, and count the cells.
Centrifuge the cells at 250×g for 5 minutes at room temperature and carefully aspirate off the medium.
Resuspend the cells at a density of at least 3×10⁶ cells/mL in chilled freezing medium.
Aliquot 1 mL of the cell suspension into each cryovial.
Freeze cells in the CoolCell freezing container overnight in a -80°C freezer.
Transfer vials to liquid nitrogen for long-term storage
