Background of 293T-NFAT-Luc2-GNRHR Cell Line

GNRHR (Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Receptor) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with GNRHR include Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism 7 With Or Without Anosmia and Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism. Among its related pathways are GPCR downstream signalling and Class A/1 (Rhodopsin-like receptors). Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include G protein-coupled receptor activity and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor activity.

Cell Line Generation

293T-NFAT-Luc2-GNRHR Cell Line was generated using a lentiviral vector expressing the GNRHR sequence.

Characterization

Figure1: 293T-NFAT-Luc2-GNRHR cells were seeded into 96-well plates, treated with LH-RH for 16 hours, and then read out using Bright-Glo Detection System.

Cell Resuscitation

  1. Prewarm culture medium (DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 150μg/mL Hygromycin B and 1μg/mL Puromycin.) in a 37°C water bath.
  2. Thaw the frozen vial in a 37°C water bath for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Transfer the vial into biosafety cabinet, and wipe the surface with 70% ethanol.
  4. Unscrew the top of the vial and transfer the cell suspension gently into a sterile centrifuge tube containing 9.0mL complete culture medium.
  5. Spin at ~ 125 × g for 5-7 minutes at room temperature, and discard the supernatant without disturbing the pellet.
  6. Resuspend cell pellet with the appropriate volume of complete medium and transfer the cell suspension into a T25 culture flask.
  7. Incubate the flask at 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator.
  8. Split saturated culture 1 : 10 every 3 days; seed out at about 1 × 105 cells/mL

Cell Freezing

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