Background of 293T-LRP6-beta-propeller-3-4-MESD-Middle-Cell-Line

This gene encodes a member of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene family. LDL receptors are transmembrane cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of lipoprotein and protein ligands. The protein encoded by this gene functions as a receptor or, with Frizzled, a co-receptor for Wnt and thereby transmits the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling cascade. Through its interaction with the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling cascade this gene plays a role in the regulation of cell differentiation, proliferation, and migration and the development of many cancer types. This protein undergoes gamma-secretase dependent RIP- (regulated intramembrane proteolysis) processing but the precise locations of the cleavage sites have not been determined.

Cell Line Generation

293T-LRP6-beta-propeller-3-4-MESD-Middle cell line was generated using a lentiviral vector expressing the human LRP6 sequence.

Cell Resuscitation

  1. Prewarm culture medium (DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS 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 1:4-1:5 every 2-3 days; seed out at about 1-3 × 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.
