Background of 293T-human-CLDN9-Cell-Line

CLDN9, also known as claudin 9, belongs to the claudin family. CLDN9 is expressed in the inner ear, olfactory epithelium, and anterior pituitary gland and is involved in hearing. CLDN9 creates charge specific channels in the paracellular space, plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity, is required to preserve sensory cells in the hearing organ because CLDN9-defective tight junctions fail to shield the basolateral side of hair cells from the K+-rich endolymph. Its ion barrier function is essential in the cochlea, but appears to be dispensable in other organs. Is one of the entry cofactors for hepatitis C virus; it enables HCV entry into target cells just as efficiently as CLDN1.

Cell Resuscitation

Prewarm culture medium (DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1μg/ml puromycin)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 the saturated culture at a ratio of 1:4~1:5 every 2~3 days; seed out at about 1-3 × 10⁵ cells/mL.

Cell Freezing

Prepare the freezing medium (70% DMEM + 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
