TLR6 Stable Cell Line

Description（描述）

TLR6 stable cell line is a stably transfected cell line which expresses full-length human Toll-like receptor 6 (TLR6) with an N-terminal HA tag. TLR6 expression has been validated by Western blotting (Fig. 1) and flow cytometry (Fig. 2).

Complete Growth Medium（完全培养基）

DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose + 10% FBS + 4 mM L-glutamine + 1 mM sodium pyruvate + 100 units/ml penicillin + 100 ug/ml streptomycin + 10 ug/ml blasticidin.
Note: The selection agent for the TLR6 stable line is blasticidin.

Application（应用）

The TLR6 stable cell line can be used for TLR6 flow cytometric calibration and detection control.

Product Handling Protocol（产品处理协议）

Note: Please read the entire data sheet before thawing. It is recommended that users follow good tissue culture practice. The stable cells are sterile and all work should be performed under sterile conditions.
1. Prepare a sterile 15-ml tube with 9 ml fresh medium without selection agents pre-warmed at 37oC.
2. Thaw the TLR6 stable cell line vial quickly in a 37oC water bath, keeping the cap portion out of the water to avoid any possible contamination.
3. Upon thawing, take the vial out of the water and clean it with 70% ethanol to decontaminate.
4. Transfer contents to the 15-ml tube (Step 1) and mix with medium by gentle inversion of tube.
5. Centrifuge at 1,000 RPM for 5 minutes.
6. Remove supernatant and resuspend pellet in 10 ml of fresh medium without selection agents.
Note: It is important to grow the stable cells at this stage without any selection agents.
7. Transfer the TLR6 stable line into a 25-cm2 tissue culture flask and incubate at 37oC in a 95% air-5% CO2 mixture.
8. After cells settle down (in 1-3 days), remove the medium and replace with fresh complete growth medium containing selection agents.
9. At 70-80% confluency, detach the cells by trypsinization and split into new flasks with fresh complete growth medium.
10. Freeze the TLR6 stable line at 3~4 x 10^6 cells/ml per cryogenic vial. For optimal viability after freezing, freeze cells when they have reached log phase growth (95-98% confluency). Detach by trypsinization at 37oC for 5 min, and harvest by mixing with 3 volumes of fresh medium followed by centrifugation (Step 5). Resuspend the pellet in freeze media (FBS with 10% DMSO). Add suspension to cryogenic vials in 1 ml aliquots. Place cryogenic vials, in a tissue culture approved cryogenic vial container, in -80oC freezer for 24-48 hours. After 24-48 hours, move the vials into liquid nitrogen storage.

Safety Considerations（安全注意事项）

Assume all cultures are hazardous since they may harbor latent viruses or other organisms that are uncharacterized. The following safety precautions should be observed.
• Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.
• No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.
• Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.
• Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with cells.
• All waste should be considered hazardous.
• Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach

Figure 2. Flow analysis of TLR6 expression in the TLR6 stable cell line. Cell surface expression of TLR6 was analyzed by flow cytometry using a PE-conjugated TLR6 antibody (IMG-304D) and compared with the Vector control stable cell line (IML-200). IMGENEX’s mouse IgG1 isotype control (20106) and Cell Surface TLR Staining Flow Kit (10099K) were used for this test. *Note: An endogenous level of TLR6 is present in HEK 293 cells.
