Growth and maintenance of HeLa cells in serum-free medium supplemented with hormones.
نویسندگان
چکیده
HeLa cells grow in a nutritionally complete synthetic medium (Ham's F12) supplemented with insulin, transferrin, hydrocortisone (aldosterone), fibroblast growth factor, and epidermal growth factor. This hormone-supplemented medium supports clonal growth, long-term cultivation, and a growth rate equal to that of serum-supplemented medium. The omission of any one of the five components results in less than maximal cell growth.

Abstract Background and purpose: The most common serum used in culture media is fetal bovine serum (FBS). Given that FBS is costly, this study aimed at evaluating the hydatid cyst fluid (HCF) as a substitute for FBS in culture medium of fibroblast cells isolated from rat. Materials and methods: In this experimental study, skin dermal area from inguinal and abdomen of rat were used for fibro...
متن کاملHormone-deprived serum impairs angiogenic properties in human endothelial cells regardless of estrogens.
AIMS In vitro studies on hormone biological activities are commonly performed on cells cultured in nominally hormone-free media consisting of phenol-red-free media supplemented with charcoal-stripped (CS) serum. These media are largely used in almost all cell types, including endothelial cells (ECs). METHODS Cell number and metabolic activity were measured with standard methods. Angiogenesis ...
متن کاملRegulation of growth and differentiation of a rat hepatoma cell line by the synergistic interactions of hormones and collagenous substrata
Serum-free, hormonally defined media have been developed for optimal growth of a rat hepatoma cell line. The cells' hormonal requirements for growth are dramatically altered both qualitatively and quantitatively by whether they were plated onto tissue culture plastic or collagenous substrata. On collagenous substrata, the cells required insulin, glucagon, growth hormone, prolactin, and linoleic...
متن کاملMonocyte isolation using serum dextrose 5% with autologous plasma
Introduction: Mammalian cells culture is an important method for producing recombinant proteins, monoclonal antibody, and hormones application. One of the common methods in the monocyte isolation is using flask adherent cell culture in RPMI-1640 medium. We aimed, in this study, cell culture medium using dextrose 5% with autologous plasma to produce inexpensive medium for isolation of monocytes....
متن کاملMaintenance of horse embryonic stem cells in different conditions
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are originally derived from the ICM of blastocysts and are characterized by their ability to self-renew and their pluripotencies. Only a few reports have been published on ESC isolations and line establishment in animals, even fewer in horses. However, it is still important to isolate equine ESCs for animal biotechnology and therapeutic applications. In the present s...
