Handling procedures

Initial handling guidelines

Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.

1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water bath for approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method. Based on cell count, seed cells in an appropriate cell culture flask at a density of 4x105 cells/mL. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Cultures should be monitored daily.
5. THP-1 cells recover slowly from cryopreservation and therefore may not be ready for subculture for a number of days. Cells should be left as much as possible over this time and only subcultured when the cell density reaches 8x105 cells/mL.Small amounts of fresh media can be added until cell number/viability improves.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • Cells should be seeded at 2x105 - 3x105 cells/mL and subcultured when they have reached 8x105 cells/mL.
  • It is not recommended to allow the cell density to exceed 1x106 cells/mL.
Culture medium

RPMI + 10% FBS + 0.05 mM beta-mercaptoethanol

Cryopreservation medium

Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Supplementary information

ATG14L also known as BARKOR is an essential protein involved in the formation of autophagosomes organelles which sequester cytoplasmic components for degradation. This protein is approximately 55 kDa in mass. ATG14L is expressed in a variety of tissues including high expression in the brain heart and kidney. It plays an important role in mediating the recruitment of the PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) complex to the isolation membrane a step necessary in autophagy initiation.
Biological function summary

ATG14L coordinates with other proteins as part of the PI3K complex performing a central function in the regulation of autophagy the cellular degradation process critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. This complex includes VPS34 VPS15 and Beclin 1 which work together to facilitate the nucleation of the autophagosome membrane. Autophagy driven by ATG14L is important for cellular responses to nutrient deprivation and stress.

Pathways

ATG14L is important for two central pathways: the regulation of autophagy and the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways. ATG14L directly affects the activity of mTORC1 an important regulator of cell growth and metabolism integrating signals from nutrients and growth factors. It interacts with other autophagy-related proteins such as Beclin 1 to modulate these pathways connecting intracellular energy status with metabolic processes.

ATG14L has a significant connection to neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Altered autophagy with ATG14L malfunction contributes to the progression of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease where abnormal protein aggregates are not efficiently degraded. In the context of cancer dysregulation of ATG14L-related autophagy pathways can either promote or inhibit tumor growth making it an important therapeutic target. It shares complex interactions with Beclin 1 in these disorders further emphasizing its importance in disease mechanisms.
