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 seed all remaining cells into a T25.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Check the culture one day after revival and continue to check until 80% confluent. Media change can be given if needed.
5. Once confluent passage into an appropriate flask at a density of 2x104 cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules. Cultures should be monitored daily.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended.
  • Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
Culture medium
DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS
Cryopreservation medium
Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Activity summary

CD276 also known as B7-H3 is an immunoregulatory protein with a mass of approximately 57 kDa although post-translational modifications can increase its observed size. It is a member of the B7 family which is part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD276 is widely expressed in various tissues including placenta liver heart and also in many tumor cells. It is observed in lesser amounts in normal tissues making it an interesting target for cancer research. Various assays like HEK293 and HEK293T cell confluency studies often use CD276 to explore its expression under different conditions and seeding densities which are represented in confluency charts.

Biological function summary

CD276 modulates immune responses by acting as a co-inhibitory ligand impacting T-cell proliferation and cytokine synthesis. Not part of a known complex it plays a role in the adaptive immune system by providing negative feedback regulation that can inhibit the immune response. This capability has implications in preventing autoimmunity but may also contribute to tumor immune evasion by reducing effective anti-tumor responses. The B7-H3/CD276 interaction with receptors such as IL receptor family members suggests its diverse immunomodulatory functions.

Pathways

CD276 participates in the T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathways influencing immune checkpoint pathways. It interacts with other immune checkpoint proteins like PD-L1 and CTLA-4 but its exact receptor partner remains unidentified. The presence of CD276 in these pathways highlights its role in controlling T-cell activation and tolerance. By modulating TCR signals and impacting downstream effects CD276 serves as a regulatory point that can balance immune activation and inhibition critical in immune-mediated conditions.

Associated diseases and disorders

CD276 has strong associations with cancer particularly in solid tumors such as prostate and breast cancer. It is often overexpressed in malignant tissues contributing to immune evasion by tumors. Researchers propose it as a potential target for cancer immunotherapy due to this attribute. CD276's link to disorders like asthma has also been suggested where its interaction with proteins involved in inflammatory pathways such as IL response elements can exacerbate the condition. This implicates it as a dual-role protein in both disease progression and potential therapeutic targeting.
