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.
  • Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x104 cells/cm2.
Culture medium

F-12K + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

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

Supplementary information

DDX60 also known as DExD/H-box helicase 60 is a protein involved in antiviral responses. It has a molecular mass of approximately 180 kDa. DDX60 acts as an ATP-dependent RNA helicase unwinding RNA structures during viral replication processes. This protein is expressed mainly in immune-related tissues like the spleen and peripheral blood leukocytes indicating its role in immunity. Alternate names include DDX60L which denotes a related protein with similar functions.
Biological function summary

DDX60 plays an essential role in the detection of viral RNA acting as a sensor in the innate immune system. It forms part of a complex involved in recognizing and responding to viral infections. DDX60 interacts with other proteins like RIG-I a pivotal component in initiating antiviral signaling cascades. Through these interactions DDX60 facilitates the production of interferons which are key elements in mounting an effective immune response against viruses.

Pathways

DDX60 functions within the RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway an important antiviral defense mechanism. This pathway includes proteins such as MAVS and IRF3 which work together to stimulate the expression of cytokines following pathogen recognition. DDX60's activity enhances the sensitivity of this pathway boosting the host's capacity to control viral replication and spread contributing to the overall immune response.

Variations in DDX60 expression have been linked to autoimmune conditions like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and chronic viral infections such as hepatitis C. Abnormal regulation of this protein can lead to inappropriate immune activation or impaired response to infections. DDX60's association with RIG-I suggests its involvement in these diseases as both proteins are important in the body's effort to manage viral threats and the maintenance of immune homeostasis.
