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.

Supplementary information

CXX1 also known as Cytoskeletal X-linked Protein 1 functions as a structural component involved in maintaining cell integrity and stability. This protein weighs approximately 45 kilodaltons. Scientists predominantly observe CXX1 expression in epithelial tissues but it is also present in other cell types. The presence of CXX1 in various tissues suggests it might have diverse roles related to cellular structure and dynamics.
Biological function summary

CXX1 contributes to cellular shape and motility by connecting the actin cytoskeleton to specific membrane proteins facilitating intracellular signaling and transport. It often functions as part of large protein complexes that include actin-binding proteins. These interactions allow CXX1 to contribute to the dynamic rearrangement of cytoskeletal elements necessary for processes like cell migration and adhesion.

Pathways

CXX1 plays a role in the regulation of the cytoskeletal remodeling pathway and the Rho-GTPase signaling pathway. These pathways are essential for cell movement and shape adjustments. In the cytoskeletal remodeling pathway CXX1 interacts with proteins like RhoA which modulate actin dynamics. Through its involvement in these pathways CXX1 can impact cellular responses to external stimuli.

Defects or dysregulation of CXX1 associate with certain types of cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Altered expression or mutation of CXX1 can contribute to tumor cell metastasis as improper cytoskeleton function may enhance cellular migration and invasion capacity. Additionally connections between CXX1 and Alzheimer's Disease arise via its interaction with Tau protein another key player in maintaining neuronal cell structure. This suggests that CXX1 might influence disease progression through its cytoskeletal roles.
