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

Heparanase 1 also known as HPA1 or HPSE is an endo-β-D-glucuronidase enzyme with a molecular mass of approximately 50 kDa. It functions mechanically by cleaving heparan sulfate (HS) chains which are long sugar chains found on the extracellular matrix and cell surfaces. This cleavage activity remodels the matrix and influences cell behavior. Heparanase 1 is mainly expressed in the placenta lymphoid tissues and various tumor cells where it plays a role in matrix degradation and cell migration.

Biological function summary

When heparan sulfate is cleaved by Heparanase 1 it causes the release of HS-bound growth factors and cytokines making them available to cells. This enzymatic activity facilitates cell proliferation and angiogenesis affecting processes important for tissue repair and cancer progression. Heparanase 1 does not require a complex for its function but operates as a monomeric enzyme. Its activity is investigated using assays like heparanase activity assays or ELISA for measuring the enzyme's activity in different biological contexts including mouse models.

Pathways

The activity of Heparanase 1 intersects significantly with the regulation of angiogenesis and cell signaling pathways such as the VEGF and FGF pathways. These pathways are important for new blood vessel formation making them significant in both normal development and cancer. Heparanase 1 interacts with proteins such as VEGF which is important for blood vessel growth and integrins which are involved in cell-matrix interactions and signaling.

Associated diseases and disorders

Heparanase 1 is associated with tumor metastasis and inflammation. Its ability to degrade the extracellular matrix enables cancer cell invasion and metastasis. The enzyme also plays a role in inflammatory diseases where it modulates the immune response. Through these disease pathways it relates to other proteins such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which also participate in matrix remodeling during tumor progression and inflammation.
