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

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Inversin also known as INV or INVS is a protein that plays a mechanical role in cellular signaling particularly in the process of cilia assembly and maintenance. It has a molecular weight of approximately 124 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues with notable abundance in the kidneys and other ciliated cells. Inversin is important for the function and structure of cells contributing to their ability to sense and respond to environmental cues.
Biological function summary

Inversin acts as an essential modulator of cell-cycle regulation and planar cell polarity. This protein is part of a complex that regulates the Wnt signaling pathway acting as a switch between canonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways. Inversin's role ensures the proper orientation and division of cells which is necessary for correct tissue development and function. In this way Inversin influences cell and organ structure and development.

Pathways

Inversin functions in the Wnt signaling pathway and the Hedgehog signaling pathway. In the Wnt pathway it interacts with Dishevelled proteins modulating pathways to ensure proper signaling for development. In the Hedgehog pathway Inversin plays a role in coordinating signal transduction necessary for embryonic patterning and development. Proper engagement in these pathways ensures the correct relay of signals that influence numerous biological processes.

Inversin has been linked to nephronophthisis and situs inversus. Nephronophthisis a kidney disorder correlates with mutations in the inversin gene which disrupt cilia function. This dysfunction leads to kidney fibrosis and cyst formation. In addition Inversin's connection to situs inversus involves a misalignment in the left-right organization of internal organs highlighting its role in ensuring normal body asymmetry. In these diseases aberrations in proteins such as cystin and inversin contribute to improper cellular and organ function.
