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.

Notes

Although we aim to provide customers with a homozygous clone, feasibility will be dependent on the biology of the protein. Should only heterozygous edits be achieved, you will be notified of the outcome and be asked to confirm whether the cell line is acceptable. All clones will be accompanied with DNA sequencing data, and the mutation description.

Recommended control: Human wild-type PC-3 cell line (Human wild-type PC-3 cell line ab290718). Please note a wild-type cell line is not automatically included with a knockout cell line order, if required please add recommended wild-type cell line at no additional cost using the code WILDTYPE-TMTK1.

We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

Activity summary

B7-H6 also called NCR3LG1 is a cell surface protein functioning as a ligand for the NKp30 receptor. The protein weighs approximately 55 kDa and is mainly expressed on tumor cells and certain activated immune cells. Scientists often use tools like B7-H6 flow assays to study its expression patterns in various cell types. In the immune landscape B7-H6 interacts with NKp30 to stimulate natural killer (NK) cell activation and mediate immune responses.

Biological function summary

B7-H6 acts as an important component in natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The protein is not part of a larger complex but operates independently to engage NK cell activity. It serves as a signal for NK cells to identify and destroy tumor cells. Additionally B7-H6 expression on tumor cells often correlates with immune cell recognition thereby playing an important role in tumor immunity.

Pathways

B7-H6 participates in the immune response pathways connected to natural killer cell activation. Specifically it interacts with proteins like NKp30 as part of the natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor signaling process. These interactions facilitate the destruction of target cells enhancing the body's innate immune response by activating downstream pathways vital to immune defense.

Associated diseases and disorders

B7-H6 has associations with cancer and infectious diseases. In several cancer types including mesothelioma the protein's elevated expression can serve as an indicator of tumorigenesis. B7-H6 alongside its partner NKp30 potentially plays a role in immune escape mechanisms employed by tumors. Understanding this interaction offers insights into novel therapeutic strategies for tackling such conditions.
