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.

The protein PDGFC also called Platelet-Derived Growth Factor C functions mechanically as a growth factor involved in cell proliferation migration and survival. It belongs to the PDGF family and exhibits a molecular mass of approximately 38 kDa. PDGFC expresses in a variety of tissues such as the heart kidney and skeletal muscle. Unlike other PDGF family members PDGFC has a unique hinge region that requires proteolytic activation to reveal its growth factor activity.
Biological function summary

PDGFC supports angiogenesis and tissue remodeling which are essential for normal developmental processes and wound healing. It often forms part of a PDGF receptor-ligand complex by binding to the alpha and beta PDGF receptors. Upon binding PDGFC activates signaling pathways that result in cellular responses significant in tissues undergoing repair or in presence of injury.

Pathways

PDGFC plays a part in the MAPK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways which regulate several cellular mechanisms. As it interacts with PDGF receptors PDGFC can collaborate with other proteins such as PDGFA and PDGFB both of which are significant for initiating similar pathways. These connections allow PDGFC to influence processes like cell cycle progression and apoptosis key elements in maintaining cellular homeostasis.

Alterations in PDGFC expression or signaling link to certain conditions such as cancer and fibrotic diseases. Overexpression of PDGFC relates to tumor growth and metastasis partially due to its role in angiogenesis where it can interact with proteins like VEGF. In fibrosis PDGFC acts by promoting excessive extracellular matrix production further involving it with proteins like transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) which contribute to tissue scarring and organ dysfunction.
