Western blot : Anti-c-Rel antibody [EPR2559(2)] ab133251 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti GAPDH ab8245 loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 74 kDa in Wild-type HCT 116 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in REL knockout HCT 116 cell line. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5pc Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

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

McCoY5a + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Supplementary information

The c-Rel protein also known as REL is a member of the NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) family of transcription factors. It has a mass of approximately 65 kDa and is expressed in a variety of tissues with high levels seen in immune cells such as T and B lymphocytes. Being a transcription factor c-Rel regulates the expression of genes involved in immune responses cell proliferation and apoptosis. Its activity depends on its ability to translocate to the nucleus where it binds specific DNA sequences to modulate transcription.
Biological function summary

C-Rel functions to regulate immune system processes and is integral in lymphocyte activation. c-Rel functions as part of both homodimer and heterodimer complexes often partnering with other members of the NF-kappaB family to exert its effects. Through these complexes c-Rel influences the transcription of cytokines growth factors and other molecules critical for immune function. The protein’s role extends to influencing the differentiation and survival of lymphocytes instrumental in mounting adequate immune responses.

Pathways

C-Rel plays a significant role in the regulation of the NF-kappaB signaling pathway and the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway. The NF-kappaB pathway is activated by inflammatory stimuli and stress which leads to the translocation of c-Rel to the nucleus. Here c-Rel regulates genes important for immune and inflammatory responses alongside other proteins like RelA and p50. In conjunction with the MAPK pathway c-Rel contributes to cellular responses to growth signals and stress collaborating with proteins such as JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) and ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase).

C-Rel’s dysregulation is associated with autoimmune diseases and lymphoid malignancies. Abnormal c-Rel activity contributes to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis where enhanced expression can lead to excessive inflammation and immune response. In certain lymphomas and leukemias overactive c-Rel promotes uncontrolled cell proliferation and survival. P53 a protein known for its role in tumor suppression may interact with pathways involving c-Rel influencing cancer progression and immune response dynamics. Understanding c-Rel and its interactions offers potential therapeutic targets for these and other related conditions.
