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
DR4 also known as TRAIL-R1 is a receptor with a molecular weight of approximately 60 kDa. It is part of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. DR4 is widely expressed in various types of tissues such as the liver spleen thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. It functions mechanically by binding to its ligand TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) which initiates signaling cascades that lead to apoptosis or programmed cell death.
- Biological function summary
The death receptor 4 plays an important role in mediating cell apoptosis. Upon ligand binding DR4 interacts with the adapter molecule FADD (FAS-associated protein with death domain) facilitating the formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). This complex recruits and activates caspase-8 which eventually leads to the activation of the downstream effector caspases driving the cell towards apoptosis. DR4 operates as a significant component of the extrinsic pathway of apoptosis a process important for maintaining cellular homeostasis and eliminating harmful cells.
- Pathways
DR4 functions critically within the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. This pathway involves other death receptors such as DR5 which also binds TRAIL similarly leading to apoptosis through DISC formation and caspase activation. The extrinsic pathway interconnects with the intrinsic pathway via the mitochondria with proteins like Bid acting as a bridge between them. The engagement of these pathways highlights DR4’s importance in regulatory mechanisms of cell death tightly controlling cellular proliferation and survival.
- Associated diseases and disorders
DR4 plays a significant role in cancer and autoimmune diseases. Alterations in DR4 expression or function can lead to evasion of apoptosis by cancer cells contributing to tumor progression. The defective apoptotic signaling via DR4 is also linked to autoimmune disorders where insufficient apoptosis may allow for the survival of autoreactive immune cells. In both scenarios DR4's involvement usually associates with its counterpart DR5 as they share similar ligand-binding properties and signal transduction mechanisms in diseased states.
