Application

Staining of rat hepatocyte for in vitro migration assay

Starting Material

Rat pancreatic cell culture, DMEM, DMEM with 10% FBS, PBS, DMSO, culture incubator, fluorescent microscope

Protocol Overview

Five rats of 12 weeks age were sacrificed, livers were harvested, ectracellular matrix of liver tissue was digested with collagenase V and isolated cells are then filtered through a 100 µm pore size mesh nylon filter, and cultured onto plates. After 4-hour culture, hepatocytes were selectively purified using asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) antibody conjugated dynabeads. Established culture was passaged for at least 2 times and stained with 4 micromolar solution of Cell Tracker Green CMFDA dye for 40 min. After staining media was replaced with DMEM containing 10% serum and cells were used for in vitro cell migration assay.
