- Description: Immortalised ER-Hoxb8 bone marrow progenitor cells expressing cell surface antigens TY-1.1 used to study macrophage functions with implications in cancer immunotherapies targeting the motility of tumour-associated macrophages
- Research area: Cancer
- Production details: To generate the ER-Hoxb8 Wasp?/? cells, 106 ER-Hoxb8 progenitor cells were seeded on fibronectin coated six-well culture plates in myeloid medium and transduced with 2?ml of viral suspension (as described above) by spinoculation (1000?g, 90?min, 22°C) in the presence of polybrene (8??g/ml). Polybrene was serially diluted by renewing half of the medium over several days to obtain a final concentration of 1.4??g/ml. Antibiotic selection of transduced ER-Hoxb8 cells was performed 3?days post-infection with puromycin (10??g/ml) and maintained for at least 2?weeks. Immortalized ER-Hoxb8 Wasp?/? cells were maintained and enriched in myeloid medium with puromycin (2.5??g/ml) by serial passages of non-adherent cells every 34?days into new six-well culture plates. The same protocol was used to generate Wasp+/+ control ER-Hoxb8 cells, except that empty viruses were used.' (Accarias et al. 2020. J Cell Sci, 133 (5): jcs236703, PMID: 31964707)
