  6. After 10h, change the medium with the complete medium with 10% FBS and Penicillin-Streptomycin.

Aug 16th

Microscope Observation

[2014 Aug 16th 9:00am]

The first day after transfection

We change to medium into complete medium at 10%FBS 12 hours after transfection according to protocol. And take picture under microscope.

Laboratory note

The transfected cells are observed before we change the medium.

All groups at 1st day

Figure 1. Pictures are captured by phase contrast microscope. We can see clearly that some cells has suspended and became round. Strangely the G3 well 1 has a apparent amount of cells at abnormal status.

It is found that part of the cells round and suspended, and part of cells just become round. But the morphology of most of the cells are normal.

Passage cell to dish=

[2014 Aug 16th 15:00pm]

The first day after transfection

Passage part of cells to the 10cm petri dish (for picking monoclonal later except G5), and the remaining cells are still seeded on the previous 24-well plates (about 500μL cell suspension per well). (15:00 pm – 18:00 pm) For every group, two dishes with 5,000 cells seeded and two dished with 50,000 cells seeded.

Procedures

  1. Wash cells with PBS, trypsin digestion, add medium to stop digestion
  2. Transfer the cell suspension into 15 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuge at 800rpm for 5 min.
  3. Discard the supernatant and add 2 mL complete medium to suspend the cells.
  4. Count the cell concentration with blood counting chamber.
  5. Mark the new dishes, add 5 mL medium to every dish, and add corresponding cell suspension, mix well with the pipet.
  6. Culture.

Concentration of the cells
Group Counted number Concentration (cells/mL) Volume needed
1 30 300,000 167 and 16.7
2 20 200,000 294 and 29.4
3 30 300,000 294 and 29.4
4 30 300,000 143 and 14.3

Discussion

When counting cells, some dead cells were observed, and those cells were not included. The second day morning, some of the cells on the petri dish are round and suspended. Cells were few and scattered. For dishes with 5,000 cells, only several cells can be observed in one field under 4X objective lens. For dishes with 50,000 cells, near 10-20 cells can be observed in one field under 4X objective lens.

Aug 18th

Fluorescent Observation

[2014 Aug 18th 10:00am]

The third day after transfection

Observe the transfected cells on the plate under fluorescence microscope.

G1 3days

Figure . The fluorescent picture of G1 captured by microscope. of Cells has been passage to dish so the concentration is low. The rate of transefaction is pretty high, because the usage of pBx-083 expressing EGFP is high.

 G2 3days

Figure . The fluorescent picture of G2. Rate of fluorescent and intensity is much lower comparing with G1. 

 G3 3days

Figure . The fluorescent picture of G3. G3 has transfected with plasmid expressing Cas9 protein and GFP.About 1/3-1/5 cells has been killed.

 G4 3days

Figure . The fluorescent picture of G4. Same composition of plasmid as G3, but with lower usage of plasmid pBx-083 lower rate of transfection and lower intensity of fluorescencs.

 G5 3days

Figure . The fluorescent picture of G5. No green fluorescence on living cells, only some dead cells with auto-fluorescence.


[2014 Aug 18th 15:00pm]

The third day after transfection

And observe the transfected cells on petri dish with 50,000 cells under fluorescence microscope. For group 1 and 3 some living cells with fluorescence can be observed but for group 2&4, it is hard to find fluorescence.


Passage cells

[2014 Aug 19th 00:00am]

The forth day after transfection

Passage cells of every Groups from wells to petri dishes. Use antibiotics to kill cells without resistance. Only those with resistance can survive, can express gene we transform both resistance gene and gene we need.

Cells left after passage to the petri dish for monoclones are passage to another petri dish to construct a pool of all kinds of cells expressing resistance.But less stable and less homogeneous than monoclones.

Procedures

  1. Wash cells with PBS for 2 times
  2. Add trypsin 1ml and discard to digest for 2min at 37°C.
  3. Add complete medium 2ml to end digestion, suspend cells.
  4. Passage cell suspension to 10cm petri dish, and 5ml complete medium mix well with pipet. Mark the dish.

Cell selection

[2014 Aug 19th 16:00pm]

The forth day after transfection

The first day selection

Start the screening of the transfected cells on the plate with corresponding antibiotics.

Start the selection and screening of the transfected cells on one petri dish with 50,000 cells with corresponding antibiotics.

The fifth day after transfection

The second day selection

Observe the cells on the petri dish with fluorescence microscope. It is easy to find many living with green fluorescence in the pate, and the fluorescence of groups 1&3 is stronger than that of groups 2&4 moreover group 1&3 have much more cells with fluorescence than 2&4.

Green fluorenscence image and bright field image has been put together overlaying. Because overlay the fluorescent intensity on pictures does not represent the real fluorescent intensity. But can show the ratio of cells have fluorescence.

[2014 Aug 22th 18:30pm]

The seventh day after transfection

The forth day selection

Prepare for the second transfection.

We think that the first transfection may not be good enough, as a result, we prepare for the second time transfection. Just the same as the first time, we schemed to transfect HeLa cells with 3 different combination of plasmid.

Tree combinations
Group A EGFP:Piggybac = 1:1
Group B Cas9:EGFP:Piggybac = 1:1:1
Group C Cas9:Piggybac = 1:1

We seed HeLa cells in 6-well-plate (6wells at total), 100,000 cells per well. For tansfection

Procedure
  1. Wash cells with PBS, trypsin digestion, and medium to stop digestion.
  2. Discard the supernatant and add 8ml complete medium to resuspend the cells.
  3. Add 1ml PBS to every gap between well
  4. 1:10 dilution count the cell concentration with blood counting slide. Get the concentration: 760,000 cells/ml. 0.78ml cell suspendion + about 9ml DMEM with 10% FBS. Mix well and add 1.5ml per well, to mix well pepite the well gently.

Passage T2(transfection 2) cells

The concentration in well is very high, so we have to passage those cells.
Passage cells of every Groups from wells to 2 petri dishes, one 50000 cells per dish. Use antibiotics to kill cells without resistance. Only those with resistance can survive, can express gene we transform both resistance gene and gene we need.

Cells left after passage to the petri dish for monoclones are passage to another petri dish to construct a pool of all kinds of cells expressing resistance.But less stable and less homogeneous than monoclones.

Procedures

  1. Wash cells with PBS for 2 times
  2. Add trypsin 1ml and discard to digest for 2min at 37°C.
  3. Add complete medium 2ml to end digestion, suspend cells.
  4. Count cell number with blood counting chamber.

The fluorescence rate is very high of the first time transfected cells. So we passage them and prepare to preserve.

Change medium

Sept 2nd

Prepare freezing preserve cells

Change medium

T2 cells.

Fluorescence Observation

Sept 3rd

Freezing T1 stable cells

As we have created and tested our newly constructed cell-line, we must prepare multiple frozen aliquots to ensure a renewable source of cells.

Materials

  • 10cm petri plate seeden with 5 groups of stable new cell-line.
  • DMSO
  • FBS
  • DMEM
  • Cryovials
  • Nalgene® Mr. Frosty® Freezing Container

Procedures

  1. Rinse the plate twice with PBS to remove any floating cells and wash out all medium.
  2. Trypsinize and pool all of the cells.
  3. Centrifuge the cells at 800 rpm for 5 min. Aspirate the supernatant.
  4. Resuspend the pellet in freezing medium with pipette. Use 20% FBS, 70% DMEM, and 10% DMSO.
  5. Dispense 1 ml aliquots into sterile cryovials and place vials in Nalgene frezing containers, and freeze at –80°C overnight.
  6. The next day, remove the vials from the container, and place in liquid nitrogen storage for storage.

Result

After we place vials into container we forget to put container into -80°C, instead we place it at 20°C overnight. Experiment failed.
We have left a little fraction of cells seeding in T-25 flask. So we passage them to 10cm petri dish for expand and next freezing.

Microscope Observation

Monoclones

Some of the monoclones grows very fast, sufficient to passage to bigger well and do further experiment.

Sept 8th

[2014 Spet 8th 2:40]

=Microscope Observation

Find medium infected with bacteria.

T2 cells

  • T2-GA is 50-60% confluent, well status and shape.
  • T2-GB is 30–50% confluent, well status and shape.
  • T2-GC-group cells' density is very high.

Pick monoclones

Clones on the plate for pick monoclones have grown into a big monoclone. So we pick up those clones and passage to 24-well-plate. Culture those monoclones and do experiment. Because monoclones have better stability.

Materials

  • Complete medium
  • 200μl pipette tip
  • 24-well-plate
  • PBS
  • Trypsin
  • PYREX™ Cloning Cylinders

Procedures

Procedure

  1. Examine the culture dish containing well-isolated clones with a microscope. Locate those with a good condition considerable population.
  2. Once satisfactory colonies have been located, draw a circle around them on the bottom of the dish with a marking pen. Select colonies that are of bigger size (bigger represent quicker growth rate) and well isolated from other colonies.
  3. Remove and discard the growth medium. Rinse the plate twice with PBS to remove any floating cells and wash out all medium.
  4. Using sterile tweezer pick up a cloning cylinder. Gently press the flat bottom of the cylinder into the sterile vaseline and remove with a sudden vertical motion. If done properly, this will give even distribution of grease on the bottom of the cylinder. Set the cylinder over a colony. Gently press the cylinder down evenly with the tweezer. Uneven pressure will cause the grease seal to leak. Be very careful not to slide the cylinder across the colony. This will smear the silicone grease over the cells and prevent the trypsin from contacting them.
  5. Verify positioning of the cylinder over the colony with the microscope. Make sure there are no other colonies within the sealed area in the cylinder.
  6. Add about 20μL of the 0.25% trypsin to the cloning cylinder.
  7. Incubate the dish at 37°C for 3 minutes. Then examine cells under the microscope make sure that cells have been round up and come off the dish bottom. Add a few drops of growth medium to the cylinder and gently aspirate the cells with a pipette.
  8. Transfer the cells to a suitable culture vessel and add the appropriate volume of medium. Colonies are seeded in well from a 24well plate. It may be necessary to rinse the cylinder with additional medium to remove cells left after the initial transfer.
  9. Incubate cells as usual.

Protocol

  • Remove and discard the growth medium. Rinse the plate twice with 200 PBS to remove any floating cells and wash out all medium.
  • Add about 100μL of the 0.25% trypsin to well in 24-well-plate, or 1ml to 10cm petri dish and aspirate after 30s.
  • Trypsinize 1-2min at 37°C
  • Add 400μL complete medium per well or 4ml per petri dish to neutrualize trypsin stop trypsinize.
  • Gently suspend with Pasteur tube or pepitte.
  • Pepite 500μL into EP tubes.
  • Centrifuge for 5min at 800rpm.
  • Aspirate supernatant and add 500PBS to suspend pellet filt with 300mesh filter.and pepite to cytometry tubes. Mark well and carefully.
