Aspects that impact the delivery of CPPs are typically characterized using tissue culture models. One problem of using cell culture is that cell culture protocols have the potential to contribute to endosomal uptake and endosomal release of CPPs. Hence, a systematic study to identify which aspects of cell culturing techniques impact the endocytic uptake of a typical CPP, the TMR-TAT peptide (peptide sequence derived from HIV1-TAT with the N-terminus labeled with tetramethylrhodamine), was conducted. Aspects of cell culturing protocols previously found to generally modulate endocytosis, such as cell density, washing steps, and cell aging, did not affect TMR-TAT endocytosis. In contrast, cell dissociation methods, media, temperature, serum starvation, and media composition all contributed to changes in uptake. To establish a range of endocytosis achievable by different cell culture protocols, TMR-TAT uptake was compared among protocols. These protocols led to changes in uptake of more than 13-fold, indicating that differences in cell culturing techniques have a cumulative effect on CPP uptake. Taken together this study highlights how different protocols can influence the amount of endocytic uptake of TMR-TAT. Additionally, parameters that can be exploited to improve CPP accumulation in endosomes were identified. The protocols identified herein have the potential to be paired with other delivery enhancing strategies to improve overall delivery efficiency of CPPs.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10616-023-00591-1.</p>","PeriodicalId":10890,"journal":{"name":"Cytotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10575844/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41233116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pre-treatment with a high concentration of trehalose allows Pv11 cells to enter anhydrobiosis. In the dry state, Pv11 cells preserve transgenic luciferase while retaining its activity. Thus, these cells could be utilized for dry-preserving antibodies, enzymes, signaling proteins or other valuable biological materials without denaturation. However, Pv11 cells grow in suspension, which limits their applicability; for instance, they cannot be integrated into microfluidic devices or used in devices such as sensor chips. Therefore, in this paper, we developed an effective immobilization system for Pv11 cells that, crucially, allows them to maintain their anhydrobiotic potential even when immobilized. Pv11 cells exhibited a very high adhesion rate with both biocompatible anchor for membrane (BAM) and Cell-Tak coatings, which have been reported to be effective on other cultured cells. We also found that Pv11 cells immobilized well to uncoated glass if handled in serum-free medium. Interestingly, Pv11 cells showed desiccation tolerance when trehalose treatment was done prior to immobilization of the cells. In contrast, trehalose treatment after immobilization of Pv11 cells resulted in a significant decrease in desiccation tolerance. Thus, it is important to induce anhydrobiosis before immobilization. In summary, we report the successful development of a protocol for the dry preservation of immobilized Pv11 cells.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10616-023-00592-0.</p>","PeriodicalId":10890,"journal":{"name":"Cytotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10575823/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41233117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inflammasome activation plays a crucial role in inflammatory conditions; aberrant activation of inflammasome contributes to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Diethyl Maleate (DEM) is a promising antiinflammatory chemical to alleviate inflammasome activation. In this study, NLRP3 inflammasome was activated in N9 murine microglia via 1 µg/ml LPS (Lipopolysaccharide) for 4 h and 5 mM ATP (Adenosine 5′-triphosphate) for 1 h, respectively. We demonstrated that 1 h pretreatment of DEM attenuated NLRP3 inflammasome activation in microglial cells. Besides, mitochondrial ROS decreased upon DEM pretreatment in inflammasome-induced cells. Likewise, it ameliorated pyroptotic cell death in microglia. DEM is a potent activator of Nrf2 transcription factor, the key regulator of the antioxidant response pathway. Nrf2 has been a significant target to decrease aberrant inflammasome activation through the antioxidant compounds, including DEM. Here, we have shown that DEM increased Nrf2 translocation to the nucleus, resulting in Nrf2 target gene expression in microglia.
