Renseignements généraux
| Description | TF-1 cells are erythroblasts isolated from the bone marrow of a 35-year-old Asian male diagnosed with severe pancytopenia in 1987. These cells are a pivotal model for studying the complex processes of proliferation and differentiation within myeloid progenitor cells. As a cell line, TF-1 is heavily utilized in hematological research to understand the underlying mechanisms that govern cell cycle regulation and development in myeloid lineages. In addition to their primary role in hematopoietic research, TF-1 cells serve as a robust system for examining the impact of various cytokines on cell survival and growth. Their dependence on specific growth factors such as granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) for proliferation makes them an excellent tool for studying cytokine-mediated signaling pathways. This characteristic also makes TF-1 cells useful in evaluating the efficacy of new pharmacological agents that aim to modulate these pathways, thereby contributing significantly to therapeutic advances in treating myeloid disorders and other related diseases. |

Manipulation
| Milieu de culture | RPMI 1640, w: 2.1 mM stable Glutamine, w: 2.0 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820700a) |
|---|---|
| Suppléments | Supplement the medium with 10% FBS, 5 ng/ml GM-CSF; for long-term culture: IL-3 |
| Repiquage | Initiate cultures with a cell density of 2 x 105 cells/ml and maintain them within the range of 1 x 105 to 1 x 106 cells/ml. For subculturing, transfer the cell suspension to a fresh cell culture flask pre-filled with the correct volume of fresh culture medium. |
| Densité de semis | > 2 x 105 cells/ml |
| Renouvellement des fluides | 2 to 3 times per week |
| Milieu de congélation | As a cryopreservation medium, we use complete growth medium (including FBS) + 10% DMSO for adequate post-thaw viability, or CM-1 (Cytion catalog number 800100), which includes optimized osmoprotectants and metabolic stabilizers to enhance recovery and reduce cryo-induced stress. |
| Décongélation et culture des cellules |
|
| Atmosphère d'incubation | 37°C, 5% CO2, humidified atmosphere. |
| Conditions d'expédition | Cryopreserved cell lines are shipped on dry ice in validated, insulated packaging with sufficient refrigerant to maintain approximately −78 °C throughout transit. On receipt, inspect the container immediately and transfer vials without delay to appropriate storage. |
| Conditions d'entreposage | For long-term preservation, place vials in vapor-phase liquid nitrogen at about −150 to −196 °C. Storage at −80 °C is acceptable only as a short interim step before transfer to liquid nitrogen. |
Contrôle de la qualité et analyse moléculaire
| Stérilité | Mycoplasma contamination is excluded using both PCR-based assays and luminescence-based mycoplasma detection methods. To ensure there is no bacterial, fungal, or yeast contamination, cell cultures are subjected to daily visual inspections. |
