General information about the RAW264.7 cell line
| 說明 | RAW 264.7 cells are a widely used murine macrophage cell line derived from the ascites of a male mouse with a tumor induced by the Abelson murine leukemia virus and are commonly used in immunological and infectious disease research. As an immortalized cell line, RAW264.7 cells are a key model system for studying macrophage biology, including immune responses to pathogens, signal transduction, and gene expression. RAW264.7 cells are particularly valuable for their ability to differentiate into macrophage-like cells. These cells can be polarized into M1 macrophages, associated with inflammatory responses, or M2 macrophages, linked to tissue repair and anti-inflammatory processes. This polarization capacity, along with their ability to perform essential macrophage functions like pinocytosis and phagocytosis, underscores their relevance in studying macrophage biology and the complex interplay between immune responses and pathogens. RAW 264.7 cells are instrumental in studying the immune system's interactions with various factors, including pathogens and bone biology. RAW264.7 cells can be induced to differentiate into osteoclast-like cells under certain conditions, such as exposure to RANKL (Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor κB Ligand), making them a model for studying certain aspects of osteoclast biology and bone resorption. The RAW264.7 cell line's response to various stimuli, including the induction of pyroptosis, an inflammatory cell death process triggered by factors such as LPS (lipopolysaccharide), is instrumental in dissecting the pathways leading to inflammatory cytokine production. The impact of environmental conditions, such as extracellular glucose levels on cell function and phenotype, offers insights into cellular metabolism and the potential downregulation of inflammatory responses. RAW264.7 cells, with their origins in murine leukemia and their extensive use in immunological research, serve as a crucial tool in advancing our understanding of macrophage biology, immune system-pathogen dynamics, osteoimmunology, and inflammatory responses, highlighting their indispensable role in both basic and applied biomedical research. |

Cell maintenance techniques
| 培養基 | RPMI 1640, w: 2.0 mM stable Glutamine, w: 2.0 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820700a) |
|---|---|
| 營養補充品 | Supplement the medium with 10% FBS |
| 解離試劑 | Strongly adhesive cells, use of cell scraper |
| 倍增時間 | RAW264.7 cells exhibit a doubling time ranging from 11 to 30 hours |
| 傳代培養 | Remove the old medium from the adherent cells and wash them with PBS that lacks calcium and magnesium. For T25 flasks, use 3-5 ml of PBS, and for T75 flasks, use 5-10 ml. Then, cover the cells completely with Accutase, using 1-2 ml for T25 flasks and 2.5 ml for T75 flasks. Let the cells incubate at room temperature for 8-10 minutes to detach them. After incubation, gently mix the cells with 10 ml of medium to resuspend them, then centrifuge at 300xg for 3 minutes. Discard the supernatant, resuspend the cells in fresh medium, and transfer them into new flasks that already contain fresh medium. |
| 播種密度 | 4 x 104 cells/cm2 |
| 流體更新 | 2 to 3 times per week |
| 冷凍培養基 | 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. |
| 細胞解凍與培養 |
|
| 培養環境 | 37°C, 5% CO2, humidified atmosphere. |
| 運送條款 | 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. |
| 儲存條件 | 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. |
Quality control
| 不孕症 | 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. |
