Comments: The EML-3C cell line was established in 2005 from isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a two-year-old male Portuguese Garrano horse. These cells possess functional properties of macrophages such as non-specific esterase (NSE) activity, are able to phagocytose fluorescent bioparticles and produce nitrites in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. The EML-3C cell line expresses the EIA V receptor for cellular entry (ELR1) and supports replication of the virulent equine infectious anemia virus (EIA Vpv). This cell line can be used as a valuable tool for studying equine macrophage functions, lentivirus infection, and the equine immune system. [16173840]

Propagation: ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium, Catalog No. 30-2002. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to 500 ml of the base medium:

fetal bovine serum (FBS) to a final concentration of 10%

horse serum (HS) to a final concentration of 10%

0.1 mM non-essential amino acids

EML-3C細胞Temperature: 37.0°C

Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5%

Subculturing: Protocol: Volumes used in this protocol are for 75 cm2 flasks; proportionally reduce or increase amount of dissociation medium for culture vessels of other sizes.

Remove and discard culture medium.

Briefly rinse the cell layer with Ca++/Mg++ free Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (D-PBS) or 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin - 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum which contains trypsin inhibitor.

Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).

Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37.0°C to facilitate dispersal.

Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.

Transfer cell suspension to a centrifuge tube and spin at approximately 125 xg for 5 to 10 minutes. Discard supernatant.

Resuspend the cell pellet in fresh growth medium. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels. An inoculum of 2 X 104 to 4 X 104 viable cells/cm2 is recommended.

Incubate cultures at 37.0°C.

Subcultivation ratio: EML-3C細胞A subcultivation ratio of 1:4 to 1:8 is recommended.

Medium renewal: Every 2 to 3 days

Preservation: Freeze medium: complete growth medium, 95%; DMSO, 5%
