HCM-BROD-0721-C43

PDM-484

A patient-derived next-generation cancer model generated by the Human Cancer Models Initiative (HCMI). HCM-BROD-0721-C43 (ATCC No. PDM-484) is from a metastatic melanoma isolated from lymph node tissue. This tumor-derived model can be used in basic research and pharmacological screening applications. Data for the tumor-derived organoid model is available at the GDC. Additional molecular characterizations may be available at the GDC. Additional controlled data may be available via dbGaP.

Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.

Handling information

Complete medium
The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (ATCC 30-2002). To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (FBS; ATCC 30-2020) to a final concentration of 10%.
Temperature
37°C
Atmosphere
95% Air, 5% CO2
Handling procedure

To insure the highest level of viability, thaw the vial and initiate the culture as soon as possible upon receipt. If upon arrival, continued storage of the frozen culture is necessary, it should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at ­70°C. Storage at ­70°C will result in loss of viability.

  1. Thaw the vial by gentle agitation in a 37°C water bath. To reduce the possibility of contamination, keep the O ­ring and cap out of the water. Thawing should be rapid (approximately 2 minutes).
  2. Remove the vial from the water bath as soon as the contents are thawed, and decontaminate by dipping in or spraying with 70% ethanol. All of the operations from this point on should be carried out under strict aseptic conditions.
  3. Transfer the vial contents to a centrifuge tube containing 9.0 mL complete culture medium and spin at approximately 200 x g for 5 minutes.
  4. Resuspend cell pellet with the recommended complete medium (see the specific batch information for the culture recommended seeding density) and dispense into a 25 cm2 or a 75 cm2 culture flask. It is important to avoid excessive alkalinity of the medium during recovery of the cells. It is suggested that, prior to the addition of the vial contents, the culture vessel containing the complete growth medium be placed into the incubator for at least 15 minutes to allow the medium to reach its normal pH (7.0 to 7.6).
  5. Incubate the culture at 37°C in a suitable incubator.  A 5% CO2 in air atmosphere is recommended if using the medium described on this product sheet.
     
Subculturing procedure
  1. Passage cells when the culture has reached approximately 70% to 80% confluence.
  2. Warm Trypsin-EDTA Solution (ATCC 30-2101)) and complete growth media to room temperature.
  3. For each flask, carefully aspirate the spent media without disturbing the monolayer.
  4. Rinse the cell layer one time with 3 to 5 mL D-PBS (ATCC 30-2200) to remove residual medium.
  5. Add room temperature Trypsin-EDTA Solution (1 to 2 mL for every 25 cm2) to each flask.
  6. Gently rock each flask to ensure complete coverage of the TrypLE solution over the cells, and then aspirate the excess fluid off of the monolayer.
  7. Observe the cells under the microscope.
  8. When the majority of cells appear to have detached (typically 2-5 minutes), quickly add an equal volume of the complete growth medium to each flask.
  9. Transfer the dissociated cells to a sterile centrifuge tube.
  10. Centrifuge the cells at 200 x g for 5 minutes.
  11. Aspirate neutralized dissociation solution from the cell pellet and resuspend the cells in 2 to 8 mL fresh, pre-warmed, complete growth medium.
  12. Count the cells and seed new culture flasks at a density of 5 to 6 x 104 viable cells per cm2.
