01General information

Description

MIN-6 細胞系是一種源自胰島素瘤的小鼠胰臟β細胞系。 由於該細胞系能夠根據血糖水平合成並分泌胰島素,因此常被用於研究胰島素分泌機制及β細胞功能。此細胞系之所以特別有價值,在於它保留了原代胰臟β細胞的許多功能特徵,使其成為糖尿病研究的有用模型。

MIN-6 細胞展現出對葡萄糖的反應性胰島素分泌,這是針對胰島素釋放調控以及細胞對不同葡萄糖濃度反應之研究中,一項關鍵特徵。該細胞亦被用於探究胰臟β細胞的增殖與凋亡,以及各種基因和環境因素在這些過程中的作用。 此外,MIN-6 細胞在測試潛在藥理學製劑對 β 細胞功能與存活的影響方面發揮了關鍵作用,從而為糖尿病新治療策略的開發作出貢獻。

GMO status details
GMO-S1: This murine pancreatic β-cell line (MIN-6) contains an SV40 T-Antigen transgene under insulin promoter control from a transgenic mouse model, supporting immortalization and insulin-related studies. The construct is stably integrated. This classification applies only within Germany and may differ elsewhere.

06Handling and culture

Culture medium
DMEM,含 4.5 g/L 葡萄糖、4 mM L-谷氨醯胺、3.7 g/L NaHCO₃ 及 1.0 mM 丙酮酸鈉(Cytion 產品編號 820300a)
Incubation atmosphere

37°C,5% CO₂,加濕環境。

Supplements
在培養基中加入 15% 經熱滅活的胎牛血清 (FBS) 及 50 µM β-巯基乙醇。
Dissociation reagent
Accutase
Subculturing
倒掉舊培養基,並用 PBS 洗滌細胞。加入剛調製好且已加熱至 37 攝氏度的 0.025% 胰蛋白酶/0.02% EDTA 溶液,並等待細胞脫落,此過程通常約需 5 分鐘。 加入新鮮培養基以中和胰蛋白酶,然後將細胞混合物轉移至離心管中並進行離心。離心後,移除上清液,將細胞沉澱用新鮮培養基重新懸浮,並將懸浮液轉移至新的培養瓶中。

Thawing and culturing
  1. Confirm that the vial remains deeply frozen upon delivery, as cells are shipped on dry ice to maintain optimal temperatures during transit.

  2. Upon receipt, either store the cryovial immediately at temperatures below -150°C to ensure the preservation of cellular integrity, or proceed to step 3 if immediate culturing is required.

  3. For immediate culturing, swiftly thaw the vial by immersing it in a 37°C water bath with clean water and an antimicrobial agent, agitating gently for 40-60 seconds until a small ice clump remains.

  4. Perform all subsequent steps under sterile conditions in a flow hood, disinfecting the cryovial with 70% ethanol before opening.

  5. Carefully open the disinfected vial and transfer the cell suspension into a 15 ml centrifuge tube containing 8 ml of room-temperature culture medium, mixing gently.

  6. Centrifuge the mixture at 300 x g for 3 minutes to separate the cells and carefully discard the supernatant containing residual freezing medium.

  7. Gently resuspend the cell pellet in 10 ml of fresh culture medium. For adherent cells, divide the suspension between two T25 culture flasks; for suspension cultures, transfer all the medium into one T25 flask to promote effective cell interaction and growth.

  8. Adhere to established subculture protocols for continued growth and maintenance of the cell line, ensuring reliable experimental outcomes.

07Quality control and cryopreservation

Sterility

透過基於 PCR 的檢測及基於發光原理的支原體檢測方法,排除支原體污染的可能性。

為確保無細菌、真菌或酵母菌污染,每日均會對細胞培養物進行目視檢查。

Freeze medium
作為冷凍保存培養基,我們使用完全生長培養基(含 FBS)+ 10% DMSO 以確保解凍後的存活率,或使用 CM-1 (Cytion 型號 800100),該培養基含有經優化的滲透保護劑和代謝穩定劑,可提升細胞恢復率並減輕冷凍誘導的壓力。
Storage conditions

若需長期保存,請將試管置於溫度約為 −150 至 −196 °C 的氣相液氮中。僅在轉移至液氮之前,可將試管暫時存放於 −80 °C 環境中,作為短期過渡步驟。

Shipping conditions

冷凍保存的細胞系會以乾冰冷藏,並裝於經驗證的隔熱包裝中,包裝內含有足夠的冷媒,以確保在運輸過程中溫度維持在約 −78 °C。收到貨物後,請立即檢查容器,並盡快將試管轉移至適當的儲存場所。
