H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line
Description
Cat. No: GM-C25571
Product: H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line


FSHR (follicle-stimulating hormone receptor) is a key G protein-coupled receptor found in the reproductive cells of the ovaries and testes. It mediates the effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and regulates reproductive system development and function. In females, FSHR activation promotes follicle growth and maturation, while in males, it aids sperm production and maturation. Abnormal FSHR expression or function can lead to infertility.

The FSHR signaling pathway is primarily mediated by G proteins, especially Gαs, which activate adenylate cyclase (AC) and increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels. Elevated cAMP activates protein kinase A (PKA), regulating various downstream molecules, including transcription factors. FSHR can also activate the MAPK pathway via β-arrestin, influencing cell proliferation and survival. These signaling interactions are essential for the proper function of reproductive cells.

H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line is a clonal stable CHO-K1 cell line constructed using lentiviral technology, constitutive expression of the FSHR gene, along with signal-dependent expression of a luciferase reporter gene. When FSH binds to FSHR, it activates downstream signaling pathways, leading to the expression of luciferase. The luciferase activity measurement indicates the activation level of the signaling pathway and can thus be used to evaluate the in vitro effects of drugs related to FSHR.
Data
Response to Recombinant Human FSH. The H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line (Cat. GM-C25571) at a concentration of 1.5E4 cells/well (96-well format) was stimulated with serial dilutions of Recombinant Human FSH (Novoprotein/CM28) in assay buffer (F12K + 1% FBS + 1% P.S) for 6 hours. The firefly luciferase activity was measured using the GMOne-Step Luciferase Reporter Gene Assay Kit (Cat. GM-040503). The maximum induction fold was approximately [46.7]. Data are shown by drug mass concentration.
The passage stability of response to Recombinant Human FSH. The passage 8, 18 and 28 of H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line (Cat. GM-C25571) at a concentration of 1.5E4 cells/well (96-well format) were stimulated with serial dilutions of Recombinant Human FSH (Novoprotein/CM28) in assay buffer (F12K + 1% FBS + 1% P.S) for 6 hours. The firefly luciferase activity was measured using the GMOne-Step Luciferase Reporter Gene Assay Kit (Cat. GM-040503). Data are shown by drug mass concentration.
H_FSHR Reporter CHO-K1 Cell Line (Cat. GM-C25571) was determined by flow cytometry using Anti-FSHR hIgG1 Antibody(9H11) (Cat. GM-50111AB).

Cell Recovery

Recovery Medium: F12K+10% FBS+1% P.S

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.

a)       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 - 3 minutes).

b)       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.

c)       Transfer the vial contents to a centrifuge tube containing 5.0 mL complete culture medium and spin at approximately 176 x g for 5 minutes. Discard supernatant.

d)       Resuspend cell pellet with the recommended recovery medium. And dispense into appropriate culture dishes.

e)       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.

Cell Freezing

Freezing Medium: 90% FBS+10% DMSO

a)          Centrifuge at 176 x g for 3 minutes to collect cells.

b)         Resuspend the cells in pre-cooled freezing medium and adjust the cell density to 5E6 cells/mL.

c)          Aliquot 1 mL into each vial.

d)         Place the vial in a controlled-rate freezing container and store at -80°C for at least 1 day, then transfer to liquid nitrogen as soon as possible.

Cell passage

Growth medium: F12K+10% FBS+1% P.S+4 μg/mL Blasticidin+4 μg/mL Puromycin

For the first 1 to 2 passages post-resuscitation, use the recovery medium. Once the cells have stabilized, switch to a growth medium.

a)          Remove and discard culture medium.

b)         Briefly rinse the cell layer with PBS to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor.

c)          Add 1.0 mL of 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin-EDTA solution to dish and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 2 to 3 minutes at 37°C).

d)         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°C to facilitate dispersal.

e)          Add 2.0 mL of growth medium to mix well and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.

f)          After centrifugation, resuspend the pellet and add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.

g)         Incubate cultures at 37°C.

Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:4 - 1:5 is recommended

Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days

Notes

a)          After the stabilization of the cell condition, there will be fewer dead cells post-passage, the cell growth rate will tend to stabilize, cell morphology will become uniform, and the cells will appear robust.
