Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs), Type 1 Diabetes Donor
INTENDED USE
This product is for research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
IMPORTANT USER NOTE
These cells exhibit biological characteristics associated with the obese donor phenotype, which may impact their growth, differentiation, and metabolic behavior compared to cells from lean donors. It is the user's responsibility to determine the suitability of this product for their specific application. Proper training in the handling of human-derived materials is required.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Regeneration Biology offers Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) from Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) donors, isolated from the subcutaneous adipose tissue of donors with a clinically confirmed diagnosis of T1D. These multipotent mesenchymal stem cells are cryopreserved at passage 1 (P1) to maximize viability and preserve their native, disease-state characteristics.
This unique cell population offers a crucial in vitro model for investigating the interplay between stem cells and the autoimmune, metabolic, and vascular complications of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Sourced from a disease-specific microenvironment, these ADSCs may exhibit altered paracrine signaling, differentiation potential, and immunomodulatory properties compared to those from healthy donors, offering critical insights for diabetes research and regenerative therapy development.

CELL CULTURE PROTOCOL
Thawing of Frozen Cells:
Upon receipt of frozen human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSC), it is crucial to thaw and culture the cells to maximize cell viability immediately. Delays in this process can lead to decreased cell health and functionality.
To effectively thaw the cells, submerge the vial containing the frozen cells in a preheated water bath at 37°C. Gently agitate the vial for 1-2 minutes to facilitate uniform thawing. Be careful to keep the cap of the vial above the water level to prevent potential contamination from the water bath, which could compromise sterility.
Once the cells are fully thawed, transfer the content of the vial into a sterile 15 mL conical tube that contains 5 mL of fresh Adipose-derived Stem Cell Growth Medium (STEM10). This medium is specifically formulated to support hADSC growth and ensure optimal recovery following thawing.
Following the transfer, centrifuge the cells at a speed of 1,000 rpm (approximately 220 × g) for 5 minutes at room temperature. This step helps to pellet the cells, facilitating the removal of any cryoprotectant and cellular debris.
After centrifugation, carefully aspirate the supernatant without disturbing the cell pellet. Re-suspend the pellet in fresh Adipose-derived Stem Cell Growth Medium, ensuring thorough mixing to maintain cell viability.
Transfer the re-suspended cells into either one 100 mm culture dish or one T75 flask, depending on your experimental requirements. Maintain the culture at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO₂. Change the medium every 2-3 days, monitoring the cells until they achieve a density of 70-80% confluence, indicating readiness for subculturing.
Standard Culture Procedure:
Once the cells reach a confluence of 70-80%, perform a careful medium change by first aspirating the existing growth medium. Rinse the cells gently with 5 mL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) in a T75 flask to remove any residual serum or growth factors that might inhibit trypsinization.
Add 3-5 mL of 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA directly to the flask. Incubate the cells at 37°C for approximately 5 minutes. This enzyme mixture will cleave the adhesive proteins that anchor the cells to the culture surface, thereby enabling cell detachment.
Once the incubation period is complete, neutralize the trypsin by adding 2-3 volumes of Adipose-derived Stem Cell Growth Medium to ensure the trypsin action is halted and to provide nutrients for cell recovery.
Proceed with centrifugation at 1,000 rpm (approximately 220 × g) for 5 minutes. After the centrifugation step, carefully re-suspend the cell pellet in the desired volume of growth medium, ensuring an even distribution of cells.
Seed the new culture vessels at a density of 5 × 10³ cells/cm². This seeding density is essential for optimal cell growth and expansion. Continue to change the medium every 2-3 days, monitoring the cells until they reach 70-80% confluence before considering additional passaging.
