Thawing & Subculturing Instructions 1. Thaw cells by gently swirling in a 37°C water bath. To limit contamination, do not submerge the O-ring and cap.

2. When cells are ~70% thawed (~1 min), transfer the vial into a biosafety cabinet, and wipe the surface with 70% ethanol. Allow tube to dry completely.

3. Transfer the cells gently into a 15 mL conical tube containing 10 mL of pre-warmed culture medium (without antibiotic selection marker). Centrifuge cells at ~125 x g for 5~7 min.

4. Remove supernatant without disturbing the pellet, and resuspend cells in 1 mL culture medium (without antibiotic selection marker). Transfer cells to a 6-well plate containing ~2 mL pre-warmed growth medium (without antibiotic selection marker) or a T25 flask containing 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium (without antibiotic selection marker).

5. Incubate the culture at 37°C with 5% CO2.

6. Subculture: split saturated culture 1:4 ~ 1:6 every 3 days; seed out at about 1~3 x 10^5 cells/mL.
Growth Properties Suspension, round
Freeze Medium Frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
Freezing Instructions Cells are recommended to generate additional frozen stocks at early passages. Frozen stocks should be preserved in a designated cryopreservation medium or in 70% RPMI 1640 + 20% FBS + 10% DMSO (without antibiotic selection marker).

1. Prepare the freezing medium (70% RPMI 1640 + 20% FBS + 10% DMSO, without antibiotic selection marker) fresh immediately before use.

2. Keep the freezing medium on ice and label cryovials.

3. Transfer cells to a sterile, conical centrifuge tube, and count the cells.

4. Centrifuge the cells at 250 x g for 5 minutes at room temperature and carefully aspirate off the medium.

5. Resuspend the cells at a density of at least 3 x10^6 cells/ml in chilled freezing medium.

6. Aliquot 1 ml of the cell suspension into each cryovial.

7. Freeze cells in the CoolCell freezing container overnight in a -80°C freezer.

8. Transfer vials to liquid nitrogen for long-term storage.
Mycoplasma Negative
Format One frozen vial containing millions of cells
Storage Liquid nitrogen
Safety Considerations

The following safety precautions should be observed.

1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.

2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.

3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.

4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.

5. All waste should be considered hazardous.

6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.

FLT3 (or FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3) is a protein encoded by the human FLT3 gene. It is a cell surface receptor for cytokines and is involved in the regulation of hematopoiesis (the process of blood cell formation). FLT3 is expressed on the surface of many hematopoietic progenitor cells. Activating mutations in the FLT3 gene are one of the most common genetic abnormalities in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and internal tandem duplications (ITDs) of the FLT3 gene are particularly associated with poor prognosis. The FLT3-ITD-D835Y mutation means a change in amino acid 835, replacing aspartate (D) with tyrosine (Y). The presence of this mutation affects treatment options for patients with AML. Therefore, early detection of this mutation is crucial for optimal patient management. Human FLT3-ITD-D835Y stable cell line - BaF3 is a cell line genetically engineered to express the FLT3-ITD-D835Y mutation. The specific mutations expressed in this cell line, FLT3-ITD-D835Y, involve the insertion of a repeat sequence (ITD) and a point mutation that changes the amino acid at position 835 from aspartate to tyrosine (D835Y). This BaF3 cell line is derived from mouse pro-B cells and is widely used in drug screening and biomedical research. It is a stable cell line, which means that the quality and properties of the cells remain unchanged even after many generations of growth. These cells provide a valuable model system for studying the role of FLT3 mutations in hematological malignancies and can be used to test novel therapies targeting the FLT3-ITD-D835Y mutation.

Autophagy plays a key role in drug resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), including the FLT3-ITD mutant subtype. Here, researchers examined the expression of autophagy markers in FLT3-ITD-positive leukemia cells before and after acquired FLT3 inhibitor resistance. Researchers tested the stimulatory effects of the acquired D835Y mutation and the bone marrow microenvironment (BME) on autophagy and explored the mechanisms by which autophagy mediates FLT3 inhibitor resistance. These results showed that sorafenib-resistant cells significantly overexpressed autophagy markers compared with sorafenib-sensitive cells or cells before sorafenib treatment. Both the acquired D835Y mutation and BME activated cytoprotective autophagy to mediate FLT3 inhibitor resistance. Autophagy activation reduced the inhibitory effect of FLT3 inhibitors on FLT3 downstream signaling, thereby weakening their anti-leukemic effects. Inhibiting autophagy with CQ can significantly enhance the inhibitory effect of FLT3 inhibitors on FLT3 downstream signaling, ultimately overcoming resistance to FLT3 inhibitors.

To examine the activation of autophagy in sorafenib-resistant AML cells, researchers established sorafenib-resistant cell lines, such as Baf3 cells with FLT3-D835Y or FLT3-ITD + D835Y mutations, and examined the expression of autophagy markers, including LC3B, Beclin-1, ATG5, and p62. Consistent with previous reports, Ba/F3-FLT3-ITD + D835Y mutant cells were resistant to sorafenib (Figure 1A). Compared with sorafenib-sensitive Ba/F3-ITD mutant cells ( Figure 1A ), both Ba/F3-FLT3-D835Y and Ba/F3-FLT3-ITD + D835Y mutant cells showed higher LC3B-II, Beclin-1, and ATG5 expression and p62 degradation ( Figure 1B ), suggesting that sorafenib-resistant FLT3-ITD-positive cell lines can also overexpress autophagy and that cytoprotective autophagy may be activated by acquired resistance mutations.
