Exosome spin columns mw 3000

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States
About the product

The Exosome Spin Columns (MW 3000) are a laboratory tool designed for the isolation and purification of exosomes from various biological samples. These columns utilize a molecular weight cut-off of 3000 Da to selectively retain exosomes while allowing smaller molecules to pass through. The columns are suitable for use with a range of sample types, including cell culture supernatants, body fluids, and other biological matrices.

Tracking Exosome Uptake by BMSCs

2025
To identify whether SCs-derived exosomes could be taken up by BMSCs, the fluorescent dye PKH67 (green) (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) was used to label exosomes according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, exosomes were extracted from SCs and diluted in PBS to a final concentration of 100 mg/ml, and 2 ml of PKH67 dye was mixed with 250 ml of Diluent C (PHK67 solution) [32 (link), 33 (link)]. Then, 600 ml of the diluted exosomes and 200 ml of the PKH67 mixture were added to a 1.5-ml centrifugation tube and incubated at room temperature for 5 min. Centrifugation at 750 × g for 2 min was performed to remove the unincorporated dye by using exosome spin columns (MW3000; Invitrogen, Vilnius, Lithuania). The labeled exosomes, resuspended in exosome-free DMEM, were incubated with BMSCs for 4 h at 37 °C. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue) (Solar Bio, Beijing, China), and F-actin was stained with tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate phalloidin (red) (MKBio, Shanghai, China). Images were then captured using a confocal microscope.

Modulating CD8+ T Cells with Extracellular Vesicles

2025
For in vitro EVs treatment, a total of 2.5 × 108 EVs (equivalent to those collected from 6 × 106 producer cells, 50 mL culture medium) derived from Hepa1-6-Ctrl or Hepa1-6-HDAC2-AS2 cells were added to 2 × 105 activated CD8+ T cells for 48 h, PBS as a control treatment. Then, the cells were collected for western blot analysis, RNA extraction, and flow cytometry detection. For in vitro EVs labeling, DiI (Beyotime Biotechnology, China) was added to PBS buffer or EVs suspension at a concentration of 1 μM and incubated for 30 min at 37 °C, followed by washing through exosome spin columns (MW3000) (Invitrogen) to remove excess dye. DiI-labeled EVs were incubated with activated CD8+ T cells for 24 h. As a control, PBS buffer containing free DiI dye was washed through exosome spin columns. In addition, a total of 2 × 108 EVs (equivalent to those collected from 5 × 106 producer cells in 50 mL of culture medium) derived from Hepa1-6-Ctrl-EGFP-mCD63 or Hepa1-6-HDAC2-AS2-EGFP-mCD63 cells were added to 2 × 105 activated CD8+ T cells and incubated for 24 h.

Evaluating Exosome and Mimetic Uptake

2024
To evaluate exosome- and mimetic-mediated cell uptake by human fetal lung fibroblasts (MRC-5) and mouse macrophages (J774), 1×104/cm2 MRC-5 and J774 cells were seeded into 6-well plates and allowed to adhere overnight. The next day, exosomes and mimetics were stained with 5 µM Vybrant DiD dye (ThermoFisher) in a final volume of 500 µl for 10 min at 37°C. Washes were performed by ultracentrifuging mixture at 40,000xg for 1 hr at 4°C. The pellet was resuspended in 1 ml of 0.22 µm filtered PBS (Gibco) and exosome spin columns (MW3000, Invitrogen) were used to remove any unbound dye. DiD stained exosomes and mimetics (at the concentration of 1×108) were added to each well. Cellular uptake was quantitatively evaluated at different time points (4, 8, 12 hrs) by fluorescence microscopy. The efficiency of exosomes and mimetics in protecting mRNA while keeping it functional, MRC-5 and J774 were exposed to mRNA-loaded particles for 24, 48 and 72 hrs. At the end of each incubation cells were processed for flow cytometry. The same approach was followed to test the efficacy of F-MIMs as delivery systems.

Internalization of Exosomes by hBMSCs

2024
HBMSCs were purchased from Cyagen Biosciences. To detect whether Exos could be internalized by HBMSCs, PM-Exos, and OM-Exos were labeled by Dil (Beyotime Biotechnology, China), a lipophilic fluorescent membrane dye for easy tracking. Initially, Dil was diluted to a final concentration of 10 μM and incubated with Exos for 30 min at 37 °C. Exosome Spin Columns MW3000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) were used to remove the unincorporated dye. After that, labeled Exos of 1010 particles/ml were co-cultured with HBMSCs for 4 h. Subsequently, the supernatant was discarded and HBMSCs were washed twice with 10% PBS to remove free Exos and fixed in 4% PFA for 10 min. Hoechst 33342 (Beyotime Biotechnology, China) and Alexa Fluor 488 phalloidin (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) were separately used for the staining of nuclei and F-actin. The images were obtained under a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM, Leica, Germany). In the blank control group, Exos were replaced by PBS to co-culture with HBMSCs.

Exosome Uptake by Cancer Cells

2023
Exosomes were collected by density gradient (1.15–1.19 g/mL) ultracentrifugation according to previously published protocol.15 (link) After ultracentrifugation preparations, exosomes were labeled with PKH67 Fluorescent Cell Linker Kits (Sigma-Aldrich) according to the manufacturer’s instructions, followed by washing through Exosome Spin Columns (MW3000) (Invitrogen) to remove excess dye. Next, 5 μg exosomes were incubated with 1 × 105 (link) MFC or other cancer cells for 24 h which were examined under a confocal microscope at the indicated time points.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
