2. HeLa Cell Line Description and Applications

Products > HeLa Transfection Reagent (Cervix Adenocarcinoma Cells)
HeLa Cell Line Description and Applications
The HeLa cell line originates from the cervical cancer cells of Henrietta Lacks, a 31-year old female patient, in The HeLa cell line is remarkable in that it is the first human cell line able to survive in vitro indefinitely. The cells were taken from a tissue sample from the adenocarcinoma, and HeLa cells have a modal chromosome number of 82. HeLa cells have an active type of telomerase during cell division, and as a result, the cell line proliferates extremely quickly in comparison to other cell lines. Jonas Salk used HeLa cells to test the polio vaccine, and HeLa cells have been an invaluable tool in a vast array of research from cancer to gene mapping to AIDS and studying the toxic effects of radiation. The HeLa cell line contains human papillomavirus sequences and tests positive for lyso-PC and keratin.

3. HeLa Transfection Protocol
Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products
Products > HeLa Transfection Reagent (Cervix Adenocarcinoma Cells)
HeLa Transfection Protocol
1. Plate 10, ,000 HeLa cells per well in 0.5 ml of complete growth medium 12–24 hours prior to transfection
2. Wash with 1xPBS and add 0.5 ml of fresh growth medium
3. Prepare transfection complexes by mixing 40 µl of serum-free medium, 5.5 µl of transfection reagent, and
• 750 ng DNA (or mRNA), or
• 30 nM - 50 nM of siRNA (or microRNA)
*Referred to a final volume including growth medium
4. Incubate transfection complexes at RT for minutes
5. Optional: Add 2 µl of Complex Condenser. This reagent reduces the size of transfection complex, therefore increasing transfection efficiency; however, it may increase cell toxicity
6. Add prepared transfection complexes to 0.5 ml of complete growth medium with HeLa cells (from step 2)
7. Incubate cells at 37ºC in a humidified CO2 incubator
8. Assay for phenotype or target gene expression hours after transfection
Optional: Transfection efficiency can be increased by addition of Transfection Enhancer reagent. Add 2 µl of Transfection Enhancer reagent hours after transfection
If the viability of HeLa cells being transfected is affected at hours post-transfection, the level of cytotoxicity can be decreased by changing the growth medium and eliminating redundant exposure of cells to transfectant

Data
Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by qRT-PCR in HeLa cells transfected by Cyclophilin B siRNA or non-silencing siRNA control following the recommended transfection protocol. Cyclophilin mRNA expression levels were measured 48 hours post-transfection. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Cyclophilin B data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are presented as means ± SD (n=3).

Data
Figure 2. Protein expression of Cyclophilin B in HeLa cells. DNA plasmid expressing Cyclophilin B or siRNA targeting Cyclophilin B were transfected into HeLa cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
