General description

3dGRO® Human Colon Organoid Expansion Medium is a complete ready-to-use serum-free medium for the expansion and long-term culture of human colonic organoids. The medium has been validated for use with 3dGRO® Human iPSC Derived Colon Organoids (Cat. No. SCC300). Colon organoids propagated in the medium express colon-specific markers including the posterior hindgut marker CDX2, a-carbonic anydrase II (CA-II), a-carbonic anhydrase IV (CA-IV), and goblet cell markers Mucin-2 and Mucin-5B.

Application

Complete serum-free organoid media for the expansion and long-term 3D culture of human intestinal colon organoids.

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. How Do you Extract RNA/DNA from Organoids in Cultured in Matrigel?

    1 answer
    1. Traditional DNA/RNA isolation kits can be used to prepare genomic material for sequencing (RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, WGS, CHIP-seq etc). For some applications with large organoids, tissue specific DNA/RNA extraction kits are recommended. TRI Reagent (T9424) can be added to the dissociated organoids before RNA extraction and can be stored at -80 °C until future use.

  2. How do you stain organoids with antibodies?

    1 answer
    1. Organoids can be stained with antibodies for immunocytochemical (ICC)/Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis using either whole-mount or paraffin embedding/sectioning techniques. It is critical to use antibodies prequalified for organoid analysis.

  3. How are organoids cultured?

    1 answer
    1. Once isolated, organoids are cultured in specialized media embedded in a rich extracellular matrix (ECM) basement membrane extract hydrogel such as Growth Factor Reduced Matrigel. Media is replenished every other day and cells are passaged once per week (7-12 days) before cells become too large or necrotic. Cells can be passaged in either small clump fragments or as single cells using mechanical dissociation/enzyme-free passaging reagents. Depending on organoid type and confluency, split ratios of roughly 1:3-1:4 can be used when passaging organoids. For sensitive organoid types, ROCKi (Y27632) (SCM075) can be added during passaging to help in promoting cell viability.
