Step 1: endothelial 1
day 0 ~ 4
culture “spheroid” zebrafish cell in “LDF medium” for “4” days. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “4” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| EGS | 4.1 | % |
| FBS | 20 | % |
| ZEE | 0.05 | g/l |
| VEGF | 4.0e-5 | g/l |
| FGF | 1.0e-5 | g/l |
Ideally, “EC” should express “fli1”, “kdrl” at the end of culture.
Step 2: endothelial 2
day 4 ~ 8
culture “adherent” zebrafish cell in “LDF medium” for “4” days. For ECM, use “collagen type-I + Geltrex” at “N/A” “N/A”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table, and should be changed once in “4” days.
| concentration | unit | |
|---|---|---|
| EGS | 4.1 | % |
| FBS | 15 | % |
| ZEE | 0.05 | g/l |
| VEGF | 4.0e-5 | g/l |
| FGF | 1.0e-5 | g/l |
Ideally, “EC” should express “fli1”, “kdrl”, “vegfab”, “vegfaa”, “notch1a”, “notch1b” at the end of culture.
