A novel method for expansion and differentiation of mouse tracheal epithelial cells in culture
Abstract Air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures of mouse tracheal epithelial cells (MTEC) are a well-established model to study airway epithelial cells, but current methods require large numbers of animals which is unwanted in view of the 3R principle and introduces variation. Moreover, stringent breed...

Abstract Air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures of mouse tracheal epithelial cells (MTEC) are a well-established model to study airway epithelial cells, but current methods require large numbers of animals which is unwanted in view of the 3R principle and introduces variation. Moreover, stringent breeding schemes are frequently needed to generate sufficient numbers of genetically modified animals. Current protocols do not incorporate expansion of MTEC, and therefore we developed a protocol to expand MTEC while maintaining their differentiation capacity. MTEC were isolated and expanded using the ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 in presence or absence of the γ-secretase inhibitor DAPT, a Notch pathway inhibitor. Whereas MTEC proliferated without DAPT, growth rate and cell morphology improved in presence of DAPT. ALI-induced differentiation of expanded MTEC resulted in an altered capacity of basal cells to differentiate into ciliated cells, whereas IL-13-induced goblet cell differentiation remained unaffected.
