PharmaOnco™ Leukemic Cell Culture Kit have been optimized for culture, expansion, and drug screening of human myeloid leukemia cells. This kit has been tested on chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) samples. The CD34+ CML cells typically expand ~65-fold; the CD34+ AML cells typically expand ~30-fold.

Reagent Preparation
Use sterile techniques to prepare PharmaOnco™ Leukemic Cell Culture Medium. The following example is for preparing 100 mL of medium. If preparing other volumes, adjust accordingly. 1. Thaw PharmaOnco™ CellExpander Hematopoietic Cells Medium II (SF) at room temperature (15 - 25°C) or overnight at 2 - 8°C. Mix thoroughly. 2. Thaw PharmaOnco™ CD34+ Expansion Supplement (10X) at room temperature (15 - 25°C) until just thawed. Mix thoroughly. 3. Add 10 mL of PharmaOnco™ CD34+ Expansion Supplement (10X) to 90 mL of PharmaOnco™ CellExpander Hematopoietic Cells Medium II (SF). Mix thoroughly. 4. Add 250 µg of UM-729 to 68 µL of fresh DMSO (final concentration 10 mM). 5. Prepare a 1 in 100 dilution of the 10 mM UM-729 stock solution by performing serial 1 in 10 dilutions. 6. Add 10 µL of diluted UM-729 per mL of medium to give a final concentration of 1.0 µM UM-729. Titration of UM-729 may be required to determine the optimal concentration for CD34+ cell expansion.
