General description

Medium 199 is a combination of vitamins, amino acids, and other factors that were originally developed as a completely defined media formulation for the culture of primary explants. This medium, when properly supplemented has broad applicability, particularly for non-transformed cells. Medium 199 is widely used for vaccine production, in vitro cultivation of primary pancreatic explants, and lens tissues.

Application

Medium 199 has been used:
  • to culture rumen epithelial cells from yearling Speckle Park beef heifers
  • as a component of the maturation medium for the incubation of Cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) from bovine ovaries
  • as a component of the Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) mixture to maintain rat neonatal cardiac myocytes (NCM)

Reconstitution

Supplement with 0.1 g/L L-glutamine.

Cardiac progenitors are specified early in development and progressively differentiate and mature into fully functional cardiomyocytes. This process is controlled by an extensively studied transcriptional program. However, the regulatory events coordinating the progression of such program from development to maturation

Non-alcoholic fatty liver is the most common liver disease worldwide. Here, we show that the mitochondrial protein mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) protects against liver disease. Reduced Mfn2 expression was detected in liver biopsies from patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Moreover, reduced Mfn2
