Abstract This protocol describes the thawing, culturing, and cryopreservation of the human lung fibroblast cell line IMR90. The attached methods document is a formal version of the information included here. The attached worksheet is a fillable PDF that can be used to maintain cell passage records using this protocol. Please note: Deviation from the three-day passage cycle and cell plating density described here typically results in greater culture and experimental variability.Disclaimer: The contents of this article have been reviewed by the US Environmental Protection Agency and approved for publication and do not necessarily represent Agency policy.

Curcuma purpurascensBl., belonging to the Zingiberaceae family, is known astemu tisin Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In this study, the hydrodistilled dried ground rhizome oil was investigated for its chemical content and antiproliferative activity against selected human carcinoma cell lines (MCF7, Ca Ski, A549, HT29, and HCT116) and a normal human lung fibroblast cell line (MRC5). Results from GC-MS and GC-FID analysis of the rhizome oil oftemu tisshowed turmerone as the major component, followed by germacrone,ar-turmerone, germacrene-B, and curlone. The rhizome oil oftemu tisexhibited strong cytotoxicity against HT29 cells (IC50value of 4.9 ± 0.4 μg/mL), weak cytotoxicity against A549, Ca Ski, and HCT116 cells (with IC50values of 46.3 ± 0.7, 32.5 ± 1.1, and 35.0 ± 0.3 μg/mL, resp.), and no inhibitory effect against MCF7 cells. It exhibited mild cytotoxicity against a noncancerous human lung fibroblast cell line (MRC5), with an IC50value of 25.2 ± 2.7 μg/mL. This is the first report on the chemical composition of this rhizome’s oil and its selective antiproliferative effect on HT29. The obtained data provided a basis for further investigation of the mode of cell death.

Abstract NOTE: A PDF methods document is attached in the supplementary materials.SCOPE OF APPLICATION (LIMITATIONS)This method describes the culture and differentiation of primary human tracheobronchial epithelial cells (pHBEC). Cells used for this method can be obtained by brush biopsy during clinical bronchoscopy or purchased commercially. This method replaces the previous version described in (Dailey and McCullough, 2021a; b).
