RPMI 1640 Medium was originally developed to culture human leukemic cells in suspension and as a monolayer. Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 Medium has since been found suitable for a variety of mammalian cells, including HeLa, Jurkat, MCF-7, PC12, PBMC, astrocytes, and carcinomas. We offer a variety of RPMI 1640 Medium modifications for a range of cell culture applications. Find the right formulation using the media selector tool.
This RPMI is modified as follows:
| With | Without |
| • L-glutamine | • HEPES |
| • Phenol Red |
The complete formulation is available.
Using RPMI
RPMI 1640 Medium is unique from other media because it contains the reducing agent glutathione and high concentrations of vitamins. RPMI 1640 Medium contains biotin, vitamin B12, and PABA, which are not found in Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium or Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium. In addition, the vitamins inositol and choline are present in very high concentrations. RPMI 1640 Medium contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, RPMI 1640 Medium requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). RPMI 1640 Medium uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.0 g/L), and therefore requires a 5–10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

Abstract
Receptor-selective effects of endogenous RGS3 and RGS5 to regulate mitogen-activated protein kinase activation in rat vascular smooth muscle cells.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:12006602
Regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins compose a highly diverse protein family best known for inhibition of G protein signaling by enhancing GTP hydrolysis by Galpha subunits. Little is known about the function of endogenous RGS proteins. In this study, we used synthetic ribozymes targeted to RGS2, RGS3, RGS5,
Silencing of Transcription of the Human Luteinizing Hormone Receptor Gene by Histone Deacetylase-mSin3A Complex.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:12091390
'Modification of chromatin structure by histone acetylases and deacetylases is an important mechanism in modulation of eukaryotic gene transcription. The present study investigated regulation of the human luteinizing hormone receptor (hLHR) gene by histone deacetylases. Inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACs) by trichostatin A (TSA) increased hLHR promoter activity by 40-fold
Distinct Intracellular Signaling in Tumor Necrosis Factor-related Apoptosis-inducing Ligand- and CD95 Ligand-mediated Apoptosis.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:11980895
'Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a potent inducer of apoptosis in tumor cells but not in healthy cells. Similar to CD95 ligand (CD95L), TRAIL signaling requires ligand-receptor interaction; the downstream signaling molecules, such as Fas-associated death domain and caspase-8, also seem similar. Using cells stably expressing TRAIL and
Intercellular calcium signaling occurs between human osteoblasts and osteoclasts and requires activation of osteoclast P2X7 receptors.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:11756404
'Signaling between osteoblasts and osteoclasts is important in bone homeostasis. We previously showed that human osteoblasts propagate intercellular calcium signals via two mechanisms: autocrine activation of P2Y receptors, and gap junctional communication. In the current work we identified mechanically induced intercellular calcium signaling between osteoblasts and osteoclasts and among osteoclasts.
Single-cell fluorescence resonance energy transfer analysis demonstrates that caspase activation during apoptosis is a rapid process. Role of caspase-3.
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:11964393
'Activation of effector caspases is considered to be the final step in many apoptosis pathways. We transfected HeLa cells with a recombinant caspase substrate composed of cyan and yellow fluorescent protein and a linker peptide containing the caspase cleavage sequence DEVD, and we examined the cleavage kinetics at the single-cell
