مستخلص: | Multiple techniques have been developed to isolate contractile smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from tissues with varying degrees of success. However, most of these approaches rely on obtaining fresh tissue, which poses logistical challenges. In the present study, we introduce a novel protocol for isolating contractile SMCs from cryopreserved smooth muscle (SM) tissue, thereby enhancing experimental efficiency. This protocol yields abundant viable, spindle-shaped, contractile SMCs that closely resemble those obtained from fresh samples. By analyzing the expression of contractile proteins, we demonstrate that both the isolated SMCs from cryopreserved tissue represent more accurately fresh SM tissue compared with cultured SMCs. Moreover, we demonstrate the importance of a brief incubation step of the tissue in culture medium before cell dissociation to achieve contractile SMCs. Finally, we provide a concise overview of our protocol optimization efforts, along with a summary of previously published methods, which could be valuable for the development of similar protocols for other species. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We report a successful protocol development for isolating contractile smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from cryopreserved tissue reducing the reliance on fresh tissues and providing a readily available source of contractile SMCs. Our findings suggest that SMCs isolated using our protocol maintain their phenotype better compared with cultured SMCs. This preservation of the cellular characteristics, including the expression of key contractile proteins, makes these cells more representative of fresh SM tissue. |
