High-throughput Imaging of Intracellular Parasites

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the L. donovani and T. cruzi bioassays, images of 4 fields/well, which correspond to a 45% coverage of the well, were acquired with the Operetta CLS confocal microscope (Perkin Elmer) at 20× magnification. The images were analysed with the ColumbusTM software (Perkin Elmer) and the number of mammalian cells and intracellular parasites (recognized by the DRAQ5TM nuclei staining) were quantified to estimate EC50 and CC50 values (expressed as mean ± one SD), respectively, from DRC plots fitted to a dose-response (variable slope) equation. GraphPad Prism6 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA) was used for the analysis of quantitative data.

Immunostaining of iPSC-derived Endothelial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
iPSCs were cultured in 6-well plates (Corning) and were differentiated into endothelial cells as described earlier. At day 3 cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) at room temperature for 20 min, permeabilized and immunostained following standard protocol using anti-Factor VIII antibody (Abcam, ab236284, 1:200) and fluorescently labeled secondary antibody (Invitrogen, Alexa fluor 546 goat anti-rabbit, 1:500). Additionally, nuclei were labeled with Hoechst 33342 (Invitrogen, H3570, 1:5000). Images of cells were automatically captured using an automated Operetta CLS confocal microscope (PerkinElmer) at 20× magnification. Subsequent image capturing was performed using the PerkinElmer Columbus Image Analysis System as previously described63 (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
