Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fluorescence microscopy analysis
was used to show the colocalization of CD71 and HFn-FITC within CD71-positive
C666-1 cells. Upon reaching 90% confluence, C666-1 cells were detached,
washed, and then fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min at 37 °C.
After washing and suspending in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), a
20 μL aliquot of the cell suspension was placed onto a slide,
allowed to sit for 20 min at room temperature, and then dried in an
oven at 37 °C. The cell smears were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton
X-100 for 15 min and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for
1 h at room temperature. The cells were then incubated with the following
reagents: 5 μg/mL of mouse IgG1 kappa isotype control (Invitrogen,
USA), 5 μg/mL of CD71 mouse monoclonal antibody (Invitrogen,
USA), and 10 μg/mL of HFn-FITC in 0.1% BSA at 4 °C overnight.
Subsequently, the cells were labeled with Alexa Fluor 488 and Alexa
Fluor 555 secondary goat antimouse antibody (Bioss, China) at a dilution
of 1:100 for 1 h at room temperature. After rinsing with PBS containing
0.05% tween 20 (Solarbio, China), an antifade mounting medium with
DAPI (Beyotime Biotechnology, China) was applied to stain the cell
nuclei for 10 min. Finally, the cell smears were examined using a
confocal laser scanning microscope with 405, 488, and 543 nm wavelengths
of laser (Zeiss LSM880, Carl Zeiss AG, Oberkochen, Germany).

Following different stimulations, we collected Ana-1 cells and adjusted the concentration to 105–2 × 105/mL. Then, we added 100 µL of cell suspension to a smear and slide centrifuge and centrifuged at 400g for 3 min to obtain cell smears. Consequently, we fixed the cells with 4% formaldehyde for 10 min and gently washed them thrice with PBS. Next, the smear was covered with 0.3% Triton X-100 drops for 10 min and blocked with Immunol Staining Blocking Buffer (Beyotime, P0102) for 15 min, followed by overnight incubation with primary antibody at 4 °C. The following day, the cells were washed thrice with PBS and incubated with fluorescent secondary antibody for 1 h in the dark at room temperature. The cells were washed thrice with PBS, and the nuclei were visualized by adding an Antifade Mounting Medium with DAPI (Beyotime, P0131).

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.
