Fitc conjugated cd44 antibody

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United States

The FITC-conjugated CD44 antibody is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and analysis of CD44 protein expression in biological samples. CD44 is a cell surface glycoprotein involved in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion, and migration. The FITC (Fluorescein Isothiocyanate) conjugation allows for the visualization and quantification of CD44-positive cells using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy techniques.

Antibodies against CD44 (Abcam, Cat #ab51037), c-Myc (Abcam, Cat #ab32072), CBFb (Abcam, Cat #ab133600), and GAPDH (ZSGB-BIO, Cat #TA-08) were obtained commercially. FITC-conjugated CD44 antibody (BD, Cat #560977) was purchased from BD Biosciences (Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Statins were purchased from Abcam (atorvastatin [ab145604], lovastatin [ab120614], and simvastatin [ab120505]) or Sigma-Aldrich (St Louis, MO, USA) and dissolved in DMSO as a 20 ~ 30 mM stock solution and stored at -20°C before use. Chemotherapeutic drugs (cyclophosphamide [CPA], cisplatin [DDP], doxorubicin [DOX], and paclitaxel [TXL] were obtained from the in-hospital pharmacy or Selleck (Shanghai, China). The photosensitizer polyhematoporphyrin (C34H38N4NaO5, Photosan-II [PS-II]) was purchased from Seehof Laboratorium F&E GmbH (Wesselburenerkoog, Germany).

Cell Sorting and Quantification via CD44

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For cell sorting, cells were dissociated using Accutase (Innovative Cell Technologies). For FACS, cells were resuspended in PBS containing 0.5% BSA, stained with FITC-conjugated CD44 (BD555478) or isotype control antibody (BD555742) from BD Biosciences and analysed on a BD FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences) using Cell Quest software. CD44-positive cells were sorted using a magnetic cell sorting system (Miltenyi Biotech). Cells were stained with CD44 Micro-Beads, passed through a LS magnetic column, then eluted from the column after removal from the magnet. CD44-positive cells were quantified by immunofluorescence using FITC-conjugated CD44 antibody (555478; BD Biosciences).

Prostate Cancer Stem Cells Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For PCSCs population analysis, prostate cancer cells were incubated with FITC-conjugated CD44 antibody (11-0441-82, BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA, USA) and PE-conjugated CD133 antibody (372804, Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) for 30 min at 37 °C. The CD44+/CD133+ subpopulation was quantified by flow cytometry and defined as PCSCs. Hyperactive aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity is closely related to the physiological properties of CSCs50 (link). PCSCs population analysis was also conducted by flow cytometry using the ALDEFLUOR Stem Cell Identification Kit (01700, STEMCELL Technologies, Vancouver, Canada) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The ALDH+ subpopulation was quantified and defined as PCSCs. As a specific inhibitor of ALDH activity, diethylaminobenzaldehyde (DEAB), was used to control for background fluorescence in the ALDH staining assay. For PCSCs sorting, the CD133+ subpopulation was isolated by the magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS) method using the CD133 MicroBead Kit (130-100-857, Miltenyi, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Isolation and Characterization of CD44+ Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For FACS, cells were dissociated using Accutase (Innovative Cell Technologies) and resuspended in PBS containing 0.5% BSA. Cells were stained with FITC-conjugated anti-CD44 (BD555478) or isotype control antibody (BD555742) and analyzed on a FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences) using Cell Quest software. CD44-positive cells were collected using a magnetic cell-sorting system (Miltenyi Biotech). Briefly, cells were dissociated using Accutase, stained with CD44-Micro Beads, and passed through a LS magnetic column that retains CD44-positive cells. CD44-positive cells were then eluted from the column after removal of the magnet and quantified by immunofluorescence using FITC-conjugated CD44 antibody (555478; BD Biosciences).

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.
