Treated cells were fixed and permeabilized and then were blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA). Subsequently, activated NF-κB and ERK1/2 were detected by incubating the cells with anti-phospho-p65 or anti-phospho-ERK1/2 antibodies (Cell signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) as indicated by the manufacturer, followed by FITC-goat anti-rabbit IgG and FITC-goat anti-mouse IgG antibodies, respectively, (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham MA, USA). Slides were mounted with VectaShield (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA) covered with glass coverslips and analyzed using a Leica Confocal Microscope TCS SP8 (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany) and Leica LAS AF lite software. Maximal projections from about 30 sections of 0.4 μm are shown.

The effects of the drugs examined on differentiation of NSCs were examined by immunocytochemistry at 72 hours after drug exposure. NSCs were washed with PBS and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes. After washing with PBS, NSCs were blocked with PBS and 10% goat serum for 30 minutes at room temperature. NSCs were then incubated in PBS supplemented with 0.4% Triton-X-100 (Sigma) and 0.1% bovine serum albumin. NSCs were re-washed and treated with mouse anti-rat β-tubulin monoclonal primary antibody (1:400; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and rabbit anti-rat glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) monoclonal antibody (Sigma) overnight at 4°C. After washing with PBS, NSCs were incubated with FITC goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:100; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Rockford, IL, USA) and TRITC goat anti-mouse IgG (1:100; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) for 2 hours at room temperature in a wet box. Next, NSCs were incubated with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining solution. Fluorescence signal was observed using a confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss GmbH, Jena, Germany) and the percentage of differentiated cells was determined by flow cytometry (Beckman-Coulter), in accordance with our previously described protocol (Lu et al., 2012a, b; Li et al., 2014).

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.
