Foxp3 fixation permeabilization solution

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Foxp3 Fixation/Permeabilization solution is a laboratory reagent used for the fixation and permeabilization of cells prior to intracellular staining and flow cytometry analysis. The solution is designed to allow for the detection of intracellular proteins, such as the transcription factor Foxp3, which is commonly used as a marker for regulatory T cells.

The percentage of Ki67-mediated cell proliferation as a function of local and global cell density was measured by a staining method using the Ki67 protocol using an Anti-human Ki67 FITC, Flow Cytometry Staining Buffer, and Foxp3 Fixation / Permeabilization solution (eBioscience) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. OVCAR-8 were seeded in 150 mm dishes in drug-free medium and incubated at 37° for 24hr to allow cells to attach. Three different global cell densities (7%, 20%, 33%) were seeded, each density in two different geometrical configurations. While the random formation was mixed very well, the circular formation was 15 dots containing 2/3 × 105, 2 × 105, and 10/3 × 105 cells per dot, respectively. The percentages of proliferation were then evaluated by FACS (BD LSRFortessa) every day for 4 days. Data from 10,000 gated events per sample were collected. Data were collected three times. For experiments with drug, after 24 hr with drug-free media, random and circular plates from each density were dosed with IC50 paclitaxel, 0.001 ± 6.20E-6 μM/L, and with IC50 × 4 paclitaxel. After 3 days of incubation with the drug, data were collected. See Table S3 for the results.

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.
