In a 12-well plate, HEK293T cells at 40% to 50% confluence were transfected with the indicated plasmids (1,000 ng) for 24 h, then cells were washed twice with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature for 10 min. Following permeabilization with 0.1% Triton X-100 buffer for 5 min, cells were washed three times with PBS containing 0.1% BSA, then blocked with PBS containing 5% BSA for 1 h. The cells were incubated with the primary antibody overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with DyLight 488-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG and DyLight 568-conjugated anti-mouse IgG for 1 h. After three washes with PBS (containing 0.1% BSA), the cells were counterstained with Hoechst-33258 solution (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) for 5 min and then washed three more times with PBS. Finally, the cells were analyzed using a confocal laser scanning microscope (Leica TCS SP8 STED, Leica, Germany). The antibodies used are listed in Table 3.

Primary bat fibroblasts were grown in biological triplicates to 50% confluency in 24 well plates (Nunc), incubated with riboflavin (2 h; 200, 100, 50, 25, 12.5 and 0 μg ml−1 concentrations), then illuminated in the presence of ROS sensor CellROX Green Reagent (1 μM; Invitrogen) in a botanical climabox (30 min, light intensity 110 μmol of photons m−2 s−1). Cells were detached from cultivation wells with trypsin (0.1%, 200 μl per well, Sigma-Aldrich, USA). trypsinization was stopped with complete cultivation medium (200 μl) and Hoechst 33258 solution was added (1 μM, 10 min; Invitrogen). Intensity of CellROX Green Reagent fluorescence was quantified in cell population gated as viable singlets by fluorescence-activated cell sorter LSR II (Becton Dickinson, USA).

Bacterial FISH and Lectin Staining in Colon

FISH was performed as previously described by Molloy et al.110 (link) Colon fragments were fixed in methacarn for 3 h at 4°C and 5 µm coronal slices were obtained. Sections were incubated with 100 nM bacterial probes (GCTGCCTCCCGTAGGAGT; FITC-conjugated; Sigma), 20 mg/mL lectin-Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I (UEA-I; Tetramethyl-rhodamine-conjugated, Sigma), 10 mg/mL Hoechst 33,258 solution, and mounted with SlowFade Gold medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Images were acquired using a Zeiss LSM-780 confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany). Samples were imaged with a 63×/1.4NA oil-immersion objective at 3× with a 1024 3 1024 frame size.

Isolation and Culture of Dermal Papilla Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary DPCs were isolated from the follicle bulbs of C57BL/6N mice whiskers as previously described [81 (link),82 (link)]. The isolated DPCs were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Invitrogen Co., Carlsbad, CA, USA) with 100 units/mL each of penicillin A and streptomycin (Gibco BRL, Grand Island, NY, USA), and 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco BRL Grand Island, NY, USA). Cells were grown at 37 °C in fully humidified 5% CO2 (Forma 3111, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
The primary DPCs (5 × 103 or 3 × 103 cells/well) were seeded onto 24-well plates. PGA-4HGF (2% (v/v)) (4HGF:PGA:chitosan = 1:1:2, 1:1:4, or 1:1:8), PGA-control (PGA:chitosan = 1:2, 1:4, or 1:8), and 4HGF were treated to DPCs, and images of DPC proliferation (40× magnification) were taken after 96 h using a CCD camera (Point Grey Research Inc., Richmond, BC, Canada) and analyzed using the MetaMorph software (Universal Imaging, West Chester, PA, USA).
To quantify the number of DPCs, 1:1:4 PGA-4HGF (2% (v/v)), 1:4 PGA-control, and 4HGF were treated to DPCs with Hoechst 33258 solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The image of stained DPCs (100× magnification) was taken after 24 h (Nikon Eclipse Ti, Nikon Instruments Inc., Kobe, Japan) and then was analyzed using the Image J software (Wright Cell Imaging Facility, version, city, if any state, country).

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.
