125I-UdR was either purchased from Perkin Elmer (Skovlunde, Denmark) or prepared essentially as described by Wang et al. 17 (link) using trimethylstannyl-2'-deoxyuridine as precursor. The final product was sterilized by passing the eluate through a 0.22 µm sterile filter into a capped vial. MTX (Sigma-Aldrich, Copenhagen, Denmark) and TMZ (Sigma-Aldrich) was prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. MTX (1 mM) and TMZ (129 mM) were stored at -20 °C and diluted in fresh medium for in vitro studies right before each use.
The amino-acid tracer [11C]methylaminoisobutyric acid ([11C]MeAIB) was prepared as described previously 18 .

Radiolabeling and Targeting of Monoclonal Antibodies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To target the cytoplasm, 125I was coupled to the internalizing mouse m225 mAb. 125I-labeled m225 mAb is internalized within the cytoplasm after binding to its receptor (HER1). For cell surface localization, 125I was coupled to the noninternalizing mouse IgG1k mAb 35A7. For the CEA Gold 2 epitope (50 (link)), 35A7 is specific. The nonspecific PX antibody was used as a control (irrelevant antibody). PX is an IgG1 mAb purified from mouse myeloma P3-X63 cells (30 (link)). The three mAbs were obtained from mouse hybridoma ascites fluids by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by ion exchange chromatography on DE52 cellulose (Whatman, Balston, United Kingdom).
Antibody radiolabeling was performed according to the IODO-GEN (1,3,4,6-tetrachloro-3α, 6α-diphenylglycoluryl) (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) method (50 (link)). 125I-mAb-specific activity was 370 MBq/mg of protein, and immunoreactivity was 60%–95%. All experiments used 125I-mAb activities ≤4 MBq/ml. 125I was targeted to the nucleus using the thymidine base analogue 125I-UdR at a specific activity of 81.4 TBq/mmol. 125I-UdR was purchased from PerkinElmer (Waltham, MA).

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.
