Primary microglia were incubated with 100 μg/ml Texas red-labelled Dextran-70 (D1830, Thermo) or Dextran-40 (D1829, Thermo) for 15 min. Then the cells were chased with fresh medium immediately for confocal imaging at 552 nm by Leica SP8.

Measuring Endothelial Cell Permeability

Endothelial cell permeability was measured according to published protocols with minor modification [ 12 ]. Briefly, the human cerebral endothelial cells (5 × 10 4 /well) were seeded in the insert of a transwell (0.4 µm pore, 3413, Costar) for 5 days to generate an endothelial monolayer. Fluorescent-conjugated dextran (70 kDa, 0.5 mg/ml, D1830, Thermo Fischer Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA) was added into the inner chamber of the trans-well for 30 min. Fluorescent signals at the outer chamber (the bottom well) were measured at wavelengths of 595 and 615 nm using a plate reader (Packard, Packard Bioscience Company, Meriden, Connecticut, USA). The trans-endothelial permeability was calculated as (OD 30min -OD 0min ) experimental/(OD 30min -OD 0min ) control × 100% [ 13 ].

Dextran Uptake in Pericardial Nephrocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Adult female fly hearts were dissected in artificial Drosophila haemolymph and were incubated with 0.1 mg/ml 10-kDa dextran (AlexaFluor568, Invitrogen) or with 0.1 mg/ml 70-kDa dextran (Thermo Fisher Scientific, D1830). After 15 min of incubation, the hearts were washed three times with PBS. Pericardial nephrocytes were then immediately mounted for confocal imaging. Zen Software was used to measure the volume and signal of fluorescent dextran for the dextran quantification. At least three nephrocytes from three different flies were analyzed. Results were analyzed using a two-tailed unpaired Student's t-test (α=0.05).

Uptake of SOD1 Aggregates in Motor Neurons

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For flow cytometry experiments, the Islet1-GFP motor neuron reporter line was used34 (link). For all experiements, cells were incubated with 0.2 µM (monomer equivalent) of DyLight 650 labeled WT or SOD1H46R aggregates for the indicated times. Unless otherwise stated, before the analysis, the remaining inoculum was digested with 0.25% trypsin for 5 minutes, and the cells were collected for analysis by flow cytometry. Flow cytometry data capture and cell sorting were performed on a Mo-Flo cell sorter (Beckman Colter). Analysis was performed with the FlowJo software (Flowjo LLC.). Where indicated the DyLight 650 labeled WT or SOD1H46R aggregates were replaced with the fluid phase endocytosis marker dextran (~70,000 MW, D1830, ThermoFisher), a small hydrophilic polysaccharide, at a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL.

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.
