Morphological and Functional Characterization of DCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
When the MOI was 0.5, the morphology of DCs in different groups was observed under an optical microscope at 24 h. p. i. A positive control consisting of 100 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated DCs was included. LPS was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Missouri, USA). DCs were randomly selected and their lengths measured. The morphology index was calculated from 30 DCs randomly selected from five separate experiments, with six cells from each experiment (morphological index = longest axis/shortest axis) [40 (link)]. To determine endocytosis, cells were incubated with 1 mg/mL FITC-dextran (Sigma-Aldrich, Missouri, USA) with LPS as a positive control at 37℃ for 30 min [40 (link)] and detected via FACS. Phenotypes, activation, and migration of DCs were determined by FACS after incubating the cells with various antibodies, including PE-CD80, FITC-CD86, PE-CD40, FITC-MHC II, PerCP-Cy5.5-CD69, and PE-CCR7 (BD Biosciences, NY, USA).

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.
