THP-1 Cell Surface Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
THP-1 cells were harvested, washed in PBS, and fixed with paraformaldehyde. With the exception of experiments to investigate lysosomal activity, no additional permeabilization was performed so as to allow the analysis of only the proteins expressed on the cell surface. To prevent nonspecific antibody binding, cells were blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 h at room temperature. After incubation with anti-TLR4 (sc-13593; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) or anti-Rac1 (03589; EMD Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) antibody (dilution, 1:200) or LysoTracker (dilution, 1:1,000; ENZ-51005; Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, NY, USA), THP-1 cells were stained with Alexa Fluor 488- or 594-conjugated secondary antibodies (dilution, 1:1,000; Enzo Life Sciences) and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The stained cells were observed under a Zeiss LSM800 confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

Flow Cytometric Detection of P2Y6 Receptor

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To detect P2Y6 receptor on membrane surfaces by FACS, the cells were fixed using 4% paraformaldehyde (Sigma-Aldrich) without permeabilization and were incubated and blocked using PBS containing 1% BSA for 30 min at room temperature. Next, the cells were labeled with the rabbit anti-P2Y6 receptor antibody (1:200; Alomone Labs) for 2 h at room temperature, followed by the Alexa Flour 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody (Invitrogen) for 1 h at room temperature. Lysosomal activity was determined using Lyso-Tracker (Enzo Life Sciences) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The cells for flow cytometric analysis were washed three times with FACS buffer (PBS containing 1% FBS) and then analyzed using a FACSVerse flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). FlowJo software (Tree Star, OR, USA) was used for the data processing.

Detecting P2Y6 Receptor Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To detect the P2Y6 receptor on membrane surfaces, the cells were fixed using 4% paraformaldehyde (Sigma-Aldrich) and were incubated and blocked using PBS containing 1% BSA for 30 min at room temperature. Next, the cells were labeled with the rabbit anti-P2Y6 receptor antibody (1:200, APR-011; Alomone Labs, Jerusalem, Israel) for 2 h at room temperature, followed by the Alexa Flour 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody (Invitrogen) for 1 h at room temperature. Lysosomal activity was determined using Lyso-Tracker (ENZ-51005, Enzo Life Sciences) according to the manufacturer's protocol. To determine the intracellular trafficking of the P2Y6 receptor, THP-1 cells were co-stained with anti-P2Y6 receptor and anti-Rab5 antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) for early endosome marker. Finally, the cells were washed with 1% fetal bovine serum/PBS and mounted with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole-containing fluorescence microscopy mounting medium (Invitrogen). The samples for confocal analysis were analyzed using a laser scanning confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).

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.
