Frozen liver sections were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and incubated with 0.25% Triton X-100 at room temperature for 10 min. For nucleoprotein like Gli-1, mixture of glacial acetic acid and ethanol (volume/volume 1:3) was used to increase the permeability of primary antibodies into nuclear membrane. Sections were blocked with 5% BSA at room temperature for 30 min and incubated with primary antibodies in 1% BSA at 4 °C overnight. On the second day, sections were incubated with secondary antibody at 37 °C for 1 h, and nucleus was counter-stained with 4'6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (C1005; Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Cells in 5 randomly-selected fields at 630× under a confocal microscope (Nikon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) were used to quantify with Image J software for each section. Commercial sources of all antibodies used in this study are listed inTable S2.

Cells were seeded on coverslips, and incubated with 25 μM BrdU (B5002, Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) for 40 min, then washed with PBS and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 20 min. Subsequently, cells were treated with 1 M HCl and blocked with 10% goat serum for 1 h, and then incubated with BrdU antibody (ab6326, Abcam, MA, USA) overnight at 4 °C followed by Alexa FluorR 488 goat anti-rat IgG secondary antibody (H + L) (A-11006, Thermo Fisher, IL, USA) for 2 h at 25 °C. Nuclear was stained with 300 nM 4′, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (C1005, Beyotime, Shanghai, China) for 15 min at 25 °C. The percentage of BrdU-positive cells was calculated and 6 microscopic fields were counted (Nikon 80i, Nikon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan).

For labeling, decidual tissue sections were incubated with primary antibodies: mouse monoclonal anti-SGK1 antibodies (1:50, SC-28338, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), rabbit monoclonal anti-CD68 antibodies (1:500, 76437, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) overnight at 4°C. The slides of THP-1 cells before and after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; Sigma-Aldrich, P1585) pretreatment were incubated with anti-CD68 antibodies at 4°C overnight. Then, the sections of human decidual tissue and THP-1 macrophages were incubated with Alexa Fluor® 488 Donkey Anti-Rabbit IgG (1:400, ab150073, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and Alexa Fluor® 647 Donkey Anti-Mouse IgG (1:400, ab150107, Abcam, UK) secondary antibodies at 37°C for 1 h in the dark. The nuclei were stained with 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, C1005, Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) and washed using PBS (3 × 5 min). The slices were photographed and results were recorded using a laser confocal microscope (LSM 710, Zeiss, Wetzlar, Germany).

Exosome Quantification and Labeling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The concentration of exosomes was determined using the FD™ BCA Protein Quantitative Kit (FDbio Science, Hangzhou, China). Exosomes were labeled with PKH26 using a membrane labeling kit (Sigma-Aldrich) according to the manufacturer's instruction. Briefly, PKH26 dye was diluted, added to the 10 μg of exosomes in 20-μL DPBS, and then incubated for 5 min after mixing by gentle pipetting. The excess dye was bound with 100 μL of 10% exosome-depleted FBS in RPMI 1640 medium. The exosomes were then diluted to 12 mL with DPBS and pelleted by ultracentrifugation at 100,000 × g at 4°C for 1 h 10 min. The pellet was resuspended in 50 μL DPBS. The imDCs were incubated with 5 µg/mL of PKH26-labeled exosomes for 12 h and stained with 3,3'-dioctadecyloxacarbocyanine perchlorate (DiO; C1993S; Beyotime, Guangzhou, China) and 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, C1005; Beyotime) before being observed with a Benchtop High-Content Analysis System (CQ1; Yokogawa, Musashino, Japan).

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.
