Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were cultured with various concentrations of daunorubicin, tacrolimus, MPA and prednisolone (Sigma) and apoptosis detected by intracellular staining for activated caspase 3 (BD Pharmingen, Wokingham, UK) or by annexin V (Miltenyi Biotec) surface staining after 24 or 48 h, respectively. annexin V staining was performed for 15 min at room temperature in annexin V binding buffer (Miltenyi Biotec); 50 M Verapamil (Sigma) was added at the beginning of culture. Percentages expressing annexin V at each concentration were background subtracted for annexin V expression in media alone.

Quantifying Peritoneal Macrophage Subsets

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two methods were used to quantify peritoneal macrophages. Total peritoneal cells were counted in a hemacytometer or using an automated cell counter. Then this number was multiplied by the percent of macrophages stained for CD115 (AFS98; eBioscience), ICAM-2 (3C4; BioLegend) and F4/80 (BM8, eBioscience) by flow cytometry. These antibodies allow us to distinguish the minor and major peritoneal macrophage populations (Gautier et al., 2012 (link)), with only the major macrophage population expressing ICAM-2 (Gautier et al., 2012 (link)). Alternatively, peritoneal cells obtained by lavage were incubated with FITC-conjugated anti–ICAM-2 mAb, and then a manual count of the fraction of ICAM-2+ cells was made and multiplied by the total number of peritoneal cells. Both methods yielded similar results. Other reagents and mAbs used in flow cytometry were Annexin V (Miltenyi Biotec) and antibodies against Ki67 (B56; BD), active caspase 3 (C92-605; BD), pH3 (D2C8; Cell Signaling technology), TIMD4 (RMT4-54; eBioscience), CD206 (MR5D3; Serotec), LYVE-1 (Abcam), Siglec F (E50-2440; BD), CD11b (M1/70; eBioscience), CD5 (53–7.3; BD), B220 (RA3-6B2; eBioscience), ly 6C/G (RB6-8C5; eBioscience), Ly6-G (1A8; BD), TCRb (H57-597; eBioscience), MHC-II (M5/114.15.2; eBioscience), and MARCO (ED31; Serotec).

Apoptosis-Mediated TREM2 Activation in Neurodegeneration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phosphatidylserine (PS) expression on the external surface of apoptotic SH-SY5Y cells was used as a ligand for TREM2 as we previously reported10 (link). Briefly, SH-SY5Y cells (a kind gift from Prof R de Silva, University College London, Queen Square Institute of Neurology) were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS (Life Technologies) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Life Technologies). To induce apoptosis, SH-SY5Y cells were heat shocked at 45 °C for 2 h, before resuspension in iPS-Mg medium. Cell death and exposure of cell membrane PS was confirmed by flow cytometry using FITC-conjugated Annexin-V (Miltenyi Biotec) and propidium iodide staining. Apoptotic cells (“PS+ cells”) were added to iPS-Mg at a ratio of 2:1 PS+ cells:iPS-Mg for either 5 min (signalling assays) or O/N (inflammasome assays). Exposure of iPS-Mg to PS+ cells was blocked by preincubation of PS+ cells for 1 h with 5 µg recombinant Annexin V (268–10,001, RayBiotech). SYK signalling was blocked by preincubation of iPS-Mg for 1 h with 10 µM BAY61-3605 prior to addition of PS+ cells.

RB cells (1 × 106 cells) were treated with inhibitors for 48 h and stained with Annexin V and Propidium Iodide (PI) as per manufacturer’s instructions (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Stained cells were immediately analyzed on a cytoFLEX flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, Brea, CA, USA).

Intestinal Organoid Proliferation and Apoptosis after Viral Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Proliferation in intestinal organoids was measured by EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) incorporation after H9N2 virus infection. In brief, EdU (1:2000) was pre-incubated in ENR-medium for 2 h. The nuclei were stained by Hoechst33342. Cells were then detected with a fluorescence microscope.
Apoptotic cells were detected by Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) staining assay (Miltenyi Biotec, Shanghai, China) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Briefly, organoids were digested with accutase (Millipore) for 25 min at 37 °C and single-cell suspensions were obtained. Cells were harvested and washed with PBS. Following this, the cells were incubated with 5 μL Annexin V-FITC and 5 μL PI-FL3 for 10 min and detected with FACS Calibur (Becton, Dickinson and Company, USA). Single cell was gated using FSC and SSC parameters and apoptotic cells of organoids were analyzed at FL-1 and FL-3 by FACS.

Human EPCs (CD34+) following hyperglycemia (20 mmol/L glucose) exposure were stained with propidium iodide (Miltenyi Biotec, 130‐093‐233) and annexin V (Miltenyi Biotec, 130‐097‐928) along with suggested isotype control using Miltenyi Biotec standard protocols. Both human EPCs (CD34+) and HUVECs were stained with propidium iodide. The cells were analyzed poststaining using BD FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences) cell analyzer.

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.
