Six 2-day-old spheroids per well were transferred in non-treated 96-well plates. Forty-eight hours after transfection with fluorescently labeled SSOs ([ON705]-F complexed with JetMessenger and S20-[ON705]-F), cells were trypsinized and resuspended in PBS. Single-cell suspensions were analyzed by flow cytometry on a Guava easyCyte HT Cytometer (Merck Millipore) using a 488-nm laser.

Following treatment with media or 5% obese follicular fluid for 24 hours, cumulus cells were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde in a 96-well plate and washed with flow buffer containing phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), 0.1% bovine serum albumin, and 0.5% sodium azide. Saponin was used for cell permeabilization and immunostaining was performed with 25 μg/mL goat anti-human/mouse gremlin antibody (R&D Systems). Incubation with secondary antibody was performed using 4 μg/mL Alexa Fluor-647 conjugated rabbit anti-goat antibody (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Incubations were performed at 4°C for 30 minutes and cells were washed two times. Controls included negative and isotype matched antibodies. Samples and analyses were performed using the Guava easyCyte HT cytometer (EMD Millipore). The flow cytometry gating strategy is demonstrated in Supplemental Figure 1.

The following antibodies were used for flow cytometric staining: anti-IAV NP (Abcam, ab20921), Mouse IgG1 isotype control (Abcam, ab91356). Intracellular staining was performed using the BD Cytofix/Cytoperm kit (Becton Dickinson, 554714), according to the manufacturers instructions. All samples were run on a Guava easyCyte HT cytometer (Millipore) and analyzed using Flowjo (version 10.4.2, TreeStar)

The experiment was performed as reported previously.2 (link),9 (link) Briefly, ipsilateral submandibular lymph nodes were harvested at 8 weeks after corneal transplantation. Cell suspension was blocked with Fc-blocking antibody (CD16/32; BD Bioscience, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and stained for donor type major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II I-A [b] alloantigen (BD Bioscience). Data were acquired and analyzed by a Guava easyCyte HT cytometer and InCyte 2.6 software (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA).

Example 9

Receptor surface expression levels on selected cell lines were determined using the QFIKIT (Dako K0078) employing flow cytometry, the results of which are shown in FIG. 18. Briefly, five populations of calibration beads presenting different numbers of mouse mAb molecules on their surfaces were used as a calibration standard. 1.5×105 cells/well were labeled with primary mouse anti-EGFR (ab187287, Abcam) and mouse anti-c-MET antibodies (MAB3582, R&D Systems) at saturating doses (5 μg/ml). Then, beads and cells were stained with secondary goat anti-mouse Fc F(ab′)2 FITC conjugate (10 μg/ml, Jackson Immuno Research) and were subjected to flow cytometry measurement using a Guava easyCyte HT cytometer (Millipore). Beads and cells were measured on the same day using the same settings. Based on a calibration line for fluorescence of beads versus bead surface density, antigen cell surface densities for c-MET and EGFR were calculated.

Cell Viability and Apoptosis Assays for K562 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the cell viability assays, K562S or K562R cells were seeded in 96-well plates and treated as indicated prior to transient transfection with expression constructs. After 72 h, cell viability was measured using WST reagent (DoGenBio). For the apoptosis assays, K562S or K562R cells were seeded in 6-well plates and treated as indicated. After 72 h, cells were stained with Annexin V-APC and propidium iodide using an Annexin V-APC apoptosis detection kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and analyzed on a Guava EasyCyte HT cytometer (Millipore).

Caspase-3/7 and Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cells were seeded in a 96-well plate with 104 cells/well, with a blank control well without cells. Then, Caspase-Glo (G8091, Promega) was added to each well, shaken for 30 min and incubated for 2 h at room temperature. The Caspase-Glo 3/7 assay releases a substrate of luciferase after being cleaved by caspase-3 and -7. The substrate of luciferase results in a luminescent signal that can be detected by a Synergy 2 Multi-Mode Reader (BioTek).
Annexin V-APC (88-8007-72, eBioscience) was used for cell staining in the cell apoptosis assay. According to the manufacturer’s instructions, the cells (≥5 × 105/well) were washed, digested and then resuspended using 200 µl 1× binding buffer. Then, 10 µl Annexin V-APC was added to 200 µl cell suspension and incubated in the dark at room temperature for 10–15 min. Cell apoptosis analysis was detected by a Guava easyCyte HT cytometer (Millipore).

BALF was collected by lavaging lungs with 1.0 mL of sterile PBS. Cells were isolated by centrifugation, and total cell counts were determined using a Guava easyCyte HT cytometer (Millipore) and analyzed using Flowjo (version 10.4.2, Ashland, OR: Becton, Dickinson and Company, Ashland, OR, USA). Differential cell counts were obtained via cytospins using Hema3-stained (Fisher Scientific) total cells, on a minimum of 300 cells/animal. The differential cell counts were normalized to the total cell counts [3 (link)].

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.
