Chemotaxis Assay for Macrophage Migration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Migration assays were performed as previously described54 . Freshly isolated BMDMs (100,000 cells) were seeded in the top chamber of a 24-well PET membrane (8 mm pore size). Cells translocated to the lower chamber in response to exposure in the lower chamber of vehicle or 100 ng/ml CX3CL1 (472-FF; R&D) in the presence or absence of either an AKT inhibitor (MK-2206; 10 μM, Cayman), PI3K inhibitor (BEZ235; 10 μM, Cayman), EGFR inhibitor (erlotinib, 10 μM, LC laboratories) or NF-κB inhibitor (JSH23, 30 μM, Sigma-Aldrich) for 3 h. Cells in the upper chamber were removed with a cotton swab, and the filters were fixed with 70% ethanol and stained with 2% crystal violet. Filters were photographed on a Leica DMi1 microscope and total cell number was counted.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Canertinib (CI-1033, Pfizer Pharmaceuticals) and Erlotinib (Selleck Chemicals) were kindly provided by Dr. Mukesh Nyati at University of Michigan. Perifosine (Sigma), MK2206 (Selleck Chemicals) and BEZ235 (Cayman Chemical) were kindly provided by Dr. Alnawaz Rehemtulla at University of Michigan. For drug treatment, we used CI-1033 at 2 μM; Erlotinib at 3 μM, 6 μM and 10 μM, MK2206 at 0.25 μM, 0.5 μM and 1 μM; Perifosine at 1 μM, 3 μM and 5 μM; and BEZ235 at 25 nM, 125 nM and 250 nM. Above drugs were used to treat H1299 cells in tumor sphere formation assay for 4 days. Individualized drug concentrations were set according to cellular response to each drug for a common period of time.

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.
