Quantifying Pluripotent Cell Proliferation

The viability and viable cell count of ESCs and EpiLCs were calculated using Trypan blue (0.4%, Thermo Fisher) on a Countess II FL Automated Cell Counter (Thermo Fisher). For BrdU incorporation studies, cells were permeabilized, fixed, and stained using the BrdU Flow Kit (PerCP-Cy5.5 Mouse anti-BrdU, BD Biosciences) before analysis by flow cytometry on a BD Biosciences LSRII (UCLA BSCRC Flow Cytometry Core). Quantification of PGCLCs proliferation was performed using CellTrace Yellow (5μM, added at the induction, Thermo Fisher), which binds to intracellular amines after diffusing through cell membranes. The overall fluorescent signal, which gradually decreases as cell division occurs, reflects the number of cell divisions occurring and was measured on a BD Biosciences LSRII (UCLA BSCRC Flow Cytometry Core). The FlowJo software was used to calculate the percentage of induction, the number of cell divisions and generate the associated graphs (version 10, FlowJo, LLC).

For EDU assays, A431 cells were seeded at 1.0 x 105 cells per well in 6-well plates and treated with MAGE-A3 antibody at a 1:500 dilution mixed with antibody transport solution (ATS), which contained PBS, 50% glycerol, 0.02% sodium azide PH 7.3 and 0.1% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). At 72 hours post-treatment, the Click-IT EDU assay was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Flow cytometry was performed using BD Biosciences LSR II (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA), and data were analyzed using FloJo2 software (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA).

Multiparametric Analysis of BMDM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BMDMs were detached from culture dishes and incubated with annexin V-Pacific Blue (BioLegend) or annexin V-APC (BD biosciences) and Fixable Viability Dye eFluor 780 (eBiosicence) or 7-AAD (Invitrogen) for cell death analysis, with CM-H2DCFDA (Invitrogen) or CellROX deep red staining kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for analysis of reactive oxygen species, or with antibodies (CD11b [M1/70], and; F4/80 [BioLegend]) for differentiation analysis. Fluorescence was detected by flow cytometry (BD Biosciences LSR II), and data were analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star). Events were gated to exclude dead cells and debris, then gated on FITC wave length (CM-H2 DCFDA), APC (CellROX deep red), PE-Cy5 (F4/80), Pacific Blue (CDllb or annexin V), or APC-Cy7 (fixable viability dye) when compared to unstained control.

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.
