Subconfluent cells were loaded with 0.4 mg/mL AlexaFluor 488-dextran (10 kDa) for 20 min and washed twice with PBS. The samples for the analysis of AlexaFluor 488-dextran uptake were then fixed with 4% PFA for 20 min, whereas the parallel samples for the analysis of AlexaFluor 488-dextran degradation were incubated in complete medium for additional 4 h before fixation. Images were acquired using a Zeiss LSM700 microscope with EC Plan-Apochromat 63×/1.40 Oil DIC M27 objective. Fluorescence intensities were determined by open source Image J software.

All microscopy images were acquired via Zen software on a Zeiss 700 LSM mounted on an Axio Observer.Z1 using a Plan-Apochromat 20×/0.8 M27 or an EC Plan-Apochromat 63×/1.40 Oil DIC M27 objective (Carl Zeiss Microscopy, Thornwood, NY) or via LAS AF SPE Core software on a Leica TCS SPE mounted on a Leica DM2500 using an ACS APO 20×/0.60 IMM CORR-/D or an ACS APO 63×/1.30 Oil CS 0.17/E objective (Leica Microsystems). Maximum projections, image rotation, and cropping were performed in ImageJ (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD; Abramoff et al., 2004 ). Figure panels were assembled in Illustrator (Adobe, San Jose, CA). To aid in visualization, Figures 1,B–C′ and E–G′; 3, A–F; 5, B–G; 7, A–B′′ and D–D′′; and 9, A–C′′′; and Supplemental Movie S1, A–D, were brightened by 30% using Photoshop (Adobe).

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.
