BrdU Proliferation Assay for Kasumi Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 3×103 transfected Kasumi-3 and Kasumi-6 cells were transferred to each well of a 96-well plate in 0.1 ml medium, and cultured at 37°C for 48 h before the addition of BrdU. The experiment was conducted using the BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay (cat. no. QIA58; Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Then, cells were cultured with 20 µl/well diluted BrdU reagent (10 mM) for 6 h, fixed with Fixing solution and incubated for 30 min. After fixation, the cells were incubated for another 48 h with peroxidase-coupled anti-BrdU-antibody (supplied by the kit), followed by washing twice with ice-cold PBS. After incubation with peroxidase substrate for 3 h, OD values were measured at 450 nm. For the represent images, the anti-Brdu (1:500; cat. no. ab6362; Abcam) was used as primary antibody, and Goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor® 546 (1:2,000; cat. no. A11010; Invitrogen; Therno Fisher4 Scientific, Inc.) was used as the secondary antibody. The detailed method has been previously published (21 (link)).

HUtMEC were cultured on glass slides, fixed with cold acetone, and blocked by 5% FBS in PBST. They were incubated with anti-Ang-2 (rabbit polyclonal; proteintech TM; cat. no. 24613-1-AP) and anti-VE-cadherin (rabbit polyclonal, Cell Signaling; cat. no. 2500) at 4°C. Cells were incubated with anti-rabbit IgG conjugated with Alexa Fluor®546 (Abcam; cat. no. ab60317) and anti-human Ig G conjugated with Alexa Fluor®488 (Abcam; cat. no. ab150129). Nuclei were stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole phenylindole (Enzo; cat. no. BML-AP402). Afterward, the samples were mounted in fluorescent mounting medium (DAKO; cat. no. S3023) and immunofluorescent images were acquired using a Zeiss LSM510 confocal fluorescence microscope (Carl Zeiss).

For immunofluorescence staining of cells, primary antibodies used were: anti-MyHC MF-20 (Development Studies Hybridoma Bank); anti-Dys MANDRA17 (Development Studies Hybridoma Bank); anti-GFP (Ab-13970 Abcam); Secondary antibodies used were: anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 546 and anti-chicken Alexa Fluor 488 (Abcam). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (D9542 Sigma).
For immunofluorescence staining of injected and not injected TA muscles. Tissues were dissected, frozen in liquid nitrogen-cooled isopentane and cut on cryostat (LEICA CM 1850, Leica, Germany) into transverse and longitudinal cryostat sections. Primary antibodies used, in addition to those mentioned above, were: anti-dystrophin DMD (Sigma), anti α-sarcoglycan (HPA 007537 Atlas antibodies), anti-nNOS (PA3-032A R&D System) and anti-LAM A/C (MA3-1000 Invitrogen). Secondary antibodies used were: anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488, anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 546 (Abcam). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (D9542 Sigma).

HUVECs immune characterization was carried out using CD31 antibody after cell culture fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde and blocking with 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum, Gibco) in PBS solution. Primary antibody CD31 (1:50 dilution, mouse antibody, Dako, Santa Clara, CA, USA) in block solution was incubated overnight. Secondary antibody Alexa Fluor 546 (1:500 dilution, goat anti-mouse, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom) was added and incubated for 30 min. Images were obtained using a fluorescence microscope (LEICA DM IL LED with EC3 camera system) and a confocal laser scanning microscope (LSM 700/ Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

The specimens were embedded in paraffin, and longitudinal, 4-mm thick sections were cut on a microtome as abovementioned. The secondary antibody for visualization of BMP-7 was conjugated to Alexa Fluor ® 488 (green; Abcam, Tokyo, Japan). The SCs markers, rabbit anti-S100 (Dako Japan) and rabbit anti-p75NTR (Nippon Chemicon), were visualized with secondary antibodies conjugated to Alexa Fluor ® 546 (red; Abcam).

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.
