MSCs (100 μL) with (1 × 105)/L density were planted in 96-well plates for induction culture. EdU (KeyGen Biotech. Co., Ltd. Nanjing China) solution was added into the culture wells and the final concentration of EdU was 10 μmol/L. After 37 °C incubation in the 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h MSCs were fixed for 15 min with 4% polyformaldehyde and stained by kFluor488-azide reagent for 15 min at room temperature. Subsequently 0.5 μg/mL Hoechst33342 were employed to re-dye the nuclei for 5 min at room temperature. The images were captured under a fluorescence microscope (Imager M2 Zeiss).

Quantifying DNA Replication via EdU

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
EdU incorporation was used to detect DNA replication as described previously.60 (link) Briefly, cells were cultured on coverslips coated with polylysine (20 μg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich) for 36 h in 24-well plates and subsequently incubated with EdU (Keygen Biotech, China) for 12 h, followed by fixation. The staining procEdUre was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Keygen Biotech, China). The coverslips were mounted with Gelmount containing Hoechst 33342 (Sigma-Aldrich). The quantitative results were expressed as the percentage of EdU positive cells out of the total number of cells (as labeled with Hoechst).

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.
