Immunolabeling GFAP in Cell Cultures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For immunolabeling with GFAP, the
cultures were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min. After washing
with PBS, the cells were permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich,
USA) in PBS for 5 min and for 10 min. It was followed by blocking
with 4% bovine serum albumin + 1% normal goat serum in 0.25% Triton
X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 1 h at room temperature and, subsequently,
in a mixture of the primary anti-GFAP rabbit antibody (G9269 Sigma-Aldrich,
USA) overnight at 4 °C. After washing in PBST 0.25% Triton X-100,
goat anti-rabbit conjugated with Texas red secondary antibodies applied
for 2 h at room temperature followed by DAPI staining for 5 min followed
by three washing with 0.1% Triton X-100.
Images were captured
using a citation 5 (Biotek, Agilent Technoloies, USA) fluorescence
microscope, and quantification was performed as reported earlier.57 (link),58 (link)

Utricles were dissected in ice-cold HBSS and fixed in 4% formaldehyde for 1 hr at room temperature. Whole inner ears were fixed for 18 hr at 4˚C, treated with 0.88 M sucrose for 18 hr at 4˚C, embedded in Tissue-Tek O.C.T. (Sakura), and frozen in liquid-nitrogen vapor. Wholemounted sensory epithelia or 10 μm frozen sections were then blocked with 3% normal donkey serum (Sigma-Aldrich) in 500 mM NaCl, 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich), and 20 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Bio-Rad) at pH 7.5. The primary antisera—goat anti-Sox2 (Santa Cruz), rabbit anti-Myo7A (Proteus Bioscience), rabbit anti-GFP (Torrey Pines Biolabs), mouse anti-Yap (Santa Cruz), and rabbit anti-Yap (Cell Signaling)—were reconstituted in blocking solution and applied overnight at 4˚C. For labeling with E-cadherin antibodies from clone DECMA-1 (Millipore) no Triton X-100 was used in the blocking solution.
Samples were washed with phosphate-buffered saline solution supplemented with 0.1% Tween 20 (Sigma-Aldrich), after which Alexa Fluor-labeled secondary antisera (Life Technologies) were applied in the same solution for 1 hr at room temperature.
Phalloidin conjugated to Alexa 633 was used to label filamentous actin and nuclei were stained with 3 μM DAPI.

After patch-clamp recordings, the recording electrode was carefully withdrawn, and the slices were fixed overnight at 4 ºC in 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate buffer solution (PBS). After thorough rinsing with PBS and permeabilization with 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich), the slices were incubated overnight with streptavidin-CY3 (1:50, 438,315, Invitrogen, USA) or streptavidin-CY5 (1:50, 438,315, Invitrogen, USA). Slices were then rinsed with PBS and mounted onto Fisher SuperFrost slides for visualization in an Olympus FV1000 confocal microscope. Low magnification (10×) was used to localize the recorded neurons, confirming that they were within the boundaries of the VTA. Slices that contained a labeled neuron were transferred back to a PBS solution and after additional permeabilization with 0.3% Triton X-100, they were incubated overnight with a mouse anti-TH antibody (1:100, MAB318, Millipore, Burlington, MA). Sections were rinsed with PBS and then incubated with secondary Donkey anti-Mouse Alexa Fluor 405 (1:100, ab175658, abcam, Cambridge, MA) for 1 hr at 30°C. Sections were rinsed with PBS and then mounted onto Fisher SuperFrost slides and visualized using higher magnification (40×) on an Olympus FV1000 confocal microscope.

Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min at room temperature (RT). Then, the cells were permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma, USA) for 5 min and blocked with 10% goat serum (Millipore, USA) diluted in 0.5% Triton X-100 and PBS for 30 min at RT. Primary antibodies were diluted into blocking liquid and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Then, cells were transferred into secondary antibodies and incubated for 1 h at RT in dark. Primary and secondary antibodies were listed in Table S5. The nucleus was stained with DAPI (Beyotime, China) for 5 min. Coverslips were mounted with a fluorescence quencher. Images were captured with IX73 Olympus inverted microscope (Olympus, Japan) or confocal microscope imager LSM710 or LSM800 (Zeiss, Germany), and image analyses were performed with software ZEN (Zeiss, Germany). Neuronal markers of TUJ1, MAP2, GABA, GFAP, SYP1, and PSD95, were measured by the fluorescence quantitative analysis using ImageJ software. 5–8 images were analyzed from each image.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Whole mount aortic arch, mediastinal adipose tissue, and thymus were fixed in Cytofix (BD Biosciences) 1:3 diluted in PBS overnight. The tissue block was washed in PBS for a day and blocked with 1% mouse serum (Milipore Sigma), 1% BSA (Milipore SIGMA), 0.3% TritonX-100 in PBS for 24h at room temperature while agitating. Subsequently, primary fluorescently conjugated antibodies were added 1:100 for 72h at 37°C in the dark while agitating. Hoechst (Thermo Scientific) was added at a concentration of 1:1000 for the final 2h. After staining, the whole mount tissue block was washed in PBS with 0.2% Triton X-100 and 0.5% 1-Thioglycerol (Milipore Sigma) overnight at room temperature. The buffer was replaced twice. Ce3D clearing solution (6 (link)) was freshly prepared as follows:
1ml contained 400μl (40%) N-methylacetamide, 1μl of Triton X-100 (0.1%), 5μl 1-Thioglycerol (0.5%) (all obtained from Milipore Sigma). For optimal solvation of all reagents, the buffer was shaken at 37°C for several hours. The whole mount tissue was removed from the washing buffer, carefully dried, and transferred into the clearing solution overnight at room temperature in the dark. The following day, the cleared whole mount tissue was mounted between two 1.5 borosilicate glass coverslips in clearing medium.

RNA Isolation from Cell Fractions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The protocol for RNA isolation from different cell fractions was adapted from Rio et al.81 Briefly, 0.6 × 106 cells (70% confluency) were trypsinized and collected by centrifugation. Cell pellets were washed twice with cold PBS, after which the cell pellet was resuspended in 0.5 mL of ice-cold cell disruption buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 1.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM KCl, and 10 mM dithiothreitol). After 10 min in cell disruption buffer on ice, the cells were transferred to a 1-mL glass Dounce Tissue Grinder (Wheaton) and homogenized using 15 strokes with a tight pestle. The crude cell lysate was transferred to a fresh tube and 5 μL of 10% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to a final concentration of 0.1% Triton X-100 and mixed by inversion five times. Cell nuclei were pelleted immediately by centrifuging the homogenate at 1,500 × g at 4°C for 5 min. The supernatant containing the cytoplasmic fractions was collected. RNA was isolated from both fractions using the Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit (Bio-Rad) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. All RNA preparations were quantified using a NanoVue spectrometer (GE Healthcare Europe). Approximately 500 ng of RNA of the cytoplasmic fractions and equal volumes of the corresponding nuclear fractions were used as a template for subsequent cDNA synthesis and RT-qPCR.

Immunofluorescence was performed in myoblast cell cultures at days 1, 3 and 7 of development in coverslips in 6-well plates. The myoblasts were washed with PBS and then fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes. The cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 10 minutes and incubated in blocking solution (1% glycine, 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA), 8% fetal bovine serum and 0.3% Triton X-100 - Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 1 hour, to prevent nonspecific binding. The myoblasts were incubated overnight at 4 °C with a rabbit anti-desmin primary antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) diluted in blocking solution (1:20). The cells were washed and then incubated for 2 hours at 4 °C with an anti-rabbit FITC secondary antibody (sc-2090 - Santa Cruz, USA) diluted in blocking solution (1:400). The myoblasts nuclei were counterstained with DAPI present in Vectashield® mounting medium (Vector Laboratories Inc., USA) and the images were acquired under a fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Japan).

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.
