832/3 cells 48 hrs post siRNA transfections were seeded at low density on HTB9 coated-slides (Hayes et al., 2017 (link)) and cultured overnight. Following treatments, cells were fixed in 10 % neutral-buffered formalin and incubated overnight with antibodies raised against insulin (Dako), chromogranin A (Abcam), chromogranin B (Abcam), and TGN46 (Abcam) as indicated. AlexaFluor conjugated secondary antibodies (Invitrogen) were used for detection. Cells were counterstained with DAPI (Sigma) and mounted using Fluorosave (Calbiochem). Images were captured using a Zeiss Axiophot microscope and analyzed by Fiji software.

Cells were seeded over glass coverslip in 24-wells plates and plasmid transfected the day after with Lipofectamine-2000. The following day cells were fixed with fresh 4% PFA pH8.0, permeabilized and blocked with PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100 and 10% heat-inactivated normal goat serum (PBSTH). Primary antibodies were incubated overnight at 4 °C at dilutions recommended by the providers in PBSTH. After washing in PBS, secondary fluorescently tagged antibodies were incubated for 1 h at room temperature in PBSTH. For non-permeabilized immunofluorescence with anti-HA antibodies the protocol of Briley et al. [100 (link)] was followed with the exception of the replacement of BSA for 10% heat-inactivated goat serum. The efficiencies of transfection and the total numbers of HA-positive cells in each experiment were determined per condition. Images were taken with an LSM700 confocal microscope (0.4 µm slices) at the University of Geneva’s Imaging Facility and processed using FIJI software. Primary antibodies used were anti-: HA-Tag (Cell Signaling 2367; 1/100), TGN46 (ABCAM ab50595, 1/200), cMYC (Santa Cruz Biotechnology sc-40; 1/100), CALRETICULIN (ABCAM ab2907;1/75), EEA1 (Cell Signaling No. 3288; 1/100), and LAMP1 (Cell Signaling No. 9091; 1/200).

Male mice were sacrificed and the tissues were immediately embedded in optimum cutting temperature compound (OCT, Tissue‐Tek) and cut into 8 μm sections using a microtome‐cryostat (LeicaCM1950, Wetzlar, Germany). Frozen sections were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min and washed in PBS three times. After being blocked with 5% BSA for 30 min, the sections were incubated with primary antibody (sp56, QED Bioscience, 55101; Lectin PNA, Alexa Fluor™ 488 Conjugate, Thermo Fisher Scientific, L21409; GM130, BD Bioscience, 610822; TGN46, Abcam, ab16059) at 4°C overnight. After being washed with PBS, the samples were incubated with secondary antibody, diluted with PBS for 1 h at 37°C, washed with PBS and stained with DAPI. The slides were then mounted and viewed. The images were acquired using an FV1000 confocal laser scanning microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, 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.
