The spleen of immunized mice was separated on day 7 after the final immunization and embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound (SAKURA). The tissues were frozen with liquid nitrogen before sectioning (7 µm) on a cryostat. After being fixed in cold acetone and blocked with 5% FBS in PBS at RT for 1 h, the sections were incubated with Biotinylated PNA (VECTOR, 1:100) overnight at 4°C. DyLight 488 Streptavidin (BioLegend, 1:100) was used as the secondary antibody at RT for 1 h followed with Alexa Fluor647-conjugated anti-mouse CD45R (BioLegend, 1:150) at RT for 1 h. After staining, the sections were scanned under a Pannoramic SCAN instrument (3DHISTECH, Hungary).

Biotin-Functionalized Microparticles for Cell Targeting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess the functionalization with thiol-PEG-biotin, the modified MeLam microparticles were incubated with DyLight 488 Streptavidin (BioLegend, USA) prepared at a concentration of 10μg/ml in PBS for 15 minutes. Subsequently the microparticles were washed with PBS and observed under fluorescence microscopy (Axio Imager M2, Zeiss, Germany). Polymeric microparticles with covalently attached biotin are herein proposed as versatile targeting vehicles for multiple biomolecules; in this work the microparticles were functionalized with the tripeptide Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) to increase cell adhesion. Briefly, biotinylated microparticles were incubated with purified streptavidin (Promega, USA) (25μg/ml) in PBS under gently agitation for 15min at room temperature. A washing step was then performed to remove unbound streptavidin. Finally, the MeLam microparticles were incubated with biotinylated RGD (25 μg/mL) (AnaSpec, USA) in PBS under gently agitation for 15min at room temperature. The MeLam microparticles were finally washed with PBS to remove unbound biotinylated RGD.

The spleens from BALB/c mice were separated one week after the final immunization and embedded in Optimal Cutting Temperature (OCT) Compound (SAKURA, USA). The tissues were frozen at -80°C before sectioning (8 μm) on a Cryostat (Leica, Germany). After being fixed in cold acetone and blocked with 1% BSA in PBS at room temperature for 1 h, the sections were incubated with Biotinylated Peanut Agglutinin (PNA, 1 : 100 dilution, VECTOR, USA) at 4°C overnight. DyLight™ 488 Streptavidin (1 : 100 dilution, BioLegend, USA) was used as the secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. At last, Alexa Fluor® 647-conjugated anti-mouse CD45R (1 : 150 dilution, Clone RA3-6B2, BioLegend, USA) was incubated at room temperature for 1 h. The sections were scanned under a Pannoramic SCAN instrument (3DHISTECH, Hungary). For quantification the area of GCs, spleen sections of three mice from each group were analyzed by ImageJ software.

After fixing in 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min, cells were treated with 0.2% Triton X-100 for 10 min at room temperature, followed by blocking with goat serum at 37 °C for 60 min. The cells were then immunostained with the appropriate antibody or lectin. The following primary antibodies or lectins were used: anti-GALNT1 (1:200; Abnova, CAT#H00002589-M10), anti-β-catenin (1:200; Proteintech, CAT#51067), anti-GM130 (1:200; Proteintech, CAT#11308-1-AP-150), anti-PDI (1:200; Cell Signaling Technology, CAT# 3501T), and VVA (1:200; Vector Laboratories, CAT# B-1235-2). Alexa Fluor 546-conjugated donkey anti‐rabbit IgG (1:1000, Thermo Fisher, CAT#A11003), DyLight™ 488 streptavidin (1:200, BioLegend, CAT# 405218), and Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated donkey anti-mouse IgG (1:1000, Thermo Fisher, CAT#A11001) were used as secondary antibodies. DAPI nucleic acid stain (Abcam, CAT# ab104139) was used to counterstain the sections. An inverted microscope was used to capture the images.

Biotinylation was performed using a Pierce Cell Surface Protein Isolation Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). MEF cells plated on 35 mm glass-bottom plates (MatTEK) were washed twice with ice cold PBS2+/BSA (PBS supplemented with 1.5 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM CaCl2, 0.18% (w/v) glucose, 0.2% (w/v) BSA). EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-SS-Biotin was diluted in PBS2+/BSA (0.25 mg/ml) and added onto MEF cells for 30 min on a rotator in 4°C.

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.
