Dextran Uptake Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For dextran uptake assays, cells were washed with PBS two times and 1mg/ml 10kDa Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated dextran (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added either from apical or basolateral membrane. The filters were incubated for 30 min at 37 °C, and washed with PBS and lysed with RIPA buffer. Dextran uptake was assayed by microplate reader.

Evaluating Endosomal and Lysosomal Integrity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For endosomal membrane integrity, H1-HeLa cells were inoculated with equal amounts (~1000 HAV GEs per cell) of gradient-purified HAV or eHAV, or 10 plaque-forming units (PFU) per cell of human rhinovirus-14 (HRV-14) (McKnight and Lemon, 1996 (link)) in supplemented DMEM presence of α-sarcin or Restrictocin A previously reconstituted in sterile ultrapure water and incubated for 6 hr at 37˚C (for HAV) or 33˚C (for HRV-14). Cells were then incubated with supplemented DMEM containing 20 µg.ml−1 puromycin for 20 min, rinsed twice with PBS, and total protein lysates were harvested as described above. Specific puromycin incorporation was validated by pre-treating cells with cycloheximide for 30 min prior to the puromycin pulse (Figure 4—figure supplement 1). For lysosomal membrane integrity analysis, Huh-7.5 cells seeded in 8-well chamber slides were loaded with 100 µg.ml−1 anionic-lysine fixable Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated dextran (10 kDa) (Thermo Fisher Scientific, #D22913) diluted in supplemented DMEM for 16 hr at 37˚C. Cells were rinsed with PBS, inoculated with purified HAV or eHAV (1000 HAV GEs per cell), and fixed as indicated.

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.
