Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In order to investigate the effects triggered by human FasL rc on hDPSCs at different concentrations, hDPSCs were processed for Western Blot analysis, as detailed above. The expression of FasL, Fas, Caspase 8 (Cell Signaling Technology, Trask Lane Danvers, MA, United States), c-FLIP (R&D systems, McKinley Place NE, Minneapolis, MN, United States), FADD (mouse anti-FADD ab; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, United States) was evaluated in hDPSCs after exposure to 0.1 ng/ml, 0.5 ng/ml FasL rc and to 0.5 ng/ml FasL rc + 500 ng/ml FasL inb for 24 h. To this regard, hDPSCs exposed to 1 μM Staurosporine were used as positive control of apoptosis. Densitometry analysis was performed as described earlier.
Furthermore, the expression of c-FLIP was also evaluated in hDPSCs after exposure to FasL rc 0.5 ng/ml and to FasL rc 0.5 ng/ml + FasL inb 500 ng/ml, respectively, by immunofluorescence analysis with rabbit anti-c-FLIP ab (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, United States). Immunolabeling intensity of c-FLIP expression in both experimental groups was evaluated by pseudocolor analysis: blue to white arrays the colors in a spectrum with blue assigned to a lower value than white (Carnevale et al., 2017 (link)).

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.
