Cell lysates (20 µg) were run on NuPAGE 4–12% Bis–Tris protein gels (Invitrogen) using standard procedures, transferred to 0.2 µm polyvinylidene fluoride membranes and blocked in 5% milk in TBST (0.05% Tween 20 in Tris-buffered saline) for 1 h at room temperature before overnight incubation with primary antibodies. Membranes were washed thrice in TBST then incubated with a HRP conjugated secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature in TBST with 5% milk, and signals were detected by chemiluminescence (Clarity ECL, Biorad). Antibodies used in immunoblotting were as follows: rabbit polyclonal anti-Vinculin (Cell Signaling Technology, #13901), anti-Haspin (Abcam, ab21686, lot 156753), and anti-H3T3ph (B86349 (link)) with anti-rabbit IgG HRP (Cell Signaling Technology, #7074) and mouse monoclonal anti-VRK1 (Abcam, ab171933), anti-VRK2 (Santa Cruz, sc-365199), anti-H3S10ph (Millipore, 05-806), anti-α-tubulin (B-5-1-2, Sigma, T5168) and anti-MPM2 (Millipore, 05-368) with anti-mouse IgG HRP (Cell Signaling Technology, #7076).

PBMC Activation and Mitotic Arrest Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMCs were extracted from blood samples by centrifugation on a Ficoll cushion (Cytiva) for 30 min at 1800 rpm at room temperature (RT) and washed several times in phosPHAte-buffered saline (PBS). After 30 min of adhesion step at 37°C in RPMI 1640, nonadherent cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 in the presence of PHA (5 μg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich) to induce T lymphocyte proliferation. After 2 days, PHA was washed, and IL-2 (50 U/ml; STEMCELL Technologies) was added to the medium and replaced every 2 days for a time period of 5 days.
To study mitotic progression, PBMCs were synchronized in G2 by overnight incubation with 5 μM RO-3306 (Selleck Chemicals, S7747). Cell cycle arrest was released by washing cells twice in PBS, and 1 μM taxol (Selleck Chemicals, S1150) was subsequently added to arrest cells in mitosis. Flow cytometry analysis was performed on PBMCs fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA), permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100–PBS, and stained with anti-MPM2 (Millipore, 05-368). Cells were washed with PBS and incubated with a secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa Fluor 488 (Molecular Probes). Secondary antibody was washed with PBS, and DNA was stained with DAPI (2 mg/ml) for 30 min at 37°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.
