After passage, the cells were seeded on cover slips which processed by 100 μg/mL poly-L-lysine and incubated with the proliferation marker 5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU; 10 μmol/L, Sigma-Aldrich Inc. St. Louis, MO, USA) for 4 h. Before staining with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and BrdU antibody (Sigma-Aldrich Inc. St. Louis, MO, USA) cells were fixed by 4% paraformaldehyde. Immunoreactive cells were visualized by fluorescence microscopy (Olympus, BX51, Japan) and a total of 5–7 randomly selected fields were captured. The minimal number of cells for counting was 200 in each condition, and data were collected from at least three independent experiments.

BrdU was injected into the pregnant mouse or newborn mouse (50 μg/g of body weight), 2 h prior to sacrificing the mouse. Samples were embedded as described previously. After hydration through graded ethanol, the sections were incubated in 0.1% PBST for 30 min and incubated in 2M HCl solution for 30 min under 37 °C, followed neutralization by boric acid for 10 min at RT. The sections were blocked with normal donkey serum at RT for 60 min before incubation in BrdU antibody (1:200, Sigma–Aldrich) overnight at 4 °C. Sections were washed in PBST three times. Second antibody donkey antimouse were diluted 1:500 for 60 min at RT.

For in vivo BrdU labeling, mice were injected intraperitoneally with 50 mg/kg of BrdU in PBS, pH 7.6, and were sacrificed 1.5 h later. Pancreata were isolated and fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in paraffin, and processed by routine procedures. BrdU incorporation was detected by immunohistochemistry using BrdU antibody (Sigma) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

BrdU was added at the concentration of 50 μmol/L for 1 h. Cells were then fixed, permeabilized, and incubated with the BrdU antibody (1:1000, Sigma-Aldrich St. Louis, MO) followed by TRITC-conjugated secondary antibody (1:200, Santa Cruz), and finally stained with DAPI. A total of 100 cells were counted and photographed using Fluorescence microscopy (Nikon Eclipse 600) and percentages of positive cells were presented (mean ± SD).

HUVEC Proliferation Assay by BrdU Incorporation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell proliferation of HUVECs was determined by BrdU incorporation assay. HUVECs were seeded in 6-well culture plate and incubated with medium containing BrdU (3 μg/mL) and drugs for 24 h. The cells were then fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for immunostaining with BrdU antibody (Sigma). Images were visualized and photographed using the EVOS Cell Imaging System (Thermo Fisher; Waltham, MA). Each treatment was performed in triplicate and at least 200 nuclei in each sample were counted for BrdU-positive cells.

DNA synthesis was measured by BrdU incorporation into PC9 and A549 cells to determine cell proliferation. PC9 and A549 cells (2 × 103 cells/well) were seeded in a 96-well culture plate. After 48 h of culture, 10 μM BrdU (BD Pharmingen, USA) was added and the cells were incubated for another 2 h. The medium was removed and co-cultured with BrdU antibody (Sigma-Aldrich) for 60 min, followed by incubation with tetramethylbenzidine (peroxidase substrate) for 30 min. The absorbance of each well was determined at 450 nm.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To study the role of DDX49 on the transcription of pre-ribosomal RNA, HeLa cells were seeded in the coverslips and transfected with control siRNA or DDX49 siRNA. After 48 h of transfection, the cells were pulse labeled with 2 mM of 5-fluorouridine (FUrd) (Sigma) for 20 min. After the incubation, the cells were fixed with 2% formaldehyde for 10 min and permeablized with 0.5% Triton X-100 for 10 min. The cells were then blocked with 1% BSA in PBST (PBS containing 0.1% Tween 20) for one hour and probed with BrdU antibody (Sigma, Cat. No. B8434) overnight at 4°C. After washing with PBS, the cells were incubated with FITC conjugated secondary antibody (Sigma, Cat. No. F2012) for 1 h at room temperature. After washing with PBS, the cells were treated with DAPI and embedded in Mowiol and images were taken in fluorescence microscope (Nikon Eclipse Ti) using 63× oil immersion objective.

To identify the proliferation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), mice were injected intraperitoneally with 200 mg/kg bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU; Sigma) at 4 and 2 h before killing (Armstrong et al. 2002 (link)). Brain sections from BrdU-injected mice were treated to permeabilize the tissue and denature the DNA, and were then incubated overnight with the following primary antibodies: rabbit polyclonal anti-NG2 antibody (1 : 200, Chemicon) and mouse monoclonal anti-BrdU antibody (1 : 50). The secondary antibodies (1 : 500 dilutions) used were Alexa 488-labeled goat anti-mouse antibodies for BrdU detection and Alexa 594-labeled goat anti-rabbit antibodies for NG2 detection. The sections were then washed and mounted to be imaged. For BrdU counting, three coronal sections per animal were analyzed with five randomly selected images within each area of interest (CC).The total numbers of all BrdU+ cells and BrdU+ NG2+ cells (oligodendrocyte progenitors) per field were counted.

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.
