Lipid Visualization in Hepatocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lipid accumulation in hepatocytes grown in fatty-acid-supplemented medium was visualized using coherent anti-stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy. Images were recorded every 24 hr by tuning the Stokes (1,064 nm) and pump (817 nm) beams to excite the Raman peak at 2,845 cm−1 (663 nm) corresponding to the CH2 stretch in lipid molecules. The microscopy system was configured to detect both forward- and epi-CARS signals. All images were averaged over 64 frames. Overlays of forward-(green) and epi-CARS (red) signals were generated using raw images (LAS X Software v.3.0.2, Leica Microsystems).

Whole-Kidney Imaging with Confocal Microscopy

Single plane tile‐imaging of the entire C57BL/6 kidney sections was conducted with a Leica TCS SP8 confocal/2P microscope (Leica Microsystems Inc.) available at the ICBM imaging facility, using a Leica HC PL APO CS2 20×/0.75IMM objective lens adjusted to oil immersion. Confocal images (12bit) were acquired at 1024 × 1024 pixels, 400 Hz, 1 AU, bidirectional X scan, 1.2 zoom, line averaging of 2, and using a sequential laser illumination mode set up to three sequences: (1) Nuclei/DAPI (405 nm laser illumination, PMT1 adjusted to collect 415–485 nm emission), (2) MAP3K7/Alexa Fluor 488 (488 nm laser illumination, PMT2 adjusted to collect 500–500 nm emission), (3) ICs/Cyanin‐3 (552 nm laser illumination, PMT3 adjusted to collect 560–630 nm emission light). The hardware scanning set up was kept constant for all samples. Mosaic images were generated using automatic stitching in Leica LAS X software v.3.5.7.

Single plane tile-imaging of the entire C57BL/6 kidney sections was conducted with a Leica TCS SP8 confocal/2P microscope (Leica Microsystems, Inc., Buffalo Grove, IL) available at the ICBM imaging facility (Indianapolis, IN), using a Leica HC PL APO CS2 20x/0.75IMM objective lens adjusted to oil immersion. Confocal images (12 bit) were acquired at 1024×1024 pixels, 400Hz, 1 AU, bidirectional X scan, 1.2 zoom, line averaging of 2, and using a sequential laser illumination mode set up to 3 sequences: 1) Nuclei/DAPI (405 nm laser illumination, PMT1 adjusted to collect 415–485 nm emission), 2) MAP3K7/Alexa Fluor 488 (488 nm laser illumination, PMT2 adjusted to collect 500–500nm emission), 3) ICs/Cyanin-3 (552 nm laser illumination, PMT3 adjusted to collect 560–630 nm emission light).

Immunofluorescence Imaging of Transfected A549 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549 cells were seeded onto glass coverslips and cultured for 24 h before transfection with 1 μg of the indicated plasmids. Transfected A549 cells were cultured for 16 h, washed with PBS, and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. Cells were permeabilized with 0.25% (vol/vol) Triton-X in PBS, rinsed, and then blocked for 1 h in 1% (vol/vol) bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS. Coverslips were incubated with the indicated primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Fluorescein (FITC)- and Alexa Fluor 594-labeled secondary antibodies were added for 1 h at room temperature before mounting onto glass slides using gold antifade mountant with DAPI (ThermoFisher Scientific catalog no. P26935). Slides were imaged with a Leica microscope coupled to Leica LAS X software v3.0.11.20652 (Leica Microsystems, Inc., Germany).

RSV Infection-Induced Autophagy Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549 mCherry-LC3II cells were seeded onto glass coverslips and cultured for 24 h until subconfluent. Cells were infected with RSV for 16 h before the coverslips were fixed in 4% (vol/vol) paraformaldehyde. Fixed coverslips were washed in PBS and rinsed in double-distilled water before mounting onto glass slides using gold antifade mountant with DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) (ThermoFisher Scientific catalog no. P26935). Slides were imaged with a Leica microscope coupled to Leica LAS X software v3.0.11.20652 (Leica Microsystems, Inc., Germany). The number of LC3II puncta per cell was counted using the ImageJ particle analysis function (50 (link)). LC3II puncta were counted in at least 25 individual cells per experiment in two independent experiments.

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.
