E-cadherin Immunostaining Protocol for Embryos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For E-cadherin immunostaining, embryos were dissected at E9.0 to E9.5 and were stained in whole mount with anti-E-Cadherin antibody (Life Technologies, 1:1000 dilution). A biotinylated anti-rat IgG secondary antibody (Vector Laboratories), followed by Vectastain Elite ABC (Vector Laboratories) and TSA fluorescein tyramide reagent (PerkinElmer) amplification, were used to detect anti-E-cadherin as described [36 ]. Embryos were photographed using a Zeiss Observer Z1 inverted microscope.
To compare E-cadherin staining intensity, mutant and control embryos were fixed in 4 % paraformaldehyde at 4 °C overnight, cut by vibratome, then stained with anti-E-Cadherin antibody (Life Technologies, 1:1000 dilution), using an Alexa-488-conjugated anti-rat IgG secondary antibody (Life Technologies, 1:1000 dilution) as described [37 ]. Images were collected using a Zeiss LSM510 laser scanning confocal microscope (data not shown).

Bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) were differentiated for 5 days in RPMI 1640 media with 15% fetal calf serum (FCS) and antibiotic-antimycotic solution supplemented with M-CSF (20 ng/ml). Polarization of BMDM was performed for additional 3 days RPMI 1640 media with 15% fetal calf serum (FCS) with 100 ng/ml LPS (Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 10 ng/ml IFNγ (PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ) for M1 macrophages and with IL-4 (10 ng/ml, PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ) for M2 macrophages. CO treatment was applied at 250 ppm in CO chamber (5% CO2, 21% O2 and 95% humidity) as previously described [18 (link)].
PC3 cells were co-cultured with BMDM from Hmox1fl/fl or LyzM-Cre:Hmox1fl/fl mice in a 1:2 or 1:5 ratio for 24 h. PC3/BMDM cells alone or in co-culture were used for immunostaining using anti-E-cadherin antibody (CatNo: ab15148) and Mitotracker Red CMXRos (Life Technologies), for detecting mitochondria as well as for direct testing of mitochondrial activity Mitochondria Stress Kit (Seahorse) was used as previously described [49 (link)].
Overexpression of HO-1: Constructs were kindly provided by Dr. Chau (Taiwan) and forced overexpressions of Flag, HO-1-Flag or truncated HO-1-Flag (t-HO-1) were established in PC3 cells upon transfection with Amaxa. Forty eight hours after transfection, cells were stained or cell lysates were immunoblotted.

Forskolin-Induced Trophoblast Barrier Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Following formation of a confluent epithelial monolayer on the membrane surface in the upper microchannel, we treated the apical side of the epithelium with forskolin to activate the protein kinase A pathway in the cultured trophoblasts. A stock solution of forskolin (Sigma; 5 mg/mL in DMSO) was diluted with F-12K medium to a final concentration of 50 uM and perfused through the upper microchannel. After 72 hours of forskolin treatment, the trophoblast cells were fixed in 4% PFA, permeabilized in Triton-X 100, and then incubated with 2% BSA in PBS for immunofluorescence staining. To analyze changes in junctional protein expression, the samples were incubated with anti-E-cadherin antibody (Life Technologies) in 2% BSA, followed by secondary antibody and DAPI. Additionally, media perfusate was collected at 48, 72, and 96 hours from both untreated and forskolin-treated devices. The collected samples were analyzed using a human chorionic gonadotropin beta (β-hCG) ELISA kit (Abcam) to quantify the levels of β-hCG produced by the trophoblast population at each time point.

Derivation of Primary PDAC Cell Lines

Derivation of primary PDAC cell lines were performed as previously described36 (link). Fresh tumors were minced with sterile razor blades, digested with dispase II (17105041, Gibco, 4 mg/ml)/collagenase IV (17104019, Gibco, 4 mg/ml)/RPMI for 1 h at 37°C, filtered by a 70 μm cell strainer, resuspended in RPMI/20%FBS and then seeded on collagen I coated plates (087747, Fisher Scientific). Cells were maintained in RPMI medium with 20% FBS and 1% penicillin, streptomycin and amphotericin B (PSA) antibiotic mixture. Cancer cells were further purified by FACS based on YFP or E-Cadherin expression (anti-E-cadherin antibody, 50-3249-82, eBioscience, 1:100). The sorted cells, using BD FACSAria™ II sorter (South Campus Flow Cytometry Core Lab of MD Anderson Cancer Center) were subsequently expanded in vitro. All studies were performed on cells cultivated less than 30 passages. As these are primary cell lines no further authentication methods were applicable and no mycoplasma tests were performed.

The cells were seeded on square coverslips in six-well plates for 24 h to allow them to attach. Subsequently, the cells were fixed, permeated and blocked using the Immunol Fluorence Staining kit (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). The cells were then incubated with anti-E-cadherin antibody (diluted at 1:100; 701134; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), anti-N-cadherin antibody (diluted at 1:200; PA5-19486; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and anti-vimentin antibody (diluted at 1:200; PA5-27231; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) overnight at 4°C. Secondary antibody (diluted at 1:200; ab150077; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) was applied for 1 h at room temperature. The cells were counterstained with DAPI and washed with PBS following each step of the staining procedure. Coverslips were mounted using Anti-fade Fluorescence Mounting Medium (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). The long and short axes of cells were measured using the Zeiss LSM Image Examiner software (version 4.2.0.121; Carl Zeiss AG, Oberkochen, Germany), and the long/short axis ratio was determined by counting 100 cells per experiment.

Kidney proteins were extracted with 1× cell lysis buffer containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Sigma‐Aldrich). After centrifugation at 12500 g at 4°C for 30 min, supernatant was collected and 20 μL of lysate from each sample was run on a 10% dodecyl sulfate (SDS)‐polyacrylamide gel and then electrophoretically transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane. PVDF membranes were rinsed in TBST (10 mmol/L Tris‐HCL, pH 7.4, 0.9% NaCl, 0.05% Tween 20, and 1 mmol/L EDTA) and blocked in blocking buffer (TBST containing 5% bovine serum albumin) for 1 hour at room temperature. PVDF membranes were then incubated with primary antibodies against β‐actin (sc‐47778, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, CA, USa), E‐cadherin (anti‐E‐cadherin antibody, Thermo Scientific), and α‐smooth muscle actin (α‐SMA; anti‐alpha SMA antibody ab5694, Abcam) overnight at 4°C. Subsequently, the membranes were washed, and then incubated with secondary antibodies (HRP‐conjugated goat anti‐rabbit IgG or goat anti‐mouse IgG (Santa Cruz) for 1 hour at room temperature. The membrane was developed with enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) substrate (Li‐cor, Lincoln, NE, USA) and exposed to UVP chemiluminescence (Biolite LLC, Upland, CA, USA).

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.
