Immunofluorescence was performed on cells grown directly on slides as previously described (Chadwick and Willard 2002 (link)). Except, the maximum slide seed area was delimited using a Super PAP Pen (IM3580, Beckman Coulter®) and coated with 700µl of Matrigel™ or 0.1% Gelatin prior to seeding hESCs or EBOGs, respectively. Additionally, hESCs were allowed to adhere for 1hr in complete StemPro® media supplemented with ROCK Inhibitor Y-27632 (ROCKi, SCM075, Millipore™), the media was then replaced with fresh complete StemPro® media (-ROCKi), and allowed to recover overnight. Antibodies used for indirect Immunofluorescence included rabbit anti-H3K4me2 (07–030, EMD Millipore), mouse anti-H3K27me3 (ab6002, abcam), rabbit anti-NANOG (3580S, Cell Signaling Technology), mouse anti-SSEA4 (4755S, Cell Signaling Technology), goat anti-SOX2 (AF2018, R&D Systems), and rabbit anti-OCT4 (2750S, Cell Signaling Technology). Conjugate secondary antibodies (Alexa-Fluor®) were obtained from Life Technologies Corporation. DNA was counterstained using the VECTASHIELD® mounting medium with DAPI from VECTOR Laboratories. Imaging was performed on an Olympus IX71 operated by the DeltaVision pDV, deconvolved with softWoRx 5.5.1 (DeltaVision), and compiled using Adobe Photoshop CS6 (Adobe Systems).

Immunohistochemistry was performed as described previously17 (link). In brief, sections on glass slides were treated in 10 mM Tris–HCl pH 9.0, 1 mM EDTA at 95 °C for one minute, incubated with the blocking buffer (10% normal donkey serum, 0.1% Triton-X100 in PBS), incubated with the primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight, washed, incubated with the secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 h, and washed. The following antibodies were used; mouse anti-mCherry (#632543, Clontech), goat anti-Sox2 (AF2018, R&D Systems), mouse anti-GFP (#11814460001, Sigma), anti-mouse IgG conjugated to Alexa 594 (A21203, Molecular Probe) and anti-mouse IgG conjugated to Alexa 488 (A21202, Molecular Probe), anti-goat IgG conjugated to Alexa 594 (A11058, Molecular Probe). Hoechst 33342 (H1399, Molecular Probe) was used for nuclear staining.

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.
