C2C12 cells in 24-well plates were fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 30 min and washed three times in PBS for 5 min each time. The fixed cells were incubated with 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 10 min, 3% H2O2 for 10 min, the primary antibodies against myosin (MAB-0124, Maixin, Fuzhou, China) and CaMKIIδ (ab105502, Abcam, Cambrige, UK) overnight at 4 °C, and then, the secondary antibodies (Alexa Fluor 594, a11037, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for 45 min before counterstained with 4′, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI, D9542, Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) for 10 min. Images from at least three regions in each well were captured by a fluorescence microscope (DP72, Olympus, Japan). The fusion index was calculated as the ratio of the number of nuclei in myosin-positive myotubes with two or more nuclei to the total nuclei number.

This assay was performed using an assay kit (12156792910, Sigma-Aldrich, Germany) [26 (link)]. PTECs with various interventions (5 × 104 cells/well) were seeded in 12-well plates and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (P6148, Sigma-Aldrich, Germany) at ambient temperature for 10 min, then permeabilized in 1% Triton X-100 (T8787, Sigma-Aldrich, Germany) for 5 min and covered with 50 mL of TdT enzyme reaction solution for 1-h incubation in a wet box. PTECs were further covered with 50 mL streptavidin-fluorescein labeling buffer at 37 °C for 30 min, and the nuclei were stained with 10 µL 4′, 6-Diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI, D9542, Sigma-Aldrich, Germany) for 5 min. A confocal laser scanning microscope (Stellaris 5, Leica, Wetzlar, Germany) was used to observe the cells at 200 × magnification.

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.
