Quantifying Human Stem Cell Proliferation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human SSCs were seeded at 5000 cells/well in a 96-well plate; each well contained DMEM/F12 medium containing 50 μmol/L EdU (RiboBio). The cells were cultured for 12 h, washed using DMEM, and subjected to fixation using 40 g/L paraformaldehyde. Cell neutralization was achieved using 2 mg/mL glycine, followed by permeabilization for 10 min using 5 mL/L Triton X-100 at room temperature. Apollo staining reaction buffer was then used to reveal the EdU staining. Cell nuclei were stained using Hoechst 33342. A fluorescence microscope (Zeiss) was used to capture images, and the positive rate of EdU staining was calculated by counting at least 500 cells.

Cells (5 × 104) were seeded in 24-well plates and cultured overnight. Then 300 µl EdU (50 µM)(RiboBio, China) was added in each well and incubated for 2 h. Then cells were fixed by 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min and permeabilized by 0.5% TritonX-100 (Beyotime, China) for 20 min, dyed in 300 µl Apollo dye solution (RiboBio, China) for 25 min. Cell nuclei were dyed with Hoechst (RiboBio, China) for 10–30 min. Cells were observed under an inverted fluorescence microscope (Zeiss, Germany) at a magnification of 200×. And then proportion of EdU positive cells was calculated.

Quantifying RGC Differentiation in Vitro

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For each factor tested, triplicate wells were plated in media
containing either control (DPBS, Gibco) or 10 μM DAPT, 50 ng/mL
GDF-11, 50 ng/mL GDF6, 50 ng/mL GDF8, 50 ng/mL GDF-15, 50 ng/mL BMP2, 50
ng/mL BMP4, 50 ng/mL BMP7, and 50 ng/mL TGFβ1. Concentrations of
GDF11 and GDF15 were chosen because these are previously published plateau
concentrations able to elicit maximal effect [19 (link)]. We did see a similar dose response peaking
at 50 ng/ml in the combined GDF11+GDF15 experiments in Figureure 3. EdU (5 μM, Invitrogen) was
added at every other day of culture. Cells were cultured for 5 days and then
fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) and counterstained with DAPI
(4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole, Invitrogen), Brn3 (Santa Cruz) and
EdU Click-iT (Invitrogen). Cells were imaged under fluorescence microscopy
(Zeiss) and the percentage of Brn3+ and EdU+ double positive cells
(representing the # of RGC that differentiated in culture) out of the total
EdU+ cell (# of cells that divided in culture) were quantified. At
20× magnification, cells were quantified from 6 fields of view from
each well beginning with the center of the well. The data represents 3
independent experiments in which the data was derived from a unique mouse
litter and a unique cell preparation. The data from each well represents the
mean from the 6 fields of view quantified.

EdU Incorporation Assay for Glioma Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells (75,000) were plated in 24-well plates with round coverslips overnight. 200 µl of EdU (10 µM, KeyGEN Bio TECH, Nanjing, China) were added to each well, and the cells were incubated at 37°C, 2 h. The cells were fixed by adding 4% neutral paraformaldehyde to each well and removed after 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, we added 0.5% TritonX-100 (KenGEN, Nanjing, China) in PBS (200 µl) to each well for 20 min and stained the samples with 200 µl Click-iT reaction mixture (KeyGEN Bio TECH, Nanjing, China) for 30 min under lightproof conditions. Next, DAPI (Beyotime, China) was used to stain the glioma cell nuclei. Round coverslips were observed using Carl Zeiss microscope (Carl Zeiss, Germany) to analyze the proportion of EdU-positive cells.

Cell Cycle-Specific DSB Repair Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To analyse DSB repair in a cell cycle-specific manner, the thymidine analogue EdU (10 μM, Invitrogen) was added to the cells for 1 h. Spontaneous and PARPi-induced foci were analysed immediately after, whilst for IR-induced breaks, EdU was kept throughout the experiment. After fixation, DAPI and EdU intensities were measured and plotted in a diagram using a Zeiss microscope and Metafer4 software (Metasystems). EdU cells were categorised as either G1 or G2 according to their DNA content (see Extended Data Fig. 1a).

Quantifying Neuronal Proliferation via EdU Labeling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A thymidine analog, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU, Tokyo Chemical Industry) was intraperitoneally injected into a pregnant mouse (50 mg/kg body weight) at the indicated time points before or after TM injection. The brains were dissected from the mice at P0, and coronal sections of 16-μm thickness were prepared as explained above. The sections were antigen-retrieved as described above and immunostained with chicken anti-βGAL and donkey Alexa488-conjugated anti-chicken IgY antibodies. Subsequently, the incorporated EdU was detected in a solution of 0.1 M Tris (pH 7.6), 2 mM CuSO4, 3 μM Alexa555 azide triethylammonium salt (A20012, Thermo Fisher Scientific), and 10 mM ascorbic acid for 40 min at room temperature. The numbers of neurons labeled for βGAL and those doubly labeled for βGal and EdU were manually counted for each mouse with a 40× objective lens (Plan-Apochromat) under a fluorescent microscope (Zeiss Axioplan2) with 38 HE (ex470/40, em525/50) and 15 (ex549/12, em590) filter sets. The exact numbers of animals and neurons used for quantification are shown in the figures and legends. The scattered plots (Figures 5C–5F and 7C–7F) were generated using the Prism8 software (GraphPad).

First, OCI-Ly3 and OCI-Ly10 cells were treated with 1-L-MT for 48 hours. DLBCL cells were then incubated with 50 μM EdU (RiboBio, C10310-3, Guangzhou, China) for 2 hours at 37 °C. After fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde and washing with PBS, the cells were stained with 1× Apollo for 30 mins in the dark. Then, 1× Hoechst 33342 was used to stain cell nuclei. Finally, the EdU-stained cells were centrifuged and resuspended in glass-bottom cell culture dishes, and images were acquired by a confocal microscope (LSM880, Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).

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.
