5 ethynyl 2 deoxyuridine edu cell proliferation kit

Manufactured by RiboBio
Sourced in China

5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) cell proliferation kit is a laboratory tool used to detect and quantify cell proliferation. It incorporates an alkyne-modified nucleoside, EdU, into the DNA of actively dividing cells. The incorporated EdU can then be detected using a fluorescent azide-based detection method.

Mononuclear cells were obtained from spleens using grinding and Ficoll Lymphocyte Separation Medium (Hao Ocean Creatures, China) to isolate lymphocytes according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Then, anti-rat CD4-FITC and separation buffer (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany) were used for the isolation of CD4+ T lymphocytes according to the manufacturer’s instructions. One milliliter of T lymphocytes was seeded in the lower layer of a transwell (concentration 2.5 × 104/ml) with RPMI 1640, 10% FBS, 2.5 μg/ml phytohemagglutinin, and 10 ng/ml IL-2. The differently handled MSCs (MSC, Vector-MSCs, and IL33-MSCs) were seeded in the upper layer of a transwell (3-μm pore size; Costar, USA) and co-cultured for 72 h, and Edu (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) cell proliferation kit (RiboBio, China) for proliferation assay was added for another 2 h before T cell proliferation was analyzed using flow cytometry.

Cell Proliferation and Viability Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) cell proliferation kit (RiboBio, Guangzhou, China. Catalog No. C10310) was used to determine cell proliferation. According to the manufacturer's instructions, EdU was infiltrated into the proliferating cells, and the ratio of proliferating cells was calculated by fluorescence microscopy.
Cell proliferation was also determined by Western blot analysis of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). PCNA antibody (Cell Signaling Technology, MA, USA. Catalog No. 13110) and GAPDH antibody (Cell Signaling Technology. Catalog No. 2118) were used in the experiment. GAPDH was used as an internal control.
Cell viability was determined using the CCK8 detection kit (Beyotime, Wuhan, China. Catalog No. C0037) according to the reagent manufacturer's instructions. A microplate reader (iMark™ Microplate Absorbance Reader, Bio-Rad, CA, USA) was used to detect the absorbance of the sample at 450 nm (optical density at 450, OD 450). Cell viability was expressed as a percentage.

SC Proliferation Assay using EdU

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SC proliferation was analyzed using a 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) cell proliferation kit (Ribobio). The SCs transfected with the indicated siRNA were seeded into a 96-well culture plate at a density of 1 × 105 cells/well and incubated with 50 µM EdU for 4 hours. Next, the treated SCs were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 minutes and permeabilized with Triton X-100 for 15 minutes. Then, the cells were stained with Apollo fluorescent dye, and the cell nuclei were stained with 5 µg/mL Hoechst 33342, for 20 minutes. The ratio of EdU-positive to total cells was calculated using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA) from four randomly selected images photographed under a Olympus fluorescence microscope (Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan). The EdU assay was carried out in triplicate, with three identical wells included for each sample.

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.
