Activated T cells were stimulated in the presence of ethanol or GML with plate-bound anti-CD3 on glass coverslips for 15 min. In experiments with inhibitors of cytoskeletal processes, 100 μM Colchine (Cayman Chemicals), 10 μM SMIFH2 (Calbiochem), or 10 μM CK-666 (Calbiochem) solubilized in DMSO were added to the activated T cells at the same time as the GML or solvent. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 min, permeabilized with 0.25% Triton-X for 5 min, and then stained with the appropriate reagents. To detect actin, TMR-Phalloidin (Sigma) was incubated with the fixed and permeabilized cells for 2 hours at 37°C. To detect microcluster formation of signaling proteins, cells were stained with antibodies specific for Arp2 (Cell Signaling), WAVE2 (Cell Signaling), phosphorylated WASp Y290 (Invitrogen), ARPC3 (Millipore), phosphorylated SLP-76 Y128 (BD Pharmingen), and phosphorylated LAT Y191 (Millipore). Staining was detected with the conjugated secondary antibodies DyLight 488 Goat anti-rabbit IgG or Alexa Fluor 568 goat anti-mouse IgG1 (Thermo Fisher). TIRF images were captured by the Leica AM TIRF MC system using a 100x magnification oil immersion objective lens at the University of Iowa Central Microscopy Research Facility. Actin ring structures were imaged using the same microscope using the epifluorescence channels.

Immunofluorescence Analysis of VACV Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fluorescent microscopy for immunofluorescence was carried out using a Zeiss Axiostar plus epifluorescent microscope and images were captured with an Optronics camera system. Cells were grown on sterile glass coverslips, infected (MOI = 5) with ECTV, and fixed at the indicated time points with 10% formalin for 10 min at room temperature. For virus factory analysis, cells were then immediately mounted on a glass slide with ProLong Gold antifade reagent with 4’-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Life Technologies) and allowed to cure overnight prior to visualization. For surface B5 staining, unpermeabilized cells were incubated—after fixation—in blocking buffer [1% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Gemini BioProducts) and 2% FBS (Gemini BioProducts) in 1x PBS] for 20 min and then incubated for 40 min with anti-B5 monoclonal antibody (BEI resources NR-553) diluted in blocking buffer. After three washes with 1x PBS, Alexa Fluor 568 goat anti-Mouse IgG1 (Life Technologies) diluted in blocking buffer was applied to cells for 20 min. Finally, the coverslips were mounted as described above on a glass slide with ProLong Gold antifade reagent with DAPI. A Leica DM-IL LED inverted epifluorescent microscope was used to visualize fluorescence from VACVΔE3LΔK3L infected cells. These images were then processed using QImaging software.

Immunostaining was performed as previously described with minor modifications.7 (link),9 Briefly, tissue was fixed by transcardial perfusion of 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA, Alfa Aesar, MA), followed by harvest of the temporal bones and further fixation in 4% PFA at 4°C overnight. After adequate decalcification by incubation in 500mM EDTA (3–6 days), the cochlear ducts were dissected as described by the Eaton-Peabody Laboratories.12 The tissue was permeabilized with PBS-0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, MO) and blocked in permeabilization buffer supplemented with 5% normal goat serum (Cell Signaling Technologies, MA). Pre-synaptic ribbons and post-synaptic densities were labelled using a monoclonal mouse anti-CtBP2 antibody (1:200, BD Biosciences, CA) and a monoclonal mouse anti-GluR2 antibody (1:2000, Sigma-Aldrich, MO), respectively. Following this, the tissue was incubated with the corresponding secondary antibodies, goat anti-mouse IgG2 Alexa Fluor® 488 and goat anti-mouse IgG1 Alexa Fluor® 568 (1:1000, ThermoFisher Scientific, MA). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. The labelled tissue was mounted with the ProLong Gold antifade reagent (ThermoFisher Scientific, MA).

Immunofluorescent staining was employed to assess the presence of OCT4 and p21. Initially, PDLSCs were cultured in 8-multiwell chambers from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Carlsbad, CA, USA). Following a 24-h incubation at 37 °C to facilitate cellular adhesion, the cells were fixed using 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized using TBS containing 0.5% Triton, and then blocked with TBS containing 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Sigma-Aldrich). The subsequent steps involved incubating the cells with primary antibodies; p21 was incubated for 1 h at room temperature, while OCT4 required 3 h. This was followed by an incubation with secondary antibodies conjugated to a fluorophore for 1 h at room temperature, as reported elsewhere [23 (link)] Unconjugated monoclonal antibodies directed to human OCT4 (9B7), p21 (R.229.6) and their respective secondary antibodies goat anti-Mouse IgG1 Alexa Fluor 568 and goat anti-rabbit IgG DyLight 488 were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Carlsbad, CA, USA). Nuclei were stained through SlowFade Gold antifade reagent with DAPI by Invitrogen (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Analysis was performed through a Leica SP8 inverted confocal microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, 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.
