Cells cultured on glass coverslip were fixed with 4% PFA, treated with 0.1 M glycine in PBS for 30 min, followed by permeabilization with 0.2% saponin in PBS for 30 min and blocked with 5% goat or donkey serum and 0.05% BSA in 0.04% saponin containing PBS [64]. Coverslips were incubated overnight with primary antibodies at 4ºC and then with secondary antibodies in the blocking solution for 2 h at room temperature. Nuclei were stained with DAPI.
Primary antibodies include: SQSTM1 (1:200; Progen, GP62-C), TUBB3/Tuj1 (1:500; Biolegend, 801202), CTSL (1:250, R&D Systems, AF-1515), LAMP1 (1:200; Abcam, 24170). Secondary antibodies: Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-rabbit (A11034), Alexa Fluor 546 anti-rabbit (A11035), Alexa Fluor 546 goat anti-mouse (A11030), Alexa Fluor 568 goat anti-guinea pig (A11075), Alexa Fluor 633 goat anti-mouse (A21052) and Alexa Fluor 546 donkey anti-goat (A11056) were from Invitrogen.

Alexa Fluor secondary antibodies (Invitrogen) were used at a dilution of 1:1,000.
Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-mouse (#A11029), Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-rabbit (#A11034), Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-guinea pig (#A11073), Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-chicken IgY (#A11039), Alexa Fluor 555 goat anti-mouse (#A21422), Alexa Fluor 555 goat anti-rabbit (#A21428), Alexa Fluor 568 goat anti-guinea pig (#A11075), Alexa Fluor 647 goat anti-mouse (#A21236), Alexa Fluor 647 goat anti-rabbit (#A21245). Only cross-adsorbed secondary antibodies were used in this study to eliminate the risk of cross-reactivity.
F-Actin was stained with phalloidin conjugated to Rhodamine (Invitrogen, Cat. #R415, 1:500 dilution).

Immunolabeling of Hippocampal Slices

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hippocampal slices were washed 3 times with 0.01 M phosphate buffer saline (PBS) and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 1 h at room temperature (RT). At the end of fixation, the slices were washed 3 times with PBS and then stored at 4 °C in PBS containing 0.05% sodium azide until use. Prior to immunolabelling, slices were washed 3 times with PBS for 10 min, then incubated overnight with 1% Triton X-100 in PBS at 4 °C, followed by a blocking stage using 20% bovine serum albumin (BSA) diluted in PBS (0.01 M) and containing 0.1% Triton (PBS-T) for 3 h at RT. Slices were then incubated overnight with primary antibody diluted in PBS-T and 1% normal goat serum (NGS): rabbit anti-NeuN antibody (1: 200, Cell Signalling Technology, D4G4O # 24,307), guinea pig anti-GLT1 antibody (1:5000, Merck Millipore Chemicon International, ab1783), rabbit anti-GLAST antibody (1: 150, Abcam, ab416), or rabbit anti-GS (1:5000, Abcam, ab49873). Following washes in PBS-T, slices were incubated in appropriate secondary antibodies for 3 h at RT, namely goat anti-guinea pig Alexa-fluor 568 or goat anti-rabbit Alexa-Fluor 647 (both at 1:500, Invitrogen), in addition to the nuclear chromatin dye Hoechst 33,342 (1:500, Fisher, 11,544,876). Lastly, slices were washed in PBS-T (0.1%) and mounted in Fluoromount G (Invitrogen—REF 00–4958-02).

Immunofluorescent Staining of Pancreatic Islets

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Islets were fixed overnight at 4°C in paraformaldehyde before application of primary antibodies against ADCY5/6 (cat. no. ab66037; Abcam) (34 (link)) and either guinea pig anti-insulin 1:200 or mouse anti-glucagon 1:1,000 (both DAKO). Revelation was performed with goat anti-rabbit Alexa-Fluor 488 and either goat anti–guinea pig Alexa-Fluor 568 or goat anti-mouse Alexa-Fluor 568 antibodies (both 1:500, Invitrogen). Images were acquired as previously described (27 (link)).

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.
