Characterizing Pluripotent Stem Cells

To detect targeted antigens and p53 in pluripotent stem cells, we immobilized cells with PBS containing 4% polyformaldehyde at room temperature for 10 minutes. After washing with PBS, the cells were incubated in PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100 for 20 minutes at room temperature. Then, we stained fixed cells with SSEA-4 (1:100; monoclonal antibody; MAB8490; Stemgent), TRA-1-60 (1/200; monoclonal antibody; 09–0010; Stemgent), OCT4 (1/200; monoclonal antibody; MAB4419A4; Millipore), Nanog (1/600; monoclonal antibody; sc-293121; Santa Cruz) and p53 (1/500; monoclonal antibody; ab1101; abcam). These primary antibodies were visualized by with goat anti-rabbit IgG bound to Alexa 488 and goat anti-rabbit IgG bound to Alexa 594 or goat anti-mouse IgG bound to Alexa Fluor 488. Nuclear staining was performed with DAPI, and fluorescence images were obtained using Zeiss inverted LSM confocal microscopy (Carl Zeiss).

Cell lysates and protein samples were prepared as previously reported [60 (link)]. Proteins were resolved by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad) for detection with primary antibodies against SPIN1 (diluted 1:500, 19531-1-AP; Proteintech Group, Inc., Rosemont, IL, USA), CTNNB1 (diluted 1:500, sc-59737, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), MYC (diluted 1:500, sc-40, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), PTEN (diluted 1:500, sc-9145, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), AKT1/2/3 (diluted 1:500, sc-8312, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), p-AKT1/2/3 (Ser 473)-R (diluted 1:500, sc-7985-R, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), OCT 3/4 (diluted 1:300, sc-5279, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), SOX2 (diluted 1:300, sc-20088, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), NANOG (diluted 1:300, sc-293121, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and ACTIN (diluted 1:500, A5060, Sigma-Aldrich). The membranes were then incubated with the appropriate horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (diluted 1:5000, Perce, Thermo Fisher Scientific). The protein bands were revealed with an enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (ECL; Bio-Rad) and visualized by ChemiDoc XRS system (Bio-Rad) and Quality One 4.5.2 (Biorad) software. Finally, protein levels were normalized using ACTIN levels. Protein bands were quantified densitometrically.

Protein Expression Analysis of A549 Cells

Collected A549 and A549/GR cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (150 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet p-40, 50 mM Tris, pH 8.0, and a protease inhibitor cocktail). Thirty micrograms of each sample was separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad, USA). Western blotting was performed with rabbit or mouse antibodies against Prx II: LF-PA0091 (AbFrontier, Seoul, South Korea), CD133: PA2049 (Boster Bio, CA, USA), Nanog: sc-293121, OCT3/4: sc-9081, Sox2: sc-365823 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), VEGFR2: sc-6251, E-cad: sc-7870, Vimentin: sc-6260 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), Shh: 2207 s, Gli-1: 3538 s, Notch 1: 3268 s (Cell Signaling Technology), CXCR4: YF-MA16239, STAT3: LF-MA30485,pSTAT3 (Tyr 705): LF-PA20474, pSTAT3 (Tyr-727): LF-PA20473 Hes-1: YF-MA11051, and β-Catenin: YF-MA10213 (AbFrontier). Protein expression levels were detected using Super signal West Pico PLUS Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Fisher, #34577).

Immunofluorescent Staining of Pluripotent Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
iPS cells were grown on 15 mm glass coverslips coated with iMatrix-511. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde diluted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for 15 min at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 diluted in PBS and blocked with blocking buffer (0.1% Tween-20 and 1% bovine serum antigen diluted in PBS). Then, cells were stained with anti-OCT4 (ab19857, Abcam) and anti-NANOG (clone 1E6C4, sc-293121, Santa Cruz) diluted 500-fold in blocking buffer for 1 h at room temperature. The cells were then rinsed three times for 5 min each with 0.1% Tween-20 in PBS. Subsequently, the cells were stained with Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (A-11008, Invitrogen) and Alexa Fluor 568-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (A-11004, Invitrogen) diluted 1000-fold in blocking buffer for 1 h at room temperature and then rinsed three times for 5 min each with 0.1% Tween-20 in PBS. Finally, cells were stained with 2 µg/μl DAPI (Dojindo, D523) in PBS for 5 min at room temperature. Images were acquired with an LSM780 confocal microscope (Zeiss) and Zen Software Black Edition (Zeiss).

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.
