Rat anti mhcii

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Rat anti-MHCII is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and analysis of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) molecules. MHCII molecules are cell surface glycoproteins that play a crucial role in the adaptive immune response by presenting antigenic peptides to T helper cells. The Rat anti-MHCII antibody can be used in various immunological techniques, such as flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and Western blotting, to identify and quantify MHCII-expressing cells.

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded slides were deparaffinized and sequentially rehydrated using ethanol. The slides were immersed in antigen retrieval solution (Dako, Santa Clara, CA) and incubated for antigen retrieval at high pressure using a cooker. After cooking, the slides were incubated with 2.5% horse serum in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for blocking and then incubated overnight at 4°C with the primary antibodies. Mouse anti–SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (Sino Biological, Beijing, China), rabbit anti-CD11c (Cell Signaling Technology), rabbit anti-CD19 (Cell Signaling Technology), rat anti-CD3 (Abcam), rat anti-MHCII (eBioscience), rabbit anti-podoplanin (PDPN; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), goat anti–surfactant protein C (SP-C; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), rabbit anti-CD31 (Abcam), and rabbit anti–transmembrane protein 173 (TMEM173; Proteintech, Rosemont, IL) were used as primary antibodies. Each primary antibody derived from diverse species was detected with the use of Alexa488-conjugated, Alexa568-conjugated, and Alexa647-conjugated secondary antibodies (secondary antibodies all from Invitrogen, Waltham, MA). Nuclear staining was performed with the use of DAPI (Abbkine, Wuhan, China). Confocal images were taken with a confocal microscope (Ts2; Nikon, Tokyo, Japan) of Kangwon Center for System Imaging.

Total proteins from mouse ventral midbrain, striatum and cerebellum samples were isolated in NP‐40 buffer (20 mM Tris–HCl pH 8; 137 mM NaCl; 10% glycerol; 1% NP‐40; 2 mM EDTA and protease inhibitors (cOmplete Mini EDTA‐free cocktail, Roche)) 1:20 (wt/vol). Protein concentration was determined using a bicinchoninic acid kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL). After boiling in Laemmli's buffer, 20 µg of protein was separated by electrophoresis on a 12% sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel, transferred to nitrocellulose membrane, and blocked with 2% BSA, 5% or 2% non‐fat dried milk in PBS containing 0.05% Tween‐20 (vol/vol). Overnight incubation with primary antibody at 4°C followed. Primary antibodies were rat anti‐MHC II (1:750; eBioscience), mouse anti‐interferon‐γ (1:500; ThermoScientific, Cambridge, UK), rabbit anti‐tumour necrosis factor‐α (1:200; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), rabbit anti‐interleukin‐1β (1:500; Abcam), and mouse anti‐β‐actin (1:25,000; SigmaAldrich). Blots were then washed a second time in PBS‐Tween (0.05%) and incubated with an appropriate secondary antibody (Jackson Immuno Research). Blots were washed in PBS‐Tween (0.05%) and developed using the Supersignal West Dura kit (Pierce) as per manufacturer's instructions. Bands were visualized with an AlphaInnotech digital imaging system (San Leandro, CA) and quantified with AlphaEase FC 5.02 software.

293T, E0771, and JAWSII cells were grown on 8-well slides (MatTek) coated with 1 µg/mL human fibronectin (EMD Millipore). Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine3000 (Thermofisher). For Lysotracker (ThermoFisher) staining, cells were incubated with 75 nm Lysotracker for 1 hour at 37°C. For endoplasmic reticulum (ER) staining, cells were incubated with 2 μL ER CellLight ER-RFP Bacman V.2.0 (Thermofisher) for 24 hours. Slides were washed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), fixed with 10% formalin for 20 min and mounted with DAPI Fluoromount-G (SouthernBiotech). Staining was performed in 0.1% PBST with rabbit anti-HER2 (1:200, Cell Signaling), rat anti-LAMP1 (1:200, Abcam) or rat anti-MHCII (1:200, Thermofisher) at 4° overnight and antirabbit Alexa Fluor 488 (1:1000 dilution, Invitrogen) or antirat Texas Red-X (1:1000, invitrogen) at room temperature for 1 hour. Slides were mounted with Fluoromount-G with DAPI (Southern Biotech).

Collected LLC cells or tumor tissues were lysed and homogenized in RIPA lysis supplemented with protein inhibitor. Total proteins were quantified using a BCA assay kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Then equal amounts of protein from each group were loaded and separated by SDS-PAGE followed by transferring to PVDF membranes (EMD Millipore Corp., Burlington, MA). After blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA, Sigma) for 1 h at room temperature, membranes were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. The next day, membranes were incubated with the corresponding HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:2000, Sigma) for 2 h at room temperature. Finally, bands were visualized using the ECL reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Primary antibodies used were rabbit anti-CD91 (1:2000), mouse anti-GAPDH (1:1000), rabbit anti-CD206 (1:2500) and rat anti-MHC II (1:1000), all of which were purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific. GAPDH served as the internal control.

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.
