Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Myl3 was quantitated in rat serum on a custom assay by MPI Research (Mattawan, MI). Samples (5μL) were analyzed in duplicate on Gyrolab™ Bioaffy 1000 CDs (Gyros, Uppsala, Sweden) using the Gyrolab xP workstation with a biotinylated (EZ Link™ Micro Sulfo-NHS-LC biotinylation kit, Thermo Scientific) capture antibody (BiosPacific, Emeryville, CA) and a fluorescently labeled (Alexa Fluor®647 labeling kit, Invitrogen) detection antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, UK). Prior to analysis, samples were diluted 1:4 in Rexxip A buffer (Gyros). Concentrations were interpolated from a 7-point standard curve using a recombinant; his-tagged rat specific myl3 expressed in-house (Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, IN) as a calibrator and fit with a 5-parameter logistic curve. Capture antibody was diluted in PBS + 0.01% Tween 20, detection antibody was diluted in Rexxip F buffer (Gyros), and standards were diluted in Rexxip A. Prior to sample analysis, the performance of the assay was characterized using positive controls (assay calibrator spiked into rat serum) at six different concentrations (approximately mid-way between each standard concentration) ran on 3 different CDs on 3 different days to assess precision and accuracy. Myl3 was quantifiable from 0.05 ng/mL to 200 ng/mL with <12.5 %CV and −5 to −12% relative error.

Receptor density studies were performed by flow cytometry on a MACSQuant VYB (Miltenyl Biotec) essentially as described20 (link). Briefly, anti-EGFR GA201 and anti-HER2 trastuzumab IgGs were first labeled with Alexa Fluor 647 labeling kit (Invitrogen) according to the supplier’s recommendations. Antibody concentration and fluorochrome to protein (F:P) ratio were determined by a ND-1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop). Parental NCI-H358 and NCI-H358.HER2.ko cells at ~4 × 106 cells/mL were washed with ice-cold FACS Buffer (PBS pH 7.2, 2% FBS, 2 mM EDTA and 0.1% sodium azide) followed by incubation with the conjugated antibodies at saturating concentrations (≥ 20 μg/mL) for 30 min at 4 °C. After washing with FACS buffer, cells were fixed in ice-cold 1.8% paraformaldehyde (PFA) and detection of bound antibodies was performed on MACSQuant VYB using MACSQuantify™ software. Results were analyzed using the FlowJo analysis software (Tree Star). For quantitation of EGFR and HER2 receptor density on cells, Quantum Alexa Fluor 647 MESF (Molecules of Equivalent Soluble Fluorochrome) beads (Bangs Laboratories) were analyzed on the flow cytometer using similar settings to establish a standard curve. Using the QuickCal program (Bangs Laboratories) the calculated MESF was then divided by the antibody F:P ratio to give a corrected Antibody Binding Capacity (ABC).

To quantify the cell surface mesothelin expression, cells were grown for 2 days, harvested, washed with FACS buffer (PBS with 5% FBS and 0.1% NaN3), and incubated with 5 μg/mL of mouse antimesothelin MN antibody23 (link) (Rockland Immunochemicals Inc., Gilbertsville, PA) on ice for 30 minutes. After washing, cells were incubated with goat antimouse IgG-R-PE (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories Inc., West Grove, PA) on ice for 30 minutes in the dark, and washed again twice. Mesothelin expression was analyzed on a FACSCalibur. QuantiBRITE PE beads (BD Pharmingen) were used to quantitate the number of mesothelin sites per cell. To evaluate RIT internalization and the effect of ABT-737 on uptake, cells were incubated for 3 hours at 37°C with 2 μg/mL of SS1P-Alexa647 alone or in combination with 10 μM ABT-737. SS1P was labeled with the Alexa Fluor 647 Labeling Kit (Invitrogen) according to manufacturer’s instructions. After incubation, cells were washed with FACS buffer, and surface-bound SS1P was removed by stripping cells with glycine buffer (0.2 mol/L glycine, pH 2.5 and 1 mg/mL of BSA) for 10 minutes, neutralized with Tris-HCl 1M pH 8, and washed with FACS buffer.

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.
