After irradiation and incubation for 1 h at 37°C, cells were permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X and blocked and stained with anti‐γH2AX antibody (ab22551; Abcam) at 1:800 dilution. Cy3 conjugated donkey anti mouse IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, PA, USA) was used as a secondary antibody, at 1:500 dilution for 1 h, and mounted with Prolong Gold with DAPI (Life Technologies). All the images were captured by a Leica DMLB fluorescent microscope (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany). The mean density of γH2AX expression per nuclei were measured using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).

Quantifying Brain Metastasis Distribution

Two cohorts consisting of six to eight male NSG mice each were utilized to quantify the distribution of metastasis in different brain regions. One cohort of animals was subjected to stroke and metastasis and the other with metastasis alone. Brains were extracted, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and cryosectioned into 100 μm thick sagittal sections while frozen in OCT. Four sections per animal were used to quantify metastasis and the distribution of YDFR-CB3GFP+ cells in various brain regions. Sections were imaged, outlined, and GFP+ cells were manually counted using a StereoInvestigator (StereoInvestigator MBF Bioscience, Williston, VT, United States) on a Leica DMLB fluorescent microscope (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany) with a 40× objective.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To test the scFv DIATHIS1 specificity against CEACAM1 a competitive assay was performed. For this purpose 2.5×105 MelC cells were grown overnight on glass coverlips, washed and fixed with 4% (vol/vol) of formaldehyde for 15 minutes at RT and incubated in PBS containing 1% (wt/vol) BSA and 0.1% (wt/vol) gelatin to saturate nonspecific binding sites. The cells were then exposed to 10 μg/mL of scFv DIATHIS1 alone or added in separated samples with different concentrations (5, 10, and 50 μg/mL) of soluble recombinant CEACAM1 fragment corresponding to the N-terminal IgV-like domain and first IgC2-like domain (CEACAM1 amino acid residues 35-233; Diatheva S.R.L., Fano, Italy) and then incubated for 60 minutes at RT. After washing, an anti-Flag M2 monoclonal antibody (Sigma Aldrich) 1:400 (vol/vol) diluted in blocking solution was added and incubated for 60 minutes at RT. After washing, an anti-mouse antibody FITC-conjugated 1:200 (vol/vol) diluted in blocking solution was added to the wells and maintained for 60 minutes RT. After washing, the fluorescence was highlighted using a Leica DMLB fluorescent microscope equipped with a DC300F CCD digital camera. Nuclei were stained with 4′-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) solution 1:10000 (vol/vol) diluted.

Frozen samples, processed immediately after tissue harvesting, were cut in a Leica CM1900 cryostat. For staining, tissues were fixed in ice-cold acetone:methanol (50:50) and antibodies were prepared in antibody diluent (003118; Invitrogen-Thermo Fisher Scientific, Paisley, UK). After staining, slides were mounted in Fluoroshield with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI;F6057; Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA). Primary antibodies used were CD146-FITC (MCA2141F; AbD Serotec-BioRad, Kidlington, UK), CD144 (AHP628Z; AbD Serotec-BioRad), NG2 (MAB2585; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), αSMA (ab5694; AbCam, Cambridge, UK), CD29 (303015; BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), CD44 (AbD Serotec-BioRad), and CD34 (21270341S; ImmunoTools, Friesoythe, Germany). Isotype controls were IgG1-FITC (MCA928F; AbD Serotec-BioRad), IgG1 (MAB002; R&D Systems), IgG1κ (400101; BioLegend), and IgG1 (21335011; ImmunoTools), all raised in mouse; and rabbit IgG (PRABP01; AbD Serotec-BioRad). Secondary antibodies were conjugated to AF488 (A11029), AF568 (A110037), and AF568 (A10042), all from Invitrogen-Thermo Fisher Scientific. Micrographs were produced using a Zeiss LSM710 confocal or Leica DMLB fluorescent microscope.

Samples were processed in a Leica CM1900 cryostat, allowed to air dry, and processed right away or kept frozen at −80°C. For staining, tissues were fixed in ice cold acetone–methanol (50:50) and antibodies were prepared in diluent (003118; Invitrogen-Thermo Fisher Scientific, Paisley, United Kingdom) and, after staining, slides were mounted in fluoroshield with DAPI (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO).

Immunofluorescence assays (IFA) were performed as previously described [21] (link). Briefly, HFF monolayers grown on coverslips were inoculated with the designated parasite line, sometimes containing Shield-1 or EtOH vehicle. After removal of culture medium, infected HFFs were fixed in 3% paraformaldehyde for 10 min and then were permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 for 10 min. For visualization of HA-fusion proteins, rat monoclonal anti-HA primary antibody (Roche #11867423001) was applied at 1∶2,000 followed by goat anti-rat Alexa Fluor 488 secondary antibody at 1∶2,000 (Invitrogen #A-11006). Nuclei were co-stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Samples were visualized using a Leica DMLB fluorescent microscope.

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.
