Immunofluorescence Staining of Neural Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For immunofluorescence staining, cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde in PBS solution for 15 min, permeabilized with 1% Triton X-100 in PBS solution for 15 min and blocked with 2% bovine serum albumin in PBS solution for 1 h. Thereafter, cells were incubated with the following primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C: anti-MAP 2 (1:500; Sigma, M1406), anti-TUJ1 (1:500; Covance, MRB-435P), anti-TAU (1:200; Dako, A0024) and anti-CTIP2 (1:200; Abcam, ab28448). Primary antibodies were detected using secondary antibodies conjugated to Alexa Fluor 488 (1:500; Molecular Probes) and Alexa Fluor 594 (1:500; Molecular Probes). Cells were washed in PBS and nuclei counterstained with DAPI (Sigma-Aldrich, D9542). Finally, coverslips of growing cells were transferred onto glass slides with mounting medium (Dako, S3023) and imaged immediately using sequential line scanning with a Leica TCS SP5 II inverted confocal microscope.

Probing CTIP2 and CD45 in Aorta

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BCL11B/CTIP2 expression in the aorta was probed using five antibodies that recognize different epitopes on CTIP2: anti-CTIP2 rat monoclonal (Abcam, ab18465), rabbit polyclonal (Abcam, ab70452), rabbit polyclonal (Abcam, ab28448), rabbit monoclonal (Abcam, ab187668), and rabbit monoclonal (CST signaling 12120). Western blot and IHC staining antibody dilutions were used as recommended by the manufacturer. CD45 expression in the aorta was probed with anti-CD45 rabbit polyclonal (Abcam, ab10558) at 1:2000 dilution. Beta-actin rabbit polyclonal immunoglobulin G (ThermoFisher Scientific) was used for the western blot loading control at 1:1000 dilution. Donkey anti-rabbit (LI-COR) IRDye® 800CW and goat anti-rat (ThermoFisher Scientific) Alexa Fluor® 680-conjugated secondary antibodies were used at 1:5000 dilution for western blot.

Total protein extract was isolated from human tissue using TRI Reagent (T9424, Sigma-Aldrich, Madrid, Spain) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Total protein extracts were denatured using 2.5 mmol/l dithiothreitol at 100 °C for 5 minutes and then 40 μg of each denatured samples was subjected to 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (IPVH00010, Millipore, Barcelona, Spain) for 90 minutes at 1 mA/cm2 as described previously.38 (link) Membranes were incubated with polyclonal rabbit anti-Ctip2 (overnight at +4 °C, dilution of 1 µg/ml; Abcam Ab28448) and anti-Actin (20 minutes at RT, dilution of 1:20,000, MP Biochemicals), diluted in immunoblot buffer (Tris-buffered saline (TBS) containing 0.05% Tween-20 and 5% no-fat dry milk).

Slices were used for detection and quantification of Ctip-2, NeuN, Sox-2, Ki67, S100-β, GFAP, or Iba-1 immunofluorescence. After preincubation for 1 h with Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Triton X-100 (pH 7.5), sections were sequentially incubated overnight at 4ºC with the following polyclonal antibodies: (i) anti-Ctip-2 (ref. ab28448, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) used at 1:400; (ii) anti-NeuN (ref.

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.
