Lysosomal Activity Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell lysosomal fluorescence intensity was estimated with a LysoTracker Red kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Beijing, China). Higher fluorescence intensity represents stronger lysosomal activity. LysoTracker Red was added to each well, and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 2 h according to the manufacturer’s protocol. LysoTracker Red was then removed, and fresh medium was added. A fluorescence microscope (Nikon Eclipse NI microscope, Nikon, Inc., Japan) was used for imaging. Lysosomes showed bright fluorescence staining, and the results were analyzed by ImageJ analysis software.

Autophagy Quantification in Drosophila Wing Discs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were washed three times with ice-cold PBS and were fixed for 15 min at room temperature with Immunol Staining Fix Solution (Beyotime, P0098) and then permeabilized with Immunostaining Permeabilization Buffer with Triton X-100 (Beyotime, P0096) for 20 min. Following permeabilization, nonspecific binding in the cells was blocked by Immunol Staining Blocking Buffer (Beyotime, P0102) for 1 h at room temperature. Then cells were incubated for 1 h with specific primary antibodies and after three washes with PBS, the cells were incubated for another 1h with secondary antibodies.
Lysosomal activity as a marker of autophagy in Drosophila wing imaginal discs was detected by the LysoTracker Red Kit (Beyotime, C1046). Imaginal discs dissected from third-instar larvae were collected in PBS and incubated with LysoTracker Red (1:3,000) for 15 min at 37 °C, washed with PBS three times prior to imaging. Primary antibodies included: rabbit anti-FoxO3A (1:200; Abcam, ab12162), mouse anti–Myc-tag (1:350, CST, 9B11), rabbit anti-FLAG antibody (1:200, Sigma). Secondary antibodies were anti-mouse CY3 (1:1,000) and anti-rabbit Alexa Flour 488 (1:500). All images were collected with a confocal microscope (Zeiss LSM 780).

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.
