Cell lysates were prepared by adding two times Laemmli sample buffer to sorted CD11b+Gr-1+Sca-1 and CD11b+Gr-1+Sca-1+ myeloid cells. The protein samples were resolved on 10 or 12% SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. Membranes were blocked in 4% bovine serum albumin in TBS-T for 1 hour at room temperature. Primary antibodies used were anti–Sca-1 (1:2000) from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA) and anti–β-actin (1:2500) from Cell Signaling Technology (Beverly, MA, USA). Secondary horseradish peroxidase–conjugated antibodies used were anti-mouse IgG and anti-rabbit IgG (all 1:5000) from Enzo Lifesciences (Farmingdale, NY, USA).

Multicolor Immunostaining of Cardiac Stem Cells

After rinsing with PBS and fixation for 20 min in 2.5% paraformaldehyde at room temperature, the cells were permeabilized with 0.25% Triton-X100 for 10 min. For immunostaining we used primary mouse anti-Isl-1 antibodies (Abcam) and mouse antibodies to sarcomeric alpha-actinin (Abcam), alpha-sarcomeric actin (Sigma-Aldrich) and cardiac troponin T (Abcam) pre-conjugated with Alexa 532, 546, 568, 594, or 647 according to Zenon technology (Invitrogen). Phycoerythrin-conjugated anti-Ki-67 antibodies were used for determination of proliferative capacity of CSCs. Commercially available FITC-conjugated anti-c-kit (Abcam) and anti-Sca-1 (Abcam) antibodies were also used at 1:100 dilution. Hoechst 33342 (10 μg/mL, Molecular Probes, USA) staining at 1:1000 dilution was used for detection of cell nuclei.
Confocal microscope Leica TCS SP5 provides an opportunity to simultaneously analyze several fluorescent tags in wide spectrum (from ultraviolet to infrared), thus it is possible to use several fluorochromes and visualize expression of CSCs markers of several types at a single sample. Intensity of the corresponding fluorochrome serves to establish a type of CSC which generated a colony or CICS.

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.
