5 protocols using in situ cell proliferation kit

1

Endothelial Cell Proliferation Assay

HUVECs (100,000 cells) were plated on coverslips in 0.5% FBS EndoGro for 24 h to synchronize cells, followed by incubation with 5 μM Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) with or without VEGF (20 ng/mL) for 24 h. The BrdU incorporation were detected using In Situ Cell Proliferation kit, FLUOS (Roche) with minor modification [31 (link)]. The cells were photographed with fluorescence microscope (Keyence, BZ-X700) using × 40 objective. The percentage of BrdU-labelled cells was determined by counting > 400 nuclei per samples as BrdU-positive/total nuclei.

Evaluating Cell Proliferation in Murine Lungs

BrdU labeling and immunostaining were used to evaluate cell proliferation in mouse lung sections [23 (link), 25 (link)]. BrdU (75mg/kg BW) was administered i.p. to mice at 4h prior to tissue collection. Mouse lung cryosections (5 μm) were stained with FITC-conjugated anti-BrdU using the In Situ Cell Proliferation kit following the manufacturer’s instructions (Roche Applied Science). Endothelial cells were stained with anti-CD31 (1:40, Abcam) and -vWF (1:250, Sigma-Aldrich) antibodies while nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Invitrogen).

The In Situ Cell Proliferation Kit, FLUOS (Roche, Mannheim, Germany) was used as per manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, animals were injected i.p. with bromo-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labelling reagent 16 h prior to tissue sampling. Immunostaining was also performed as instructed with the addition of 1∶100 rhodamine Griffonia simplicifolia lectin-1 (Vector Laboratories Inc., Burlingame, CA) to allow co-localisation of BrdU-labelled cells with vascular structures. Slides were mounted using 1∶10 Vectorshield plus DAPI: PBS to permit confirmation of nuclear localisation of BrdU-labelling.

Mouse Lung Cell Proliferation Assay

BrdU (75 mg/kg BW, Sigma-Aldrich) was intraperitoneally injected to mice 4 h prior to tissue collection. Mouse lung cryosections (6 µm thick) were stained with FITC-conjugated anti-BrdU antibody using the In Situ Cell Proliferation kit (Roche Diagnostics) [31] (link) and nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. Anti-vWF (1∶300, Sigma) and anti-CD31 antibodies (1∶40, Abcam, Cambridge, MA) were used to identify endothelial cells.

In vivo BrdU Labeling and Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For in vivo labeling with (bromodeoxyuridine) BrdU, 10 µl of the labeling reagent per 1 g body weight was injected into the hemocoel of staged larvae/pupae. Midguts were dissected 4 h later and then fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for 8 h. Paraffin sections of midgut samples were prepared as described above for histological analysis. The sections were processed using In Situ Cell Proliferation Kit, Fluos (Roche, Penzberg, Germany) according to manufacturer's instructions. The percentage of BrdU positive cells was assessed by Image J analysis (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). Automated particle counting analyze was performed for all images and percentage of positive cells were calculated according to obtained results.

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.
