Cells were plated on glass coverslips and collected after 3 days of differentiation. The coverslips were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 15 min, permeabilized in 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS, and blocked in 5% goat serum. The coverslips were incubated with primary antibody MHC 22287–1-AP (Proteintech) overnight at 4°C and then with Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated secondary antibody (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 h. Cells were stained with Hoechst 33342 (1 μg/mL; Invitrogen) for 2 min at room temperature, washed, and then mounted with ProLong Gold (Invitrogen). The primary and secondary antibodies were diluted 1:400 and 1:1000, respectively. Microscopy was performed using the Zeiss Axio Observer Live Cell microscope and ImageJ Software for analysis (Schneider et al., 2012 (link)).

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.
