Elyra 7 lattice sim super resolution microscope

Manufactured by Zeiss
Sourced in Germany

The Elyra 7 Lattice‐SIM Super‐Resolution microscope is a high‐performance imaging system that utilizes Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) technology to achieve super‐resolution imaging capabilities. The core function of the Elyra 7 is to enable the visualization and analysis of cellular structures and dynamics at a resolution beyond the diffraction limit of conventional light microscopy.

SH‐SY5Y were plated on a 35 mm Ibidi Glass Bottom dish at a concentration of 2 × 105 cells per dish. 48 h after seeding, cells were incubated with 1× NucSpot® Live 488 (Biotium Inc., USA) and 1× MitoView® Fix 640 (Biotium Inc., USA) for 30 min at 37°C prior to imaging. TNF was added immediately before starting the image acquisition. Imaging was carried out using an Elyra 7 Lattice‐SIM Super‐Resolution microscope (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) every 2 min for 30 min with a 63× oil objective (Plan‐Apochromat 63×/NA1.4). Image analysis was performed with Imaris 9.9.1 (Bitplane AG, Switzerland) using the Spot (mitochondria) and surface (nucleus) functions. Mitochondrial shortest distance to the nucleus is color‐coded.
Macrophages were plated on at 50,000 cells/well in μ‐Slide 8‐well chambers (80826, Ibidi, Martinsried, Germany) and incubated with 0.5 μM MitoTracker Green (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 15 min at 37°C prior to imaging. The nuclei were stained using 2 μM Hoechst (Thermo Fisher Scientific). TNF was added immediately before staring video recording. Imaging was carried out using a confocal microscope (LSM800, Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) and LD Plan‐Apochromat 40× objective.

Super-Resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fluorescence microscopy was performed using a Zeiss ELYRA PS.1 equipped with an LSM880 (Carl Zeiss, Jena) and a 20×, 63× oil, or 100× oil immersion objective or a C2+ system (Nikon). Super‐resolution images were generated by structured iIlumination microscopy (SIM) using 405, 488, and 561 nm widefield laser illumination. SIM confocal images were processed using the ZEN2.3 software (Carl Zeiss, Jena). For the p65 translocation assay, laser scanning microscopy was performed using the 405, 488, and 561 laser illumination set in individual channels to avoid cross‐talk. For live‐cell experiments, imaging was carried out using an ELYRA 7 Lattice‐SIM Super‐Resolution microscope (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) equipped with a 63× oil objective (Plan‐Apochromat 63×/NA1.4).

Imaging Stathmin and Tubulin in Migrating Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For stathmin and tubulin analysis on migrating cells, MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-157 cells were seeded in antibiotics-free DMEM on glass coverslips at a density of 4–6 × 104 cells/well in a 24-multiwell plate in biological triplicates. Cells were then silenced for HMGA1 and, for MDA-MB-157 cells, after 24 h, transfected with 1–2.5 µg of dsRED or dsRED-STMN for 48 h. After that, cells were scraped with a 200 µl tip and fixed after 4 h with PFA 4%. For p27 localization analysis MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-157 cells were grown on glass coverslips and silenced for HMGA1 for 72 h and then fixed in 4% PFA.
After fixation, cells were permeabilized in a solution with 0.3% of Triton X-100/PBS and saturated in 5% BSA/PBS. Subsequently, cells were incubated with the following primary antibodies: α-p27 (N-20) (Santa Cruz, catalog # sc-527), α-STMN (Cell Signalling, catalog # D1Y5A), α β-Tubulin (Sigma, catalog # T5168). As secondary antibodies we used α-rabbit IgG Alexa Fluor® 647 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog # A31573), α-mouse IgG Alexa Fluor® 488 (catalog # A32723), and α-rabbit IgG Alexa Fluor® 488 (catalog # A32731). Nuclei were stained with Hoechst 33342. Images were acquired using Elyra7 lattice SIM super-resolution microscope (Zeiss) with pco.egde sCMOS camera and ZEN Black software or a Nikon Eclipse e800 microscope with Nikon ACT-1, then images were analyzed with ImageJ.

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.
