The cells were fixed in 1% paraformaldehyde for 30 min. After washing 3 times with PBS, the cells were blocked and permeabilized in blocking solution (PBS containing 3% bovine albumin and 0.2% Triton X-100) for 30 min at room temperature. The cells were then incubated with primary antibodies in blocking solution at 4 °C overnight, washed 3 times, and incubated with the corresponding secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature. The cells were washed twice and stained with DAPI (Sigma) for 5 min and then analyzed using a Leica DMI6000B microscope (Leica Microsystems). Primary antibodies used in this study were as follows: FoxA2 (R&D, AF2400, 1:200), Sox17 (RD, AF1924, 1:200), goat anti-Pdx1 (R&D, AF2419, 1:200), guinea pig anti-insulin (Dako, A056401, 1:300), and rabbit anti-C-peptide (Abcam, ab14181, 1:300).

For immunostaining,29 the undifferentiated and differentiated cells were fixed and permeabilized. Normal goat serum (NGS, Sigma, G9023) was used to block the sites of nonspecific binding of primary antibodies. The primary antibodies in the present study were mouse monoclonal proinsulin + insulin (Abcam, ab8304-50), rabbit polyclonal anti-C peptide (Abcam, ab14181), and mouse monoclonal insulin receptor beta (Abcam, ab8304-100). Cy5.29-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (Abcam, ab6564) and FITC-conjugated anti-mouse IgG (Sigma, F9137) were applied as secondary antibodies. The nuclei were counterstained by DAPI.

Single-Cell Analysis of Islet Cell Types

Human islets were dispersed into single cells using trypsin and filtration. Single islet cells were loaded onto scWest chips (Protein Simple, San Jose, CA, USA), then lysed, electrophoresed and UV-crosslinked according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Chips were probed with primary antibodies against somatostatin (1:30, A0566; Dako, Denmark), insulin B chain (1:10, M093-3; MBL, USA) and insulin C-peptide (1:15, ab14181; Abcam, UK). The appropriate Alexa-conjugated secondary antibodies were used. DNA was stained with Yoyo1 (Invitrogen, USA). Immunofluorescence was detected with the GenePix 4400A microarray scanner (Molecular Devices, USA) at 2.5 μm resolution.

Immunofluorescence Staining of Pancreatic Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The primary antibodies used in this study were: anti-nestin (Sigma, N5413), mouse monoclonal proinsulin+insulin, (Abcam, ab8304-50), rabbit polyclonal anti-C peptide (Abcam, ab14181) and mouse monoclonal insulin receptor beta (Abcam, ab8304-100) antibody. Cy5.29-conjugated antirabbit IgG (Abcam, Cambridge, USA, ab6564) and FITC-conjugated anti-mouse IgG (Sigma, St.
Louis, MO, F9137) were used as secondary antibodies. For immunoflourescence, the cells were cultured in six-well plates, fixed and permeabilized. They were then treated by normal goat serum (NGS, Sigma, G9023) to prevent nonspecific binding. Then, the cells were incubated with the primary antibody, and relevant secondary antibody. All of the antibodies were used at 1:1000 dilutions. Glycerol (70%) was used to mount the cover slips. Primary antibody was removed as negative controls for immunostaining.

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.
