Variable analysis
- Transduction of adult mouse DRG neurons with AAV-PHP.S encoding HA-Dendra2-nucleolin (full length and ΔGAR)
- Transfection of N2a or HEK-293 cells with HA-Dendra2-nucleolin (full length and ΔGAR) expression plasmids
- Live cell imaging of transduced DRG neurons and transfected N2a or HEK-293 cells
- Nikon Ti-LAPP illumination system equipped with a temperature-controlled chamber and an Andor EMCCD camera
- Incubation of cells with 10 µM Hoechst 33342 in medium for 10 min prior to acquisition
- Image acquisition in DAPI, GFP, TRITC, and DIC channels at ×60 magnification with Nikon CFI plan apochromat 60× oil lambda objective
- Removal of medium and immediate refocusing and imaging at t = 0, followed by careful addition of 1 ml ddH2O by pipetting and image acquisition using the same settings with 42 s interval for 5 min
- Image analysis using NIS-Elements software (Nikon)
- Negative control: Cells not transduced or transfected (not explicitly mentioned)

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.
