    Abstract

    This protocol contains a detail description of how to perform immunostaining on two different cell types, U2OS and iPSCs cells.

    It also describes how to perform live-cell imaging procedure using a Zeiss LSM900 confocal microscope in a temperature-controlled environment.

    Steps

    Immunofluorescence of U2 cells

    1.

    U2OS cells were washed once with PBS and immediately fixed by 4% EM-grade paraformaldehyde for 0h 10m 0s at Room temperature

    2.

    Cells were washed three times with PBS for 0h 10m 0s each time.

    3.

    Blocked and permeabilized for 0h 30m 0s in permeabilization buffer (5% FBS and 0.1% saponin in PBS)

    4.

    Cells were then incubated with 1:100 dilution of primary antibodies at 4°C 1h 0m 0s

    5.

    Cells were washed three times with PBS for 0h 10m 0s each time.

    6.

    Cells were incubated with 1:500 dilution of fluorophore-conjugated secondary for 0h 30m 0s at Room temperature

    7.

    Prolong Gold with DAPI was used as mounting solution

    8.

    Images were acquired with a Zeiss LSM900 confocal microscope and analyzed with Fiji/ImageJ software

    Immunofluorescence of hiPSC dopamine neurons

    9.

    Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS and 0.1% Triton-X was used for permablization 0h 10m 0s

    10.

    Blocked in 10% normal donkey serum for 1h 0m 0s Room temperature

    11.

    Cells were then incubated with 1:100 dilution of primary antibodies at 4°C 1h 0m 0s

    12.

    Cells were washed three times with PBS for 0h 10m 0s each time.

    13.

    Cells were incubated with 1:500 dilution of fluorophore-conjugated secondary for 0h 30m 0s at Room temperature

    14.

    Prolong Gold with DAPI was used as mounting solution

    15.

    Images were acquired with a Zeiss LSM900 confocal microscope and analyzed with Fiji/ImageJ software

    Live-cell imaging

    16.

    Cells were cultured in 35 mm glass bottom dishes (MatTek).

    17.

    HaloTag fluorescent ligands were added according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Promega).

    18.

    After incubation for 0h 15m 0s in the incubator (37°C and 5% CO2 ), the cells were quickly washed twice with PBS. The medium was replaced with Opti-MEM supplemented with 10% FBS.

    19.

    Imaging was performed using a Zeiss LSM900 confocal microscope in a temperature-controlled

    (37°C and 5% CO2) environment.
