PIEZO 1 ICC
- Human Piezo 1 transfected HEKs 293 grown in coverslips . Fixed with PFA 4% and blocked with 5% goat serum in PBS. NOTE: Patient 00-1248 (IP) was also tested in Piezo 1 transfected and permeabilized HEK cells.
- PBS
- Blocking: 5% goat serum in PBS
- Patient’s sera diluted 1/100 (IgG) with 5% goat serum in PBS.
- Primary Ab: No primary antibody was used as cells incorporated GFP
- Secondary Abs: GAH 594 (1/500) IgG
- Vectashield mounting medium
RESULTS
All samples are negative.
