20180409 – 20180411: Coating and transfection for ANO2 (perm – no perm)

Day 1- 2018.04.09:

  • Prepare 3 plates of 60mm of diameter with 24 coverslips (9 mm)
  • Treatment with Poly-D-Lysine (diluted 1/40 with boratte buffer)
  • Incubate for 1h (37ºC, 5% CO2).
  • Wash with PBS 1x (4 times)
  • Trypsin-EDTA a plate of HEK293.
  • Counting
  • For every plate: 5ml of HEK medium + the volume that correspond to 800.000 of cells
  • Incubate at 37ºC for 24h.

Day 2- 2018.04.10:

[ANO2] = 590.1 ng/mcl

  • For every plate  –> 8 microg of DNA + 12 microL of Lipofectamine. In this case (x3 plates):
    • 40,7 mcl of DNA in 0,75 ml of Optimem
    • 36 mcl Lipo in 0,75 ml of Optimem.
  • Incubate at RT for 5 min.
  • Unify the DNA solution with the Lipo solution and incubate at RT for 30 min.
  • For every plate: 500microL of the mix DNA-lipo
  • Incubate O/N at 37ºC.

Day 3- 2018.04.11:

  • Fix with PFA 4% (aprox 5 ml/plate). Incubation at RT during 10min.
  • Wash with PBS 1x
  • Permeabilize with Triton 0’3 % (only 2 of the 3 plates, the other one without permeabilization)
  • Wash with PBS 1x
  • Blocking solution: 5% goat serum in PBS for 1h at RT.
  • Remove the blocking solution and freeze at -80ºC.

Check the transfection – ICC:

  • Take 2 coverslips from the plates with permeabilized cells, and 2 coverslips from the plates with non-permeabilized cells (blocked with goat serum 5%)
  • Patient’s sera diluted 1/100 with 5 % Goat Serum. Samples:
    • 151 (Multiple Sclerosis sera collection)
    • Negative control
  • Primary antibody: ANO2 (TA316534 OriGene)  diluted 1/500
  • Secondary antibody: GAR488 + GAH594 diluted 1/1000
  • Vectashield mounting medium

Results: well transfected
