20180604: ICC HTB-11 neurons (CNTN1, in 24 well plate)

Coating and seeding: 28.05.18 [see the post  20180601: ICC HTB-11 neurons (different cell fixation methods) ]

ICC protocol: 2 different protocols

  1.  Fixation before the ICC
    • Take one coverslip and put it in a 24 well plate
    • Fix with PFA 4% (aprox 1 ml/well). Incubation at RT during 15 min.
    • Wash with PBS 1x
    • Primary antibody: anti-CNTN1. Diluted 1/1000 in Rabbit Serum 1/40
    • Wash with PBS 1x
    • Secondary antibody: RAG488 IgG diluted 1/1000  in Rabbit Serum 1/40
    • Wash with PBS 1x
    • Vectashield mounting medium
  2.  Fixation after the Primary antibody incubation
    • Take one coverslip and put it in a 24 well plate
    • Primary antibody: anti-CNTN1. Diluted 1/1000 in differentiation medium (HTB11)
    • Fix with PFA 4% (aprox 1 ml/well). Incubation at RT during 15 min.
    • Wash with PBS 1x
    • Secondary antibody: RAG488 IgG diluted 1/1000 in Rabbit Serum 1/40
    • Wash with PBS 1x
    • Vectashield mounting medium

Results: les cèl·lules es veuen més enganxades, tot i que encara es perden moltes durant les incubacions. El resultat és millor en el protocol 2 (fixar després d’incubar in vivo amb l’anticòs primari).
