20190502: ICC IgG HTB11 Neurons in MS patients

2019.04.25: Seed cells (in proliferation medium)

  • Coating with laminin 2’5 µg/ml diluted in Borate Buffer (for 1 h at 37ºC)
  • Wash 2-3 times with PBS
  • Seed aprox 10.000 cels/cm2  : 60 mm plate = 21 cm2
    • In this case –> 6 plates of 60 mm with 200.000 cells (with 26 coverslips)

2019.04.26: Differentiation

  • Change all the medium of the cells (differentiation medium)
    • Each time the new differentiation medium is changed, 10 μM retinoic acid (RA) is added –> stock solution -80ºC (diluted in ethanol 96 %): 0,01 M –> put 1 µl in every ml of differentiation medium (if we change the half of the medium, we have to add the double of RA)
  • Once the differentiation has begun, change the half of the differentiation medium every 2 or 3 days (for 6 to 8 days).

2019.05.02: ICC neuroblastoma neurons (day 7 of differentiation)

Samples: 101-148, negative control, positive control (15-198)

  • Fix for 15 minutes with PFA 4 %
  • Wash 3 times with PBS1x
  • Block for 1 hour with Goat Serum 5 %
  • Patient’s sera diluted 1/100 (1 h) –> in the box with parafilm, with the cells above
  • Wash 3 times with PBS1x
  • Secondary antibody: GAH488 IgG diluted 1/1000 (1 h) –> in the box with parafilm, with the cells above
  • Wash 3 times with PBS1x
  • Vectashield mounting medium

RESULT: Sample 114 and 124 were positive.
