Banker, G., and Goslin, K. (1998). doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.02-03-00284.1982, Terenzio, M., Koley, S., Samra, N., Rishal, I., Zhao, Q., Sahoo, P. K., et al. When comparing the means of two groups taking one variable into account, two-tailed t-tests were performed. We additionally compared the processing workflow between puromycin-positive and puromycin-negative cells and determined that despite possible noise enhancement, positive puncta could be significantly detected over background (Figure 3F, right graph). RNA localization and localized translation are especially relevant in polarized cells like neurons where neurites extend dozens to hundreds of centimeters away from the soma. The rotation time r and static fluorescence anisotropy r1 for Cybesin in cancerous tissue were found to be 1.4 times and ~10 times larger than those for normal prostate tissue, respectively. (2006) provide some excellent examples of EEMs collected with and without the various options of reference detector and spectral corrections. Data represent the average value of 1020 sampled cells per condition shown as individual data points, and the mean and median of 6 independent experiments (n = 6). [4]. 12.6. Images show the same cells used as examples for the workflow in Figure 1. The examples discussed earlier have the light source and detector placed outside the microchip. doi: 10.1038/nature03885, Yarmolinsky, M. B., and Haba, G. L. (1959). Local translation in neuronal compartments: how local is local? Step 1: Import Image: Open Image J, FileOpen: Open the Image to be Following the standard immunocytochemistry procedure, cells were incubated for 20 min at room temperature with SYTO RNASelect green fluorescent dye in PBS (500 nM, S-32703, Invitrogen). Well, you measure where it is supposed to be red. At this time, a scroll bar appears at the bottom of the picture. doi: 10.1073/pnas.59.4.1284, Graber, T. E., Hebert-Seropian, S., Khoutorsky, A., David, A., Yewdell, J. W., Lacaille, J. C., et al. welcome to the forum! Natl. SYTO-positive discrete puncta were scored with the particle analyzer in 15 bins covering a distance of 150 m from the edge of the soma. Scale bar, 50 m. Sorry, this post was deleted by the person who originally posted it. The insertion channel ended in a PDMS microlens which focused light to a point, depending on the radius of curvature of the lens, inside the fluidic flow channel. To verify that puromycin labels newly synthesized proteins, 40 M of the translation inhibitor anisomycin (Sigma Aldrich) was co-incubated with puromycin. Additional details for generation of correction factors can be found in Lakowicz (2006). 2, 284291. Neurosci. Adjust the detector settings: Depending on the desired range of fluorescence intensity readings, adjust the flow cytometers voltage and power settings to optimize the dynamic range of your flow cytometer. (3) Fluorescence intensity measurement is one of the most common techniques used for LOC systems owing to its high sensitivity, selectivity, readily available fluorophores, and labeling chemistry. Local somatodendritic translation and hyperphosphorylation of tau protein triggered by AMPA and NMDA receptor stimulation. Perhaps you will want to know the Max and Min values, so you can ensure that the camera's sensor wasn't saturated. Prepare the specimen chamber: Place your sample in the flow cytometers specimen chamber and circulate it for at least 5 minutes to ensure that the sample is evenly distributed within the chamber. Calculate the baseline or background signal by measuring the mean fluorescence intensity of the negative control sample. Nonetheless, such beads have been used to semiquantitate the expression of specific antigens on the surface of leukemic cells at the time of disease presentation and to then demonstrate that the level of expression of these antigens is specific to the malignant clone when compared with normal immature bone marrow mononuclear cells that arise in patients after chemotherapy (3). Proc. Is that all what I need to do or do I need afterwards to click select in order to apply the selected thresholding method to the opened image? (L) Spearman correlation between non-assisted [wA (DMSO, A)] or assisted quantification [wB (DMSO, A)] of translation sites (# puromycin foci) and protein production (mean puro intensity). Subcellular protein delivery is especially important in signal transduction and cell behavior, and is typically achieved by localization signals within the protein. Now go and select a region next to your cell that has no fluorescence, this will be your background. Given ImageJs heavy development this guide will always remain incomplete. An example is presented below: A bead preparation containing unlabeled beads plus seven bead populations expressing increasing amounts of fluorochrome was analyzed by flow cyto-metry, and the resultant fluorescent peaks were arrayed as log-amplified data (Fig. Dieterich, D. C., Hodas, J. J., Gouzer, G., Shadrin, I. Y., Ngo, J. T., Triller, A., et al. Prepare samples for flow cytometry: Label cells with a flourescent marker that can be detected by a flow cytometer. (1982). and how do I use the DAPI nuclei stains to "normalize" the MFI data like my mentor said - does it have anything to do with counting the number of nuclei/DAPI stains and relating it to the MFI value from the red signal? A significantly distinct distribution in the levels of newly produced proteins was observed in A-treated neurites compared to controls (positions beyond 20 m, Figure 2G). Figure 2. Graphs represent each scored value per distance using both methods in DMSO- (1, blue) and A-treated neurons (2, red) cultured in 7 independent experiments (n = 7). Figure 5.1. In these experiments, green and red channels corresponding to RNA (SYTO, Figure 5E) and protein (puromycin, Figure 5E) were binarized in parallel and colocalization between objects in both channels was calculated using the AND function in the FIJI/ImageJ image calculator. (Fig. Figure 2.1. Georges, in Encyclopedia of Modern Optics, 2005. An alternative solution for you could be to use Ilastik for a segmentation of foreground and background. Photons emitted from contrast agents are composed of ballistic, snake and multiple scattering photons from surface or subsurface. 3- When I want to threshold an image, I usually go to (imageadjustcolor threshold), then I select a thresholding method f.x Huang. On the other hand, images were filtered with the convolver in FIJI/ImageJ applying the default normalized kernel. When one would like to determine only the shape of the fluorescence spectrum, it is not necessary to dilute a solution so muchespecially in the case where a quantum efficiency of fluorescence is so low that the fluorescence is not clearly distinguished from Raman scattering. Thus, the combination of RNA and protein staining techniques followed by image processing and binarization, and object-based colocalization can be successfully used to detect sites of local RNA translation in neurons. The fluorescence intensity for detection of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-tagged albumin molecules almost doubled in the case of PDMS lenses as compared to a flat airPDMS interface. A transient bimodality forms which becomes well-defined after 18 h. As soon as there are less and less uninfected cells the bimodality vanishes (22 h) and only infected and more and more apoptotic cells contribute to the overall cell distribution. Thus, we next tried our assisted quantification method in neurites positive for the axonal protein Tau. and how do I use the DAPI nuclei stains to "normalize" the MFI data like my mentor said - does it have anything to do with counting the number of nuclei/DAPI stains and relating it to the MFI value from the red signal? Slide the two slider below to change the marked area. Altogether, this study provides a simple method of quantifying local RNA translation foci using object-recognition and object-based colocalization analyses which allows a better understanding the effect of A142 in neurites. Acad. The larger r1 observed in Cybesin (Cytate)-stained cancerous tissue compared with that in normal tissue (as indicated in Table12.2) can be explained by the higher uptake of Cybesin (Cytate) in cancerous prostate tissue. Alzheimers disease (AD), like other neurodegenerative diseases, is characterized by synaptic dysfunction during early stages (Palop and Mucke, 2010). Run the sample through the flow cytometer: Collect data from cell populations labeled with the fluorescent marker. Coble, in Subsea Optics and Imaging, 2013. The total fluorescent intensity of the puromycin within the desired interval (soma, neurites, etc) disregarding the bin position is shown as (mean puro intensity; step 5i). 4- As my study include several groups (control vs disease), how can I set the same threshold to all images? Scale bar, 10 m. If there are similar numbers of cells in each field of view across all your conditions, and they appear to be of similar sizes, then you can probably compare them directly. However, in the 19th century, the possibility of neurites, especially axons, producing their own proteins locally was already hypothesized (review in Bolton, 1901). ###p < 0.001 5 vs. 30 mins puromycin in DMSO-treated cells; ####p < 0.0001 5 vs. 30 mins and 10 vs. 30 mins in A-treated neurons; ***p < 0.001 DMSO vs. A, 30 mins puromycin; two-way ANOVA followed by Tukeys multiple comparison test. ~ DB. 13, 308324. Briefly, hippocampi were dissected from embryonic brains and dissociated in TrypLE Express (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham MA, United States) for 10 min at 37C. Image color quantification (manual): This method involves visually assessing the intensity of the immunofluorescent staining in the predetermined regions of interest and assigning a numerical score to it. I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. To calculate the total translation foci in the soma or in neurites or in any other desired interval disregarding the bin position, values retrieved from each bin of interest were summed up (Figure 1; workflow A; step 5ii). We first performed edge detection to find discontinuities in our puromycin labeling that could result from a punctate staining arising from discrete positive foci. (a) Schematic of the experimental setup, (b) cross-sectional view of the device, and (c) fluorescence intensity response of the device for FITC-tagged albumin. So you need to split channels into RGB and work with the Red channel. Images were converted to 8-bit and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask. We have developed a strategy to enhance puromycin hotspots in neurites based solely on image processing and the assisted quantification of the resulting objects (Figure 1; workflow B). doi: 10.1038/nmeth.3319, Torre, E. R., and Steward, O. Cells were washed with cold PBS with 3 g.ml1 digitonin (Sigma Aldrich) and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA), 4% sucrose in PBS. To avoid the growth of glia, half of the medium was replaced with fresh medium containing 20 M of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine and uridine (Sigma Aldrich, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) every 3 days. Now let's introduce how to analyze immunohistochemistry by Image J. Spatially stable mitochondrial compartments fuel local translation during plasticity. In neurons, however, the positioning of the rough ER (RER) with respect to distal sites of neurites does not explain how in some experimental setups that allow to study the local response of dendrites and axons (reviewed in Holt et al., 2019) newly synthesized proteins are detected peripherally, unless they are produced locally beyond the canonical ER. Acad. (b) Time-dependent fluorescence anisotropy calculated using Eq.12.7 in the text and the measured data shown in Fig.12.5(a,b). The graph shows the average number on puncta represented as Log2 (SYTO foci + 1) vs. distance SEM measured in 6 independent experiments (n = 6). To overcome this, evanescent field-based sensing systems may be utilized, as was done by Hofmann etal. The parameters of f, r, r1 and r0 for Cytate were analyzed and obtained using a procedure similar to that described above. Fluorescence intensity is an important parameter that can be used to measure the concentration of a target in a fluorescence detection method. It must be noted that the values used for fluorescence intensity are not standardized between manufacturers, so this is not a quantitative value in the true sense of the word. (C) Following workflow B, selected neurites were straighten, smoothen and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask (smooth > binary > MaxEntropy). 1 and 2: no puromycin incubation in DMSO- and A-treated neurons, respectively. 5- How can I threshold and measure the mean value in batch of images automatically without the need to manually open single images one by one, which is very time consuming?. Number of puromycin foci per bin, corresponding to translation sites, was quantified (Log2 (# puromycin foci + 1) vs. distance; step 4ii). Since experiments were always compared using a randomized block design (see Statistical Analyses), direct comparison between neurites imaged with different cameras is never performed. Cambridge: MIT Press. rectangle, circle, polygon or freeform), From the Analyze menu select set measurements. You should now see a popup box with a stack of values for that first cell. (D) Discrete puromycin puncta were measured in DMSO- and A-treated neurons in 15 bins covering a distance of 150 m from the cell nucleus using the concentric_circles plugin. Shorter exposures to puromycin were also performed in order to minimize the possible detection of newly synthesized proteins diffused from the soma. doi: 10.1038/nn.2580, Feig, S., and Lipton, P. (1993). Cell Neurosci. This means that the distributions, although appearing Gaussian, are actually "log normal" distributions in which the mean fluorescence intensity will be skewed to the right; that is, the mean will overestimate the true average fluorescence intensity. On the one hand DMSO- and A-treated neurites were selected from raw images (represented as heatmaps; 1 and 2 in Figure 3A) with a segmented line 20 or 40 pixels wide and straighten (1 and 2; Figure 3B). Additionally, puromycin hotspots were readily visible in distal sites of the neurites, especially in A-treated cells (4, intensity profile and heatmap in Figure 2B). Bldg C17, Optics Valley International Biomedicine Park, Wuhan, China. Box and whisker graph representing the total fluorescent intensity of the calreticulin staining along 130 m of calreticulin- and puromycin-positive neurites. 2.10 Statistical analysis Calculate the standard deviation (SD) of the mean fluorescence intensity values across all samples or conditions. The use of a two-dimensional (2D) PDMS lens in a microfluidic device with channels for both liquid flow and insertion of optical fibers for fluorescence excitation (Fig. In previous studies I used to use imageJ to measure the mean value (open image>analyze>measure). After imaging, signals corresponding to neuritic RNAs and proteins are filtered with a Laplacian operator to enhance the edges. Figure 9 clearly exhibits the influence of the viscosity of the solvent on the diffusion of microspheres. 5.2). Analyze the data: Use software programs such as FlowJo or CellQuest to analyze the data and display the results in graphical format. More importantly the effect of A was restricted to neurites and did not affect the neuronal soma (Figure 2J) in accordance with previously published data (Walker et al., 2018). J. Neurosci. Micrographs show colocalized objects (translating RNAs, cyan) detected within the last 120 m (distal) of Tau positive neurites (magenta). We sought to increase the changes of detecting discrete translation sites since dendrites have been historically reported to have a higher translation capacity than axons (Rangaraju et al., 2017) but because changes in local neuronal translation upon A treatment were first described in axons (Baleriola et al., 2014), we applied the same processing workflow to neurites stained with the axonal marker Tau. Co-localized objects were obtained with the AND function in the image calculator [cyan in (E)] and scored in distal sites of Tau-positive neurites with the particle analyzer. Reactivation of stalled polyribosomes in synaptic plasticity. 1, 2, and 3, DMSO-treated cells exposed to puromycin for 5, 10, and 30 mins, respectively; 4, 5 and 6, A-treated cells exposed to puromycin for 5, 10, and 30 mins, respectively. The measurement of relative fluorescence intensity in this case is quite adequate for the required purpose, but to compare experiments run on different days or between collaborating centers, it is valuable to have some form of semiquantitative measurement. Images were convolved with the default normalized kernel in FIJI/ImageJ and processed like III tubulin neurites as described before (Figure 4D). Copyright 2020 Gamarra, Blanco-Urrejola, Batista, Imaz and Baleriola. Are you going to be able to detect cells normally? Hi there Nil Kanatha Pandey , Glad to help. We just discussed this question in the RG forum a couple of weeks ago, please follow the link below whi In our system colocalized objects (cyan, Figure 5E) represent sites of actively translating RNAs. Different configurations in terms of placement of the light source and detector have been implemented in fluorescence-based microchips. WebAbout Press Copyright Contact us Creators Advertise Developers Terms Privacy Policy & The following five factors determine fluorescence intensity: The fluorescence intensity (em) is proportional to the intensity of excitation light (ex). The result is quantified in terms of the normalized autocorrelation function G(): where Ft=FtF. This increases the local viscosity, which is one of the reasons behind the longer decay time of Cybesin (Cytate) in cancerous prostate tissue compared with that in normal prostate tissue. Similarly, despite detecting a significant accumulation of discrete puromycin foci in both control and A-treated cells after 30 min of puromycin exposure compared to shorter pulses, these were significantly higher when A oligomers were added to the cultures (Figure 4F). Puromycin intensity was measured in 15 bins covering a distance of 150 m from the edge of the soma (Figure 4B). Our own results show that new-synthesized neuritic proteins measured at distal positions (100150 m from the cell nucleus) can be 20 to 30 times less abundant than those measured in the soma in a 30-min time frame (Figure 2). The solid lines display the fitting curves calculated using Eq.12.9. Since the first studies that unambiguously demonstrated the existence of local translation in neurons (Koenig, 1967; Giuditta et al., 1968; Steward and Levy, 1982; Torre and Steward, 1992; Feig and Lipton, 1993) most work in the field has focused on understanding the role of locally produced proteins in brain physiology. Local translation confers dendrites and axons the capacity to respond to their environment in an acute manner without fully relying on somatic signals. Scale bar, 10 m. Maceral (V, vitrinite; E, exinite; and I, inertinite) and mineral matter (M) bands and particles in a bituminous coal. In contrast, experimentally, the binding of the mAb of interest to the cells of interest is determined by the affinity of the mAb of interest for its specific antigen. Hi Shwan Javdan, today I can not access the third link you gave (from sydney.edu.vn). If you have the file can you share it to me? thank you very m mRNAs are localized to dendrites and axons as part of ribonucleoprotein (RNPs) complexes in a translationally repressed state. For now, just try setting a threshold which you feel encompasses the red regions entirely, while minimizing the black regions that are included. Thus, dysregulation of local protein synthesis might play a more relevant role in nervous system dysfunction than previously acknowledged. However, too concentrated a solution decreases the fluorescence intensity, as shown in Figure 3.22(a). Understanding dynamic early changes in the local proteome is in our view crucial to understand basic pathological mechanisms underlying AD and likely other neurological diseases. That gives you the Mean. Select the Analyze menu option, then select the Measure menu option. You should do this using one of the pre-set algorithms - there is a drop-down menu with names like "Default", "Otsu", "Yen". Universal toolkit for immunoprecipitation organizes IP/Co-IP experiments clearly, IF Experiment Promotion, Buy One Get One Free (Gift), Classification and function of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex, New arrivalExKine Pro Total Protein Extraction Kit for Animal Cultured Cells/Tissues, Anti--Actin Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (1C7), Anti-beta Actin Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody, Anti-GAPDH Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2B5), Anti--Tubulin Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (3G6), Anti-PCNA Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (1D7), Anti-PCNA Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (1D7), HRP Conjugated, Anti-Histone H3 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2D10). To overcome this situation, we have developed a simple method that helps visualize and quantify puromycin-positive sites in neurites by filtering and binarizing imaged cells using FIJI/ImageJ. In other experiments where some values equaled zero, one unit was added to all values in order to apply a Log2 function. Taking advantage of the fact that SYTO-labeled cells were also labeled with puromycin, after binarizing the images corresponding to both stains we applied the AND function in the image calculator which essentially retrieves the colocalization between objects. Box and whisker graphs show the total RNA-protein colocalized puncta in DMSO- and A-treated cells incubated with puromycin for 5, 10, or 30 mins [ (# SYTO-puro coloc.)]. Analyze the results: The data can be analyzed using software to measure mean flourescence intensity. In all cases 15 bins were quantified per cell, covering a distance of 150 m from the cell nucleus. Cell Biol. doi: 10.15252/embr.201745435, Wong, H. H., Lin, J. Q., Strohl, F., Roque, C. G., Cioni, J. M., Cagnetta, R., et al. A typical experiment in which one might want to measure relative fluorescence intensity is shown here, where the effect of tumor cells on the expression of CD69 on resting NK cells and T cells from the same donor was investigated. 1 and 2: no-primary antibody control (-Ab1) in DMSO- and A-treated neurons, respectively. All animal protocols followed the European directive 2010/63/EU and were approved by the UPV/EHU ethics committee. 2- Is measuring mean value the best way to get feedback about the fluorescence intensity (thereby the protein levels) in the region of interest? Figure 4. Neuron 85:e858. 12.7. Axonal mRNA localization and local protein synthesis in nervous system assembly, maintenance and repair. doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.13-03-01010.1993, Giuditta, A., Dettbarn, W. D., and Brzin, M. (1968). The concentration of the fluorescent reagent in the sample is expressed as C. The fluorescence intensity and concentration are proportional in the low concentration range. Histograms C and D show the effect of stimulation with the tumor cell lysate on the same cells. OLEDs also have flexibility in terms of fabrication and can be made in any desired size and shape by photolithographic techniques [6]. U.S.A. 59, 12841287. *p < 0.05; n.s, no significant; two-tailed t-test.). Shorter puromycin pulses were tested to decrease the chances of protein diffusion from the actual translation site. e.g. That's one use of the "Research" post flair. Mol. Therefore, the intensity of fluorescence em is expressed by the following formula: H. Itagaki, in Experimental Methods in Polymer Science, 2000. doi: 10.1038/ncb1916, Holt, C. E., Martin, K. C., and Schuman, E. M. (2019). n.s, no significant; two-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Sidaks post hoc test. 3 (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) and Hamamatsu EM-CCD ImagEM (Hamamatsu Photonics, Hamamatsu, Japan) digital cameras. A petrographic examination of a coal would normally involve first the optical microscopy of a polished surface with reflected white light to allow identification of vitrinite and inertinite group macerals, and by fluorescence to identify the liptinite group. Consider saying "thank you" in comment replies to those who helped. A portable microassembly of a fluorescence detection system was illustrated by Chediak etal. Figure 9. In particular, after a nerve injury, mRNAs are locally translated and newly synthesized proteins contribute to axonal regeneration (Terenzio et al., 2018). (2005). The default normalized kernel is sufficient to enhance structures in the periphery of the neurons smaller than 5 5 pixels and it is thus suitable to highlight puromycin-positive translation sites distal to the center of the cell nucleus (Figure 1; workflow B; step 1). The thin dashed and thin dotted line profiles display the parallel and perpendicular components, respectively. No statistical differences were detected between DMSO- and A-treated cells incubated with puromycin for 5, 10, or 30 mins. doi: 10.1073/pnas.1307747110, Hafner, A. S., Donlin-Asp, P. G., Leitch, B., Herzog, E., and Schuman, E. M. (2019). The ratio of peak intensities of total fluorescence for Cybesin-stained cancerous tissue and normal tissues (I0cancer/I0normal) is ~3.430.54. Measurements were performed by visual inspection in raw images (workflow Aii, wA) and with the particle analyzer in binarized images (workflow B, wB). Fluctuation analysis has proved to be a very versatile and powerful tool for the detection and dynamics study of biomolecules at ultralow concentrations on surfaces, in solutions, and in living cells. The results can then be used to measure the intensity of staining, as well as its degree of homogeneity. An accurate quantification of local translation foci, which is the aim of this study, might therefore give important clues to the extent to which changes in the local translatome contribute to the disease. Ankur Jain, Vinod Subramaniam, in Advances in Biomedical Engineering, 2009, Quenching is the decrease in the observed fluorescence intensity as a result of interaction of the ground or excited states of a fluorophore with other species in solution. Biol. 1C, proportional relationships cannot be established due to concentration quenching and fluorescence reabsorption in high-concentration areas; therefore, they are usually used in proportionally low concentration ranges. (2010). Inhibition by puromycin of amino acid incorporation into protein. (2014). We selected neurites from raw and binarized images in order to compare quantifications performed by visual inspection of the puromycin staining (manual; Figures 1, 3, workflow A) and by analyzing particles (assisted; Figures 1, 3, workflow B), respectively. The ionic strength of the solution is kept constant by adding KCl. Department of Medical Sciences, University of Aveiro, Portugal, Centre for Neuroscience and Cell Biology, University of Coimbra, Portugal. 16-bit images were coverted to 8-bit (step 3) and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask (step 4). FIGURE S1 | Workflows for image processing with or without applying the default convolution kernel (Laplacian filter). The best estimate of the average of log-arrayed fluorescent signals is the median or geometric mean, so always assess "median fluorescence intensity" rather than mean. The resulting puncta (cyan, Figure 5E) were scored in 10 m bins covering a distance of 150 m from the edge of the cell body. Use the selection tools to measure the area you want to measure. These properties can be explained by the preferential adsorption of contrast agents by cancerous tissue and the different structures of cancerous and normal prostate tissues (Pu et al., 2007; Pu et al., 2008; Pu et al., 2005). The line is the best linear fit to the average lifetime obtained by the frequency domain method (Table 2). Effect of dynamic quenching by iodide on rhodamine 6G. 3 and 4: 30 min puromycin incubation in DMSO- and A-treated cells, respectively. (D) The longest puromycin- and Tau-positive neurite was selected with a segmented line and straighten, smoothen and binarized with the MaxEntropy mask (MaxEntropy). p < 0.05 indicate a significant correlation. Both quantification methods revealed a significantly distinct distribution of translation sites in neurites in A-treated cells compared to controls (Figure 3E). After three PBS washes, cells were incubated for 1 hr at room temperature with fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies: anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 594 (1:200, A-11005, Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific), anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 (1:200, A-21206, Invitrogen), anti-chicken DyLight 350 (1:200, SA5-10069, Invitrogen), anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 647 (1:200, A-31573, Invitrogen) and anti-rabbit DyLight 405 (1:200, 611-146-002, Rockland Immunochemicals, Pottstown, PA, United States). As a complementary analysis method we developed 'NucTracer', which uses DAPI stained nucleoids as a proxy for single cells. Puromicyn is a tRNA analog, which is incorporated into the nascent polypeptide chain in a ribosome-catalyzed reaction. This soma-centric view of protein synthesis has slowly changed over the last two decades and it is now accepted that neurites contain mRNAs and components of the translation machinery and are thus able to produce proteins locally. 5B). A significant increase in puromycin intensity in A-treated neurites compared to controls was also detected with the longest puromycin exposure (Figure 4C). Cells were resuspended in plating medium. SYTO RNASelect green fluorescent dye selectively binds neuritic RNA (Figure 5A). If someday your work gets published, show it off here! Fluorescence levels in puromycin-labeled neurites (3 and 4, Figures 2AC) were well above the levels measured in negative controls (1 and 2, Figures 2AC). based on the provision of beads that are coated with known numbers of molecules of antibody to murine immunoglobulin Fc.
