Summary

自分の眉製の特殊な解剖ツール – このビデオでは、眉毛のナイフの使用を含むアフリカツメガエルの胚から主催者と動物極の外植片、の調製に用いられる技法を示しています。接着アッセイを組み立てるためのプロトコルも与え、その適切な開発のための重要な面の主催者や動物極細胞上に存在する主要な接着分子の存在のためのプローブです。

Protocol

準備接着チェンバース(注入/解剖前日) 接着アッセイチャンバーあなたが従来の複合顕微鏡を(ステージ上の光学位置)がある場合、それは低身長の付着室は、次のようにするためncecessaryです。倒立光学顕微鏡を使用している場合は、"NUNCのLab – Tek社チェンカバーガラスは、"単に使用され、ステップ#1へスキップする – 2。 40 × 24ミリ…

Materials

Material Name Type Company Catalogue Number Comment
1x MBS-H Buffer     Modified Barth’s medium: 1L recipe 5.14g NaCl 75mg KCl 0.2g NaHCO3 0.2g MgSO4•7H2O 60mg CaCl2•2H2O 80mg Ca(NO3)2•4H2O 2.38g HEPES, free-acid Adjust the pH to 7.4 with NaOH. Autoclave.
CMF-MBS Buffer     This is Ca2+/Mg2+-free version of MBS-H. 500ml recipe : 2.57g NaCl 37.5mg KCl 0.1g NaHCO3 1.19g HEPES, free-acid Adjust the pH to 7.4 with NaOH. Autoclave.
1% agarose/1x Barth’s plates       as many as the number of samples
1% agarose/CMF-MBS plates       as many as the number of samples
E-Cadherin/Fc chimera Reagent Sigma E-2278 Dissolve 0.1mg of solid E-cadherin in 100ul of 1x MBS-H containing 40% glycerol to make 100x master stock (1.0mg/ml). Store it in –20C. Make 1/100 dilution with 1x MBS-H to make 10ug/ml working solution just before you use. You need 200ul per samples of this working solution.
Fibronectin, 0.1% solution Reagent Sigma F-1141 This pre-made solution can be used as 50x stock. Make 1/50 dilution with 1x MBS-H make 20ug/ml working solution just before you use. You need 200ul per samples of this working solution. I do NOT recommend using solid Fibronectin, because it is difficult to dissolve at 0.1% concentration to make the stock solution. Although it is more expensive, this pre-made 0.1% solution is better to obtain consistent results.
