Plattentyp: Pre-coated

Protokoll: The CytoSelect™ Cell Adhesion Assay Kit utilizes a Fibronectin-coated 48-well plate (see Adhesion Plate Layout below). First, cells are seeded onto the coated substrate, where the adherent cells are captured. Next, unbound cells are removed with consecutive washes. Finally, the adherent cells are lysed and subsequently detected with CyQuant® GR Dye.

Testdurchführung:

1. Under sterile conditions, allow the Fibronectin Adhesion Plate to warm up at room temperature for 10 minutes.
2. Prepare a cell suspension containing 0.1-1.0 x 106 cells/mL in serum free media. Agents that inhibit or stimulate cell adhesion can be added directly to the cell suspension.
3. Add 150 μL of the cell suspension to the inside of each well (BSA-coated wells are provided as a negative control).
4. Incubate for 30-90 min in a cell culture incubator. 3
5. Carefully discard or aspirate the media from each well (Note: Do not allow wells to dry). Gently wash each well 4-5 times with 250 μL PBS.
6. Prepare sufficient 1X Lysis Buffer/CyQuant® GR dye solution for all samples by diluting the dye 1:300 in Lysis Buffer (for example, add 4 μL dye to 300 μL of 4X Lysis Buffer and 900 μL of dH2O).
7. Add 200 μL of 1X Lysis Buffer/CyQuant® GR dye solution to each well containing cells. Incubate 20 minutes at room temperature with shaking.
8. Transfer 150 μL of the mixture to a 96-well plate suitable for fluorescence measurement. Read fluorescence with a fluorescence plate reader at 480 nm/520 nm.

Antigendetails

Hintergrund: Cell adhesion is a complex process involved in embryogenesis, migration/invasion, tissue remodeling, and wound healing. To perform these processes, cells adhere to extracellular matrix components (via adhesion receptors), forming complexes with components of the cytoskeleton that ultimately affect cell motility, differentiation, proliferation, and survival.
