Isolation and Analysis of Proteoglycans and Glycosaminoglycans from Archaeological Bones and Teeth

Authors: Yvette May Coulson-Thomas, Vivien Jane Coulson-Thomas and Andrew L. Norton, date: 04/05/2017, view: 2136, Q&A: 0

We have developed methods for isolating proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans from archaeological bones and teeth. These methods have been previously published (Coulson-Thomas et al., 2015) and are described here in more detail. In the case ...

3D Stroma Invasion Assay

Authors: Yvette May Coulson-Thomas and Vivien Jane Coulson-Thomas, date: 03/20/2017, view: 2443, Q&A: 0

We have developed a 3D co-culture system composed of fibroblasts and colorectal cancer cells that enables us to study the desmoplastic reaction. This method also enables us to study the influence of the desmoplastic reaction on the migration of ...

In vitro Chondrogenic Hypertrophy Induction of Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Authors: Sang Young Jeong, Miyoung Lee, Soo Jin Choi, Wonil Oh and Hong Bae Jeon, date: 12/05/2016, view: 3879, Q&A: 0

To investigate underlying mechanism of chondrogenic hypertrophy, we need proper in vitro hypertrophic model of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This protocol describes our defined method for induction of in vitro chondrogenic ...

Phagocytosis Assay of Microglia for Dead Neurons in Primary Rat Brain Cell Cultures

Authors: Xiurong Zhao, Liyan Zhang, Shun-Ming Ting and Jaroslaw Aronowski, date: 04/20/2016, view: 4233, Q&A: 0

Clearance of dead brain tissue including the dead neurons through phagocytosis is an endogenous function of microglia in the brain, which is critical for inflammation resolution after ischemic stroke or head trauma. By regulating the function or ...

Muscle Function Assessment Using a Drosophila Larvae Crawling Assay

Authors: Yanina Post and Achim Paululat, date: 07/20/2018, view: 249, Q&A: 0

Here we describe a simple method to measure larval muscle contraction and locomotion behavior. The method enables the user to acquire data, without the necessity of using expensive equipment (Rotstein et al., 2018). To measure contraction ...

Mouse Mammary Gland Whole Mount Preparation and Analysis

Authors: Cornelia Tolg, Mary Cowman and Eva A. Turley, date: 07/05/2018, view: 486, Q&A: 0

The mammary gland undergoes extensive remodeling during pregnancy and is also subject to neoplastic processes both of which result in histological changes of the gland epithelial structure. Since the mammary tree is a complex three-dimensional ...
