A quick, cheap, and reliable protocol for immunofluorescence of pluripotent and differentiating mouse embryonic stem cells in 2D and 3D colonies
Immunofluorescent labeling is a widely used method to visualize endogenous proteins. It can be expensive and difficult to stain mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) because they require expensive growth media, prefer specific substrates, grow in 3D, and have loose cell-substrate adhesion. Here we prop...

Sumario: | Immunofluorescent labeling is a widely used method to visualize endogenous proteins. It can be expensive and difficult to stain mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) because they require expensive growth media, prefer specific substrates, grow in 3D, and have loose cell-substrate adhesion. Here we propose a half-a-day, cheap, easy-to-follow, and reproducible protocol for immunofluorescence of mESCs. This protocol has been streamlined to allow a fast visualization of the investigated proteins, and we provide tips specific to stem cell culture. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Chaigne et al. (2021).(1) |
