[Abstract]  Autophagy is a key player in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis in eukaryotes, and numerous diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, are associated with alterations in autophagy. The interest for studying autophagy has grown intensely in the last two decades, and so has the arsenal of methods utilised to study this highly dynamic and complex process. Changes in the expression and/or localisation of autophagy-related proteins are frequently assessed by Western blot and various microscopy techniques. Such analyses may be indicative of alterations in autophagy-related processes and informative about the specific marker being investigated. However, since these proteins are part of the autophagic machinery, and not autophagic cargo, they cannot be used to draw ... [摘要]  自噬是维持真核生物细胞稳态的关键因素,包括癌症和神经退行性疾病在内的许多疾病都与自噬的改变有关。研究自噬的兴趣在过去的二十年里急剧增长,并且还有用于研究这种高度动态和复杂过程的方法库。通常通过Western印迹和各种显微镜技术来评估自噬相关蛋白的表达和/或定位中的变化。这样的分析可能表明自噬相关过程的改变,并且关于正在研究的特定标记物的信息。然而,由于这些蛋白质是自噬机制的一部分,而不是自噬性货物,所以它们不能用于得出关于自噬载货流量的结论。在这里,我们提供了一个协议,通过使用长寿命的蛋白质降解测定来定量评估体积自噬流量。我们的程序追踪14 C缬氨酸标记的蛋白质的降解是简单和快速的,允许并行处理相对大量的样品,并且原则上可以与任何贴壁细胞一起使用线。最重要的是,它可以通过自噬途径定量测量内源货物流量。因此,它是研究自噬活动的黄金标准之一。

【背景】脉冲追踪标记方法已用于研究蛋白质周转数十年。在此处描述的长寿命蛋白质降解(LLPD)测定中,培养细胞的蛋白质组用14 ...

[Abstract]  Murine tumor models have been critical to advances in our knowledge of tumor physiology and for the development of effective tumor therapies. Essential to these studies is the ability to both track tumor development and quantify tumor burden in vivo. For this purpose, the introduction of genes that confer tumors with bioluminescent properties has been a critical advance for oncologic studies in rodents. Methods of introducing bioluminescent genes, such as firefly luciferase, by viral transduction has allowed for the production of tumor cell lines that can be followed in vivo longitudinally over long periods of time. Here we describe methods for the production of stable luciferase expressing tumor cell lines by lentiviral transduction. [摘要]  鼠肿瘤模型对于我们对肿瘤生理学知识和有效肿瘤治疗方法发展的进展至关重要。 这些研究的关键是能够跟踪肿瘤发展并量化体内肿瘤负荷。 为此,引入赋予肿瘤生物发光特性的基因已经成为啮齿动物肿瘤研究的重要进展。 通过病毒转导引入生物发光基因(例如萤火虫萤光素酶)的方法已经允许产生可以在体内纵向长时间地进行的肿瘤细胞系。 在这里我们描述了通过慢病毒转导产生稳定表达荧光素酶的肿瘤细胞系的方法。

【背景】体内跟踪细胞最重要的是能够通过微创方法从外部检测它们。使用来自萤火虫的荧光素酶(Photinus pyralis )的酶促生物发光是用于体内基于图像的细胞追踪的广泛使用的方法。生物发光已被用于各种体内应用,包括报告基因表达的无创成像(Herschman,2004),研究昼夜节律(Southern and Millar,2005),成像脑卒中(Vandeputte
