W 11/6

Release of internal calcium stores

3t3 on large-diameter MatTek dishes

4 dishes per group (plus extra) ~36

ATP

ATP kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:06

10 µM (=5.731 mg/L) ATP in HBS

Use ATP aliquots from Lab 6.1


10 µM ATP, Calcium-free

Lab 6.2: 0.75 mL per coverslip x 2 coverslips x 8 groups = 12 mL

Make 15 mL

  • 15 µL 10 mM ATP stock
  • in 15 mL Ca- HBS (1 µL 10 mM ATP stock per 1 mL HBS.)

8 1.6 mL aliquots for Lab 6.2

Bradykinin for 6.2

Bradykinin for 6.2 kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:19

1mg/mL Bradykinin stock
(= 1.0602 mM) Sigma B3259 - 1 mg septum bottle
MW = 106.02
Add 1 mL H2O to the 1 mg in the bottle (NO CALCIUM! - some will be used for the calcium experiments in Lab 7.2)


2 µM Bradykinin in HBS

Use bradykinin aliquots from Lab 6.1


2 µM Bradykinin, Calcium-free
(=2.12 µg/mL)

Lab 6.2: 0.75 mL per coverslip x 2 coverslips x 8 groups = 12 mL

~2 µL 1 mg/mL stock per 1 mL working solution

31.8 µL 1 mg/mL stock in 15 mL Ca-free HBS

Make 8 aliquots of 1.6 mL

Make more if necessary. (Aliquots should have been enough for 15 mL?)

Fluo-4-AM

Fluo-4-AM kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:20

Use aliquots from Lab 6.1

HBS for 6.2

HBS for 6.2 kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:21

HBS needed for rinsing and to make other solutions

(3 rinses + 1 sham dilution) x 4 expts/grp x 1 mL = 16 mL

Aliquot 25 mL per group

300 mL HBS

300 mL Ca-free HBS

Ionomycin for 6.2

Ionomycin for 6.2 kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:24

Ionomycin stock

Fisher or Invitrogen (Life Technologies) I24222

1 mM in DMSO or EtOH. 1 mg makes 1.34 mL stock.

3 µM Ionomycin in HBS
Dilute stock 1:333 in HBS: 3 µL/1 mL

24 µL in 8 mL, aliquot 800 µL

They only need 750µL, because they do one experiment in HBS, then two in Ca-free HBS.

3 µM Ionomycin in Ca-free HBS
Dilute stock 1:333 in Ca-free HBS: 3 µL/1 mL
45 µL in 15 mL

Takes a long time to thaw. Vortex.

Aliquot 1.55 mL so they can do two 750 µL experiments

Vasopressin for 6.2

Vasopressin for 6.2 kdorfman Mon, 11/04/2013 - 17:26

1 mg/mL (= 0.9225 mM) Vasopressin stock in water


1 µM dilution to make student solutions

1 µL 1 mg/mL in 922.5 µL water (NO CALCIUM, so stock can be used for Ca-free solutions )


10 nM (= 1.084 µg/mL) Vasopressin in HBS for students

Use Vasopressin aliquots from Lab 6.1


Calcium Free Vasopressin 10 nM

10 nM (= 1.084 µg/mL) for students

1 part 1µM dilution to 99 parts Ca-free HBS

Lab 7.2: 0.75 mL per coverslip x 2 coverslips x 8 groups = 12 mL

Make 15 mL: 150 µL + 15 mL Ca-free HBS

Make 8 aliquots of 1.6 mL
