Figure Lengend Snippet: Activation of TSH-R on podocytes is detrimental. (a) qPCR data showing the average Ct value from 2 independent wells for tshr gene in mouse podocytes and mouse thyroid in comparison to the housekeeping gene gapdh . (b) Western blot analysis of lysates from mouse podocytes, mouse thyroid tissue (positive control) and human K562 cells (negative control) probed with the indicated antibodies. Representative blot from two independent experiments is shown. Migration of molecular weight standards is depicted on the left as kDa. (c) Histogram depicting the data from flow cytometric analysis performed on mouse podocytes with FITC-conjugated TSH-R antibody (blue) overlapped with the controls (unstained, red and FITC-conjugated IgG2a isotype control, green). 5000 events were collected and gated. Graph on the right shows the geometric mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) on Y-axis obtained from four independent experiments. Non-parametric two-tailed Students t -test was used to calculate the significance, * p≤0.05 . (d) Confocal micrographs of cultured mouse podocytes left untreated (UT), PAN treated (30 µg/ml), Normal rabbit IgG isotype or anti-TSH-R antibody (3 µg/ml each) for 24 h. Stains: merge of F-actin phalloidin-488 stained in green and DAPI in blue. Scale bar=20 µm. (e) Confocal micrographs of cultured mouse podocytes left untreated (UT), PAN treated (30 µg/ml), or TSH (25 and 50 nM) for 24 h. Stains: merge of F-actin phalloidin-488 in green and DAPI in blue. Scale bar=20 µm. (f) Quantification of the data in d, represented as percentage of cells with normal cell shape and size with transversal stress fibers. Non-parametric two-tailed Students t -test was used to calculate the significance, ** p≤0.01 and *** p≤0.001 . (g) Quantification of the data in e, represented as percentage of cells with normal cell shape and size with transversal stress fibers. Non-parametric two-tailed Students t -test was used to calculate the significance, *** p≤0.001 . (h) cAMP levels (in pmol/ml) normalized with the protein concentration (mg/ml), plotted as pmol/mg in the culture supernatants of mouse podocytes exposed to the indicated treatments for 60 min. Non-parametric two-tailed Students t -test was used to calculate the significance, *** p≤0.001 and * p≤0.05 . (i) qPCR analysis of DIO3 transcript in mouse podocytes upon PAN (30 µg/ml) and TSH (25 and 50 nM) treatment for 24 h. gapdh was used as the housekeeping gene; ** p≤0.01 and * p≤0.05 determined using non-parametric Students t -test.

Article Snippet: In a final volume of 50 µl containing 2 × 10 5 cells, staining was performed with 1:50 dilution of either Rabbit anti-TSH-R-FITC conjugated antibody (Bioss Antibodies, BS-0460R-FITC; RRID:AB_11042712) or normal mouse IgG-FITC (Santa Cruz, sc-2856; RRID:AB_737238) for 1 h at 4°C.

Article Title: Production of parathyroid-like cells from thyroid stem cells in co-culture environment

doi: 10.1097/MD.0000000000032009

Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunofluorescence staining of proteins in thyroid cells using confocal microscopy before differentiation protocol. (A) TSHR (membrane) and (B) TTF1 (nuclear), Thyroid cells stained in green for all proteins and counterstained in blue for nuclei. The cytoskeleton was stained with phalloidin red to observe cell morphology. Objective 40 × original magnification, scale bars represent 50 µm. TSHR = thyroid stimulating hormone receptor, TTF1 = thyroid transcription factor 1.

Article Snippet: For immunofluorescence imaging, to visualize cell-specific marker proteins, the following primary and secondary antibodies were used: rabbit polyclonal anti-calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) antibody (Abcam®, ab137408; 1:500), rabbit polyclonal anti-parathyroid hormone receptor 1 (PTH1R) antibody (Abcam®, ab75150; 1:500), rabbit polyclonal anti-thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) antibody (Abcam®, ab202960; 1:500), rabbit monoclonal Anti-thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1) antibody [SP141] (Abcam®, ab227652; 1:25), mouse monoclonal anti-parathyroid hormone antibody [rPTH/911] (Abcam®, ab234415; 1 μg/mL), goat anti-mouse IgM cross-adsorbed secondary antibody (DyLight® 594) (Invitrogen®, SA5-10152; 1:200) and goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (Abcam®, ab150077; 1:1000).
