Caption: Immunofluorescence (IF) of ExpiCHO cells transfected with human NTN1 and labeled with Anti-NTN1 [IPI-NTN1.45] (Addgene #259427). Left image shows three channels: IPI-NTN1.45 (magenta), GFP transfection control (green), and DAPI (blue). Right image only shows IPI-NTN1.45 and DAPI. Scale bar = 20 µm. B) Combined quantification of multiple images of the same transfected cells taken at 10X magnification. Anti-NTN1 [IPI-NTN1.45] labeling of human (left) and mouse (right) Anti-NTN1 [IPI-NTN1.45] is shown in the top row, and compared to a positive (left) and negative (right) control in the bottom row. For both panels, Anti-NTN1 [IPI-NTN1.45] was used at a 1 µg/mL (1:1,000 dilution).

Additional Information

Additional Information

Confocal images taken at 40X magnification on an ImageXpress confocal HT.ai microscope.

For quantitative data, GFP-positive cells were identified via the neural network CellPose, then the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the far-red channel for each cell, representing Anti-NTN1 [IPI-NTN1.45 ] labeling, was recorded. Each histogram displays the number of cells with MFIs ranging from below 100 (background fluorescence) to 22000 (saturation).

Controls

Positive control: Anti-V5 [IPI-SV5-Pk1] (Addgene #218107) used to confirm IF labeling efficacy (since construct expressing target also has a V5 tag).

Negative control: Rabbit IgG Isotype Control [IPI-MOPC-21] (Addgene #237822) used to confirm lack of nonspecific binding to the sample.
