UseofCalciumindicatorAMEsters
1.LoadCellswithCalciumIndicatorAMEsters:
AMestersarethenon-polarestersthatreadilycrosslivecellmembranes,andrapidlyhydrolyzedbycellularesterasesinsidelivecells.AMestersarewidelyusedforloadingavarietyofpolarfluorescentprobesintolivecellnon-invasively.However,cautionsmustbeexcisedwhenAMestersareusedsincetheyaresusceptibletohydrolysis,particularlyinsolution.Theyshouldbereconstitutedinhigh-quality,anhydrousdimethylsulfoxide(DMSO).DMSOstocksolutionsshouldbestoreddesiccatedat-20°Candprotectedfromlight.Undertheseconditions,AMestersshouldbestableforseveralmonths.
FollowingisourrecommendedprotocolforloadingAMestersintolivecells.Thisprotocolonlyprovidesaguideline,andshouldbemodifiedaccordingtoyourspecificneeds.
a) Preparea2to5mMAMestersstocksolutioninhigh-quality,anhydrousDMSO.
b) Onthedayoftheexperiment,eitherdissolvecalciumindicatorssolidinDMSOorthawanaliquotoftheindicatorstocksolutionstoroomtemperature.Prepareaworkingsolutionof2to20µMinthebufferofyourchoice(suchasHanksandHepesbuffer)with0.04%Pluronic®F-127.Formostcelllineswerecommendthefinalconcentrationofcalciumindicatorsbe4-5uM.Theexactconcentrationofindicatorsrequiredforcellloadingmustbedeterminedempirically.Toavoidanyartifactscausedbyoverloadingandpotentialdyetoxicity,itisrecommendedtousetheminimalprobeconcentrationthatcanyieldsufficientsignalstrength.
Note:ThenonionicdetergentPluronic®F-127issometimesusedtoincreasetheaqueoussolubilityofcalciumindicatorAMesters. AvarietyofPluronic®F-127solutionscanbepurchasedfromAATBioquest.
c) Ifyourcells(suchasCHOcells)containingtheorganicanion-transports,probenecid(2–5mM)orsulfinpyrazone(0.2–0.5mM)maybeaddedtothethedyeworkingsolution(finalinwellconcentrationwillbe1-2.5mMforprobenecid,or0.1-0.25mMforsulfinpyrazone)toreducetheleakageofthede-esterifiedindicators.
Note:AvarietyofReadiUse™probenecidincludingwatersolublesodiumsaltandstABIlizedsolutioncanbepurchasedfromAATBioquest
d) Addequalvolumeofthedyeworkingsolution(fromStepborc)intoyourcellplate.
e) Incubatethedye-loadingplateroomattemperatureor37°Cfor20minutes(especiallyFluo-8AM)to2hours,andthenincubatetheplateatroomtemperatureforanother30minutes.
Note1:Decreasingtheloadingtemperaturemightreducethecompartmentalizationoftheindictor.
Note2:IncubatetheCal-520AMlongerthan2hoursgivesbettersignalintensityforsomecelllines.
f) ReplacethedyeworkingsolutionwithHHBSorbufferofyourchoice(containingananiontransporterinhibitor,suchas1mMprobenecid,ifapplicable)toremoveexcessprobes.
g) RuntheexperimentsatdesiredEx/Emwavelengths(seeTable1).

UseofCalciumindicatorSalts
TodetermineeitherthefreecalciumconcentrationofasolutionortheKdofasingle-wavelengthcalciumindicator,thefollowingequationisused:
