Description
In Vitro
Guidelines[1] (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).
Labeling of Cells:
1. Incubate the cells according to your normal protocol.
2. Pre-incubate cells for 30 minutes with 20 μM MAPTAM.
3. Replace medium with HEPES buffer containing 2 μM fura 2 pentaacetoxymethyl ester and 1% BSA (wt:vol).
4. Perform measurements in HEPES buffer containing 1 mM CaCl2.

Ca2+ Staining Technique
Ca2+ staining is an experimental technique that utilizes specific fluorescent probes (such as Fluo-4 AM, Fura-2, etc.) to qualitatively or quantitatively detect dynamic changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations; this is achieved by monitoring the changes in fluorescent signals generated when these probes bind to free intracellular calcium ions. The underlying principle relies primarily on the presence of chelating groups within the probe's molecular structure that possess high affinity for calcium ions.
