Catalog

ASAP is committed to accelerating the pace of discovery and informing a path to a cure for Parkinson’s disease through collaboration, research-enabling resources, and data sharing. We’ve created this catalog to showcase the research outputs and tools developed by ASAP-funded programs.

Protocol

Confirming circRNA expression by qPCR

This protocol delineates a qPCR method to confirm the expression of circRNAs extracted from brain samples.

Protocol

Sample collection and processing for RNA analysis

This protocol delineates the steps taken to collect frozen postmortem human brain samples and process them for RNA extraction and analysis.

Protocol

Nuclei isolation and sorting from frozen human temporal cortex

This protocol is about nuclei isolation and sorting from frozen human temporal cortex.

Protocol

Transferrin uptake assay to measure Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in HIPCS derived neurons

This protocol is used to measure Transferrin uptake as a way to investigate Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in HIPCS derived neurons, or other cell types.

Protocol

FM1-43 endocytic uptake assay in HIPSC derived neurons

When the cells undergo another stimulation (through KCL or electrical), the FM1-43 dye containing vesicles will be released through exocytosis, thus, resulting in a decrease in the FM1-43 fluorescence intensity.
