IF troubleshooting: looking at an intracellular protein that localizes to the cell's and how to reduce increase in signal due to cell ruffles?

I am currently trying to stain for PI3KBeta in MDA-MB-231 cells. My current issue is that 1) beta stains all over the cell and 2) there is an increase in signal at the edge of the cell and this...

Dear Yassir Zargar

The best way is through optical measurement using calcium indicators, either chemical or genetically encoded.

There are many indicators, some of which are semi-quantitative (detect changes and relative amplitudes) while others (radiometric) are quantitative.

You can find many studies on the topic, preferably studies using the cells of interest.

Good Luck

These are good protocols for Fura-2 calcium indicator (quantitative).
