For analysis of capillary and arteriole density, gastrocnemius muscle sections (7 μm) were stained with isolectin-B4 (Vector Laboratories, B-1205; 1:100) to identify endothelial cells and the smooth muscle marker, α-smooth muscle actin conjugated to Cy3 (Sigma-Aldrich, C6198, 1:100) as previously described19 (link). High resolution images were acquired (at × 200) and counts from 18 randomly selected fields were averaged and expressed as the number of capillaries and arterioles (< 50 μm) per mm2 of muscular sections20 (link).
DNA fragmentation, associated with apoptosis, was detected in sections (7 μm) of gastrocnemius muscle using the commercially available terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL) kit (Click-iT Plus TUNEL Alexa Fluor 594 kit, Life Technologies). Sections were counterstained with Isolectin B4 to identify endothelial cells and DAPI to label nuclei.
Skeletal tissue fibrosis was detected in transverse sections (7 µm) of gastrocnemius muscle using Mason’s Trichrome staining.

For analysis of capillary and arteriole density, gastrocnemius muscle sections (7μm) were stained with isolectin-B4 (Vector Laboratories, B-1205; 1:100) to identify endothelial cells and the smooth muscle marker, a-smooth muscle actin conjugated to Cy3 (Sigma-Aldrich, C6198, 1:100) as previously described 20 . High resolution images were acquired (at x200) and counts from 18 randomly selected elds were averaged and expressed as the number of capillaries and arterioles (<50μm) per mm 2 of muscular sections 23 .
DNA fragmentation, associated with apoptosis, was detected in sections (7mm) of gastrocnemius muscle using the commercially available terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL) kit (Click-iT Plus TUNEL Alexa Fluor 594 kit, Life Technologies). Sections were counterstained with Isolectin B4 to identify endothelial cells and DAPI to label nuclei.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
