Immunohistochemical Analysis of TLR2 and TLR4 in Acanthamoeba Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The paraffin-embedded sections (3–5 μm) of kidneys and heart of control mice and hosts infected with Acanthamoeba spp. were stained to visualize TLR2 and TLR4 proteins. Immunohistochemistry was performed using specific primary rabbit polyclonal antibodies against TLR2 and TLR4 (Cat# sc-10739 and sc-30002, respectively; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Oregon, USA) at a 1:500 dilution. The procedure of immunohistochemical staining is described by Kot et al. [11 (link)]. Briefly, the sections were microwaved to recover antigenicity and then incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Subsequently, the sections were stained with an avidin-biotin-peroxidase system with diaminobenzidine as the chromogen (Cat# K0679; DakoCytomation Inc., Carpinteria, CA, USA). The sections were washed in distilled H2O and counterstained with hematoxylin. In negative controls, samples were not incubated with primary antibodies. Positive samples were determined microscopically by identifying brown pigmentation. Samples were evaluated using a light microscope (DM5000B; Leica, Wetzlar, Germany).

Cells were homogenized in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitors and centrifuged at 15,000 g for 15 min at 4°C. The protein concentration was determined according to the manufacturer’s instructions of the Pierce BCA Protein Assay kit (Rockford, IL, United States). Western blots were performed with 20–50 μg of protein. Proteins were separated in 8–10% SDS-PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. Western blot analysis for TLR2 (SC10739, Santa Cruz, United Kingdom, diluted 1:500), TLR4 (SC30002, Santa Cruz, United Kingdom, diluted 1:1,000), NFκB (ab16502, Abcam, United Kingdom, diluted 1:1,000), p-p65 (ab86299, Abcam, United Kingdom, diluted 1:1,000), PCK2 (ab70359, Abcam, United Kingdom, diluted 1:1,000), β-actin (AP0060, Bioworld Technology, United States, diluted 1:10,000), AKT (BS1007, Bioworld Technology, United States, diluted 1:1,000), mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) (BS7319, Bioworld Technology, United States, diluted 1:1,000), COX Ⅳ (AP0707, Bioworld Technology, United States, diluted 1:1,000) were carried out according to the recommended protocols provided by the manufacturers. Images were captured by Versa Doc 4000MP system (Bio-Rad, United States) and the band density was analyzed with Quantity One software (Bio-Rad, United States).

To identify interactions between the five TIR domain containing proteins and TLR2 or TLR4, co-immunoprecipitation using DynabeadsTM Protein G (Thermo Fisher) was performed. Abs against TLR2 (SC-10741, anti-rabbit, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), TLR4 (SC-10739, anti-rabbit, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), MyD88 (PA1-9072, anti-goat, Thermo Fisher), MAL (PA1-12815, anti-rabbit, Thermo Fisher), TRIF (PA5-20030, anti-rabbit, Thermo Fisher), TRAM (PA5-23115, anti-rabbit, Thermo Fisher), and SARM (PA5-20059, anti-rabbit, Thermo Fisher) were incubated with Dynabeads Protein G. The bead-bound Abs were then used for immunoprecipitation in the presence of cell lysates. Bound material was analyzed using a Western blot.

Immunofluorescence staining was performed for the following primary polyclonal rabbit TLR -2 (1:200 dilution; sc10739; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC), TLR -3 (1:200 dilution; sc28999; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC), TLR -4 ((1:200 dilution; sc30002; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC) and TLR -7 ((1:200 dilution; sc30004; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC). A goat anti-rabbit antibody TRITC- ((1:200 dilution; sc2780; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC) was used as a secondary antibody. All images were acquired using microscope Leica DM RXA2 and DM RA2 (Leica Microsystems Wetzlar GmbH, Germany) with Hamamatsu ORCA-Flash 4.0 V2 camera (Hamamatsu Photonics Deutschland GmbH, Germany).

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.
