Immunohistochemical Staining of CD31 in Monkey Eyes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For immunohistochemistry (IHC), tissue sections of monkey eyes were de-paraffined with xylene and rehydrated through an ethanol series and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Antigen retrieval was performed by microwave treatment with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)/Tris buffer, pH9. Endogenous peroxidase was blocked with 0.3% H2O2 in methanol for 30 minutes, followed by incubation with Protein Block (Dako Pathology Solutions, Agilent, Santa Clara, CA) and avidin/biotin blocking kit (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA). The sections were incubated with anti-CD31 mouse monoclonal antibody (Dako Pathology Solutions) at 4°C overnight, then incubated with biotin-conjugated rabbit anti-mouse Ig (Dako Pathology Solutions), for 30 minutes at room temperature followed by the addition of peroxidase conjugated streptavidin (Nichirei, Tokyo, Japan) for 5 minutes. Peroxidase activity was visualized by diaminobenzidine. The sections were counterstained with Mayer's Hematoxylin Solution (Muto Pure Chemicals, Tokyo, Japan), dehydrated, and then mounted with Malinol (Muto Pure Chemicals).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Catalase and Glutathione Peroxidase in Tumor Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sections of paraffin-embedded tumor tissues of the six treatment groups at days 1, 7, and 55 after treatment were deparaffinized and stained using the peroxidase-anti-peroxidase (PAP) IHC method (Dako REAL peroxidase blocking solution S2023, Glostrup, Denmark) with an anticatalase antibody (1:50, Abcam, ab16731) and antiglutathione peroxidase antibody (1:100, Abcam, ab22604). Nuclei were counterstained using the hematoxylin stain (Mayer’s hematoxylin solution, Muto Pure Chemicals Co., Tokyo, Japan).

Maxillae from the mice were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd., Osaka, Japan) overnight at 4°C and decalcified in decalcify solution B (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd.) for 1 week. After decalcification, periodontal tissues were embedded in paraffin and sectioned at 5 μm in a mesio-distal orientation using a LEICA RA2245 microtome (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany). Hematoxylin—eosin staining was performed using Mayer’s hematoxylin solution (Muto Pure Chemicals Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) and 1% Eosin Y solution (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd.).

Histological Analysis of Male Mouse Reproductive Organs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Testes, epididymides, and seminal vesicles from male mice (19–34 weeks old) were fixed in Bouin’s fluid (Polysciences, Warrington, PA, USA) at 4°C overnight. The fixed tissues were
dehydrated by increasing the ethanol concentration and then embedded in paraffin. The embedded tissues were sliced at 5- or 6-µm thickness using a Microm HM355 (Thermo
Fisher Scientific). For epididymides and seminal vesicles, sliced sections were stained with Mayer’s hematoxylin solution (Muto Pure Chemicals, Tokyo, Japan) for 3 min and counterstained
with New eosin solution Type M (Muto Pure Chemicals) for 3 min. For testes, the sliced sections were stained with 1% periodic acid solution (PAS, Wako) for 10 min, followed by treatment with
Schiff’s reagent (Wako) for 20 min, and then Mayer’s hematoxylin solution for 5 min. After dehydration with ethanol, the slides were mounted using Multi Mount 480 (Matsunami Glass, Osaka,
Japan). Spermatozoa from the cauda epididymis were dispersed in PBS, and the sperm morphology was observed using a differential interference contrast microscopy.

Histochemical Liver Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Haematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed with Mayer's Hematoxylin solution (Muto Pure Chemicals Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) and Eosin Y solution (1% Eosin Y in 70% ethanol). For the analysis of lipid accumulation, the liver area containing lipid droplets was quantified morphometrically, in random 20× magnification fields of HE-stained sections, using ImageJ software.21 For the analysis of inflammation score, inflammatory cell infiltration levels were scored using the procedure described by Brunt et al. 22 The number of lobular inflamed foci was counted and scored (score 1 for <2 foci, score 2 for 2-4 foci, score 3 for >4 foci) using random 20× magnification fields of HE-stained sections.
For picrosirius red staining, the sections were incubated with 0.1% Sirius red (Direct Red 80; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in Van Gieson Solution A (Muto Pure Chemicals Co., Ltd.) for 1 hour and rinsed with 0.01 N HCl. 23 The areas of the stained region were quantified in random 10× magnification fields of picrosirius red-stained sections using ImageJ software.

Racemic-ACA was supplied by Dr. H. Azuma, Graduate School of Engineering of Osaka City University. It was prepared according to the previously reported method [19] as following. Starting from 4-, 3-, and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, racemic-ACA was synthesized via a Grignard coupling reaction with vinylmagnesium bromide and further acetylation of the produced hydroxyl intermediate.
Mayer's hematoxylin solution and 1% eosin Y solution were purchased from Muto Pure Chemicals Co., LTD. (Tokyo, Japan). 2-Isopropylmalic acid was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich, Tokyo, Japan. Other chemicals used in this study were special-grade commercial products purchased from WAKO Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. (Osaka, Japan).

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.
