RPE/choroidal whole mounts were prepared as described previously [43 (link)]. Briefly, tissues were permeabilised with 0.3% triton X-100 for 1h. The samples were then blocked with 6% BSA and incubated with biotinylated Griffonia Simplicifolia Lectin I-Isolectin B4 (1:100, Vector Laboratories Ltd., Peterborough, UK) and rabbit anti-mouse collagen IV (1:100, ABD Serotec Ltd, Oxford, UK), followed by FITC-conjugated Streptavidin (1:200, Dako, Denmark) and goat anti-rabbit AlexFluor 594 (1:200, Invitrogen, Paisley, UK) for 2h. Samples were observed by confocal microscopy (Eclipse TE200-U, Nikon UK Ltd., Surry, UK).

Whole mouse eyes were collected and fixed in 2% PFA/PBS for 2 h before transferring to PBS and stored in 4 °C for further processing [20 (link)]. For retinal flatmount staining, retinal tissues were permeabilised and blocked in 1% BSA/PBS for 2 h and then incubated in primary antibodies (Biotinylated Griffonia Simplicifolia Lectin I Isolectin B4: 1:50, Vector laboratory, Peterborough, UK; rabbit anti-mouse Collagen IV: 1:50, AbD Serotec®, Kidlington, UK) overnight. After thorough washes, samples were incubated with secondary antibodies (Streptavidin FITC or goat anti-rabbit Alex Fluor 569, all from Invitrogen, UK, 1:200) at room temperature for 2 h. Tissues were flatmounted on glass slides with mounting medium and evaluated under confocal microscope (EZ-C1 confocal system, Nikon UK Limited, Surrey, UK).

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.
