Mice were perfused with ice cold phosphate buffered saline (PBS) followed by 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) in PBS. Brains were incubated in PFA overnight at 4°C, rinsed twice with PBS and then dehydrated for 48 hr in 30% sucrose in PBS at 4°C. The brains were frozen in O.C.T. compound (VWR) and sliced at the cryostat (Leica, Germany). Free-floating sections were rinsed in PBS and then incubated in blocking solution (1% bovine serum albumin and 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS) containing primary antibodies for 24 hr at 4°C. Sections were washed with PBS three times and incubated for 24 hr at 4°C in blocking solution with secondary antibodies. Immuno-labeled sections were washed three times with PBS and mounted on glass slides. Antibodies used in this study were chicken anti-GFP (Thermo Scientific, A10262, 1:1000), rabbit anti-RFP (Rockland, 600-401-379, 1:2000), donkey anti-chicken alexa 488 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 703-545-155, 1:1000), donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 711-165-152, 1:1000) and rabbit anti-cleaved caspase-3 (NEB, #9661, 1:500).

Mice were perfused with 0.1 M PBS followed by 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA). Brains were immersed in PBS-azide overnight. Brains were dissected with a vibratome (Leica) at 100 mm into PBS-azide for mitochondria. Brain sections were blocked in 3% normal donkey serum with 0.3% Triton-X for 30 min at room temperature. Sections were then incubated overnight at 4 °C in primary antibody (1:1500 chicken anti-GFP; Aves Labs, Cat#GFP-1020) diluted in 3% NDS and 0.3% tween 20 solution. On the second day, tissue sections were rinsed in PBS three times for 30 min per rinse followed by rinsing with PBS every hour at room temperature for 8 h, then incubated overnight at 4 °C in secondary antibody, 1:500 donkey anti-chicken-Alexa488 (Jackson ImmunoResearch cat# 703–545-155) diluted in PBS. After secondary incubation, sections were rinsed in PBS every hour for 8 h. Slices were mounted, dried overnight in the dark, and cover slipped with mounting media (Aqua-Polymount; Polysciences, Inc.). DsRed was not amplified via immunostaining, as endogenous virus expression was sufficient for imaging.

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.
