After BI, GTS-21 or saline-treatment (n = 3), IHC to detect microglia changes was performed using anti-Iba1. 20 (link),30 (link) Rats were anesthetized as described, chest opened, a needle was inserted through the heart and ascending aorta perfused via infusion pump with 200ml of 0.01m phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.35) followed by 300ml paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M in PBS. Then, spinal segments were excised, post fixed (4% formaldehyde) and kept in sucrose (10%) for 4h, sucrose(20%) for 8h and then sucrose(30%) overnight. After tissue dehydration, spinal segments were paraffin embedded, sectioned with a cryostat (8μm thick), mounted on Shandon™ Polysine slides (Fisher-Scientific, Waltham, MA) and stored at −20oC. All IHC sections were treated under the same conditions on the same day to minimize the between-group variability. Sections were blocked (1.5% goat serum and 0.04% Saponin in 1% bovine serum albumin) for 1h, incubated overnight at 4oC with primary antibody, rabbit anti Iba1(1:150, Wako-Pure Industries, Richmond, VA) and incubated for 90min with anti-rabbit Alexa 568 (1:300; Invitrogen, Grand Island). Randomly-selected IHC images were scanned using a confocal microscope (Zeiss LSM 800; Carl Zeiss Microscopy, Thornwood, NY). Photoshop program (Volocity 6.3, Perkin Elmer, Inc) was used for quantitation of expression of Iba1.

Ears were fixed in periodate-lysine-paraformaldehyde overnight as reported 49 (link), cryoprotected in 15% sucrose, embedded in OCT medium (Electron Microscopy Sciences) and frozen in dry-ice cooled isopentane. Eighteen-micron cross-sections were cut on a Leica cryostat (Leica Microsystems), blocked with 5% goat or donkey serum, then stained with a combination of DAPI (Perkin Elmer), CD11b-Alexa 647 (clone M1/70, eBioscience), and VGF peptide antibody followed by anti-rabbit Alexa 568 (Invitrogen). Images were acquired on an inverted SP5 confocal microscope (Leica Microsystems) using identical PMT (photomultiplier tube) and laser settings. Lesion depth was scored manually using Imaris software.

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.
