Immunohistochemical staining was performed as described [26 (link)]. Slides from nude mice were incubated overnight with primary antibodies against ki67 (#ab15580, Abcam), p21 (#ab15580, Abcam) at 4 °C. The complex was observed by DAB complex, and the nuclei were counterstained with haematoxylin. The immunoreactivity in each section was assessed by at least two experienced pathologists and scored by semi-quantitative H-score approach [27 (link)].

Approval for the animal experiments was obtained from the Animal Care and Use Committee of The Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture and all animal procedures followed international guidelines. sh‐NC‐ or sh‐circ_0026134‐transduced H520 cells (5 × 106 cells) were subcutaneously injected into male BALB/c mice aged 6 weeks (Vital River Laboratory; n = 6 per group). The developing tumors were periodically measured with a digital caliper and tumor volume was determined as follows: volume = length × width2 × 0.5. On day 40 after cell injection, the mice were sacrificed and the xenograft tumors were excised for weight measurement and gene expression analysis by qRT‐PCR and western blot. Immunohistochemistry analysis for Ki‐67 level measurement in the xenograft tumors was done as described.20 Briefly, the tissue paraffin sections were incubated with Ki‐67 antibody (1:100; ab15580, Abcam) and biotinylated anti‐rabbit secondary antibody (1:1000; ab15580, Abcam), followed by the incubation with the DAB detection kit as described by the manufacturers (Abcam).

Cells were fixed using 4% paraformaldehyde and subsequently permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. After blocking with 1% BSA, cells were incubated overnight at 4 °C with a primary antibody (1:500 dilution) for cell proliferation Ki67 (ab15580, Abcam, Cambridge, MA). Cells were then incubated with secondary antibodies (1:1000 dilution, A-11034, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and DAPI (Vector Laboratories, Burlington, ON, Canada) for nuclei at room temperature for 2 h. The image was captured using a Nikon TE-2000 digital microscope equipped with a Hamamatsu C4742-80-12AG camera. The number of antibody-labeled cells was quantified from five separate images by three blinded investigators.
Similarly, sections of terminal ileum were immunostained for Ki67 (ab15580, Abcam, Cambridge, MA) using the same protocol as above. For subsequent reactions, a streptavidin–biotin complex peroxidase kit (LASB + Kit, Dako, Denmark) was used and slides analyzed the same way as mentioned above.

Tumor sections (4 μm) were prepared on slide glasses, and sectioned slides were deparaffinized in xylene and gradually hydrated using an alcohol gradient from 100 to 70%. After washing with PBS, slides were warmed in a microwave with citrate buffer following incubation in 3% H2O2. Sections were then incubated with 5% bovine serum albumin in PBS to block nonspecific binding. Ki67 (1:100, ab15580; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3-II) (1:200, L7543; Sigma-Aldrich) antibodies were added to the slides and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Sections were then incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature. After washing, the sections were incubated with DAB substrate. Finally, hematoxylin staining was performed after mounting the slides using Permount mounting medium (Sigma-Aldrich). Cell proliferation was detected also by immunofluorescence staining using an antibody against Ki67 (1:100, ab15580; Abcam) for 2 h. Next, tissue sections were incubated with Alexa Fluor-labeled secondary antibodies (1:500) for 20 min at 37 °C and washed with PBS. The coverslips were mounted in Prolong Gold anti-fade reagent with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Invitrogen) for 10 min at room temperature and examined by fluorescence microscopy (Olympus CKX41 and U-RFLT 50).

The RNAScope® Multiplex fluorescence V2 system (Advanced Cell Diagnostics, Inc., Newark, CA, USA) was applied to in situ hybridization according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 10 μm paraffin skin sections from the AEW and Water groups were deparaffinized, rehydrated, washed in diethylpyrocarbonate (DEPC) distilled water, and stained with the following probes: mouse-Col17a1 (552141-C1; Advanced Cell Diagnostics) and mouse-Cux1 (442931-C2; Advanced Cell Diagnostics). After completing RNAScope, the skin sections were immediately subjected to Ki67 (ab15580, 1:250; Abcam, Waltham, MA, USA) immunofluorescence staining. The fluorescence intensities of Col17a1 and Cux1 in proliferating basal cells (stained positive for anti-Ki67 antibody in the epidermis) were quantified in both the AEW and Water groups. For skin sections from patients with psoriasis, we performed double immunofluorescence staining with Ki67 (ab15580, 1:250; Abcam) and Cux1 (sc-514008, 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Dallas, TX, USA).

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.
