According to an existing protocol,20 immunohistochemistry was performed. The paraffin‐embedded sections were incubated with the primary antibodies (all from Abcam Inc., Cambridge, MA, USA) against interleukin (IL)‐1β (dilution ratio of 1: 200, ab9722) and IL‐18 (dilution ratio of 1: 2000, ab223293), and then incubated with the secondary antibody immunoglobulin G (IgG) (dilution ratio of 1: 2000, ab205718). Immunohistochemistry findings were analysed using the Image Pro Plus 6.0 software (Media Cybernetics, Silver Spring, USA). Five visual fields were randomly selected from each section to detect the optical density (OD) of the positive staining area. A high OD value was indicative of a high antigen expression in the positive areas.

The heart was fixed with 10% neutral formalin, embedded in paraffin, and cut into 4 μm slices. Immunohistochemistry was performed according to the procedure of the DAB detection kit (GK600505; GenenTech, Shanghai, China). In conclusion, sections were incubated with rabbit gasdermin D Antibody (1 : 200, 93709, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), rabbit NLRP3 antibody (1 : 200, ET1610-93, HUABIO, China), rabbit caspase-1 antibody (1 : 200, ET1608-69, HUABIO, China), rabbit anti-IL-1beta antibody (1 : 200, ab9722, Abcam, UK), and rabbit anti-IL-18 antibody (1 : 1000, ab223293, Abcam, UK) and detected by a DAB colorimetric detection kit. Then, the nuclei were stained with hematoxylin. Finally, the images were obtained using a digital slide scanner (Pannoramic SCAN, 3DHISTECH, Budapest, Hungary) and analyzed using ImageJ as described previously [29 (link)]. The protein contents were quantified by the average grey value (immunostaining intensity) and the percentage of positive area (staining area) of the positive cells [29 (link)].

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Inflammatory Markers in Rat Prostate

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rat prostate slices were de-waxed in xylene prior to ethanol gradient dehydration. Sections were received 10mM citrate buffer (pH, 6.0) for antigen retrieval and immersed in 3% hydrogen peroxide to block the endogenous peroxidase before immunohistochemistry (IHC). Sections were incubated with the primary antibodies against Ki-67 (2 µg/mL, ab15580, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), IL-6 (1:400, ab6672, Abcam), IL-18 (1:2,000, ab223293, Abcam), and TNF-α (1:200, ab270264, Abcam) overnight at 4°C. Sections were washed with phosphatebuffered saline (PBS) thrice before and after incubation with the secondary antibody. After that, 1–3 minutes of diaminobenzidine color development was terminated. The nucleus of cells was stained by hematoxylin for 3 minutes, and sections were dehydrated, permeabilized, and sealed. Images were acquired using a light microscope (Nikon Eclipse E100, Tokyo, 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.
