Standard immunofluorescent methods were applied for IL-33 IR cell types in the brains of Sham + PBS and RNS groups, which was described previously (Gao et al., 2017b (link)). Brain tissue was fixed by cardiac perfusion, and the brain was first perfused with PBS, then perfused with 4% paraformaldehyde, and cut into 5 μm sections using a cryostat. Briefly, (1) the slices were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min; (2) Incubated with 3% H2O2 for 5–10 min at room temperature to eliminate endogenous peroxidase activity; (3) Washed with PBS three times for 5 min each time, and placed the slices in a boiled sodium citrate solution for microwave repair for 20 min; (4) 0.5% Triton punched for about 10min; (5) Washed PBS three times for 5 min each time, 5% BSA was blocked for 2 h; (6) Incubated sections with anti-IL-33 (1:100; R&D, AF3626), anti-ST2 (1:200; Abcam, ab25877), anti-NeuN (1:200; Abcam), anti-Olig-2 (1:500; Millipore) diluted in blocking buffer, then the sections were incubated for 2 h at 4°C with an appropriate fluorescence-conjugated secondary antibody (1:200, Jackson Immuno-Research). Sections were stained for DAPI (1:5000, Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology) to visualize the nucleus. Images were captured with a fluorescence microscope (Zeiss).

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.
