Deconvolution Microscopy Imaging Protocol

All images were acquired on a Deltavision Core deconvolution microscope (Applied Precision) using a 60× 1.42NA PlanApo N (Olympus) or 100× UPLanSApo 1.4NA (Olympus) objective and a sCMOS camera. Twenty Z-sections with 0.2 μm spacing were acquired for each image with identical exposure conditions within each experiment. For presentation in figures, representative images were deconvolved (where indicated), followed by generation of maximum intensity projections of 5–10 Z-sections, which were scaled identically for all experimental conditions.

Multimodal Imaging of Tight Junction Proteins

We used stimulated emission depletion (STED) imaging and expansion microscopy. For STED, 640- and 561-nm diode excitation lasers, a 775-nm STED laser, all pulsed at 40 MHz, and a 100x (Olympus UPlanSApo, 1.4NA) were utilized. A spatial light modulator (Hamamatsu) was used to produce either a doughnut-shaped (2D-STED) or a top-hat (3D-STED) phase mask, shaping different depletion beams without changing the optical setup. To reduce photobleaching at an optimal signal to noise ratios we employed DyMIN® adaptive illumination.
For expansion microscopy, after immunofluorescence staining, gelation, digestion and expansion were performed as described before77 (link). Notably, we extended incubation time in monomer solution to 45 min, gelation time to 2.5 h and digestion was performed overnight. Images were taken with an HC PL APO CS2 40x/1.10 water objective. Expansion microscopy was used for qualitative representation of occludin and ZO-1 morphology.

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.
