Boyden Chamber Assay for Cell Migration and Invasion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Boyden chamber consists of two compartments separated by a polycarbonate membrane containing uniformly sized pores of 8.0 µm. The Boyden chamber assay is a widely accepted and useful technology to study chemotaxis of leukocytes or other migratory cells. For the Boyden chamber migration assay, 200 µl serum-free medium containing 2×105 cells was placed in the upper compartment and complete medium with 20% FBS was added to the lower compartment. After conventional incubation for 12 h, the cell source chamber was removed, and the excess cells on the upper side of the filter (those that did not migrate across the filter) were removed by gently wiping. The entire filter was then submerged in a fixation solution (4% paraformaldehyde) for 30 min and stained using a Hematoxylin–Eosin staining kit (Solarbio). Using a microscope set at 200× magnification, the number of stained cells in 5 fields on the lower side of the filter were enumerated, and the average count was calculated. For the Boyden chamber invasion assay, the microporous filter was coated with Matrigel (BD BioCoat) to form a bioactive three-dimensional matrix, and the physical characteristics and function of the cell basement membrane were simulated. The procedure was the same as that of the migration assay, except for the incubation time, which was 24 h.

Mice were anesthetized with 5% isoflurane, and hearts were excised 3-4 weeks after TAC surgery. The death of mice was confirmed by lack of breathing and lack of a heartbeat. Before fixing with 4% paraformaldehyde, the heart was perfused with 10 mL cold PBS. Then, the heart was embedded in OCT compound; 7-μm-thick sections were used for staining. Hematoxylin and eosin staining were performed using a Hematoxylin-eosin Staining Kit (Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Cat. #: G1121) to observe the global changes in heart size. After incubation with hematoxylin solution, sections were washed and differentiated, followed by incubation in eosin solution, dehydrated in a series of ethanol solutions (75%-100%), then cleared in xylene and mounted in neutral gum. Masson's trichrome was used to assess collagen density using a Masson's Trichrome Staining Kit (Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd. Cat. #: G1346) according to the manufacturer's instructions. To evaluate the cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area, FITC labeled Wheat Germ Agglutinin and Alexa Fluor 647 labeled WGA (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat. #: W834 and W32466) were used according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Histological Analysis of Liver Necrosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was used to assess the necrosis area of the liver. Mouse liver tissues were fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in paraffin and sectioned to 5 μm slides. The slides were deparaffinized and stained by a Hematoxylin-Eosin Staining Kit (Solarbio) according to the manufacturer's protocol. For IHC staining, liver sections were subjected to deparaffinization and antigen retrieval at first, then the non-specific antibody binding was blocked by using 10% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Biosharp) at room temperature for 1 h. After incubating with primary antibodies of FGF10 (ABN44, Millipore, 1:1000 dilution), Ki-67 (12202, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:400 dilution), CD68 (sc-20060, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, 1:50 dilution), or MPO (ab9535, Abcam, 1:50 dilution) at 4 °C overnight, appropriate secondary antibodies conjugated with HRP were added and incubated at room temperature. A Metal Enhanced DAB Substrate Kit (Solarbio) was used to visualize the sections followed by hematoxylin counterstaining. All images were captured by using a Nikon ECLIPSE Ni microscope.

Then, 100 μl GC, H, GCH and Pm-GCH (H, 1 mg/ml) were injected daily through the tail vein of SRNS mice for 3 consecutive days. Urine was collected for 24-h urinary protein quantitation. The concentration of urine protein was detected with a BCA Protein Assay Kit (P0012S, Beyotime, China). After 12 days, all SRNS mice were euthanized, and fresh whole blood was taken for routine blood and kidney function. Hematological indices (RBCs, Hb, WBCs, PLTs) were determined by an automatic blood cell analyzer (Mindray, China). The liver function index (ALT, AST) and renal function index (CREA, BUN) were detected by a Leadman Diagnostic Kit (Leadmanbio, China). Kidney, lung, liver, spleen, heart and femur samples were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and embedded in paraffin. Ultrathin sections were used for HE and Masson staining with a hematoxylin–eosin staining Kit (G1120, Solarbio, China) and Masson’s trichrome stain kit (G1340, Solarbio, China).

The left lung tissue of mice was fixed with 4% PFA for 2 days, embedded in paraffin and sectioned. After deparaffinization and gradient alcohol hydration, paraffin tissue sections (5 μM) were stained with the Hematoxylin-Eosin Staining Kit or Masson Trichrome Stain Kit (Solarbio Life Science, Beijing, China). For immunohistochemistry, a 3%-hydrogen-peroxide solution was added dropwise to tissue sections to quench endogenous peroxidase activity. The sections were then immersed in 0.01 M citrate (Solarbio Life Science, Beijing, China) buffer, and antigen retrieval was performed by the microwave method. Normal goat serum (10%) was added, and the sections were incubated for 1 h at room temperature to block nonspecific binding. The blocking solution was removed, a primary antibody was added dropwise, and the sections were incubated overnight at 4 °C. A secondary antibody working solution was added dropwise and incubated at room temperature for 1 h. A freshly prepared DAB working solution (Solarbio Life Science, Beijing, China) was dropped onto slides, and the degree of staining was monitored under a microscope. Finally, the sections were counterstained with hematoxylin for 2 min. The stained tissue sections were observed under a microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany).

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.
