Cells were blocked in PBS/2%FBS, on ice for 30 minutes. 2x10 5 cells/well were transferred to a 96-well V-bottomed plate and pelleted at 300 x g, 4 minutes, 4°C. The supernatant was removed by inverting the plate. The pellet was resuspended with 25 l of diluted, conjugated antibody and incubated in the dark, on ice for 30 minutes. The cells were then pelleted at 300 x g, 4 minutes, 4°C and washed twice with 75 l PBS. The final pellet was resuspended in 100 l PBS. 100l SYTOX Blue Nucleic Acid Stain (5M, ThermoFisher #S11348) was added immediately prior to flow cytometer analysis to allow for live/dead cell identification.
Antibodies used were CD14 (Biorad, #MCA1218F, 1:50) with isotype control (Sigma, #SAB4700700), CD16 (Biorad, #MCA1971PE, 1:200) with isotype control (Biorad, #MCA928PE), CD163 (Biorad, #MCA2311F, 1:100) with isotype control (Sigma, #F6397), CD169 (Biorad, #MCA2316F, 1:100) with isotype control (Sigma, #F6397) and CD172a (Southern Biotech, #4525-09, 1:400) with isotype control (Biorad, #MCA928PE).

Organs were fixed in 1% formaldehyde / 10 mM sodium periodate / 75 mM L-lysine (18h, 4°C), equilibrated in 30% sucrose (24h, 4°C), then frozen in OCT. Sections (6μm) were air-dried (1h, 23°C), washed 3x in PBS, blocked with 0.3% Triton X-100 / 5% normal donkey serum (1h, 23°C), then incubated (18h, 4°C) with combinations of antibodies to eGFP (rabbit, chicken or goat pAb), CD68 (rat mAb, FA-11) (AbCam), B220 (rat mAb RA3-6B2), F4/80 (rat mAb CI:A3–1) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), mCherry (rabbit pAb, Badrilla), CD206 (rat mAb MR5D3), CD169 (rat mAb 3D6.112) (Serotec), podoplanin (goat pAb, R&D Systems), and MuHV-4 (polyclonal rabbit sera raised by 2 subcutaneous virus inoculations). Sections were washed 3× in PBS, incubated (1h, 23°C) with combinations of Alexa568-donkey anti-rat IgG pAb, Alexa488 or Alexa647-donkey anti rabbit IgG pAb, Alexa647-donkey anti-mouse IgM pAb, Alexa488-donkey anti-chicken IgG pAb (Abcam), and Alexa488-donkey anti-goat pAb (Life Technologies), then washed 3× in PBS, stained with DAPI and mounted in Prolong Gold (Life Technologies). TdTomato fluoresence was visualized directly. Images were captured with a Zeiss LCM510 confocal microscope or a Nikon epifluorescence microscope and analyzed with Zen imaging software or ImageJ.

For immunofluorescence microscopy, tissues were frozen in 2-methylbutane surrounded by dry ice. Frozen blocks were cut into 7μm sections, fixed in acetone, blocked in a 5% bovine serum albumin PBS solution for 1 h, and stained with DAPI (Invitrogen) and antibodies specific for Thy1.1 (OX-7, eBioscience), CD45.1 (A20, eBioscience), CD169 (AbD Serotec), CD69 (goat polyclonal, R&D), Collagen IV (rabbit polyclonal, Acris). Jackson Immunoresearch secondary antibodies conjugated to various fluorochromes were used to stain unconjugated antibodies. Tiled images were acquired with an automated Leica DM5500B microscope and analysis was performed with ImageJ and Adobe Photoshop. Cell isolations and flow cytometry were performed as previously described (17 (link)). Quantification of microscopy images were performed as previously described (10 (link)).

Immunostaining of Midbrain Sections

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Midbrain sections (50 µm) were immunostained for anti-TH (EMD Millipore), which was followed by incubation with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody, and visualized by diaminobenzidine (DAB) staining. Sections were counterstained with thionin solution (Nissl stain).
Midbrain sections (50 µm) were blocked and permeabilized in PBS buffer containing 0.3% horse serum and 0.25% Triton X-100 for 1 h and then immunostained for 48 h with a combination of TH (EMD Millipore), CD11b (Abcam or eBioscience)/Iba1 (Wako Pure Chemical Industries), and P2Y12 (gift from D. Julius, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA)/CD169 (AbD Serotec) or combination of TH and CD11b (eBioscience). Adequate Alexa Fluor–conjugated secondary antibodies were used for detection by immunofluorescence microscopy. DNs were assessed as TH+. Resident microglia were identified as CD11b+P2Y12+ or Iba1+CD169 and infiltrating monocytes as CD11b+P2Y12 or Iba1+CD169+. In MPTP-injected tdTomatoR26f/f;Cx3cr1creER mice, infiltrating monocytes were assessed as CD11b+tdTomato cells.

The organs were fixed in 1% formaldehyde–10 mM sodium periodate–75 mM l-lysine (18 h, 4°C), equilibrated in 30% sucrose (18 h, 4°C), and then frozen. Sections were blocked with 0.1% Triton X-100–5% normal goat serum and then incubated (18 h, 4°C) with antibodies to B220 (rat MAb RA3-6B2), surfactant protein C (SPC) (goat polyclonal antibody [pAb]), CK19 (goat MAb N-13; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), CD68 (rat MAb FA-11), ER-TR7 (rat MAb), CD31 (rat MAb MEC 7.46), β-galactosidase (chicken pAb), LYVE-1 (rabbit pAb; Abcam), podoplanin (PDP) (goat pAb, R&D Systems), CD11c (hamster MAb HL-3; BD Pharmingen), CD206 (rat MAb MR5D3) and CD169 (rat MAb 3D6.112) (Serotec), peripheral node addressin (PNAd) (rat MAb MECA-79; BioLegend), or aquaporin V (rabbit pAb; Alamone Labs). After incubation with primary antibodies, the sections were washed three times in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), incubated (1 h, 23°C) with combinations of Alexa Fluor 488-, Alexa Fluor 568-, or Alexa Fluor 647-conjugated goat pAb (Abcam), then washed three times in PBS, stained with 4′,6′-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), and mounted in ProLong gold (Life Technologies). TdTomato (Tom) and GFP expression were visualized directly. Images were acquired with a Zeiss LSM510 microscope and analyzed with Zen software.

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.
