Yolk sacs were stained as described in Newton et al. [33 (link)]. Fixed tissues were stained with rat anti-PECAM-1 (BD, 550274) and rabbit anti-cleaved caspase-3 (CST, 9661). The following secondary antibodies were used: donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 711-165-152) and donkey anti-rat Cy5 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 712-175-153). Processed yolk sacs were mounted using ProLong Gold Antifade Mountant with DAPI (Invitrogen, P36392) and images were acquired using a LEICA SPE upright confocal microscope with 20x objective. On average about 50 optical sections were collected, representing about 50 μm deep volume, with 1.19 μm step size. The images shown are maximum intensity projections.
BMDMs were seeded at d5 on 4 chamber tissue culture treated glass slides (Falcon, 354104) and treated the following day. The cells were fixed in 4% PFA for 30 min at room temperature. Permeabilized in 0.25% Triton X-100 (w/v) and blocked in 5% BSA (w/v) and 0.05% Triton X-100 (w/v). Staining was performed with p65 (CST, 8242) for 2 h at room temperature followed by labeling with donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 711-165-152) and 1:2000 Hoechst (H3569). The cells were mounted with ProLong Glass Antifade Mountant (P36980). Images were acquired using a LEICA SP8 inverted microscope with a 40x objective.

Immunostaining was performed as previously described (Lewellis et al., 2013 (link)). Briefly, embryos were fixed in 4% PFA for two hours at room temperature. Following fixation, they were permeabilized in methanol at −20°C, rehydrated, permeabilized with 10 μg/ml proteinase K in PBST for 8 minutes at room temperature, and post-fixed in 4% PFA for 20 minutes at room temperature. Embryos were blocked in 2% BSA in PBST for 1 hour and incubated in primary antibody at 4 degree C overnight. Following PBST washes, they were incubated in secondary antibody overnight at 4 degree C. Rabbit anti-GFP (1:1000, Invitrogen), affinity-purified goat anti-GFP (1:100, (Venkiteswaran et al., 2013 (link))), affinity-purified sheep anti-mCherry (1:1000, custom-made antibody generated against bacterially-produced, recombinant full-length mCherry protein by Covance), zns-2 (1:50, Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank) and mouse anti-ZO-1 (1:500, ThermoFisher) were detected with goat anti-rabbit-Alexa488 (1:1000, Invitrogen), donkey anti-rabbit- Cy3 (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch), donkey anti-goat-Alexa488 (1:1000, Invitrogen), donkey anti-goat-Cy3 (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch), donkey anti-sheep-Alexa647 (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch), donkey anti-mouse-Cy3 (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch) and donkey anti-mouse Alexa647 (1:1000, Jackson ImmunoResearch) secondary antibodies.

Gastrocnemius muscle was dissected from perfused mice and prepared as described in the immunofluorescence section. Floating 40 μm thick longitudinal sections of gastrocnemius were incubated in a blocking solution containing PBS1x, 0.5% Tween-20, 1.5% BSA for 4 hours at room temperature and then in PBS1x, 0.3% Triton X-100 overnight at room temperature with the polyclonal rabbit anti-synaptophysin antibody at 1:50 (Invitrogen). The sections were washed with PBS1x and then incubated first with donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (Jackson ImmunoResearch) and α-bungarotoxin-Alexa488 (Invitrogen) at 1:500 for 1 hour at room temperature and then with Fluoromyelin red (Invitrogen) at 1:300 for 30 min. The sections were further washed with PBS1x and mounted. Analysis was performed on a Nikon Eclipse laser scanning confocal microscope. A total of approximately 1,000 neuromuscular junctions were counted from at least 10 sections of gastrocnemius. Individual NMJs were considered as innervated when synaptophysin staining covered at least 50% of the area of α-bungarotoxin staining.

Eyes were enucleated, and retinae were dissected and fixed in 4% formaldehyde for 30 min at room temperature. Fixed retinae were cryoprotected in sucrose in PBS for a few hours and embedded in optical cutting temperature compound on dry ice. Sections (20 μm thick) were cut on a cryostat (Leica). Retinal sections or whole retinal cups were blocked in 5% BSA in PBST (PBS with 0.1% Triton X-100), stained with primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight, and washed three times with PBST. Primary antibodies used in this study included rabbit anti-red/green opsin (1:300, AB5405; EMD Millipore); goat anti-blue opsin (1:100, sc-14365; Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc.); rabbit anti-GFAP (1:500, Z0344; DAKO); rabbit anti-Iba1 (1:1,000, PA5-21274; ThermoFisher), and rhodamine-conjugated and FITC-conjugated PNA (1:1,000; Vector Laboratories). Sections were stained using secondary antibodies, including donkey anti- rabbit CY3, donkey anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 647, and donkey anti-goat Alexa Fluor 647 (all used at 1:1,000; Jackson ImmunoResearch), and were costained with DAPI in the dark for 2 h at room temperature and mounted in Fluoromount-G (SouthernBiotech). Images were taken using a 40× objective with Z-stacks on a Zeiss LSM780 confocal microscope. Images used for comparison between groups were taken side by side at the same confocal settings.

Pig brains were aligned on AC-PC prior to sectioning to facilitate comparison with MR images, and cut into 100 μm coronal sections using a Leica SM2500 microtome (Leica microsystems, Milton Keynes, UK). In order to assess the toxicity, 6 sections anterior and posterior to the catheter track were assessed against the control infusions of aCSF. Sections were mounted on gelatine-subbed slides and subsequently subjected to standard immunofluorescent protocols in order to in order to identify neuronal disruption, gliosis and increased macrophage activation.
The sections were incubated overnight at 4°C with either mouse anti-NeuN (1:100; Millipore, CA, USA), rabbit anti-GFAP (1:300; Millipore, CA, USA) or CD63 (1:100; Serotec, Oxfrod UK). Detection was determined using Donkey Anti-Mouse (1:150; streptavidin Alexa Fluor 488) or donkey anti-rabbit Cy3 (1:300; Jackson Laboratories, Sacramento, CA, USA) or Donkey Anti-Mouset Alexa Fluor 488 (1:300, Jackson Laboratories, Sacramento, CA, USA). Sections were also treated with DAPI (1:200 of 1mg/mL; Sigma Aldrich, Dorset, UK) prior to mounting in Fluorsave Reagent before visualisation. Images were captured as described earlier.

Mice were anesthetized with choral hydrate and perfused with saline followed by 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The brains were removed, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde overnight, and subjected to dehydration in increasing saccharin solutions (20–30%) at 4ºC. The frozen coronal slices of 20 μm thicknesses were prepared and stored at -20ºC in 20% ethanediol PBS solution containing 20% saccharin.

Then they were incubated in rabbit anti-Parvalbumin (Swant, Bellinzona) or mouse anti–corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF; Abcam) antibody overnight at 4ºC. Slices were rinsed in PBS then incubated in donkey anti-rabbit Cy3, Alex488, DyLight 647, or donkey anti-mouse Cy3 (Jackson Immunoresearch) for 1h and 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) for 10min, then mounted after rinsing.

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.
