Lung Immunofluorescent Staining Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lung lobes were perfused with 10% neutral-buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. For immunofluorescent staining, formalin-fixed lung sections were cut, immersed in xylene to remove paraffin, and then sequentially hydrated in absolute ethanol, 95% ethanol, 70% ethanol and water. Antigens were unmasked with a DakoCytomation Target Retrieval Solution (Dako, Carpinteria, CA) and non-specific binding was blocked with 5% (v/v) normal donkey serum and Fc block (BD Pharmingen). Endogenous biotin (Sigma-Aldrich) was neutralized by adding avidin followed by incubation with biotin. Sections were probed with anti-CD45R/B220 to detect B cells (Clone RA3-6B2, BD Pharmingen), anti-CXCL13 (AF470, R&D systems) and anti-CD3 to detect T cells (Clone M-20, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA). B-cell follicles were outlined with the automated tool of the Zeiss Axioplan 2 microscope (Carl Zeiss, Thornwood, NY) and average size in squared microns was calculated as described before12 (link).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were anesthetized with a lethal dose of sodium pentobarbital and trans-cardially perfused with PBS. For frozen sections, mice were subsequently perfused and brains were isolated in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) followed by 20% sucrose and then flash frozen in liquid nitrogen. 10 μm horizontal or sagittal sections were cut and mounted on Superfrost Plus (Fisher Scientific) glass slides. For paraffin sections, fresh brains were transferred into 10% phosphate-buffered formalin followed by 70% EtOH and paraffin embedding. 5 μm sections were mounted onto glass slides. Sections were de-paraffinized and antigen retrieval was performed in sodium citrate buffer. Sections were incubated with 3% hydrogen peroxide and blocked in 5% serum for 1 hr at room temperature (RT). Slides were incubated with primary antibody (anti-CD3ε [BD Biosciences], anti-CD45R/B220 [BD Biosciences], or anti-VSV(G) [a gift from Dr. E. Brown, University of Ottawa]) for 2 hr, followed by a biotinylated secondary antibody (BD Biosciences) for 30 min at RT. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase (ABC Kit, Vector Laboratories) was applied as per the manufacturer’s protocol. 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine (DAB; Sigma) was added for 2 min before immersing in ddH2O and counterstaining with hematoxylin, followed by slide mounting in xylene medium. Sections were scanned using a UMAX Astra 1220S scanner.

Control, LPS, or IL-33 DC were used as stimulators in 5 d MLR of CellTrace Violet (CTV; Life Technologies; Grand Island, NY)-labeled CD4+ T cells at a 1:10 DC:T cell ratio. Recombinant human (h) rhIL-2 (50 U/ml; Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ), IL-33 (10 ng/ml), or anti-IL-2 (10 μg/ml; JES6-1A12; BioLegend) were added to the MLR as indicated in the figures and figure legends.

Animals were housed in the St Jude Animal Resources Center with access to sterilized food and water ad libitum, and all experiments were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. B6.129S4fltm1Hwu/J (Ptenfl/fl) mice were kindly provided by Dr. Suzanne Baker. ETV7Tg+/WT on the 129/CL57/B6 (129SvEv;C57Bl/6 mixed genetic background) were generated by backcrossing ETV7Tg+/WT FVB mice onto wild-type 129/CL57/B6 mice for more than 10 generations prior to crossing them with Ptenfl/fl;Mx1-Cre. 4–6-Week-old Ptenfl/fl;Mx1-Cre and Ptenfl/fl;Mx1-Cre;ETV7Tg+/WT mice were injected intraperitoneally with seven doses of polyinosine–polycytidine (pIpC) (25 μg/g) every other day for 14 days to induce Cre expression as described previously (Yilmaz et al. 2006 (link)). Five days after pIpC injection, total BM was harvested and analyzed by colony-forming cell assays. The pIpC treated mice were observed daily and moribund mice were euthanized by CO2 inhalation. For pathologic diagnosis, the spleen, thymus, and sternum of sick mice were fixed in 10% neutral-buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. All sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and immunostained with anti-CD3 (Santa Cruz), anti-CD45R/B220 (BD Biosciences), and anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO; Dako) antibodies.

For immunofluorescence, secondary antibodies conjugated with Alexa 488 and Alexa 546 (Invitrogen, Life Technologies, Monza, Italy) were used. Nuclei were stained with DRAQ5 (Alexis, Life Technologies, Monza, Italy), YO PRO-3, or TO PRO-3 (Molecular Probes, Monza, Italy). Image acquisition was performed using Zeiss LSM 510 Meta confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss SpA, Milan Italy).
The slides were examined in a double-blind fashion, and digital images of representative areas were taken.

Serial sections (5 μm thick) of the axillary lymph node were obtained and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. In addition, in the axillary lymph node, macrophages, B and T lymphocytes were detected using an anti-Iba-1 (019-19741, WAKO, United States; RRID AB_839504), an anti-CD45R/B220 (BD Pharmingen, United States; RRID AB_396673) and an anti-CD3 epsilon (Sc-1127, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, United States; RRID AB_631128), respectively. Cryosections (7 μm thick) from OCT embedded organs were stained with ORO to detect neutral lipid accumulation. Lipid deposition was measured as the percent of ORO positive area over the total area.30 (link)The Aperio ScanScope GL Slide Scanner (Aperio Technologies, CA) was used to acquire digital images that were subsequently processed with the ImageScope software. Two operators blinded to mouse genotypes quantified all histological parameters.
Skin semithin sections, 2 µm thick, were stained with toluidine blue and observed with a Nikon Eclipse E600 microscope equipped with a Nikon digital camera DXM1200 (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan). Ultrathin sections were obtained with an Ultracut ultramicrotome (Reichert Ultracut R-Ultramicrotome, Leika, Wien, Austria) and stained with uranyl acetate/lead citrate before observation by a Jeol CX100 transmission electron microscope (Jeol, Tokyo, Japan).

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.
