All the steps followed during the entire procedure are detailed in Ferran et al. (2015a ,b ). Sense and antisense digoxigenin-UTP-labeled riboprobes for mouse Dlx5, Pax3, Pax6, Shh, Tcf7l2 and Vegfr2 were synthesized according the manufacturer’s suggestions (Roche Diagnostics S.L., Applied Science, Barcelona, Spain) and using specific polymerases (Fermentas, Madrid, Spain). Probe sequence information is provided in Table 1. Hybridizations were carried out overnight at 72°C. RNA-labeled probes were detected by an alkaline phosphatase-coupled anti-digoxigenin antibody (diluted 1:3.500; Roche Diagnostics, Manheim, Germany), and the compound nitroblue tetrazolium/5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (NBT/BCIP; Roche Diagnostics, Manheim, Germany) was used as a chromogenic substrate for the alkaline phosphatase reaction.

miR# was an artificial mutation of mmu-miR-21: mmu-miR-21 (5′-uag cuu auc aga cug augu uga-3′), mutant mmu-miR-21 (miR#) (5′-uag cuu auc aga cug caca aua-3′). Locked nucleic acid (LNA) probes were purchased from Exiqon (Copenhagen, Denmark). Mouse kidneys were fixed in 10% formaldehyde and incubated with 18% sucrose/PBS overnight at 4°C. Kidney sections (15 mm) were incubated with LNA miRNA probes labeled with digoxigenin at 55°C overnight. After wash, kidney sections were incubated with anti-digoxigenin antibody conjugated with alkaline phosphatase at 25°C for 3 h. Nitro-Blue-Tetrazolium/5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate (NBT/BCIP) (Roche) was used for color development with substrates.

To assess the differentiation capacity of ASC towards osteoblasts, ASC (passage 1) were seeded in 12-well culture dishes at 10,000 cells/cm2. The cells were then cultured in monolayer in Osteogenesis Differentiation Medium (Gibco). Control cells were cultured in normal culture medium. Both differentiation and control media were changed twice a week. Differentiation was stopped at 12 days by fixating the cells with 4 % formaldehyde at RT for 10 min. Differentiation was demonstrated by staining alkaline phosphatase (ALP). For this, cells were incubated in 0.2 M TRIS-hydrochloride (pH 10), 0.2 M calcium, 0.1 M magnesium chloride solution for 10 min, whereafter a solution containing 0.2 M TRIS-hydrochloride (pH 10), 0.2 M calcium chloride, 0.1 M magnesium chloride solution and nitroblue tetrazolium/5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate (NBT/BCIP) was added (1:100, Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) for 15 min. This stains ALP blue. Microscopic images were taken using a Zeiss microscope.

The tissues were processed for in situ hybridization with digoxigenin‐UTP‐labeled antisense riboprobes. Sense and antisense digoxigenin‐labeled riboprobes for mouse Calb1, Calb2, Enc1, Nkx2.2, and Six3 were synthesized following the manufacter's recommendations (Roche Diagnostics S.L., Applied Science, Barcelona, Spain), and applying specific polymerases (Fermentas, Madrid, Spain). Probe sequence information is provided in Table 2. In situ hybridization (ISH) was performed basically as described by Ferran, Ayad, et al. (2015). After hybridization, all sections were washed and incubated in a solution containing alkaline phosphatase‐coupled anti‐digoxigenin antibody (diluted 1:3.500; Roche Diagnostics). Nitroblue tetrazolium/5‐bromo‐4‐chloro‐3‐indolyl phosphate (NBT/BCIP; Roche) solution was then used as chromogenic substrate for the final alkaline phosphatase reaction (Boehringer, Mannheim, Germany). No specific signal was obtained with sense probes (data not shown).
Dlx1, Dlx2, Dlx5, Dlx6, Isl1, Pax6, Ecel1 and Sst expression was analyzed from in situ hybridization images downloaded from the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas (https://developingmouse.brain-map.org).

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.
