The antiserum obtained (gC2 (1:30,000)) was incubated with 10 mmol of several hypothalamic peptides dissolved in 100 or 200 µl distilled water, or an equal volume of distilled water (control), for 1 h at RT and overnight at 4°C.
The pre-treated serum was then used for kisspeptin single-labeling immunohistochemistry as described above. The following peptides were used: rat- or human-type kisspeptin-10 and GnRH (Peptide Institute, Minoh, Osaka, Japan), NKB,
β-endorphin (ovine), Neuropeptide Y (NPY, ovine), α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA), Dyn (porcine), prolactin-releasing peptide-31 (bovine), prepro-RF-amide-related peptide (RFRP) (rat, 103-125),
pyroglutamylated-RF-amide peptide (rat, 13-26), and SP (human, 2-11) (Phoenix Pharmaceuticals Inc).
The anti-SP monoclonal antibody (1:2,000,000) was incubated with either SP (10 nmol), NKB (10 nmol), or 100 µl distilled water for 1 h at RT and overnight at 4°C, and subjected to SP immunohistochemistry using a similar protocol
as the kisspeptin single-labeling immunohistochemistry, except that the normal serum and the second antibody were substituted with normal horse serum and anti-mouse IgG, respectively.

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.
