Floating coronal brain sections (25 μm) were washed in 0.1 M PBS for 30 min and then blocked with 10% normal donkey serum with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS at room temperature for 1 h, as previously described by our laboratory (Zhang et al., 2009 (link)). Sections were then incubated with the corresponding primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The primary antibodies used in this study were the following: rat anti-BrdU (1:200), mouse anti-NeuN (1:500, EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA), goat anti-DCX (1:50, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), goat polyclonal anti-MAP2 (1:100, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), mouse anti-Ki67 (1:200, Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank), mouse anti-GFAP (1:200, Proteintech) and rabbit anti-Iba1(1:200, Proteintech). Sections were washed 3 times and were subsequently incubated with secondary antibodies (Alexa Fluor 568 donkey anti-mouse or rabbit, and Alexa Fluor 488 nm donkey anti-mouse or rat) at room temperature for 1 h. Sections were then mounted with a water-based mounting medium with anti-fading vectashield mounting medium for fluorescence with 4, 6- diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (H-1200; Vector Laboratories, Inc., CA, USA) and were cover slipped afterwards. Images were captured using a LSM510 Meta confocal laser microscope (Carl Zeiss).

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.
