Chick Metacarpal Development Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Chick metacarpals at E8 were dissected, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and frozen in O.C.T. (Tissue-Tek) for making sections (20 μm thickness). For col2a antibody staining, tissue sections were pretreated with 1 mg ml−1 pepsin in 0.1 N HCl and blocked in 10% fetal bovine serum before incubating with anti-col2a (1:50, DSHB) and further anti-mouse alexa-488 (1:250, Invitrogen). Phalloidin alexa-546 (1:100, Molecular Probes) was used for counterstaining. For section in situ hybridization, tissue sections were hybridized to anti-chick Ihh RNA probes labelled with digoxigenin. Tissue sections of the post-imaging chick metacarpal (expressing GFP) were stained with Phalloidin alexa-546 (1:100, Molecular Probes). The number of green (2483 PZ cells) and red signals (2560 PZ cells) of the illuminated half of the tissue was counted using ImageJ.

Monolayers of primary gastric epithelial cells derived from C57BL/6WT, C57BL/6Nod1−/−, FVB/N INS-GASNod1+/+, and FVB/N INS-GASNod1−/− mice were infected for 1 hour with H. pylori strains 7.13 or PMSS1. After infection, monolayers were subjected to c-Jun immunofluorescence staining as previously described (26 (link)). Briefly, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (Thermo Scientific) for 1 hour and then blocked with 5% goat serum (Sigma) in PBS for 1 hour. Samples were incubated with an anti-phospho-c-Jun antibody (1:500 dilution; Cell Signaling) overnight at 4°C. Samples were then incubated with Alexa 488-anti-rabbit (1:1000; Invitrogen), Alexa 546-Phalloidin (1:500; Invitrogen), and Hoechst 33342 (1:1000; Invitrogen) for 1 hour at room temperature. Slides were mounted using ProLong Glass (Invitrogen), and images were acquired in an Olympus FV-1000 confocal microscopy.

Tissues from third-instar larvae were processed as described previously (Külshammer and Uhlirova, 2013 (link)). The following primary and secondary antibodies were used at the indicated dilutions: mouse anti-MMP1 (mixture of 14A3D2, 3A6B4 and 3B8D12, 1:300), rat anti-ELAV (1:200; 7E8A10) and mouse anti-Fasciclin III (1:300, 7G10), all from Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank (Iowa); and rabbit anti-Jun (1:500; present study). After washing, samples were incubated with a corresponding secondary antibody coupled to Cy3 or Cy5 (Jackson ImmunoResearch) for 2 h. Samples were counterstained with Alexa 546-phalloidin (Invitrogen) and DAPI to visualize actin filaments and nuclei, respectively. The lacZ activity was detected in imaginal discs using a standard X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-d-galactopyranoside) staining procedure described previously (Külshammer and Uhlirova, 2013 (link)).

Embryos were fixed overnight in 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS at 4C. Following two washes for 5 min each in PBSTw (PBS + 0.1% Tween-20), embryos were manually dechorionated. To permeabilize, embryos were incubated for 2 hr in PBS + 2% Triton X100. Following two washes for 5 min each in PBSTw, embryos were blocked for 1 hr with 2% BSA in PBSTw. Embryos were incubated for 2 hr at RT in Alexa 546 phalloidin (Invitrogen) diluted 1:40 in 2%BSA/PBSTw. Following 6 washes for 10 min each in PBSTw, embryos were mounted in agarose for confocal microscopy.

Tarsal plates were stained with biotinylated HA binding protein (HABP-385911; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) in staining buffer (0.25% DMSO, 0.01% saponin, and 15% sucrose in PBS) overnight under constant rotation at 4°C followed by incubation of the NeutrAvidin Alexa Fluor 555 conjugate overnight under constant rotation at 4°C protected from light. The eyelids and tarsal plates were washed with staining buffer followed by PBS and mounted on glass slides in Fluoromount-G (SouthernBiotech., Birmingham, AL, USA). The eyelids were imaged using an LSM 800 confocal microscope with Axiocam 503 color (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany). For analyzing the distribution of HA matrices, the tarsal plate whole mounts were imaged with Aryscan by using the 63× objective.

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.
