The frozen sections were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (Sigma #P6148) and permeabilized with 0.25% Triton X-100 (Fisher Scientific #BP151–100). After a wash with PBS/Tween-20 (Fisher Scientific #BP337–100), slides were treated with 3 M hydrochloric acid (Fisher Scientific #A144S-500) for 10 min to open the nucleus structure if needed. Slides were blocked with 10% donkey serum (Sigma #D9663) in 2% BSA (Sigma) in PBS/Tw-20 for 1 h at room temperature. Afterwards, slides were probed with primary antibodies (CD31 1:25, BD #550274; BrdU-APC 1:50, BD; Alexa Fluor 488 Mouse anti-BrdU 1:10, BD #558599; Flag M2 1:500, Sigma #F1804) and incubated overnight at 4 °C. The next day, slides were washed and incubated with the fluorescence-conjugated secondary antibody (AF488 donkey anti-rat 1:300, Invitrogen #A-21208; AF594 donkey anti-mouse 1:300, Invitrogen #A-21203; AF594 donkey anti-rat 1:300, Invitrogen #A-21209).

Tissue sections were permeabilized using 0.5% TritonX-100 in PBS for 20 min at room temperature. To prevent non-specific binding of antibodies, sections were blocked using 10% BSA in PBS for 1 h at room temperature. Primary antibodies were diluted in an antibody buffer solution (0.3% Tween-20 in PBS (PBST), 10% donkey serum), applied to the blocked sections, and allowed to incubate overnight at 4 °C. After three washes of 0.3% PBST, fluorescently labeled secondary antibodies diluted in the antibody buffer were added and incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Samples were washed three times with 0.3% PBST and once with PBS, before being mounted with Vectashield antifade mounting medium. Antibodies, along with their source and dilution, used in this study are as follows: CD31 (Abcam, ab182981, 1:500), CD68 (Invitrogen, FA-11, 1:250), CD206 (Proteintech, 18704–1-AP, 1:250), Laminin (Abcam, ab11576, 1:500), Neurofilament (Invitrogen, MA5–14981, 1:250), Alexa Fluor 594 Donkey anti-Rat (Invitrogen, A21209, 1:500), Alexa Fluor 647 Donkey anti-Rabbit (Invitrogen, A21207, 1:500).

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.
