Comprehensive Liver Pathology Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver pathology was evaluated using conventional histological analysis on hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) stained sections. Further evaluation of pathology was achieved by high-resolution light microscopy using glutaraldehyde-fixed, osmium tetroxide post-fixed, epoxy-embedded, and toluidine blue-stained sections (11 (link), 13 (link)) and electron microscopy. Liver fibrosis was evaluated by Sirius red staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded liver sections for visualization of collagen. Accumulation of intrahepatic fat and collagen content was quantified by computerized densitometry using the ImagePro Plus software (11 (link)–13 (link)). Further evaluation of liver fibrosis was assessed by measuring transforming growth factor alpha (TGF- α) and beta (TGF- β) (18 (link), 19 (link)) by quantitative RT-PCR.For electron microscopic studies, thin sections from selected tissue blocks were sectioned with an LKB ultramichrotome, stained with uranyl acetate, and examined with a Hitachi 600 electron microscope (Hitachi, Indianapolis, USA), as described before (11 (link), 13 (link)).

Aging-Related Muscle Atrophy Study

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mice were euthanized with a lethal intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbital (200 mg/kg body weight). Blood samples were collected from each animal by cardiac puncture immediately after death, and serum was separated and stored at −20°C for subsequent testosterone assay. The gastrocnemius muscles from each mouse were removed and weighed. Portions of the tissues were snap frozen in liquid N2 and stored frozen for subsequent analysis by Western blotting. Additional portions from each mouse were either fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde for electron microscopy or 4% formalin for histological and immunohistochemical studies. Portions of glutaraldehyde fixed muscles were further diced into small pieces, post-fixed into 1% osmium tetroxide and embedded in Epon 812 as described previously (Sinha-Hikim et al. 2007 ). Thin sections from selected tissue blocks were cut with an LKB ultramichrotome, stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and examined with a Hitachi 600 electron microscope (Hitachi, Indianapolis, IN). The rationale for using gastrocnemius muscles was based on the results of several earlier studies, which show that this muscle exhibits a substantial decline in mass with age (Martin et al. 2007 ; Braga et al. 2008 (link); Kovacheva et al. 2010 (link); Sinha-Hikim et al. 2013 (link)).

Ultrastructural Analysis of Pulmonary Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Heart and lungs were obtained en bloc after euthanasia and perfused with a mixture of 2% formaldehyde and 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate buffer (pH 7.4). The mixture was gently infused through the right ventricle until no visible blood could be seen coming out of the left atrium. The perfused lungs were then immersed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde overnight. Sections of 60 nm thickness were obtained by ultramicrotome. Images of the pulmonary vascular endothelial cells (EC) and type 2 alveolar cells (AT2) were obtained by Hitachi 600 electron microscope provided by our core facility. Images were obtained by personnel blinded to study group assignments.

TEM is the most reliable approach for monitoring autophagy and was used in this study. The HUVECs were cultured in 6 cm dishes with 500µM of Hcy for 48 h.Cells were collected and fixed. The ultrathin 50nm sections were cut by use of an ultramicrotome, stained with2% (w/v) uranyl acetate and lead citrate, then examined with a Hitachi 600 electron microscope (Hitachi, Japan).

Lung Deposition of ProLung™-budesonide

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lung specimens were processed using standard protocols and were evaluated under transmission electron microscopy to evaluate using a Hitachi 600 electron microscope. Data was evaluated to determine the stability and deposition of the ProLung™-budesonide in the lung. Specimens were processed for two-week study, after one dose of ProLung™-budesonide was administered via inhalation.

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.
