Masson’s trichrome staining was performed in order to visualise the infarct.29 Hearts were sectioned into 5 sets of slides, 10 slides per set. Sections were fixed for 1 h in 4% PFA followed by overnight incubation in Bouin’s solution (HT10132, Sigma), both at room temperature. Slides were washed in tap water, and nuclei were labelled with Weigert’s Haematoxylin solution (HT1079, Sigma). Cytoplasm staining was achieved by staining with Beibrich Scarlet-Acid Fuchsin Solution (HT151, Sigma) followed by an incubation in phosphotungstic/phosphomolybdic acid solution with ddH2O in a 1:1:2 solution respectively. Slides were incubated in Aniline Blue Solution (b8563, Sigma), washed in ddH2O and placed in 1% glacial acetic acid. Sections were dehydrated via an EtOH gradient washed in Histoclear (HS-202, National Diagnostics) and mounted using Histomount (HS-103, National Diagnostics). Each set of slides from each individual heart were imaged and analysed using the Leica Digital Image Hub. The left ventricular area was calculated by measuring the epicardial area and subtracting the endocardial area. The infarct area was then measured and the percentage of left ventricle that was infarcted was calculated as a percentage of the total left ventricle.

Lung Tissue Processing and Staining

Lung tissues were preserved in fixative 10% buffered formalin at room temperature. After 1 week formalin was replaced with 70% ethanol and stored at room temperature until processing. All samples were submitted and processed with hematoxylin and eosin and trichrome staining by the IU Histology core facility. Fixed samples were processed for paraffin embedding in blocks and cut by rotary microtome into 5 μm thick sections. Sections were mounted on glass slides and stained. For H&E staining, slides were stained following the LINISTAIN GLX linear stainer method with slides undergoing washes in xylenes, ethanol, Harris’ hematoxlin (Surgipath), 70% Ethanol + HCl, 0.3% ammonium hydroxide + water, and eosin (Surgipath). For Trichrome staining, deparaffinized slides were fixed in Bouin’s solution (37% Formaldehyde + Picric acid + Glacial acetic acid) and microwaved on high for 1 minute. Slides were stained with Gill’s No. 3 Hematoxylin (Surgipath), Scott solution (0.2% sodium bicarbonate + 2% magnesium sulfate), Beibrich Scarlet-Acid Fuchsin Solution (Sigma), Phosphotungstic / Phosphomolybdic Acid (Sigma), and Aniline Blue solution (Sigma).

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.
