Five-micrometer sections of formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tumor tissue were mounted on charged glass slides and dried at 58 °C for 60 min. Slides were first deparaffinized with xylene then epitope retrieval carried out using citrate buffer in a 2100 Retriever pressure cooker (PickCell Laboratories, San Jose, CA, USA). The sections were blocked with 10% goat serum for 1 h, then incubated with primary antibody (anti-p27, 1 : 50, Abcam (ab7961)) overnight, followed by an HRP-linked goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (1 : 300, Pierce Biotechnology). The sections were developed with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA) for 2 min and nuclei counterstained with hematoxylin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) for 2 min. PBS washes were performed between all steps. The slides were dehydrated in graded alcohols (100%, 95% and 80% ethanol (vol/vol) in H2O), cleared in xylene and coverslips attached with Permount (Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Slides were scanned using a ScanScope XT Digital Slide Scanner (Aperio, Vista, CA, USA) and data were analyzed with the positive pixel count algorithm (ImageScope, Aperio).

The livers were fixed in phosphate-buffered 10% formalin for 24 h, and paraffin sections were then prepared. Immunohistochemical staining was carried out with the EnVision/HRP system (Dako, Carpinteria, CA, USA) on deparaffinized sections treated with Target Retrieval Solution (Dako). The antibodies used were as follows: anti-insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) (ab9574; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-α-fetoprotein (AFP) (14550-1-AP, for mouse tissues; Proteintech Group, Chicago, IL, USA), anti-AFP (A0008, for human tissues; Dako), and anti-trefoil factor 3 (TFF3) (Abbiotec, San Diego, CA, USA). 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA) was used for signal detection. For the detection of the TFF3 peptide, we applied signal amplification using the TSA Plus DIG Kit (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA). In situ hybridization for non-coding H19 mRNA was carried out on deparaffinized sections using the mouse H19 QuantiGene ViewRNA Probe Set (VB6-16706; Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and the QuantiGene ViewRNA ISH Tissue Assay Kit (Affymetrix).

Tumor tissues were fixed with 10% neutral-buffered formalin for 24 h and embedded in paraffin. Paraffin-embedded 5-μm sections were deparaffinized and rehydrated, washed in distilled water, and subjected to heat-mediated antigen retrieval. Endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched by treatment with 3% H2O2 for 30 min, and sections were washed with phosphate-buffered saline for 5 min. The sections were blocked for 1 h with a blocking agent (Invitrogen) and incubated overnight with antibodies against LDHB or PDH (1:1000, Cell Signaling) at 4 °C. The sections were then incubated at room temperature with a biotinylated secondary antibody (1:500, Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA) for 1 h. The slides were washed and treated with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories). Sections were then counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted in aqua mount (Vector Laboratories).

Liver Injury and Inflammation Analysis

Paraffin sections were prepared from formalin-fixed livers. Hepatotoxicity was assessed following hematoxylin and eosin staining. Liver sections were scored on a 0–5 scale (1.0 intervals) according to the severity of centrilobular necrosis as previously performed [6 (link)]. Immunohistochemistry for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was probed using a kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. F4/80 was detected by incubating rat monoclonal primary antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, MA). Secondary antibodies were used before developing with 3, 3’ diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA).
Acetone-fixed frozen sections were stained with FITC-coupled anti-CD11b and PE-coupled Gr1 mAbs (BD Biosciences). Pictures were taken on a confocal microscope (Zeiss). Quantification was performed on 5–6 APAP-treated control or Vnn1-deficient mice 30 hours after APAP administration. Seven independent sections taken 30µm apart were prepared for each mouse and perivascular infiltrating cells were counted within each. Error bars represent the variability from seven pictures taken for each mouse.

Paraffin-embedded full thickness placental samples were sliced into 3 µm sections, dewaxed and heated in 0.01 M pH 6 sodium citrate buffer for antigen retrieval. After blocking endogenous peroxidase activity and non-specific binding, the sections were incubated overnight with the following primary antihuman antibodies: mouse monoclonal anti-CD3 (F7.2.38, 1:70, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), mouse monoclonal anti-CD20 (L26, 1:126, Dako), mouse monoclonal anti-CD68 (PG-M1, 1:30, Dako), rabbit monoclonal anti-CD11c (EP1347Y, 1:500, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and rabbit polyclonal anti-ACKR2 (1:400, Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA). Sections were then incubated with the appropriate chromogenic secondary antibody (ImmPRESS Polymer Detection Kit, anti-rabbit and anti-mouse, Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA). The immunoreactivity was developed using 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories) as chromogen. Isotype-matched control antibodies were included as a negative control and tonsil sections as a positive control. The sections were observed under a light microscope (Olympus BX43, Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) and photographed by digital camera (DP22 using Olympus Cell Sense Entry 2.2 for imaging acquisition).

Sections were deparaffinized and hydrated and the slides were incubated with 10 mM sodium citrate. Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Slides were washed in TBS with 0.05% Tween-20 (Sigma), blocked with serum-free protein block (Dako, Carpinteria, CA, USA), and immunostained with Vectastain ABC (Vector Laboratories, Inc., Burlingame, CA, USA). Antibodies against CD68 (1:100 dilution, 125212; Abcam), CD163 (1:100 dilution, 87099; Abcam), and NOS 2 (1:350 dilution, N-20; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) were incubated in TBS/Tween buffer overnight at 4 °C. Color was developed with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Vector Laboratories, Inc.) and counterstained with H&E. An isotype immunoglobulin G (IgG) was used as negative control. CD68+ and CD163+ macrophage densities were assessed in five fields of view in the alveolar space by the point-counting technique, using a 100-point grid of known area (104 μm2) attached to the eyepiece of the microscope [33 ]. The point-counting technique was assessed independently by one coauthor (VM), who was blinded to group allocation.

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.
