Fluorescence and bright field microscope images were collected using a DP80 dual color/monochrome sensor CCD camera (Olympus America, Center Valley, PA) with CellSens Dimension software (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions) with Extended Focal Imaging (EFI) function. Wide-filed images were also collected using defined scanning area mode with multiple image alignment (MIA) algorithm. Imaging experiments were repeated at least three times on independent sets of vector-injected mice. Confocal fluorescence microscope images were collected using an Olympus FV1000 confocal microscope equipped with an UPlanApo 100×/1.35 numerical aperture oil immersion objective and analyzed with Fluoview version 1.7a software (Olympus, Center Valley, PA). Collected images were processed into standard tagged image file (TIF) format using CellSens Dimension software (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions) with Extended Focal Imaging (EFI) function.

ADPase-stained retinal flatmounts were used to determine the tortuosity index and vessel diameter. For the tortuosity index, a line was traced along the tortuous arteries using the polyline tool compared to a straight line traced from the vessel origin at the optic disk to the branch point using the arbitrary line tool of the CellSens software (Olympus America Inc., Center Valley, PA, USA) as previously described [33 (link),34 (link),60 (link),61 (link)]. Vessel diameter at the optic disk was quantified using the arbitrary line tool of the CellSens Dimension software (Olympus America Inc., Center Valley, PA, USA). The number of endothelial cells present in the nerve fiber layer (NFL)/ganglion cell layer (GCL), the total retinal thickness, and the thickness of the NFL/GCL, inner plexiform layer (IPL), INL (inner nuclear layer), and ONL (outer nuclear layer) were quantified in the H&E stained sections using the count and measure of region of interest and arbitrary line tools of CellSens Dimension software (Olympus America Inc., Center Valley, PA, USA).

Clonogenic assays were performed to analyze stem cell behavior and attachment-dependent colony formation and the growth of cancer cells as described previously [30 (link)]. Briefly, cells were seeded at low density (1000 cells/well in a 6-well plate) in triplicates, treated with HDACi at the indicated concentrations and incubated for 10 days at 37 °C. Subsequently, cells were rinsed 2 times with PBS and fixed for 30 min with 6% v/v glutaraldehyde and stained with 0.5% crystal violet simultaneously, washed with tap water and dried before microscopical analysis. The number and size of colonies were calculated with CellSens Dimension Software (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions GmbH, Münster, Germany).

The ovarian samples of mice were fixed, paraffin embedded, and processed in 5-μm-thick serial sections. After deparaffinization and rehydration through ethanol with gradient concentration (100–75%), the sections were treated with 3% H2O2 at room temperature and microwaved for 15 min in citrate buffer for antigen retrieval. Sections were incubated with primary anti-rabbit Lcp2 (1:200, Proteintech, China), anti-rabbit H2-Ab1 (1:200, Abclonal, China) antibody at 4°C overnight, and secondary horseradish peroxidase-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG (SA1022, Boster, Wuhan, China) for 30 min at room temperature. With DAB chromogenic agent (AR1022, Boster, Wuhan, China) and subsequent counterstaining by hematoxylin, the sections were visualized. The images were captured by using the cellSens Dimension software (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions GmbH; Germany), and the relative expression was analyzed by Image Pro Plus 6.0 software (Media Cybernetics, Silver Spring, MD, United States).

Muscle cross-sections (10 µm thick) were obtained using a cryostat (HM500M Microm International, Fisher Scientific, Illkirch, France) at −20 °C. Cross-sections were labeled with anti-laminin-α1 (L9393 Sigma, Saint-Quentin-Fallavier, France) to outline the fibers, and resolved with corresponding secondary antibodies conjugated to Alexa-Fluor 488 (Invitrogen, Cergy-Pontoise, France). Observations and image acquisitions were captured with a high-resolution ORCA-Flash4.0 LT+ Digital CMOS camera coupled to an IX-73 microscope (Olympus) and Cell-Sens dimension software (Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions, Münster, Germany). The cross-sectional area (CSA) was determined for each fiber, using ImageJ 1.53f51 (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/ accessed on 17 May 2022).

Investigating Fungal Growth and Stress Responses

Colony growth and microsclerotia formation on media containing 2% agar were studied after point-inoculation of 5 × 104 spores and incubation at 25 °C for ten days. PDM, SXM, and Czapek-Dox medium (CDM, modified from [44 (link)] as described by [45 (link)]) were used. Morphology under different stress conditions was tested by replacing sucrose in CDM with 3% cellulose or supplementing CDM with 0.8 M sorbitol, 0.5 M sodium chloride, 0.004% SDS, or 0.000075% hydrogen peroxide. Ex-planta phenotypes were examined by binocular microscopy (SZX12-ILLB2-200, illuminated with KL1500-LCD light source and equipped with SC30 camera, Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) with cellSens Dimension software (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

J774A.1
cells were seeded with a density of 5 × 105 cells
per well on poly-d-lysine-precoated glass coverslips, placed
inside wells of a 6-well tissue culture plate, and incubated overnight.
On the second day, cell culture medium was replaced with 2.5 mL of
50 μM DOX in various nanoparticles (i.e., DOX-NPs, DOX-M-NPs,
DOX-AI-M-NPs, and DOX-AS-M-NPs). Cells were incubated for 20 min,
followed by five additional minutes of incubation with 50 μM
Hoechst 33342 in a 37 °C incubator and protected from light.
Cells were then washed with PBS three times, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde,
and observed under a fluorescence microscope (Olympus BX 53, Center
Valley, PA) connected to the Olympus cellSens Dimension software.
To investigate the effect of pH on the cellular uptake, nanoparticles
were preincubated with PBS (pH 6.8) at 37 °C for 6 h before further
incubating with cells.
In order to track the intracellular fate
of nanoparticles, DOX-AS-M-NPs were prepared with 5% (w/w) of PLGA
752H that was conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).34 Cells were incubated with nanoparticles for
15, 30, or 60 min, followed by five additional minutes of incubation
with Hoechst 33342. Cells were then washed, fixed, and observed under
a microscope as mentioned above.

The dissected sciatic nerves were fixed with 2.5% glutaraldehyde overnight at 4 °C and postfixed with 1% osmium tetroxide (OsO4) for 2 h, dehydrated, and embedded in epoxy resin. Semi-thin sections (1 µm) were cut vertically with an ultramicrotome (EM UC7i, Leica Microsystems, Denver, CO, http://www.leica-microsystems.com) and stained with 1% toluidine blue solution, and images were captured under a light microscope (Olympus IX-73). The density of the myelinated fibers (fibers/1000 µm2) was analyzed from six non-overlapping visual fields per specimen. On the other hand, ultrathin sections (60 nm) were stained with lead citrate and uranyl acetate, and images were captured under a transmission electron microscope (TEM, JEM-1400). All these services were provided by the Electron Microscopy Resource Lab of Perelman School of Medicine at UPenn. The diameter of myelinated fibers, axons, and the thickness of the myelin sheath was evaluated by cellSens Dimension software (Olympus), and the G-ratio was calculated as the ratio of the inner axonal diameter to the total outer diameter of the fiber.

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.
