Sections were rehydrated and permeabilized with 0.2% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 min. Samples were blocked with 3% BSA in PBS and incubated with primary antibodies (anti-Six2, 1:500; 11562-1-AP Proteintech, Chicago, IL, anti-Collagen IV, 1:500; ab6566 Abcam, anti-Pax2; 1:500; ab79389, Abcam). Samples were then incubated with secondary antibodies, Alexa Fluor 594 conjugate and Zenon IgG labeling Kit Alexa Fluor 488 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA), for 1 h. Nuclear counterstaining was performed using DAPI or DRAQ5 (BioStatus, Leicestershire, UK), followed by mounting in Prolong-Gold (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Images were obtained by confocal (FV1000; Olympus) or standard (IX-71, DP-73; Olympus) microscopy.

The RPE cells isolated from the eyes of CXCR5 KO mice and WT-control mice were seeded and cultured on a cellulose matrix with a pore size of 0.45 μm (R9NA09917, Millicell, Merk Millipore) for 4 weeks in complete N1 media. Before the fixation, the RPE cell cytoplasm was tagged with calcein AM (Thermo Fisher; C1430; 1 μg/ml) in culture for 30 min. Cels were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde (VVR Life Science) for 10 min and blocked with 2.5% normal goat serum for 1 h at RT. Cells were fixed with, blocked with BSA as described above, and incubated overnight at 4 °C with β-amyloid and APOE antibodies (Table 1), followed by detection with Cy5 conjugated anti-rabbit (A10523, 1:1000; Thermo Fisher) and anti-goat (ab6566; 1:1000; Abcam) secondary antibody. Following washing with PBS-T three times for 15 min, membranes were embedded in OCT compound snap-frozen using liquid nitrogen-cooled isopropanol, and 5 μm cross-sections were prepared. The resulting samples were mounted with ProLong Diamond antifade reagent and imaged.

NRK-52E cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (Beyotime, Suzhou, China) to extract the total protein. The protein was separated in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA). Then, the membranes were placed in 5% milk for 2 h, incubated with 1000 times diluted antibodies of Col IV (ab6566), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA, ab32575), p62 (ab109012), microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3)-II/I (ab128025), Beclin 1 (ab62557), phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN, ab32199), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K, ab189403), phosphorylated (p)-PI3K (ab182651), total (t)-protein kinase B (t-AKT, ab8805), p-AKT (ab38449), p-mTOR (p-mTOR, ab109268), and t-mTOR (ab63552, Abcam, Cambridge, USA) at 4°C overnight; then anti-mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody (1:2000; ab150113, Abcam, Cambridge, USA) was added and the membranes were incubated for 1 h. The bands were analyzed by an imaging system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, USA) and ImageJ software (NIH Image, Bethesda, USA).

7 μm wax embedded sections were stained for PYY using primary polyclonal rabbit anti-PYY (1:1000, Abcam, ab22663), with secondary FITC-conjugated chicken anti-rabbit antibody (1:200, Abcam, ab6825). Staining for GLP-1 was carried out using primary polyclonal mouse anti-GLP-1 with secondary TRITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse (1:200, Abcam, ab5867). BrdU was stained for using primary monoclonal mouse anti-BrdU (1:100, Sigma, 13843420001) with secondary TRITC-conjugated polyclonal goat F(Ab) anti-mouse (1:200). 5HT was stained for using primary goat anti-5HT (1:500 Abcam, ab66047) with polyclonal donkey anti-goat (1:50, Abcam, ab6566). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) in Fluroshield (Abcam). Immunofluorescent images were acquired on a Carl Zeiss Axiovert 100S TV microscope. The operator performing the cell-counting was blinded to the groupings.

The molecules of CD8, IFN-γ, and TNF-α were detected by immunofluorescence in the paraffin-embedded sections of LSG tissue. The same method was used as IHC described above, but fluorescence-conjugated secondary antibodies were used and DAPI was used as a chromatin counterstain. The primary antibodies were a mouse monoclonal antibody to CD8α (dilution 1:50, ab17147; Abcam), a rabbit monoclonal antibody to IFN-γ (0.02 mg/mL, MAB2853; Biotechne R&D Systems), and a goat polyclonal antibody to TNF-α (0.02 mg/mL, PA5-46945; Invitrogen). The secondary antibodies were goat anti-mouse IgG (FITC conjugated, dilution 1:100, Xi’an Zhuangzhi, China), goat anti-rabbit IgG (Cy3 conjugated, dilution 1:800, Xi’an Zhuangzhi, China), donkey anti-goat IgG with (Cy5 conjugated, dilution 1:2000, ab6566; Abcam). The stained slides were digitized with a Pannoramic scanner (3DHISTECH, Budapest, Hungary) and were analyzed by corresponding SlideViewer software.

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.
