Dab sk 4100

To localize, within the osteotomies, cells that had initiated differentiation down an osteogenic lineage, immunostaining was performed using standard procedures [18 (link)]. In brief, following deparaffinization, endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched by 3% hydrogen peroxide for 5 min, and then washed in PBS. Slides were blocked with 5% goat serum (Vector S-1000) for 1 h at room temperature. The appropriate primary antibody was added and incubated overnight at 4 °C, then washed in PBS. The primary antibodies used in this study were Osterix (1:1200; ab22552, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) and Cathepsin K (1:200; ab19027, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). Samples were incubated with appropriate biotinylated secondary antibodies (Vector BA-x) for 30 min, then washed in PBS. An avidin/biotinylated enzyme complex (Kit ABC Peroxidase Standard Vectastain PK-4000, Vectorlabs, Burlingame, CA, USA) was added and incubated for 30 min, and a 3,3′-diaminobenzidine (DAB) substrate kit (Kit Vector Peroxidase substrate DAB SK-4100, Vectorlabs, Burlingame, CA, USA) was used to develop the color reaction. Phalloidin immunostaining was performed using Palloidin Control, DyLight 488 conjugate (1:300; PI21833, Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA).

IHC staining was performed as previously described^{2 (link)}. Briefly, tissue sections were subjected to antigen retrieval by incubation with Target Retrieval Solution (Citrate [S1699] or Tris-EDTA buffers [S2367]; Agilent-DAKO, Santa Clara, Ca) kit at 95 °C for 20 min and subsequently incubated with primary antibodies with optimum dilutions (FOXP3 [1:10]; CD4, HLA class I, HMB45 and mast cell tryptase [all at 1:100 dilution]; CD68 [1:400 dilution] and CD8 [1:500 dilution]; TCR gamma/delta [1:50 dilution]). For detection of primary antibodies, slides were incubated with anti-mouse, anti-rat, or anti-rabbit antibodies at 1:1000 dilution and visualized by DAB (SK-4100) or AEC (SK-4200; both Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA) chromogens. Binding of mouse anti-human TCR γ/δ was visualized by using anti-mouse Qdot 625 at 1:500 dilution.
