Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunofluorescence analyses were performed according to standard protocols. IHC was performed using a ready-to-use StreptAvidin Biotin-Complex (SABC) kit (Boster Biological Technology Co. Ltd., Wuhan, China). Sections were incubated with a rabbit anti-F4/80 antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Dallas, TX, USA; 1:500 dilution), a rabbit anti-CK-19 antibody (Bioss; 1:200 dilution), a rabbit anti-amylase antibody (Bioss; 1:200 dilution), a rabbit anti-CD3 antibody (Bioss; 1:200 dilution), and a goat anti-COX-2 antibody (Santa Cruz; 1:200 dilution) for 48 h at 4°C. The corresponding secondary antibodies were subsequently incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Images were captured using a ZEISS Imager A1 microscope (Carl Zeiss AG, Oberkochen, Germany).
For double staining of immunofluorescence, a 1:200 dilution of COX-2 antibody and a 1:400 dilution of F4/80 antibody or CK-19 antibody was incubated in a humid chamber for 48 h at 4°C, and a 1:500 dilution of FITC-labeled anti-goat or CY3-labeled anti-rabbit secondary antibodies was incubated for 1.5 h. Nuclei were counterstained with 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Roche) for 5 min, dehydrated, and mounted on a coverslip with anti-fade mounting medium. Images were captured with a ZEISS Imager A2 fluorescence microscope (Carl Zeiss AG).

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) procedure was performed using the streptavidin biotin complex (SABC) kit (Boster Biological Technology). Briefly, after deparaffinization and rehydration, the tissue sections were microwaved for 10 min in citrate buffer for antigen retrieval and then incubated separately with primary rabbit polyclonal antibody against CD31 (1:100; cat. no. ab28364; Abcam) and primary rabbit polyclonal antibody against CD34 (1:100; cat. no. ab110643; Abcam) overnight at 4 °C to stain target protein expression. Following 20-min incubation with secondary anti-rabbit antibody, 3,3-diaminobenzidine (DAB) was applied for visualizing immunoreactivity. Five randomly selected fields in each slice were quantified and the integrated optical density (IOD) immunoreactivity was calculated as the relative products of the stained area using Image Pro Plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, Silver Spring, MD, USA).

Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed with the Streptavidin-Biotin Complex (SABC) kit (Boster Bio, Pleasanton, CA, USA). Following dewaxing, paraffin sections were placed in heated 3% citric acid and subsequently incubated with 3% H2O2 for 10 min to remove endogenous oxidases. The sections were then washed three times with PBS and blocked with 5% goat serum for 30 min at 37°C. After rewashing, the sections were incubated with a rabbit IgG primary antibody (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, VEGF; 1:200; ImmunoWay) overnight at 4°C. Subsequently, the samples were rewashed, treated with biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG drop-wise (1:200), and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. SABC-POD or SABC-FITC reagent was then added dropwise to the samples, and the preparation was incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The primary antibody was replaced with PBS for the negative controls. The sections intended for immunohistochemistry were stained with DAB for 70 seconds and counterstained with hematoxylin, mounted with neutral gum, and photographed under the microscope, whereas sections intended for immunofluorescence were photographed after mounting with anti-quenching mounting tablets. Immunohistochemical-positive cells were described by integral optical density using Image-pro plus 6.0.

Immunohistochemistry was performed with the Streptavidin-Biotin Complex (SABC) kit (Boster Bio, Pleasanton, CA, United States). The paraffin sections were first dewaxed and thermally repaired with a 3% citric acid repair solution. Then, 3% H2O2 was added dropwise and incubated at room temperature for 10 min. The sections were washed three times with PBS and blocked with goat serum at 37°C for 30 min. Then, the sections were incubated with diluted primary antibody [CCN1, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 α (HIF-1α), VEGF, caspase-3, Bcl-2, IL-1β, and TNF-α, 1:200, ImmunoWay, Plano, TX, United States] at 4°C overnight. On the second day, the sections were washed with PBS three times. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was dropped and incubated at 37°C for 30 min, then washed with PBS three times. The SBC-POD reagent was added dropwise to the samples and incubated at 37°C for 30 min. For negative control groups, the primary antibody was replaced with PBS. Under the microscope, 3, 3′-diaminobenzidine was applied for 50 s and counterstained with hematoxylin, sealed with neutral gum, and then observed and photographed under the microscope. Brown cells were positive for the respective antibody, and ImageJ was used to calculate the cumulative optical density of each immunohistochemical section by the double-blind method.

Mice were perfused with PBS containing 4% paraformaldehyde through a cannula inserted into the left ventricle. The calf muscle was excised, embedded in O.C.T. compound (Sakura Fine Chemical, Tokyo, Japan), frozen on dry ice, and sectioned (8 μm). For immunofluorescence measurements, acetone-fixed frozen sections were incubated with rat monoclonal anti-CD31/PECAM-1 antibody (1:100, clone MEC13.3, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) and mouse monoclonal anti-αsmooth muscle actin (αSMA) (1:100, clone 1A4, Sigma). Bound antibodies were detected using TRITC-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG (Proteintech, Chicago, USA) and FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (Proteintech) secondary antibodies. For immunohistochemistry, tissue sections probed with primary antibodies were incubated with StreptAvidin-Biotin Complex (SABC) kit, (Boster, Wuhan, P.R. China), followed by visualization with 3,3’–diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Maxim, Fuzhou, P.R. China).
CD31-positive capillary densities were counted in ten randomly chosen high power fields per mouse and expressed as the number of capillaries per mm2. Quantification of the extent of αSMA-positive microvasculatures was carried out using an Image J (NIH) system.

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.
