Liver sections (7 µm thick) were fixed in cold acetone, and stained with hematoxylin/eosin staining. For triple immunohistochemical analyses, sections were reacted with rat anti-mouse CD31 (1:100, Dako), rabbit anti-mouse Desmin (1:200, Dako), and mouse anti-human α-SMA (1:50, Sigma-Aldrich) followed by the appropriate fluorescent secondary antibodies (n = 72). Serial sections were incubated with either rat anti-F4/80 (1:100, BIO-RAD) (n = 36) or mouse anti-Ki67 (1:200; Sigma-Aldrich) (n = 36), followed by appropriate fluorescent secondary antibodies. Irrelevant appropriate immunoglobulins were used as negative controls. Metastases were microphotographed using a Zeiss Axioskop fluorescence microscope under the same conditions. Specific immunostaining was quantified using FIJI-ImageJ software. Results were expressed as the percentage of specifically colored tissue area relative to the whole micrometastatic foci area.

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.
