Freshly isolated lungs were perfused with Methacarnoy’s solution (60% absolute methanol, 30% chloroform, and 10% acetic acid), fixed in solution for 24 h, and then washed in 100% methanol before embedding in paraffin. Freshly isolated eyeballs were enucleated and fixed in Methacarnoy’s solution. 5-µm sections were stained with periodic acid–Schiff’s (PAS) reagent or subjected to immunohistochemical analysis with the following antibodies: Muc5b, generated by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptides corresponding to the unique peptide sequence ELGQKVKCDVSSGLV, commercially available Muc5ac antibody (45M1; Sigma-Aldrich), or DCLK1 (Abcam; Ab31704). Bound primary antibody was detecting using the following antibodies; goat anti-rabbit IgG Alexa Fluor 488 (Invitrogen) and goat anti-mouse IgG Alexa Fluor 488 (Invitrogen). Sections were counterstained with DAPI. Images were captured using a Zeiss Axioimager.D2 upright microscope/Coolsnap HQ2 camera (Photometrics) through MetaVue Software. Specific bandpass filter sets for DAPI and FITC were used to prevent bleed-through from one channel to the next. Images were then processed and analyzed using ImageJ.

Immunohistochemical and Immunofluorescence Analyses of FFPE Tumor Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For immunohistochemistry analyses, samples were fixed overnight in 4% formalin solution and embedded in paraffin. In brief, 3-µm-thick sections of FFPE tumors were deparaffinized and antigen retrieval was performed by boiling the sections in citrate buffer at pH 6.0 or EDTA at pH 9.0 for 20 min. Primary antibodies used were as follows: Dclk1 (1:50; pH 6.0; Abcam), Sox9 (1:50; pH 6.0; Millipore), Ki67 (1:50; pH 6.0; Cell Marque), corresponding secondary antibody detection kits for reduced background on murine tissue were used (Histofine Simple Stain Mouse MAX PO; Medac) and stained on an automated stainer (LabVision Autostainer 480S; Thermo Fisher Scientific). All slides were scanned with a Panoramic 250 slide scanner (3D Histech.com).
For immunofluorescence, frozen sections were incubated in the target retrieval solution (Dako) for 7 min. Primary antibodies are listed in the Cell lines and reagents section. Slides were analyzed using a sp5 confocal microscope (Leica).

At least 15 premalignant tumors per group were used to perform immunostaining experiments as described earlier [5 (link)] in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4. The slides were prepared for immunostaining using deparaffinization, rehydration, and antigen retrieval. Finally, immunostainings were performed using a SuperPictureTM 3rd Gen IHC detection kit (Cat#87-9673; Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA) as per the manufacturer’s instruction. Briefly, the samples were blocked for endogenous peroxidase activity followed by incubation in protein-blocking buffer for 20 min. Tissue samples were then washed and incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies including ALDH1 (Cat#ab23375, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, dilution 1:100), BMI1 (Cat#NBP18732, Novus Biologicals, Littleton, CO, dilution 1:100), CD133 (Cat#PAB12663, Abnova, Taipei, Taiwan, dilution 1:100), DCLK1 (Cat#ab37994, Abcam, dilution 1:25), LGR5 (Cat#CF503316, Origene, Rockville, MD, dilution 1:100), MSI1 (cat#ab52865, Abcam, dilution 1:100), and β-catenin (Cat#9587S, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, dilution 1:200).

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.
