Immunostaining of frozen cross sections used a rat monoclonal anti-mouse Ly6G (clone 1A8), rabbit polyclonal anti-citrullinated Histone H3 (H3cit, Abcam) and anti-citrullinated Histone H4 (H4cit, Millipore), a rat monoclonal anti-CD31 (BD Pharmingen), a rabbit polyclonal anti-CD66b (Abcam) or a rabbit polyclonal anti-myeloperoxidase (DAKO). Immunostaining was performed on human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) using a rabbit anti-C5b-9 complement (Abcam) or a rabbit anti-VE-Cadherin (Abcam). Apoptotic ECs were visualized using fluorescent in situ DNA strand breaks detection kit (TUNEL, Roche). Immunostaining was amplified using peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin complexes (Vector Laboratories) and peroxidase was detected using AEC (Vector Laboratories) substrate. Sections were lightly counterstained with hematoxylin, mounted in gelatin-glycerol and examined with a bright field microscope (Nikon Optiphot-2 equipped with a Nikon digital camera DXM 1200F). For double immunostaining studies, cross sections were incubated with primary antibodies followed by incubation with fluorophore-coupled anti-species antibody (Life Technologies), stained with DAPI, and mounted with fluorescent mounting medium (DAKO). Slides were kept in the dark at 4°C.

Coverslips were stained with anti-myeloperoxidase (1:500, Dako, Carpinteria, CA) and Hoechst 33342 (1:10,000, Technologies, Frederick, MD) before mounting with ProLong Gold Antifade (Life Technologies). Cells were analyzed by fluorescent microscopy using a Zeiss LSM780 confocal microscope (Zeiss). Pictures were taken using the 40X objective (×400 total magnification). Percent of neutrophils forming NETs were counted using Adobe Photoshop CS6 (San Jose, CA). EPCs were cultured and stained as previously described (25 (link)).

Untreated, PMA or Candida ssp. treated neutrophils (2 x 105 per condition) were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized (0.5% triton X-100) for 15 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA. After washing, the cells were stained for 1 h at 37 °C with anti-myeloperoxidase (1:400) (Dako, Agilent Technologies, Carpinteria, USA) and anti-calprotectin (clone MAC 387; 1:400) (abcam). Two more washes were made, followed by addition of secondary antibodies coupled to Alexa 568 and Alexa 488 (Molecular Probes) and incubated for 1 h at 37 °C. Next, cells were counterstained with ProLong Gold antifade reagent with DAPI (P36941; Molecular Probes). Epifluorescence images were captured using a Zeiss Axioplan upright epifluorescence microscope with 100× objectives and images were captured using a Media Cybernetics Evolution MP camera and Q Imaging software.

Immunofluorescence Imaging of Cardiac Tissue

Perfused hearts were snap frozen in optimal cutting temperature medium and cryosectioned at 8‐ to 10‐μm thickness. After fixation with 2% paraformaldehyde, sections were blocked in 3% bovine serum albumin, and then incubated with anti‐CD41 (clone MWReg30; 0.5 μg/mL; Biolegend) or anti‐myeloperoxidase (0.32 μg/mL; Dako) antibodies overnight at 4°C. After washing, samples were incubated with Alexa555‐conjugated anti‐rat IgG or Alexa488‐conjugated anti‐rabbit IgG (1.5 μg/mL) for 2 hours at RT. Sections were then washed, and DNA was counterstained with Hoechst 33342 (1:10 000) for 10 minutes before mounting with antifade Fluorogel mounting medium (Electron Microscopy Sciences). Images were acquired using a Zeiss Axiovert 200 inverted wide‐field fluorescence microscope coupled to an Axiocam MRm monochromatic charge‐coupled device camera. Channels were acquired in grayscale and pseudocolored with Zeiss Axiovision 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.
