Fresh and glutaraldehyde fixed pericardial samples were embedded in Optimal Cutting Temperature material and cryosectioned (8 μm). Sections were air dried, fixed with acetone for 10 min and stored at −80 °C until used. Fresh and glutaraldehyde fixed samples were also fixed in formalin and paraffin embed for Masson’s Trichrome histology staining. Tissue sections were stained to detect the Gal antigen and collagens. Fresh and glutaraldehyde fixed tissues were stained with biotin-conjugated GSIB-4 (3 μg/ml) and murine monoclonal antibodies (2 μg/ml) to Collagen I (Anti-Collagen Type I, Sigma-Aldrich), III (Anti-Collagen Type III, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), and V (Anti-Collagen Type V, Abcam). Lectin and antibody solutions were produced in dPBS with 1% BSA and primary incubations were at 4 °C for 12 h. GSIB-4 binding was detected with HRP-conjugated streptavidin (Sigma-Aldrich) and mouse anti-collagen antibody binding was detected with biotin conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (Sigma-Aldrich) and HRP-conjugated streptavidin. All sections were incubated with 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine (Sigma-Aldrich) and counter stained with haematoxylin.

TL fasciae sections were immunolabeled with goat anti-collagen-type I or rabbit anti-collagen type III antibodies. Briefly, endogenous peroxidases were inactivated with PBS + 0.5% H2O2 for 10 min at room temperature; slides were then preincubated with blocking buffer (0.1% BSA in PBS) for 1 h at room temperature to decrease background staining. Sections were then incubated overnight at 4 °C with anti-collagen type I (1:400, SouthernBiotech, Birmingham, AL, USA) or anti-collagen type III (1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) antibodies after washing with PBS; antigens were detected by incubation with secondary antibodies labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and 3,3–diaminobenzidine (Liquid DAB plus substrate Chromogen System kit; Dako, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Negative controls were performed by the omission of the primary antibody, confirming the specificity of the immunostaining.

hiPSC-CMs and 3D-hiPSC-CT were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. hiPSC-CMs and 3D-hiPSC-CT were labeled by primary antibodies such as anti-cardiac troponin T (cTnT, 1:200 dilution; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-sarcomeric alpha actinin (α-actinin, 1:400; Sigma), anti-vimentin (1:100; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), anti-connexin43 (1:100; Abcam), anti-MLC2a (1:100; Synaptic Systems GmbH), anti-MLC2v (1:200; Proteintech, Rosemont) anti-fibronectin (1:200; Abcam), anti-laminin (1:30; Sigma), anti-collagen type I (1:100; Abcam), or anti-collagen type III (1:100; Abcam), followed by secondary antibodies such as AlexaFluor488 or AlexaFluor555 conjugated goat or donkey anti-mouse or anti-rabbit (ThermoFisher Scientific). Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst33342 (Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan) and assessed using confocal microscope (FLUOVIEW FV10i; Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

Protein Expression Analysis in Lung Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Western blot analysis was employed to detect the protein expression level of TGF-β1, CTGF, and α-SMA in lung tissue, and collagen type III, α-SMA, and AdipoR1/R2 in human lung WI-38 fibroblasts. Whole lung tissue homogenate or WI-38 lung fibroblasts lysates were prepared via lysis buffer [TianGen Biotech (Beijing) Co., Ltd.]. The lung tissue homogenate or cell lysates were separated by electrophoresis on 10% SDS-PAGE. Gels were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked in 5% nonfat dry milk diluted in Tris-buffered saline. Blots were incubated overnight with anti-TGF-β1, anti-CTGF, anti-α-SMA, anti-collagen type III, anti-AdipoR1, or anti-AdipoR2 antibodies (all from Abcam), at 4°C. Washed blots were incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes with a secondary biotinylated antibody (Zhongshan Golden Bridge Bio-technology, Beijing). After three 10 minute washings with TBST, membranes were analyzed by Western (Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., Hercules, CA). Sample loadings were normalized by Western blot analysis with anti-GAPDH (Abcam).

HK-2 cells were cultured in six-well plates. Two wells were treated as one treatment group and divided into three groups (n=2 wells): control + PBS group, H/R + PBS group, and H/R + Se@SiO2 group. HK-2 cells and renal tissue from the outer medulla area were lysed and denatured at 100°C for 5 minutes in SDS buffer and separated by 10% PAGE. Proteins were then transferred onto 0.45-µm polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), blocked for 1 hour with 5% dried nonfat skimmed milk powder in TBS-Tween-20 (TBS containing 0.1% Tween 20), and probed with appropriate antibodies. The following primary antibodies were used: monoclonal rabbit antibodies anti-phospho-NF-κB (1:1,000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology), anti-NLRP3 (1:1,000 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology), anti-collagen type I, anti-collagen type III (1:1,000 dilution; Abcam), anti-NGAL (1:1,000 dilution; Abcam), and caspase-1 (1:1,000 dilution; Proteintech, Wuhan, China) and monoclonal rabbit antibodies anti-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and anti-β-actin (1:2,000 dilution; Proteintech). Positive protein binding was visualized by a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody followed by the use of an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (New Cell Molecular Biotech, Suzhou, China).

Preparation of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections was performed by following a previously described procedure2 (link). We performed mIHC following a manufacturer’s protocol for Opal 7-color manual IHC kit (Akoya Bioscience) with additional steps to reduce autofluorescence2 (link). The antibodies used for mIHC were anti-CD45 (clone GA751 from DAKO), anti-CD34 (clone IS632, DAKO), anti-type-III collagen (Abcam), anti-ASS1 (ThermoFisher), and anti-cytokeratins (clone AE1/AE3, Santa Cruz Biotechnology). The Opal fluorescence dye used for each marker was Opal690 (CD45), Opal620 (CD34), Opal570 (ASS1), Opal 540 (AE1/AE3), and Opal520 (type-III collagen). Slides stained for mIHC were scanned using multispectral imaging microscope (Vectra 3.0), and unmixed multispectral images were performed using inForm ver. 2.4.8. Tissue segmentation, cell segmentation, and phenotyping were performed as described previously3 (link). Unmixed images were converted to multilayered-tag image file format (TIFF) files for further analysis. The tissues stained for mIHC were re-used for PAS staining (StatLab). PAS-stained tissue sections were scanned using Aperio ImageScope (Leica Biosystems), and digital images were viewed using the ImageScope application (Leica Biosystems).

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.
