Brains were then subjected to deep-tissue TH immunolabeling by staining with TH antibody (dilution 1:100, Merck Millipore) in PBS/0.3% Triton for 3 days, 1 day of washing followed by incubation with anti-rabbit Alexa 488 for 3 days (Jackson Immunoresearch).
Finally, brains were observed by a two-photon upright LSM 880 Zeiss microscope equipped by W Plan-Apochromat 20x/1.0 DIC (UV) VIS-IR M27 75 mm objective. The fluorochrome was excited with the IR laser set at 860 nm. Z-stack were set with the height of the sections scanning = ~1 μm. Images were then reconstructed using Zen lite 2.3 (Carl Zeiss).

Next, coverslips were washed with 1×PBS (three times, 5 min each) at RT and incubated with secondary donkey anti-rabbit Alexa488 (1:200, #711-545-152 Jackson ImmunoResearch) and goat anti-guinea pig Alexa488 (1:200, # A11073 Invitrogen) antibodies for 1 h at 37 °C. For colocalization with Topo IIα, CENH3 was labeled with Cy3-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (Dianova). Subsequently, coverslips were washed in 1×PBS (three times, 5 min each) at RT and immediately dehydrated in an ethanol series (70%, 85%, and 100%), each step 2 min. Afterward, the coverslips were air-dried and subjected to microscopy.

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.
