Liver tissues were fixed in 4% neutral buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. The paraffin sections were deparaffinized by baking and then dehydrated using xylene and ethanol. After blocking with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 h, the sections were incubated with anti-CD11b (1:100, BD Biosciences, USA), anti-Ly6G (1:100; BD Biosciences), anti-H3cit (1:400; CST, USA), anti-MPO (1:100; Abcam, UK), and anti-N-WASP (1:100; Abcam) antibodies overnight at 4°C. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 25 min at room temperature and then permeabilized with 0.2% Triton X-100 in PBS for 10 min. The cells were blocked in PBS with 2% BSA for 30 min at room temperature and then incubated with anti-H3Cit (1:400; CST), anti-N-WASP (1:100; Abcam), or anti-MPO (1:100; Abcam) antibodies overnight at 4°C. The sections and cells were then incubated with the indicated Alexa Fluor-conjugated secondary antibodies. DAPI was used to detect nuclei. Between all steps, samples were washed three times in PBS for 5 min each. The sections were visualized using an LSM 800 laser scanning confocal microscope (Zeiss, Germany).

Histopathological Analysis of Lung Inflammation

Lung samples were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin and cut into 5-μm-thick sections. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was used to observe pathological alterations. Inflammatory cell infiltration, including macrophages and neutrophils, was determined with anti-CD68 (Abcam, USA) and anti-MPO (Abcam, USA) immunohistochemical staining, respectively. To show the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), lung sections were incubated with primary antibody against TLR4 (Abcam, USA). Endogenous peroxides were blocked with 3% H2O2, and antigen retrieval was performed by microwave heating post deparaffination and rehydration. Sections were incubated with the primary antibody (1:200) after blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 30 min. Then, the specimens were stained using a Strept Avidin–Biotin Complex (SABC) kit (Beyotime, China) according to the instructions. Stained sections were photographed using an Olympus inverted microscope (Olympus Imaging America, Center Valley, PA). The percentage of CD68- or MPO-positive cells per field was calculated based on 6–8 random fields.

The cells were lysed using RIPA buffer containing a protease inhibitor cocktail. The cell lysates were used immediately. Samples were electrophoresed under reducing conditions through 4–12% BisTris NuPage acrylamide gels (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). After electrophoresis, the gels were either stained using Coomassie blue, or transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane and immunoblotted with appropriate antibodies. An Odyssey infrared imaging system (Li-Cor Biosciences, Lincoln, NE) was used for signal detection, which allowed us to simultaneously image MPO with rabbit polyclonal anti-MPO (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) and protein radicals with anti-DMPO antibody.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed on tumor, intestinal and spleen tissues to quantify changes in immune cells (CD4 + T, CD8 + T, MPO-positive neutrophils, and F4/80-positive macrophages). The sections were then deparaffinized and rehydrated. Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked with 3 % hydrogen peroxide for 30 min at room temperature. Nonspecific binding was reduced by incubation with 10 % normal goat serum for 30 min. The sections were then incubated with rabbit antibody anti-CD4 (CST, Massachusetts, Cat. 25229, 1:125 dilution), anti-CD8 (Abcam, Cambridge, Cat. ab209775, 1:100 dilution), anti-MPO (Abcam, Cambridge, Cat. ab208670, 1:2000 dilution), or anti-F4/80 (CST, Massachusetts, Cat. 70076; 1:500 dilution) overnight at 4 °C. This was followed by a 45-min incubation with secondary antibodies. Immunoreactivity was revealed using the diaminobenzidine chromogen reaction. The detailed information on primary and secondary antibodies used for IHC staining is summarized in the Supplementary TableA2.
The IHC sections were scanned using a KF-PRO-020 whole slide scanner (KFBIO, Ningbo, China) and then analyzed using the HALO image analysis platform (Indica Labs, Albuquerque, NM, USA), as described in our previous publication [4] (link).

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.
