Retinal dissection was performed following established protocols in the Frankfort lab (Frankfort et al., 2013 (link); Tao et al., 2020b (link)). Dissected whole-mount retinas were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 1 h at room temperature and blocked with 10% donkey serum overnight. Retinas were then incubated in primary antibodies [Collagen IV (EMD Millipore cat#AB756p; 1:300), CD31 (BD bioscience cat#550274; 1:50), and RBPMS (Phospho solutions cat#1832; 1:250)] diluted with 3% donkey serum for 5 days at 4°C, followed by overnight incubation at 4°C in secondary antibodies [Alexa fluor 647 donkey anti-rabbit (Jackson Immuno Research Labs cat# 711-605-152; 1:300), Cy3 donkey anti-rat (Jackson Immuno Research Labs cat#712-165-153; 1:300), Alexa fluor 488 donkey anti-guinea pig (Jackson Immuno Research Labs cat#706-545-148; 1:300), and Hoechst 33,342 nuclear staining (Invitrogen cat#H3570; 1:1,000)] diluted with 3% donkey serum.

Distal esophageal biopsies were fixed with 10% formalin and embedded in
paraffin (FFPE). FFPE samples were sectioned and de-paraffinized using xylene
and then subjected to graded ethanol washes. Heat-induced epitope retrieval in
R-UNIVERSAL Epitope Recovery Buffer (EMS, 62719–20) was performed. Slides
were blocked in PBS with 10% donkey serum for 1 hour followed by overnight
incubation at 4°C in the following primary antibodies: mouse anti-human
tryptase (Biolegend, 369402), rabbit anti-human KI-67 (Invitrogen, PA-19462), or
rat anti-human IL-13 (Biolegend, 501902). Slides were then washed, incubated for
1.5 hours at room temperature with Hoechst 33342 nuclear staining (Invitrogen,
H3570) and the following secondary antibodies: donkey anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 647
(Jackson, 715605151), donkey anti-rat Alexa Fluor 488 (Invitrogen, A21208), or
donkey-anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 (Jackson, 711545152). Then slides were washed
and mounted with ProLong gold antifade reagent (Invitrogen,
P10144). Images were obtained using the NIKON A1 inverted LUNV confocal
microscope. Quantifying confocal sections were carried out with Imaris and
Elements software.

Hoechst Nuclear Staining for Cytotoxicity Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hoechst 33,342 nuclear staining (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) was used to detect the nuclear changes. In total, 5000 cells/well were seeded in a 96-well black plate for 24 h at 37 °C and 5% CO2. After this period, EcTI (25, 50, and 100 µM) was added to each well and incubated for another 24 h, washed thoroughly with PBS, and incubated for 10 min with Hoechst staining solution (2 µg/mL, diluted in PBS, 100 µL/well). Nuclear staining was observed with an inverted fluorescence microscope (Leica) using a 10× objective lens and a set of blue filter cubes (excitation: 394–410 and emission: 435–485). The nuclear area (µm2) was measured using ImageJ software, using the Make Binary Tool and Measure. The percentages of the nuclear area were calculated using the control group compared to the EcTI treatment groups [39 (link)].

Immunocytochemical Analysis of SUM-159 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SUM-159 cells plated on coverslip chambers (Thermo Fisher, Cat. # 155379) were fused at their corresponding time points, fixed with 4% PFA (EMS), and then permeabilized and blocked with blocking solution (0.5% Triton X-100, 10% BSA in PBS) for 1 h. Primary antibodies were diluted in blocking solution and incubated overnight at 4 °C. After 3 washes (10 min) with PBS, cells were incubated with Alexa Fluor-conjugated secondary antibodies. The following primary antibodies were used: Anti-Yap1 (Cell Signaling 14074S, 1:250), Anti-p21 (Cell Signaling, Cat. # 2947S, 1:200), Anti-pH3 (anti-Phospho-Histone H3 (Ser10); Cell Signaling, Cat. # 3377, 1:200), Anti-clathrin heavy chain (Abcam, Cat. # ab21679, 1:200), Anti-AP-2 (Abcam, Cat. # ab189995, 1:200), Anti-Glut1 (Abcam, Cat. # ab40084, 1:100), Anti-CD98 (BioLegend, Cat. # 315602, 1:200) and Anti-CD147 (BioLegend, Cat. # 306202, 1:200). For imaging and quantification, at least a total of 15 fields of view were randomly chosen by Hoechst 33342 nuclear staining (Thermo Fisher, Cat. # 62249) and imaged by Zeiss LSM880 confocal or NIKON TIRF microscope. At least three different samples were quantified per treatment type at each respective time point.

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.
