Cryo-sections from frozen livers were generated using a 1720 Cryostat (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany). Section were fixed in 4% buffered formalin for 10 min. Rinsed 3x in dH2O, before staining in 0.7% (w/v) Oil Red O (Sigma) in propylene glycol for 10 min, rinsed 3x dH2O, and stained with hematoxylin (Thermo Fisher Scientific. Waltham. MA. USA) for 2 min. Finally, sections were rinsed 3x dH2O and mounted with ImmuMount (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Images were captured using an Olympus BX51 light microscope at 40x magnification with an Olympus DP25 digital color camera (Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Three images were captured from each animal by a blinded investigator.

Cryo-sections from frozen liver samples were generated using a 1720 Cryostat (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany) from 3 to 4 mice per group. The cry-sections were fixed in 4% buffered formalin for 10 min, rinsed 3× in dH2O, and stained in 0.7% (w/v) Oil Red O (Sigma) in propylene glycol for 10 min, rinsed 3× dH2O, and stained with hematoxylin (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for 2 min. Finally, sections were rinsed 3× dH2O and mounted with ImmuMount (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Images were captured using an Olympus BX51 light microscope at 40× magnification with an Olympus DP25 digital colour camera (Olympus Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Three images per section were captured by a blinded investigator, and representative images were selected.

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.
