Mice were euthanized and perfused with intracardial injection of 4% (w/v) paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Brains were isolated and post-fixed overnight with 4% (w/v) paraformaldehyde at 4 °C. After cryoprotection with 30% sucrose in PBS for 72 h at 4 °C, 40-μm brain slices were collected through a sliding microtome (Leica). For immunostaining, brain sections were treated with 50% formamide in 1 X SSC buffer for 2 h at 65 °C. For BrdU staining, the sections were pretreated with 2N HCl for 30 min at 37 °C. The following primary antibodies were used: GFP (Chicken; 1:2,000; Aves Labs), mCherry (Goat; 1:2,000; Mybiosource), NeuN (Rabbit; 1:10,000; Abcam), GFAP (Mouse; 1:2,000; Sigma), Cre (Rabbit; 1:500; Covance), ALDH1L1 (Mouse; 1:200; Neuromab), ALDOC (Goat; 1:100; Santa Cruz), BrdU (Rat; 1:500; Bio-Rad), NEUROD1 (Rabbit; 1:1,000; Abcam), PTBP1 (Rabbit, 1:1,000, ABclonal), FLAG (Rabbit; 1:300; Sigma), HA (Chicken; 1:300; Aves), DCX (Goat; 1:500; Santa Cruz), and MAP2 (Mouse; 1:1,000; Proteintech).

Fresh-frozen xenograft samples were lysed in RIPA buffer using a TissueLyzer II (Qiagen) homogenizer. SDS-PAGE was performed by standard methods, and PVDF membranes were probed with the following antibodies: from Cell Signaling Technology: alpha-tubulin, beta-actin, NeuroD1, total EGFR, pAKT (S473), pERK1/2 (T202/Y204); from Abcam: Ascl1 (MASH1); from Santa Cruz Biotechnology: Slfn11. Membranes were imaged with a Syngene G:BOX, and band densitometry was performed using Syngene GeneSys software. Ratio to loading control (alpha-tubulin) was calculated, and lysates from established SCLC cell lines (CORL88, CORL279, NCIH82, NCIH1048, and DMS273) were used as interblot standards. Cell lines were obtained between 2015 and 2017 from the MGH Center for Molecular Therapeutics, which performs routine authentication by single-nucleotide polymorphism and short tandem repeat analyses, and were passaged in HITES media + 2% FBS for less than 3 months prior to lysate preparation.

Immunohistochemical Subtyping for SCLC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All cases were stained for ASCL1 (clone: 24B72D11.1; BD Biosciences), NEUROD1 (clone: EPR17084; Abcam), and POU2F3 (clone: polyclonal; Atlas Antibodies) for subtyping. The nuclear expression of each marker was semiquantitatively recorded for percentage of positive cells (0%–100%) and intensity of staining (0 = no stain, 1 = weak, 2 = moderate, 3 = strong). A combination H score (range 0–300) was calculated as previously described: H score = (0 × % negative) + (1 × % weakly positive) + (2 × % moderately positive) + (3 × % strongly positive cells).20 (link) Marker with H score less than 50 was interpreted as negative, as previously suggested.9 (link) Each slide was scored by two pathologists independently. Average scores were calculated and recorded for analysis. Cases with substantial discrepancy leading to subtype difference were re-reviewed by both pathologists together until consensus was reached.

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.
