Goat antimouse alexa fluor 488 labeled secondary antibody

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The Goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488-labeled secondary antibody is a fluorescent-conjugated secondary antibody used in immunoassays and other applications. It binds to mouse primary antibodies and fluoresces at the Alexa Fluor 488 wavelength, allowing for detection and visualization of target proteins or molecules.

For TUNEL and CD31 staining in striatum, the brain cryosections (slice thickness 20 μm) were prepared, as previously described (Yang et al., 2012 (link)). Briefly, rats were intracardially perfused with saline, followed by 4% PFA perfusion. Then, the brains were immersed in 30% sucrose solution. After dehydration, the brains were embedded in Tissue-TEK OCT Compound (Sakura, United States) and sectioned using freezing microtome (Leica, CM1950). TUNEL staining was performed in accordance with the instructions in the TUNEL Detection Kit (Cat#: PF00009, Proteintech, United States). Mouse antirat CD31 antibody (1:1,000, ab64543, Abcam) and goat antimouse Alexa Fluor 488-labeled secondary antibody (1:1,000; Cat# A11001, Thermo Fisher Scientific) were successively incubated. Then, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining was performed for 20 min and the nucleus was observed under a fluorescence microscope (Olympus BX51, Japan) and the TUNEL/CD31 double-positive cells were counted from ten different fields in each group using Image J software (Maryland, United States).
For cell apoptosis detection, TUNEL Detection Kit (Cat#: PF00006, Proteintech, United States) was used. The TUNEL+ cell percentage was calculated by TUNEL+ cell number divided by total cell number per field.

Visualizing Succinate Receptor GPR91 on NSCs

To visualize the distribution of succinate receptor GPR91 on primary NSCs (that stain positive for nestin), we performed dual immunofluorescence staining. Briefly, primary NSCs were seeded on a coverslip and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. The coverslip was washed with phosphate-buffered saline, and the slides were treated with phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.1% Triton X-100 and 5% bovine serum albumin (Cat# VIC018, Vicmed, Xuzhou, China) for 1 hour. The slides were incubated with the following primary antibodies at 4°C overnight: rabbit anti-GPR91 polyclonal antibody (1:1000; Cat# 223051, United States Biological, Salem, MA, USA) and mouse anti-nestin monoclonal antibody (1:1000; Cat# NBP1-92717, RRID: AB_11020601, Novus Biologicals, Littleton, CO, USA). Then, the slides were incubated with goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 488-labeled secondary antibody (1:1000; Cat# A11001, RRID: AB_2534069, Thermo Fisher Scientific) or goat anti-rabbit Cy3-labelled secondary antibody (1:1000; Cat# AS007, RRID: AB_2769089, ABclonal, Woburn, MA, USA) at room temperature for 1 hour. Representative images were obtained using a laser-scanning confocal microscope (TCS SP5, Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). We used 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (10 mg/mL; Cat# KGA215-10, KeyGen BioTECH) to label cell nuclei.

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.
