Anti lectin

Manufactured by Vector Laboratories
Sourced in United States

Anti-Lectin is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and quantification of lectins in various biological samples. Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that play important roles in various biological processes. Anti-Lectin is a specific antibody that binds to lectins, allowing for their identification and measurement using techniques such as ELISA or immunoblotting.

Mice were anesthetized and immediately perfused with PBS and 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) as previously described [32 (link)]. The brain was post-fixed in 4% PFA overnight and transferred to 30% sucrose in PBS. 50 μm thick sections were prepared by vibratome. Then, the brain sections were incubated with primary antibodies as following: anti-Caspase-1 (1:500, AdipoGen, CA, USA), anti-NeuN (1:300, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-Lectin (1:300, DL-1177, Vector Laboratories, USA), anti-Nitrotyrosine (1:1000, Millipore, CA, USA) for overnight at 4 °C. After being rinsed three times, the sections were incubated with appropriate fluorescent secondary antibodies (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) for 2 h at room temperature. Finally, the sections were stained with DAPI (0.5 μg/ml) for 5 min and mounted in Vectashield medium (Vector Laboratories, CA). Immunofluorescence images were performed with a Zeiss LSM800 confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss, Germany). The 3D surface visualization of grayscale intensity was plotted through ImageJ v1.50H and its “Interactive 3D Surface Plot” plug-in.

Eyes were removed and fixed for 24 h with 4% PFA, at room temperature. Retinas were prepared as flattened whole mounts, by making four radial cuts, and labeled with anti-lectin (20 μg/mL) (Vector Laboratories, USA) and anti-phalloidin (1:100) (Biotium, USA) antibodies. Retinas were permeabilized by washing in PBST for 30 min, then, washed them in PBS 3 times for 10 min and, finally, anti-lectin was applied at 4 °C overnight. The following day, they were washed in PBS 3 times for 5 min and incubated in anti-phalloidin at 4 °C overnight. Retinas were mounted with an anti-fade reagent containing Hoechst-33258 to label nuclei (Molecular Probes, USA). Twenty micrometer-thick sagittal sections were assessed for potential anatomical alterations. Finally, whole-mount retinas and sagittal sections were imaged using a light microscope (× 400, Eclipse E600, Nikon Instruments Inc., Japan) equipped with a manually controlled specimen stage for X, Y, and Z axis, a color camera (model DXM1200, Nikon Instruments Inc., Japan), a fluorescent light source (HB-10104AF, Nikon Instruments Inc., Japan), and the image analysis software (NIS-Elements, Version 3.22, Nikon Instruments Inc., Japan).

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.
