For simultaneous visualization of both tracers, one series of brain tissue (n = 4) underwent fluorescent double-label immunohistochemical processing. Tissue was rinsed from the cryoprotectant storage solution with several washes in KPBS, and then incubated for 72 h at 4 °C in a blocking solution [KPBS containing 0.3 % Triton X-100, 2 % normal donkey serum (017-000-001; Jackson ImmunoRe-search, West Grove, PA, USA)], with both primary antibodies: anti-FG (1:10,000) and anti-CTB (1:5000). After rinses in KPBS, tissue was incubated for 1 h in the dark in the blocking solution containing the secondary antibodies: Alexa 488 anti-rabbit (1:200; A21206; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and Alexa 546 anti-goat (1:200; A11056; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA), both raised in donkey serum. Following rinses in KPBS, tissue was mounted in semidarkness onto slides (SuperFrost Plus), dried, coverslipped with Vectashield HardSet Mounting Medium with DAPI (H-1500; Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA, USA), and stored at 4 °C until analysis.

Immediately following slicing, sections were incubated for 72 h at 4°C in a blocking solution [KPBS containing 0.3 % Triton X-100, 2 % normal donkey serum (017-000-001; Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA)], with the primary antibody: anti-c-Fos antibody raised in rabbit (1:10,000; Millipore, Billerica, MA). After rinses in KPBS, tissue was incubated for 1 h in the dark in the blocking solution containing the secondary antibody: anti-rabbit Alexa 488 (1:200; A21206; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Following rinses in KPBS, in semidarkness tissue was mounted onto slides (SuperFrost Plus), dried, coverslipped with Vectashield HardSet Mounting Medium with DAPI (H-1500; Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA, USA), and stored at 4°C until analysis.

Immediately following slicing, sections were incubated for 72 h at 4 C in a blocking solution [KPBS containing 0.3% Triton X-100, 2% normal donkey serum (017-000-121; Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA)], with the primary antibody: c-Fos goat primary (1:2,000; sc-52-G; Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX). After rinses in KPBS, tissue was incubated for 1 h in the dark in the blocking solution containing the secondary antibody: Alexa 546 anti-goat (1:200; A11056; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Following rinses in KPBS, in semidarkness tissue was mounted onto slides (SuperFrost Plus), dried, coverslipped with Vectashield HardSet Mounting Medium with DAPI (H-1500; Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA, USA), and stored at 4 C until analysis. This immunohistochemistry procedure was successfully repeated 8 times in the current study, and has been used successfully numerous additional times within our laboratory.

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.
