Neural Sphere Preparation and Cryosectioning

Other spheres were dissociated and reseeded at low density, 2.5 × 104/mL, to form aggregate spheres or reaggregated by seeding at high density, 2.5 × 106/mL, to form reaggregated spheres. Spheres were selected based on size, < 200 μm, 200–500 μm or > 500 μm, placed in a 5mL round-bottom polystyrene test tube (Falcon) and similarly fixed, equilibrated in 30% sucrose, and embedded in Tissue-Tek. Gentle removal of each solution leaving the neurospheres to settle onto the bottom of the tube during each equilibration step ensured neurospheres were not damaged during processing. Neurospheres were cryosectioned at a thickness of 8 μm before being mounted onto slides coated with 0.5% w/v gelatin in 0.05% w/v chromium potassium sulfate (Sigma) for immunostaining.

To address the PTEN deletion following AAV-Cre injection, free-flating coronal sections through the brain were incubated in 1% hydrogen peroxide for 15 min. After blocking in Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA) blocking buffer (0.5g blocking reagent/ 40ml TBS, PerkinElmer, FP1012) sections were incubated in primary antibody at RT overnight (rabbit anti-PTEN, Cell Signaling 9188S, 1:250). Sections were washed in TBS and incubated with secondary antibody (donkey anti-rabbit HRP, Jackson Immunolabs 711-065-152, 1:250) in TSA blocking buffer for 2 hours at RT. Following a wash in TBS, sections were stained with 3–3′ diaminobenzidine (DAB, Vector Labs SK-4100) for 5 min, rinsed in TBS, mounted on gelatin subbed slides in weak mounting solution (0.5% gelatin and 0.05% chromium potassium sulfate, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), air-dried and cover-slipped with DPX mounting medium.

Tissue Preparation for Myelin and Nissl Staining

In brief, every 10th section of the lesion site was mounted onto slides (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA) coated with chrom-alum and poly-L-lysine layers (chromium potassium sulfate and poly-L-lysine, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO; gelatin, Fisher Scientific). Tissue was fume fixed on the slides with 4% paraformaldehyde to enhance adherence. Tissue was first dipped in dH2O, and then dehydrated in increasing increments of alcohol (70%, 95%,100%). After immersing in xylene (10 minutes), tissue was rehydrated in decreasing increments of alcohol, then water and placed in an aqueous myelin dye (Eriochrome Cyanine R; Fluka, St. Louis, MO) for 10 minutes. After washing in water, differentiation took place in 1% ammonium hydroxide (1 minute). Tissue was then placed in 0.5% cresyl violet (cresyl violet with acetate, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) for 3 minutes, washed thoroughly in water, immersed in 70% alcohol, and then differentiated using < .2% glacial acetic acid in 95% alcohol. Following this, tissue was dehydrated again in increasing increments of alcohol, immersed in xylene and coverslipped with DPX (Fluka, St. Louis, MO).

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.
