Vibratome sections (100 μm thick) from virus-injected animals were immunolabeled with antibodies against mCherry, which was expressed from the virus, as well as antibodies against the mossy fiber marker, ZnT3. CellProfiler (Version 2.1.0) software was used to quantify the degree of overlap between mCherry and ZnT3. The average amount of overlap was 70%.
Primary antibodies: rat BrdU (AbD Serotec, MCA2060GA, 1:500), rabbit GFP (Invitrogen, A11122, 1:300), rabbit Complexin-1 (Proteintech, 10246–2–AP, 1:300), mouse GFAP (G6171, 1:500), mouse Nsf-1 (MA1–12435, 1:300) and rabbit Syn3 (OSS00018W, 1:300) from Thermo Scientific, guinea pig Iba1 (234 004, 1:500), mouse Syt1 (105 011, 1:300), guinea pig ZnT3 (197 004, 1:1000) from Synaptic Systems.
Secondary antibodies. Antibodies (all obtained from Jackson Laboratory, donkey anti-guinea pig IgG (H+L) ML, #706-225-148 and 706-175-148; donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L) ML, #715-225-151, 715-165-151, and 715-175-151; donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) ML, #711-225-152, 711-165-152, and 711-175-152 were diluted 1:400. Confocal scans were carried out using a LSM 510 Imager Z.1 microscope (Zeiss) using Plan-Apochromat 63X/1.4 and EC Plan-Neofluar 40X/1.30 oil immersion objective lenses and four excitation laser lines. Tile scans were performed using a LSM 710 confocal microscope (Zeiss) with a Plan-Apochromat 20X/0.8 objective.

Western Blot Analysis of Synaptic Proteins

Protein was transferred to Immobilion PVDF transfer membrane (Millipore) in transfer buffer (25 mM Tris, 192 mM glycine, 20% (v/v) methanol) for 1 hr at 100 V constant, 350 mA. The membrane was blocked for at least 1 h in 5% (wt/vol) non-fat dry milk in Tris-buffered saline (25 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM KCl, pH 8.0, 15 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris, pH 8.0). Primary rabbit Complexin-1 (Proteintech, 10246–2–AP), mouse Nsf-1 (MA1–12435) and rabbit Syn3 (OSS00018W, 1:300) from Thermo Scientific, mouse Syt1 (Synaptic Systems, 105 011, mouse β-actin (Sigma Aldrich, A5316) were added 1:2,000 in blocking solution and incubated for 2–3 days on a shaker at 4 °C. The membrane was washed 3× for 30 min in Tris-buffered saline and incubated with secondary antibody (1:10,000, Li-Cor: IRDye 680 RD donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L), #925-68072; IRDye 680RD donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H+L), #925-68073; IRDye 800CW donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L), #925-32212; IRDye 800 CW donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H+L), #925-32213. Detection was performed using an Odyssey machine (Li-Cor). Image Studio 2.0 software was used for image analysis. The membrane was stripped with NewBlot PVDF 5x stripping buffer (Li-Cor) according to manufacturer’s protocol. We normalized and corrected for uneven loading using the intensity of the internal control band, beta-Actin.

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.
