TEM was performed to investigate the ultrastructural changes of A. fumigatus biofilm after exposure to CRA. In brief, 4 ml A. fumigatus suspension (4×105 conidia) was added to a 25 mm2 cell culture flask with a vented cap, followed by adhesion for 4 h. Subsequently, the supernatant containing non-adherent cells was removed, followed by incubation at 37°C for 24 h after adding fresh RPMI-1640 medium. For the CRA treatment group, CRA was added to fresh RPMI-1640 medium added after 4 h of adhesion. Biofilms were washed in PBS and fixed in a solution of 2.5% glutaraldehyde (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and 4% formaldehyde (Biosharp, Hefei, China) in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate buffer (pH 7.2, Sigma-Aldrich; Merck Millipore). Subsequently, the mixture was fixed for 2 h in the same buffer containing 1% osmium tetroxide (pH 7.2, Sigma-Aldrich, Merck Millipore), and then embedded in Spurr's resin (Polysciences, Warrington, USA). Ultrathin sections were stained with 4% uranyl acetate (Polysciences) and 2.6% lead citrate (Polysciences). Finally, the images were observed under a Hitachi 7650 TEM (Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan) at 80 kV.

After treatment and subsequent memory evaluation, the rats were randomly selected to be anesthetized with chloral hydrate (300 mg/kg, i.p.) and then perfused transcardially with normal saline followed by ~200 ml 2% paraformaldehyde and 2.5% glutaraldehyde (Tianjin Yongda Chemical Reagent Development Centre, Tianjin, China) to pre-fix the brain tissue. The brains were removed and fixed in 3% glutaraldehyde. The neuron ultrastructure in the hippocampal CA1 region was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) according to a previously described method with certain modifications (23 (link)). In brief, the hippocampal CA1 area of the rats was rapidly excised, and then cut into pieces of 1 mm × 1 mm × 2 mm. The pieces were fixed in 3% glutaraldehyde for 2 h and post-fixed in 1% osmic acid (Beijing Zhongjingkeyi Technology Co., Ltd., Beijing, China) for 1.5 h. After that, the pieces were de-hydration-fixed by conventional ethanol and acetone treatments, embedded in ethoxyline resin 618 (Beijing Zhongjingkeyi Technology Co., Ltd.) and sliced using an ultra-thin slicer (UC7; Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany). Finally, the slices were double-stained with uranyl acetate (Beijing Zhongjingkeyi Technology Co., Ltd.) and lead citrate (Beijing Zhongjingkeyi Technology Co., Ltd.), and observed and filmed under a Hitachi-7650 TEM (Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan).

The lower lobes of the right lung were cut into 1-2 mm cubes and fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde at 4°C immediately in the sealed container, and a syringe was used to empty the gas in the lung tissue. After sinking to the bottom, the lung specimens were then treated with osmium tetroxide and dehydrated in serial concentrations of ethanol. The tissues were treated with propylene oxide again, and then with a propylene oxide/epoxy resin mixture. Finally, they were embedded in labeled capsules with freshly prepared resin by Epon812. Sections were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate and observed under a Hitachi-7650 TEM (Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan) at 10000 to 20000x magnifications.

For TEM, the cochlear explants were cultured on polyethylene terephthalate membranes (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Samples were collected at various time-points (without transfection, and 0, 24 and 48 h post-transfection) and fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde (Sigma-Aldrich) in PBS at 4˚C for 6 h, followed by 1% osmium tetroxide (Sigma-Aldrich) at 4˚C for 1 hour, dehydration, infiltration and polymerization in araldite. Ultrathin sections (80-100 nm) were post-stained with uranyl acetate (Sigma-Aldrich) for 30 min in the dark and lead citrate (Sigma-Aldrich) for 6 min. The sections were then examined using a Hitachi-7650 TEM (Hitachi, Ltd, Tokyo, Japan). In all TEM experiments, 2 µg pDNA and 14 µg L-PEI was used.

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.
