Protein was extracted as recently described (Zwischenberger et al., 2020). Protein isolates (5–10 μg) were resolved by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (Bio-Rad Mini PROTEAN Tetra system) using TGX stain-free gradient (4–15%) gels, total protein was visualized using stain-free technology (ChemiDoc MP imaging system), and proteins were electrophoretically transferred (Bio-Rad Trans-blot Turbo Transfer System) to polyvinylidenedifluoride (pvdf) membranes. The membranes were blocked for 1 hr in 3% non-fat dry milk at room temperature, and incubated in primary antibody in 1% non-fat dry milk overnight at 4°C. HRP-linked secondary antibody incubation (Santa Cruz #SC-2004, 1:10,000 dilution) was conducted for 1 hr at room temperature, and the reaction was detected by chemiluminescence (Bio-Rad Clarity Western ECL Substrate). Primary antibodies were as follows: anti-PAI-1 antibody (Abcam ab182973, 1:5,000), anti-CD45 (Abcam, ab10558, 1:1,000), anti-CD11b (Abcam ab133357, 1:1,000), anti-CD3 (Abcam ab16669, 1:500), anti-CD31 (Invitrogen PA5-16301, 1:500), anti-CD34 (Invitrogen PA5-89536, 1:500). Densitometry analysis was performed on the resulting blots using Image Lab software, and normalized by total protein analysis.

Samples of the scaffolds were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 h and stored at 4 °C in 70% ethanol, dehydrated, and embedded in Paraplast (Leica Biosystems). For morphological analysis, 5 μm sections were stained with Hematoxylin–Eosin (H&E) and Masson’s trichrome. Stained tissue sections were scanned at × 40 equivalent resolution using a slide scanner Aperio Versa (Leica Biosystems) and images were captured with Aperio ImageScope 12.4.6 software. Immunohistochemistry was performed according to previously published protocols69 using rabbit polyclonal anti-CD31 (PA5-16301 Invitrogen), 1:50 dilution; rabbit polyclonal anti-α-SMA (ab5694 Abcam), 1:1000 dilution; rabbit monoclonal anti-ki67 (MA5-14520 Invitrogen), 1:50 dilution. Bacterial visualization was performed using rabbit polyclonal anti-Pseudomonas (Abcam ab68538), 1:1000 dilution; rabbit polyclonal anti-Staphylococcus (Abcam ab20920), 1:1000 dilution; and rabbit polyclonal anti-Enterococcus (Abcam ab19980), 1:1000 dilution.

Phalloidin and DAPI staining were used for actin and nuclei visualization, respectively. Images were acquired with a confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss 710) using the image acquisition program Zen (Carl Zeiss). Images were processed and analyzed using ImageJ software (NIH).

Immunohistochemical Characterization of Tissue Samples

Wax sections were de-waxed in a series of xylene, graded xylene/ethanol mixture, graded ethanol mixture, and finally incubation in PBS. The sections were stained with HE and Masson’s trichrome. Cryosections were mounted on silane-coated slides, air dried, and blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) + 0.2% Triton X-100 in PBS if needed. Sections were then left to incubate with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C, or 4 h at room temperature before overnight incubation at 4 °C. The primary antibody used was rabbit anti-laminin (1:200, L9393, Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA), rabbit anti-CD31 (1:50, PA5-16301, Thermo Fisher Scientific), rabbit anti-Phospho-ERK1/ERK2 (1:50, 44-680G, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), and rabbit anti-GluR1 (SD2010) (1:100, MA5-32344, Thermo Fisher Scientific). The secondary antibody for fluorescent photography was CF™ 488 goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) used (1:400, SAB4600045, Sigma). Primary antibody omission controls were used for all immunostaining protocols to control nonspecific binding. Fluorescent was performed with a Zeiss Axioscope microscope equipped with charge-coupled device (CCD) camera with appropriate filter sets.

Western blotting was carried out as previously described (8 (link)). Briefly, mTiD/PLiD lysates were prepared and quantified by using Bio-Rad protein assay kit (Thermo Scientific., Chicago, IL). Cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and blotted onto PVDF membrane (EMD Millipore, Danvers, MA), blocked and incubated with primary antibodies (mouse anti-E-cadherin (610181, BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA ), mouse anti-vimentin (sc-6260, Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX), rabbit anti-CD31 (PA5–16301, ThermoFisher Scientific, Grand Island, NY), rabbit anti-LYVE1 (ab14917, Abcam, Cambridge, MA), mouse anti-surfactant protein (SP-B, ab3282, or SP-D, ab1778 Abcam, Cambridge, MA), rabbit anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA, ab135781, Abcam, Cambridge, MA), a mouse anti-MUC16 (CA125, ab10029, Abcam, Cambridge, MA) and mouse anti-GAPDH (sc-365062, Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX). Then incubated with appropriate sheep anti-mouse secondary antibodies (NA911V, GE healthcare Life sciences, Pittsburgh, PA) or donkey anti-rabbit (NA934V, GE healthcare Life sciences, Pittsburgh, PA) tagged with HRP. Proteins of interest were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence system (RPN2106, GE healthcare Life sciences, Pittsburgh, PA or 34095, ThermoFisher Scientific, Grand Island, NY) and imaged on chemiDoc™ XRS with Image lab software (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA).

Animals were treated with 50 mg/kg EdU i.p. (BCK488-IV-IM-S, baseclick GmbH) 4 h prior to euthanasia. Animals were cardially perfused with 4.5% phosphate-buffered formaldehyde solution (Roti-Histofix 4.5%, 2213, Carl Roth). Tissue was frozen after cryoprotection with 30% sucrose solution and 10 µm cryosections were cut. The sections were permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 20 min. The EdU Click Kit (BCK488-IV-IM-S, baseclick GmbH) was used for EdU detection. After washing, sections were incubated with the reaction cocktail for 30 min as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Afterwards sections were incubated with anti-nestin (1:400, ab6320, Abcam, RRID:AB_308832) and anti-CD31 (1:50; PA5-16301, ThermoFisher Scientific, RRID:AB_10981955) antibodies.Goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 594 (1:400; A-11037, ThermoFisher Scientific, RRID:AB_2534095) and goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 633 (1:400; A-21052, ThermoFisher Scientific, RRID:AB_2535719) secondary antibodies were used. Images were acquired using a Leica TCS SP5 confocal microscope (LAS software version 2.7.3.9723).

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.
