5×106 TdTomato Th9 cells were injected i.v. into WT and CIKS−/− or CCL17+/− and CCL17−/− GFP-reporter mice. 24h later mice were exposed to rIL-25 i.n. (500ng/mouse/day, Biolegend, San Diego CA) for two consecutive days. 24h later mice were given a lethal overdose of avertin and exsanguinated. Lung sections were prepared for live cell imaging as described (42 (link)). Briefly, 1.5% of low-melt agarose inflated tissues were sliced into 300–350 μm sections using Leica VT1000-S-Vibrating-Blade-Microtome (Leica Microsystems, Richmond Hill ON, Canada) on ice-cold PBS. Tissue sections were stained with fluorescently labeled anti-CD31 antibody (eBioscience, San Diego, CA) for 2h on ice. Tissues were imaged using Leica DMi8-inverted-5-channel confocal microscope equipped with an Environmental Chamber (NIH Division of Scientific Equipment and Instrumentation Services) to maintain 37°C and 5% CO2. Post-acquisition mages were processed using Imaris (Bitplane, Concord MA).

Tumors were harvested and fixed with 4% formaldehyde at 4 °C for 24 h. Tissues were then embedded using paraffin and sectioned serially. The slides were dewaxed and stained with H&E for histopathological analysis. For IHC analysis, paraffin sections were deparaffinized, rehydrated, and subjected to antigen retrieval. Slides were then blocked with 10% normal goat serum and incubated with anti-Ki67 (1:500, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti-CD31 antibody (1:100, Thermo Fisher Scientific), PTEN (1:100, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA, USA), or VEGF (1:100, Cell Signaling Technology) at 4 °C overnight, followed by an incubation with biotinylated secondary antibody and streptavidin-HRP.

Isolation and Culture of Mouse Cardiac Endothelial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse CEC were isolated with a modified protocol based on an online resource (http://vrd.bwh.harvard.edu/) and a publication [39 (link)]. Briefly, mouse hearts were dissected and minced into small pieces. After the digestion of the heart using Collagenase I (Worthington), cells were washed and incubated with Dynabeads conjugated with anti-CD31 antibody (Thermo Fisher). The beads with CEC were washed several times and cultured in a mouse endothelial culture medium (Cell Biologics). When confluent, cells were purified with Dynabeads conjugated with anti-Mouse CD102 (ICAM2) antibody. Each animal was used separate isolations, and cells less than passage 6 were used for the experiments.
For loss of function PGC-1α studies, we treated miR-21+/+ or miR-21−/− mouse CEC with either vehicle or a PGC-1α inhibitor SR-18292 (SR, MedChemExpress) at 20 μM for 72 h. SR-18292 induces PGC-1α acetylation [59 (link)]. Conversely, for the gain of function PGC-1α studies, we overexpressed PGC-1α in WT CEC using adenoviral Ad-PGC-1α and control Ad-GFP (generously provided by Dr. Pere Puigserver from Harvard Medical School) [65 (link)]. CEC were transduced with adenovirus at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 50 and treated with high glucose (25.5 mM) for 72 h.

After 12 days of treatment, wound tissues were excised, fixed in 10% formalin buffer at room temperature for 24 hours, and embedded in paraffin to prepare histological sections. The sections were stained with H&E and Masson’s trichrome. The bright-field microscopic images of the samples were recorded using an inverted fluorescence microscope (Olympus, IX83). Similarly, the wound tissues were collected on day 12 and were immunofluorescently stained with anti-CD31 antibody (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA3105). Furthermore, the immunofluorescence staining of TNF-α and IL-6 were carried out by excising the wound tissues on day 9 and staining with primary antibodies anti–TNF-α antibody (Abcam, ab1793) and anti–IL-6 polyclonal antibody (Bioss, bs-0782R), respectively. All the steps of immunofluorescence staining were carried out according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The fluorescence intensities were measured using inverted fluorescence microscopy (Olympus, IX83).

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.
