Immunostaining was performed with modifications from standard protocol previously described (Nielsen and Dymecki, 2010 (link)). Primary antibody dilutions: rat anti-CD13 (MCA2183GA) (1:500) (AbD Serotec); mouse anti-desmin (D33) (1:50) (DAKO/Agilent); mouse anti-N-cadherin (3B9) (1:300) (Invitrogen); rat anti-Pdgfrβ (CD140b) (1:50) (Invitrogen). Secondary antibodies: Cy3 donkey anti-rat; Alexa647 donkey anti-mouse; Alexa647 donkey anti-rat (all dilutions 1:500) (Jackson ImmunoResearch). For EdU incorporation assay, mice were injected intraperitoneally with 10 μg/gram of body weight with EdU at P5–7 or P8–10 or P12–14. On the day of harvest (P7 or P10 or P14), tissue was harvested 2 h post-injection. Detection of EdU used Click-iT™ Plus chemistry, with AlexaFluor® 647 component following manufacturer’s instructions (Invitrogen). Cell nuclei were counterstained with 4′,6′-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Tissue sections were mounted with ProLong Gold™ (Invitrogen) and coverslipped for imaging.

Hippocampal neurons were transfected after 9 DIV as specified previously. At 12 DIV, neurons were incubated with rat anti-HA (Roche 3F10) for 30 min, then transferred into media containing Alexa 647 Donkey anti-Rat (Jackson Labs). After 30 min incubation in secondary antibodies, neurons were transferred back into conditioned media supplemented with fresh Neurobasal for 16 hours before being fixed, washed, and stained for proteins of interest. Co-aggregation studies were performed using multiple biological and technical replicates.

Vascularized Construct Imaging Protocol

Constructs were fixed with paraformaldehyde (4%), for 20 min, and then permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 (Bio-Lab Ltd.), for 10 min. Constructs were then washed with PBS and immersed overnight in Bovine serum albumin solution (5%; Millipore). Samples were then incubated with the following primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C: mouse anti–human-LYVE (1:200; R&D Systems), rat anti–mouse-LYVE (1:100; Santa Cruz), and anti-human desmin (1:50; Dako). Constructs were then treated with Alexa 647-donkey anti-rat (1:400) or Cy3-donkey anti-mouse (1:100; Jackson Immunoresearch Laboratory) secondary antibodies and DAPI (Sigma-Aldrich) for 3 h, at room temperature. Evans blue was injected into the vascularized construct using an insulin needle, followed by 10 min incubation, after which constructs were imaged.
Whole vascularized constructs were imaged with a confocal microscope (LSM700, Zeiss), using 2.5×, 5×, 20×, and 63× oil immersion lenses. All image analyses were quantified using self-written algorithms in MATLAB that transformed captured images into binary images prior to analysis.

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.
