Apoptosis Detection in Cardiac Development

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ApopTag Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit S7100 (Millipore, USA) was used to indicate apoptotic cells in accordance with manufacturer's instructions on 5 μM serial sections. Imaging was performed using Zeiss Axio Scan Z1. Systematic random sampling [40] (link) was utilised to count positive cells against total cell count in the endocardial cushions, primordial MV and TV septal and lateral leaflets to calculate proportions of apoptotic cells for statistical analysis (see below). A total of 224,749 cells were identified as either apoptosis ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ in OFT-banded hearts at HH29 (n = 5 per group).

Immediately after sacrifice, PC nodules were removed and fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for immunohistochemical analyses. Cell proliferation was determined by staining with rabbit monoclonal antibodies against Ki67 (Dako), a nuclear protein expressed in proliferating cells. Apoptosis was determined by terminal uridine deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay using the ApopTag Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit S7100 (Millipore). Lymphocyte infiltration was determined by counting the number of CD45 positive cells in ×400 high power field.

The fragmentation of DNA was examined using an ApopTag® Peroxidase in situ Apoptosis Detection Kit (S7100) (Millipore) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, brain sections from each mouse (n = 5 per group) were subjected to enzymatic digestion with 20 μg/ml proteinase K for 5 min, treated with 5% hydrogen peroxide for 20 min to exhaust endogenous peroxidase activity, and washed with PBS. They were then immersed in ApopTag® equilibration buffer for 10 min to label the 3′-OH ends of fragmented DNA and incubated with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated UTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) at 37°C for 1 h. After being washed with PBS, the sections were incubated with DAB to detect signs of apoptotic cell death.

After the PET scans, hearts were excised. After fixation in 4% phosphate-buffered formalin, hearts were cut into 4-µm-thick sections and embedded in paraffin. Standard histological procedure (Haematoxyline-Eosine and Giemsa staining) was performed. According to the manufacturer's protocol, apoptotic cells were stained using ApopTag® Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit S7100 (Millipore) and evaluated by the Axio Version SE64 (Version 4.9) software.

Testes were examined to determine the degree of cell apoptosis. Apoptotic assay was performed by using ApopTag Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit S7100 (Millipore) with diaminobenzidine and hematoxylin according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The frequency of apoptotic cells within seminiferous tubules was expressed as the average number of apoptotic cells (brown nuclei) within 20 seminiferous tubules.

Livers were fixed overnight in 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin, and sectioned at a thickness of 6 μm. For Oil Red O staining, 10‐µm liver cryosections were stained with commercially available kits (Oil Red O color solution, Cat# 1.20419.0250; Merck, Germany). Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase–mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick‐end labeling (TUNEL) staining was performed using the ApopTag Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit (S7100; Millipore, Temecula, CA).

To investigate whether KOK has a toxic effect for long-term use in rats, KOK (2.0 and 4.0 g/kg/day) was orally administrated to normal female prepuberal rats (23-days-old) for 22 days. Body weight was measured and serum was obtained at 24 hours after the last administration of KOK. Serum level of alanine aminotranferease (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was measured using an enzymatic or ultraviolet assay with ALT, AST, or LDH detection kit (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) according to the manufacturer's instructions under cobas 8000 modular analyzer (Roche, Basel, Swetzerland). General structure, apoptotic cell death, and proinflammatory cytokines were evaluated by H&E staining, TUNEL staining, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot analysis for capase-3, or real time PCR analysis for TNF-α and fatty acid synthase (FAS), according to pre-described protocols and manufacturer's instructions (ApopTag peroxidase in situ Apoptosis Detection Kit, S7100, Millipore, USA).

Endoscopy confirmed the absence of bleeding or perforation in the lesions at 24 h post-ablation and then pigs were sacrificed. After the electroporated tissues were fixed in 10% formalin solution for 24 h. Next, the fixed tissues were mounted in paraffin and sliced into 3-µm-thick sections and analyzed using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. An additional TUNEL assay (ApopTag® Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit, S7100, Millipore, Gaithersberg, MD, USA) was performed to assess tissue apoptosis. After fixation, the presence of brown stained cells was considered positive TUNEL assay findings.

To evaluate apoptosis, TUNEL staining was performed using the Apoptag® Peroxidase In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit S7100 (Millipore Corp., Billerica, MA, USA).19 (link) After deparaffinization with xylene and graded concentrations of alcohol, gastric mucosal tissue sections were exposed to Proteinase K for 15 minutes at room temperature. Endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with Inhibitor D for 5 minutes at room temperature. Sections were incubated with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) in a humidified chamber at 37°C for 1 hour. After incubation with anti-digoxigenin-conjugate for 30 minutes at room temperature, peroxidase substrate and 0.05% DAB was applied to develop color. The specimens were then washed with distilled water and counterstained with 0.5% methyl green for 10 minutes at room temperature. Sections were counterstained with Mayer’s hematoxylin. Identically-treated slides not exposed to TdT served as negative controls. In all cases, positive staining was qualitatively evaluated on the entire slide by an experienced pathologist (E.S.).

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.
