Immunohistochemical Analysis of Piscidin1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Piscidin1 was examined with an optical microscope and immunohistochemical techniques. Slices were treated with an anti-Piscidin1 antibody overnight in a humid environment. Following a PBS wash, the sections were incubated with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-peroxidase conjugate for 60 min (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA, dilution 1:100, source Goat). By allowing the sections to sit in a solution of 0.02% diaminobenzidine (DAB) and 0.015% hydrogen peroxide for 1–5 min at room temperature, the peroxidase activity of the sections was assessed. Sections were dehydrated, mounted, and inspected with a Zeiss Axioskop 2 plus microscope and a Sony Digital Camera DSC-85 after being rinsed in PBS. As a negative control, experiments were conducted without the primary antibody.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Cell Signaling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Analyses of MAPK p38, Piscidin1, and TLR2 were performed using an optical microscope and immunohistochemical techniques. Slices were exposed to anti-MAPK p38, anti-Piscidin1, and anti-TLR2 antibodies overnight in a humid environment. Slices were first washed in PBS and then incubated with a secondary antibody for 60 min. Slides were treated with diaminobenzidine (DAB) 0.02% and hydrogen peroxide 0.015% for a few minutes away from direct light. Sections were dehydrated, mounted, and evaluated using a Zeiss Axioskop 2 plus microscope (Oberkochen, Germany, Europe) and a Sony Digital Camera DSC-85 (Sony, Tokyo, Japan). As a negative control, experiments were conducted without the primary antibody.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of S100 Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemical procedures and an optical microscope were used to evaluate S100 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA, dilution 1:100, source Rabbit). In a humidified atmosphere, slices were treated overnight with S100 antibody. The sections were then washed in PBS and incubated for 60 min with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-peroxidase conjugate (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA, dilution 1:100, source Goat) from Sigma-Aldrich. The peroxidase activity of the sections was determined by incubating them in a solution of 0.02% diaminobenzidine (DAB) and 0.015% hydrogen peroxide for 1–5 min at room temperature. [58 (link)]. After being rinsed in PBS, sections were dehydrated, mounted, and viewed with a Zeiss Axioskop 2 plus microscope and a Sony Digital Camera DSC-85. Experiments were carried out without the main antibody as a negative control.

Immunohistochemical Localization of TLR-2 and VIP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemical techniques, testing TLR‐2, VIP with a light microscope for observation. Sections were incubated overnight in a humid chamber with the following antibodies: TLR2 (Toll‐like Receptor 2 Antibody, product in rabbit by Active Motif, La Hulpe, Belgium, Europe, 1:125) and VIP (Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, product in rabbit by Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, 1:4000). Then, the sections were washed in phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) and incubated for 60 min with a goat anti‐rabbit IgG‐peroxidase conjugate. Peroxidase activity was determined by incubating the sections in a solution of 0.02% diaminobenzidine (DAB) and 0.015% hydrogen peroxide for 1–5 min at room temperature (Lauriano et al., 2015 (link); Zaccone, Icardo, et al., 2017 (link)). After rinsing in PBS, sections were dehydrated, mounted, and examined under a Zeiss Axioskop 2 plus microscope equipped with a Sony Digital Camera DSC‐85. Control experiments excluding primary antibody were performed (data not showed).

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.
