Quantifying CD68+ Macrophages in Mouse Liver Sections

Livers from age and sex matched mice were frozen in optimal cutting temperature (O.C.T., Sakura). Then 7 μm sections were cut, fixed with acetone for 10 min, and stained with anti-CD68 Alexa Fluor 647 (FA-11, BioLegend). After washing in PBS, nuclei were stained with Hoechst 33258 for 5 min prior to mounting in Prolong Diamond Antifade mounting medium (Invitrogen). Sections were imaged using the Keyence BZ-X710 fluorescence microscope. CD68+% and area was determined using FIJI software54 (link). Briefly, color images were split into channels and a threshold set for each channel. The analyze particles tool was used to estimate number of nuclei in image (Hoechst blue channel). The analyze particle tool was then applied to the CD68+ channel (Red channel). The percentage was then calculated. The measure tool was used to calculate the average area of the particles above the threshold in the CD68+ channel.

Livers from mice 2 or 12 weeks of age and sex matched were frozen in optimal cutting temperature (O.C.T., Sakura). Then 7 μm sections were cut, fixed with acetone for 10 min, and stained with anti-CD68 Alexa Fluor 647 (FA-11, Biolegend). After washing in PBS, nuclei were stained with Hoechst 33258 for 5 min prior to mounting in Prolong Diamond Antifade mounting medium (Invitrogen). Sections were imaged using the Keyence BZ-X710 fluorescence microscope. Images were analyzed using Image J vers 2.0.0-rc-65/1.51n.

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.
