Tissue paraffin sections were immersed in xylene for dewaxing and then successively placed in ethanol at a gradient concentration for hydration. Antigen was retrieved using 0.01M citrate buffer (pH 6.0) at 100°C for 10 min. Endogenous peroxidase was devitalized using 100 µl 3% H2O2 at room temperature for 10 min. Three percent BSA was used to block tissue section at room temperature for 1 hour. The primary antibody CYP2C8 (Abcam, USA) and Ki67 (Proteintech, USA) were respectively diluted according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and the sections were incubated overnight in primary antibody diluent at 4 °C. After washing thrice within PBS, the sections were incubated with corresponding secondary antibodies (ZSGB-Bio, China) at room temperature for 30 min. After washing twice in PBS to get rid of residual secondary antibodies, the tissue sections were dripped with an appropriate amount of the detection system V9000 (ZSGB-Bio, China) and incubated at 37°C for 20 min. After washing twice in PBS, the tissue sections were dripped with freshly prepared DAB solution (ZSGB-Bio, China) and incubated at room temperature for 5–10 min. When showing positive stain, the tissue sections were immediately washed to stop the chromogenic reaction. Then, the sections were counterstained with hematoxylin solution.

For DAB staining, the commercial human tissue array was deparaffinized and stained firstly with FD10 (1 μg/mL), then incubated with Biotin-conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody (ZSGB-BIO) and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin (Thermo Fisher). The binding was detected by DAB solution (ZSGB-BIO). The tissues were then counter stained using hematoxylin (ZSGB-BIO). Images were taken with an OLYMPUS BX51 microscope with an UPlanFL N digital camera.
For immunohisto-fluorescence, the commercial human tissue array (AOMEI) was deparaffinized and co-stained with both anti-FXYD6 mAb FD10 (1 μg/mL) and anti-Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunit antibody, followed by fluorescent-labeled secondary antibody. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. Pictures were taken with a confocal laser scanning microscope (Olympus FV1000) with an Olympus IX81 digital camera.

After dewaxing and rehydration, slides were incubated with 3% H2O2 for quenching endogenous peroxidase activity and then heated in boiling antigen unmasking solution for antigen retrieval. Slides were blocked with 5% goat serum (Vector Laboratories, UK) for 1 h, then incubated with primary antibody in a humidified chamber at 4℃ overnight. Positive signal was visualized by DAB solution (ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China). The images were visualized and acquired using the Leica DM 1000 microscope image system. Quantitative evaluation involved the use of Image-Pro Plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, Rockville, MD, USA) 58 (link). Positive signals and the number of positive cells in the kidney were quantified in 10 bright fields (×200) in the eyepiece of the microscope.

Following the standard procedure, paraffin‐embedded rat artery sections were rehydrated by dimethylbenzene and gradient ethanol. Then, 0.05 mol/L sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) was introduced for heat‐mediated antigen retrieval. Slides were submerged in 3% hydrogen peroxide for 10 minutes to remove endogenous peroxidase. After a wash step, the slides were blocked with 10% goat serum (ZLI‐9021; ZSGB‐BIO) for 30 minutes at 37°C, followed by an overnight incubation with primary antibodies against α‐SMA (1:500 dilution), calponin 1 (1:200 dilution) and RUNX2 (1:100 dilution) at 4°C in a humid box.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Before all animal studies, ethics approval was obtained from the Animal Care Committee of Changhai Hospital, Second Military Medical University (Naval Medical University). For xenograft experiments, a total of 20 male C57/BL6 mice were purchased from the Model Animal Research Center (Nanjing, China). All mice were randomly and evenly divided into four groups. AKR cells stably transfected with sh-NC or sh-NAT10#1 were inoculated subcutaneously on the right dorsal side of mice at a density of 2 × 106 cells per mouse. Two groups of mice underwent PD-1 treatment at 7 days after injection. Tumor volume was recorded and calculated every four days according to the formula (length × width2/2). At day 28, mice were sacrificed, and each tumor was isolated and weighed. Tumor samples from the four different groups were collected for IHC staining.
For IHC staining, after the sections were deparaffinized and rehydrated, the specimens were incubated in EDTA buffer (1 mM, PH 8.0) for antigen retrieval using a high-pressure method. Then, tissue sections were incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies, including anti-NAT10, anti-CD163, and anti-CD86. DAB solution (ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China) was used to detect target proteins, which were conjugated with a peroxidase enzyme to form a brown precipitate.

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.
