After euthanasia on day 1, 3, 7, or 14 following laser photocoagulation, the eyes were enucleated and prefixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (Nacalai tesque, Kyoto, Japan) for 30 min. Retina-RPE-choroid complexes were microsurgically isolated from the prefixed eyes and further fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 1 h. The retina was removed from RPE-choroid complexes. The RPE-choroid complexes were then washed with PBS (1X; 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 8.1 mM Na2HPO4, 1.5 mM KH2PO4:Nacalai tesque) and incubated for 30 min with PBS blocking buffer containing 0.5% Triton X-100 (GE Healthcare UK, Buckinghamshire, UK) and 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). To visualize neovascularization, RPE-choroid complexes were incubated overnight at 4 °C with 0.01% fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated isolectin B4 derived from Griffonia (Bandeiraea) simplicifolia agglutinin (Vector Laboratories, Peterborough, UK) diluted with PBS containing 0.5% Triton X-100. After the RPE-choroid complexes were washed with PBS and sealed with VECTASHIELD (Vector Laboratories), CNV was observed with a fluorescence microscope (IX71; Olympus, Tokyo, Japan). Note that FITC-labeled isolectin binds to microglial cells and macrophages as well as endothelial vascular cells [19 (link)].

BCa cells grown on coverslips were fixed with 4% formaldehyde diluted in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at room temperature (RT) for 15 minutes. After a thorough rinse, cells were incubated with blocking buffer containing 1× PBS, 5% normal donkey serum and 0.3% Triton X-100 (Vector Lab, Burlingame, CA) at RT for 60 minutes, followed by incubation with the primary antibodies (S3 Table) at 4°C overnight. On the second day, cells were incubated with fluorochrome-conjugated second antibody for 1-2 hours at RT in the dark. Final immunofluorescence was observed under an inverted microscope (Axio Imager M1 microscope, Zeiss, Gottingen, Germany).

Twenty-μm-thick sections were cut from paraffin embedded hippocampus (NCI = 9, MCI = 10 and AD = 6) and immunostained (Table 3). After antigen-retrieval in 0.01 M citric acid (pH 8.5) for 15 minutes, sections were washed in phosphate buffer and TBS before a 20-minute incubation in 0.1 M sodium metaperiodate (Sigma) in TBS to inactivate endogenous peroxidase activity. Tissue was permeabilized in TBS containing 0.25% Triton-X (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) and blocked in the same solution containing 3% goat serum for 1 hour. Sections were incubated with appropriate antibody dilutions (Table 3) overnight at room temperature in 0.25% Triton X-100, 1% goat serum solution in a wet-chamber, then washed in TBS containing 1% goat serum prior to incubation with the secondary antibody biotinylated goat anti-mouse at a 1:200 dilution for 1 hour (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA). Following TBS washes, sections were incubated using the Vectastain ABC kit (Vector Laboratories) for 1 hour, rinsed in 0.2 M sodium acetate, 1.0 M imidazole buffer, pH 7.4, and developed in acetate-imidazole buffer containing 0.05% 3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochochloride (Sigma). Reaction was terminated in acetate-imidazole buffer and slides were dehydrated through graded alcohols (70%-95%-100%), cleared in xylene and cover slipped using DPX (Biochemica Fluka, Buchs, Switzerland).

IHC and IF with antibodies to COUP-TFII_V1 (cat. no. AB41859; RRID:AB_742211) and cytokeratin (CK)19 (cat. no. AB15463; RRID:AB_2281021; both from Abcam) were performed as previously described (18 (link),24 (link)). The custom-made primary antibody for COUP-TFII_V2 was used at 1:25 dilution in PBS containing 2% BSA (MilliporeSigma) and 0.01% Triton X-100 (Sigma). IHC for α-smooth muscle actin was performed with the monoclonal clone A4 (DAKO; Agilent Technologies, Inc.) diluted 1:100 in PBS with 2% BSA and 0.01% Triton X-100 following the previously described protocol; the sections were incubated with an M.O.M. kit (Vector Laboratories, Inc.) prior to incubation with the primary antibody. For β-catenin IF the same antibody used in western blot was used diluted 1:50; SMAD2/3P IF was performed with a 1:100 dilution of a rabbit polyclonal antibody (cat. no. ab272332; Abcam); actin filaments were decorated with Alexa Fluor 633 phalloidin (Molecular Probes cat. no. A22284); cell nuclei were stained with DAPI (cat. no. 10236276001; Roche). Collagen was stained with standard Sirius Red staining. Sirius Red was quantified with ImageJ 1.52r under Icy 2.0.3 on images with RGB color settings; the selection of stained areas was achieved with the function 'Color threshold'.

To determine optic fiber and electrode positions, to visualize the hippocampal anatomy after AAV9 injections, and to validate hippocampal sclerosis in ihpKA mice, we performed immunohistochemistry with markers for neurons and astrocytes. For the immunofluorescence staining, free-floating sections were pre-treated with 0.25% TritonX-100 and 10% normal horse or goat serum (Vectorlabs, Burlingame, CA, USA) diluted in PB for 1 h. Subsequently, slices were incubated either with guinea-pig anti-NeuN (1:500; Synaptic Systems, Göttingen, Germany, 266004, RRID:AB_2713971) or rabbit anti-GFAP (1:500, Dako, Glostrup, Denmark, Z0334, RRID:AB_10013382) overnight at 4 °C. Sections were rinsed and then incubated for 2.5 h in donkey anti-guinea-pig or donkey anti-rabbit Cy5-conjugated secondary antibody (1:200, Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories Inc., West Grove, PA, USA, anti-guinea-pig: 706-175-148, RRID:AB_2340462; anti-rabbit: 711-175-152, RRID:AB_2340607), followed by extensive rinsing in PB. The sections were mounted on glass slides and coverslipped with Immu-MountTM mounting medium (Thermo Shandon Ltd, Runcorn, UK).

C57BL/6 mice postnatal day 1 (P1) pups were injected intragastrically with 12.5 mg/kg of recombinant N110-14Fc decoy or Fc for three days (P1-P3). Eyes were isolated at P5 and were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 h at 4 °C on a nutator. Following fixation, eyes were washed with 1 × PBS solution. Retinas were dissected and permeabilized in 1 × PBS containing 1% BSA (Fisher Bioreagents) and 0.5% Triton X-100 (Fisher Bioreagents) overnight at 4 °C on a nutator. Samples were then immunostained in PBLEC (5% Triton X-100, 1 M MgCl2, 1 M CaCl2, and 1 M MnCl2 in 1 × PBS) overnight at 4 °C with Biotinylated IB4 (1:50; Vector Laboratories, B-1205) and anti-α-SMA-FITC (1:200; MilliporeSigma, F3777). IB4 was detected with streptavidin-conjugated Alexa Fluor 647 (Invitrogen). Immunostained retinas were postfixed with 4% formaldehyde and mounted in Vectashield (Vector Laboratories). Whole-mount retina images were acquired using Leica Dmi8 Platform. All images were analyzed using ImageJ (NIH).

To visualize TNC protein in the lung, paraffin-embedded lung sections were unmasked by boiling in a 10 mM pH 6 citrate solution. Slides were blocked with 5% normal goat serum in PBS and incubated with 1:100 primary anti-TNC antibody (AB19011, EMD Millipore, Temecula, CA). Slides were washed with 0.1% triton X-100 in PBS (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) followed by 1:200 secondary anti-rabbit biotinylated antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA). Slides were washed with 0.1% triton X-100 in PBS and treated with peroxide solution [0.6% H2O2 (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) in methanol]. Slides were washed with 0.1% triton X-100 in PBS then were incubated with 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine developing solution (Vector Lab, Burlingame, CA) for 1 h at room temperature. The signal detection was done with the Elite ABC system (Vectastain, Burlingame, CA) and hematoxylin staining was performed. The sections were embedded into ProLong Gold antifade reagent (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA). Sections were examined using an Axio Imager A1. Pictures were taken with an AxioCam Icc3 camera and Axiovision software (all: Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

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.
