Testis Tissue Processing and Staining Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fixation and testis tissue processing were performed as described (Jain et al. 2018 (link)). Periodic acid Schiff (PAS) staining, immunohistochemical TUNEL assay, and immunofluorescent staining were performed by the MSK Molecular Cytology Core Facility. PAS staining was done using the Autostainer XL (Leica Microsystems) automated stainer for PAS with hematoxylin counterstain. TUNEL assay was done using the Discovery XT processor (Ventana Medical Systems) as described previously (Jain et al. 2017 (link)). Immunofluorescent staining was done with the Discovery Ultra processor (Ventana Medical Systems) and is detailed in the Supplemental Material. Stained slides were digitized using Pannoramic Flash 250 (3DHistech) with a 40× objective. Images were produced and analyzed using Pannoramic Viewer or CaseViewer software (3DHistech). Histological examination of somatic tissues is described in the Supplemental Material.

IHC Analysis of Ki-67 and Cleaved Caspase-3

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for Ki-67 and cleaved caspase 3 was performed in Molecular Cytology Core Facility of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center using a Discovery Ultra processor (Ventana Medical Systems). The Ki-67 probe (rabbit monoclonal Ki-67 antibody, Cell Signaling, #9027) was used at 1 ug/ml concentration and the cleaved caspase 3 probe (rabbit polyclonal cleaved caspase-3 antibody, Cell Signaling, #9661) was used at 0.2ug/ml concentration. Incubation with the primary antibody was done for 4 hours, followed by 60 minutes incubation with an OmniMap anti-rabbit HRP (Roche Diagnostics Cat#760–4311) secondary antibody. Discovery ChromoMap DAB detection kit (Roche Diagnostics) was used according to the manufacturer instructions. LK-2 xenograft tumors treated with vehicle, everolimus, and TAK-228 were tested. Tumors were harvested at the end of treatment (~ day 23). Slides were reviewed and scored by two pathologists, and differences assessed for statistical significance using GraphPad Prism 9 (unpaired t-tests).

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.
