Third instar larvae were dissected, fixed and stained as previously described (47 (link)). Briefly, larvae or adult were dissected in iced-cold phosphate buffered saline (PBS) (Lonza, #17–516F). Dissected larvae were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, washed 3× in PBS, then washed 3× in 0.1% PBST (0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS) and incubated overnight with primary antibodies (mouse anti-lamin, DSHB, 1:200, mouse anti-mCherry 1:100 rabbit anti-TDP-43, Proteintech 10782-2-AP, 1:200; mouse anti-mono and poly ubiquitinylated conjugates, Enzo Life Sciences BML-PW8810, 1:100; rat anti-phospho Ser409/410 TDP-43, EMD Millipore clone 1D3, 1:50) in 0.1% PBST. Then, Larvae were washed 3× in 0.1% PBST (0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS) and incubated for 2 hours in secondary antibodies (anti-rabbit Alexa Flour 568, Invitrogen, # 651727, 1:100; anti-mouse Alexa Flour 647, Invitrogen, # 28181, 1:100; anti-rabbit Alexa Flour 405, Life Technologies, # 157554, 1:100; anti-rabbit Alexa Flour 647, Life Technologies, # 1660844, 1:100; anti-rat Alexa Fluor 488, Invitrogen, #A-11006), and mounted using Fluoroshield (SIGMA, #F6182).

For NET visualization with antibodies, the primary anti-human MPO antibody (DakoCytomation- A0398) was diluted into 10% FBS in PBS (1/500). 30 µL was added to adhered neutrophils, incubated (30 min, 37°C) and washed twice with sterile PBS. 40 µL of the secondary anti-rabbit Cy 5 antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch 60354) (1/500 dilution) was added. After 15 min incubation in the dark, cover slips were washed twice with PBS, and prepared with mounting media. Anti-DNA and anti-histone antibodies where obtained from Dr. Marvin Fritzler. Either the anti-DNA (1:10) or anti-histone (1:500) antibodies [36 (link), 37 (link)] were added as described above. The anti-human secondary antibodies with Alexa Flour 647 (Invitrogen A21445, 1/500) were added to cover slips and mounted as described above. Images of human NETs were acquired using the Leica DMI 4000B inverted microscope equipped with ORCA R2 digital camera and Metamorph software for image acquisition using the 63X or 100X objectives. The following excitation and emission filters were used for blue fluorescence (Ex 390/40; Em 455/50), red fluorescence (Ex 555/25; Em 605/52), far red fluorescence (Ex 645/30; Em 705/72) and green fluorescence (Ex 490/20; Em 525/36). Images were formatted and analyzed using the Imaris 7.0.0 imaging software. All images shown are representative of at least three experiments.

After euthanasia, mice were perfused with PBS via intracardiac puncture and organs were collected in 10% neutral buffered formalin. The tissues were further processed and embedded in paraffin. H&E staining was conducted as described previously.38 For IgG deposition in the glomerulus, sections were deparaffinized with histoclear and hydrated using a series of graded ethanol and finally transferred to 1X TBS (Tris‐buffered saline). Antigen retrieval was performed using a heated sodium citrate buffer (10 mM sodium citrate, pH 6.0). For detecting IgG immune complex in kidney, the sections were blocked in 3% FBS in PBS followed by incubation with anti‐mouse IgG conjugated to Alexa flour 647 (Cat# A21236, Invitrogen) for 1 h. After three washes with TBS containing 0.5% tween 20, images were acquired on a fluorescence microscope followed by data analysis in ImageJ. Kidney injury scoring was conducted in H&E and PAS‐stained sections as described previously.39, 40 Briefly, the analysis included examination of the percentage of tissue demonstrating infiltrating leukocytes, tubular dilatation, cast formation, and loss of tubular brush border with an arbitrary scoring system as follows: 0 = none; 1 = <10%; 2 = 11%–25%; 3 = 26%–45%; 4: 46%–75%; 5 = >75%.

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.
