As previously described [43 (link)], brain floating sections were incubated with 10% normal donkey serum for 1 h at room temperature, followed by incubation with appropriate primary antibodies overnight. The following primary antibodies were used in different combinations: anti-NeuN (MAB377, Millipore); anti-Aβ42 and anti-PHF1 (Thermo Fisher); anti-IBA1 (Proteintech Group); anti-P-H2A.X (Cell Signaling); anti-4-HNE and anti-8-OHdG (Abcam Inc.).

After washes, sections were mounted and coverslipped in Vectashield mounting medium with DAPI (Vector Laboratories). All the fluorescence images were captured on an LSM510 Meta confocal laser microscope (Carl Zeiss) using 40×oil immersion Neofluor objectives with the image size set at 1024 x 1024 pixels. The captured images were viewed and analyzed using LSM510 Meta imaging software. At least 4–5 representative sections per animal were utilized for immunostaining and the typical staining was selected for presentation.

The sections were rinsed 3 times using PBS, 5 min each time, after which the sections were incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature. Following the PBS rinsing, the nuclei were stained blue with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Solarbio). The sections were sealed with an anti-fluorescence quenching agent after processing, and immunofluorescence imaging was performed using a digital slide scanner.

The sections were developed using DAB peroxidase substrate (Beyotime Biotechnology, China). The sections were photographed with an Olympus AH-2 light microscope (× 200; Olympus). Images were imported into ImageJ for quantification. Briefly, the well-stained area on the images was first selected; then, the mean integrated optical density value of the area was calculated by ImageJ. According to the mean integrated optical density of the control group, the relative density of the EAE group and the MCC950 treatment group was calculated.

After behavioral testing, the rats were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium. Following cardiac perfusion with 0.9% sodium chloride and 4% paraformaldehyde, the brains were extracted, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 h and dehydrated using an alcohol gradient. Coronal paraffin sections with a thickness of 3 μm were obtained from paraffin blocks using a microtome. Subsequent to high-temperature repair and blocking, the sections underwent an overnight incubation at 4°C with the primary antibody, including anti-phospho-TAK1(Thr184/187) (rabbit. # PA5-99340; Thermo Fisher Scientific), anti-Neun (rabbit. # 26978-1-AP; Proteintech), anti-IBA1(mouse. # ab283319; Abcam), anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP; mouse. # 60190-1-ig; Proteintech), and anti-GSDMD (rabbit. # 20770-1-AP; Proteintech). After three washes in phosphate buffer solution (PBS), the sections were exposed to appropriate conjugated secondary antibodies: CoraLite488-conjugated Affinipure Goat Anti-Mouse IgG([H+L] SA00013-1; Proteintech) and CoraLite594-conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG([H+L] #SA00013-4; Proteintech), followed by counterstaining with DAPI for 10 min in the dark. Images were captured using a fluorescence microscope.

Paraffin blocks corresponding to the tumour samples analysed using Raman were processed for immunohistochemistry (IHC). IHC were carried out on the H2P2 core facility. The sections were incubated 1 h at room temperature with anti‐IBA1 (1:10,000 dilution; proteintech). Immunostaining was carried out using the discovery ultra (Ventana Medical Systems) with the Rhodamine kit (a “biotin‐free” system using multimer technology, Roche) and a Tris borate EDTA pH8 buffer for antigen retrieval. Sections were converted on to digital slides with the scanner Nanozoomer 2.0‐RS and immunostaining were quantified with the NIS software (Nikon).

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.
