Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS (Sigma-Aldrich) for 15 minutes and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 15 minutes. Slides were blocked with IB-solution for two hours and incubated either with rabbit polyclonal anti-Ccdc181 (1:100, Sigma-Aldrich) and mouse monoclonal anti-α-Tubulin (1:500, Sigma-Aldrich) or mouse monoclonal anti-acetylated α-Tubulin (1:2,000, Sigma-Aldrich), or with rabbit polyclonal anti-Ccdc181 (1:100, Bioss Antibodies) and anti-Hook1 (1:100, Bios Antibodies) directly coupled to Alexa488 or Alexa555, respectively, over night at 4°C. The next day, slides incubated with unlabeled primary antibodies were incubated with goat anti-mouse Alexa488- and goat anti-rabbit Alexa568-coupled antibodies (1:500, Invitrogen) for 90 minutes. Additionally, to visualize the acrosome of isolated germ cells all slides were incubated with Alexa647-conjugated PNA (1:100, Invitrogen) in PBS for 30 minutes. All slides were mounted using ProLong Diamond Antifade with DAPI (Invitrogen) and examined using the Zeiss LSM780 laser scanning microscope.

The cells were fixed with 4 % PFA, and unspecific binding was prevented by incubating cells in a 3 % BSA and 0.5 % Triton X-100 solution (all from Sigma-Aldrich) for 30 min at RT. The cells were incubated with primary antibodies prepared in 0.3 % BSA and 0.1 % Triton X-100, kept overnight at 4 °C, washed with PBS, and finally incubated for 1 h at RT with the corresponding secondary antibody. Antibodies used were as follows: rat monoclonal anti-CD11b (1:600; AbD Serotec), mouse monoclonal anti-acetylated α-tubulin (1:100; Sigma-Aldrich), goat polyclonal anti-Nox1 (1:250; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany), Alexa Fluor 594 goat anti-rat, Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-rat, Alexa Fluor 488 donkey anti-goat, and Alexa Fluor 594 rabbit anti-mouse (all 1:200 in PBS, from Life Technologies Ltd). Membrane ruffling was observed using phalloidin, a marker for filamentous actin. The cells were incubated for 2 h with Alexa Fluor 594 conjugated to phalloidin (1:100; Life Technologies Ltd) in PBS, at RT. For nuclear labeling, cell preparations were stained with Hoechst 33342 (2 μg/ml, Life Technologies Ltd) in PBS, for 5 min at RT and mounted in Dako fluorescent medium. Fluorescent images were acquired using an Axio Observer LSM710 confocal microscope (Zeiss) under a 63× oil objective.

Vestibular tissue from mice at P1, P3, and 6 months of age were dissected and then immediately fixed 10 minutes in ice-cold methanol. For labeling of cochlear hair cells, the organ of Corti was removed from mice of different ages, cultured overnight [30 (link)], and then fixed 10 minutes in ice-cold methanol.
Following fixation, vestibular or cochlear tissue was washed in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), blocked in 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 hour, and then incubated with primary antibodies diluted in 2% BSA overnight. Primary antibodies were anti-H340 rabbit polyclonal recognizing SVIL [31 (link)], mouse monoclonal anti-actin (1:100, Clone C4, Millipore, Germany), mouse monoclonal anti-acetylated α-tubulin (1:100, 6-11B1, Sigma, USA), mouse monoclonal anti-β-catenin (1:200, BD Transduction Laboratories, USA), and mouse monoclonal anti-ZO-1 (Invitrogen; Cat. #: 339100). Secondary antibodies were Alexa Fluor 488 chicken anti-rabbit IgG (1:200) and Alexa Fluor 546 goat anti-mouse IgG (1:200, Invitrogen, USA). Alexa Fluor 633 phalloidin (1:50, Invitrogen, USA) was used.

Third instar larvae or cultured neurons were fixed according to standard protocols. The following antibodies were used: guinea pig anti-ringer (1:1000) (Mino et al. 2016 (link)), mouse anti-futsch antiserum (1:100; Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank 22C10), mouse monoclonal antiacetylated α-tubulin (1:100; Sigma T7451), and fluorescence-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:1000; Jackson ImmunoResearch). For microtubule staining, a 1× PHEM (1.8% PIPES, 0.5% HEPES, 0.4% EGTA, 0.04% MgCl2) microtubule stabilization buffer was used for dissections before and after 20 min of methanol fixation at −20°C. Larval body walls were permeabilized with 10% triton x-100 in 5% normal goat serum and 1× PBS overnight at 4°C to improve antibody penetrance for microtubule staining. Images were acquired using a confocal microscope and analyzed in ImageJ software. Z-stacks containing the regions of the cell to be quantified were used to make maximum intensity projections that were then outlined and measured for fluorescence intensity of the respective immunofluorescence in the cell body and axons (proximal and distal).

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.
