Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were euthanized on Day 15. Both eyes of each mouse were enucleated and rapidly frozen in embedding medium prior to sectioning. The optic nerve parallel to the sagittal plane at the laser photocoagulation position was selected, and slices with a thickness of 4.0 um were prepared continuously. The sections were stained with HE, observed, and photographed using a light microscope (EVOS M7000 Imaging System, Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA).
Cryosections for immunofluorescence staining were thawed, air-dried, and fixed in 10% paraformaldehyde with 0.3% TritonX-100 at room temperature for 1 h. Immuno-fluorescence staining was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Next, the sections were washed in PBS 3 times for 5 min. Then, the sections were incubated with pVEGFR primary antibodies (#3817, Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA) at a 1:100 dilution overnight at 4 °C. The slides were washed with PBS 3 times for 5 min and incubated with an Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) secondary antibodies (#8889, Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA) at 1:500 dilution for 2 h at room temperature. The nuclei were stained with 100 ng/mL DAPI for 10 min. The sections were washed with PBS between these incubations. Finally, the sections were mounted and examined and captured with a fluorescence microscope (EVOS M7000 Imaging System, Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA).

FluoroshieldTM with DAPI (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) was used for nuclear staining. Stained brain sections were analyzed with an immunofluorescence microscope (Thermo Fisher Scientific, InvitrogenTM EVOSTM M7000 Imaging System, USA). These stained brain sections were quantified with the ImageJ software v1.52a (Bethesda, MD, USA).
Cells were plated onto sterilized glass coverslips placed in 6- or 24-well culture plates. Cells were fixed with 4% PFA, permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA), blocked with CAS-BlockTM Histochemical Reagent (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), and stained as described above.

The sections were incubated with specific rabbit anti-human CD44 (1:100, Boster Biological Technology, China), and TIPRL (1:200, Abcam, USA) at 4 °C overnight. After incubation with secondary antibodies at 37 °C for 1 h, DAB was used for detection. The sections were observed under an EVOSTM M7000 Imaging System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA).

Evaluating Xenograft Vascular Density

Xenografts were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and embedded in paraffin. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on 3 μm sections to visualize vascular endothelium by using CD31 antibody (1:100; catalog: ab222783; Abcam), which could only react with mice antigen. Three field images were collected from each slide by using an EVOSTM M7000 Imaging System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The discrete cluster cells stained CD31 positive was counted down as one vessel. Tumor vessel density was reported as the average number of vessels number per field.
Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to evaluate the morphological structure of nude mice injected with MSA.34

Under approved IACUC protocol 16-09005, wild-type C57B6, or HtrA-1 over-expression transgenic mice (HtrA-1Tg; Nakayama et al., 2014 (link)) were placed in the oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model of ROP (Stahl et al., 2010 (link); Iejima et al., 2015b (link)). A minimum of four biologic replicates, representing eight eyes, were performed for each condition: HtrA-1Tg RA; HtrA-1Tg OIR; C57B6 RA; C57B6 OIR. Two technical replicates were performed for each condition. Consistent with the OIR protocol as published (Connor et al., 2009 (link)), at p17 the mice were humanely euthanized and immediately following globes enucleated and fixed in 4% PFA in PBS. Retinas were isolated from fixed globes using a dissection microscope. The vasculature was then stained using Isolectin-594 and imaged in flat-mount preparation. Retinal images were obtained using an Invitrogen EVOS M7000 Imaging System. Quantification of neovascularization was done as described (Connor et al., 2009 (link)). In brief, we performed masked tracings of the neovascular retina, avascular retina, and total retinal area such that areas of neovascularization were quantified relative to the total retinal area for comparison between conditions (Connor et al., 2009 (link)).

Quantifying Basal Lipid ROS in Neural Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Basal lipid ROS levels in neural stem cells (NSCs) were measured using Liperfluo dye according to the manufacturer instructions (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Inc, Rockville, MD USA). Briefly, the neurospheres were dissociated to single cells by Accutase (Sigma-Aldrich Inc., St. Louis, MO USA) treatment and seeded on Poly-D-Lysine coated plates at a density of 105/cm2. The cells were incubated in a humidified atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO2 at 37 °C and fed with NSC media till they reached proper confluency. Finally, these cells were incubated at 37 °C for 30 min with 10uM final concentration of Liperfluo dye (dissolved in DMSO) and images were taken using EVOS M7000 Imaging System (Invitrogen, Carlsbad CA, USA) coupled with EVOS onstage incubator for precise control of temperature, CO2, and humidity. Images were taken at 20× objective using a GFP LED cube. Quantification of Liperfluo intensity was done by multiplying fluorescence intensity mean X% area from each group via ImageJ 1.52a (NIH, USA) and represented as relative fluorescence units (arbitrary units). For flow cytometric analysis, the cells were incubated with 10uM final concentration of Liperfluo dye at 37 °C for 30 min and washed with 1×PBS. Finally, the cells were collected in PBS transferred to flow acquisition tubes and quantified using BDLSR II (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

The cells were then incubated in the TUNEL solution containing FITC-dUTP for 60 min at 37 °C according to the manufacturer’s protocol (#C1088, Beyotime Biotechnology, China). Next, the cells were incubated in Hoechst 33342 for counterstaining of cell nuclei. Images were captured and analyzed using the EVOS M7000 Imaging System (Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific). The apoptosis rate was calculated as the ratio of FITC-positive cells (green cells) to total Hoechst 33342-positive cells (blue cells).

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.
