The rats were killed by intraperitoneal injection (10% chloral hydrated, 1 ml/100 g) and 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) was used to fix via cardiac perfusion. Coronal brain slices (15 μm thick) were prepared and used for staining. Slices were washed in PBS for 5 min, three times, then blotted in 5% goat serum for 1 h at room temperature. Slices were incubated with the primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Primary antibodies used: mouse anti-Iba1 (1:200 Sigma American), mouse anti-GFAP (1:200 Sigma American), rabbit anti-iNOS, anti-Arg1, anti-IL-1β, anti-TNF-α, anti-IL-4, anti-IL-6, and anti-IL-10 (1:200; Bioss, Beijing, China). After having been washed in PBS three times, these slices were incubated with secondary antibodies at 37°C for 2 h. Secondary antibodies: Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:200; Bioss, Beijing, China), Cy3-conjugated goat ant-mouse IgG (1:200; Bioss, Beijing, China). Then these slices were washed three times again and stained with DAPI (Biyuntian, China) for 5 min. Results were imaged using a 7266-fluorescence microscope (Leica, Japan).

Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min and then washed in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). After being blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin containing 0.5% Triton X-100 for 1 h at 37°C, the microglia were incubated with the following primary antibodies at 4°C overnight: mouse anti-Iba1 (1:200, Bioss, Beijing, China), rabbit anti-iNOS, anti-Arg1, anti-IL-1β, anti-TNF-α, anti-IL-4, anti-IL-6 and anti-IL-10 (1:200, Bioss). After being washed in PBS three times, the cells were incubated with the following secondary antibodies at 37°C for 1 h: Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:200, Bioss) or Alexa Fluor Cy3-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1:200, Bioss). After being washed in PBS three times, the cells were incubated with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Biyuntian, China) for 5 min. The cells were then washed in PBS and observed under a 7266-fluorescence microscope (Leica, Japan).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Neuroinflammatory Markers

The sections were routinely dewaxed to water, incubated with 3% hydrogen peroxide at room temperature for 10 min, placed in citrate buffer at 95°C for 15 min, and cooled to room temperature. The sections were blocked in goat serum for 30 min and incubated overnight at 4°C with the following primary antibodies: rabbit anti‐CX3CL1 (1:500; Bioss), rabbit anti‐CX3CR1 (1:500; Bioss), rabbit anti‐iNOS (1:400; Bioss), rabbit anti‐CD163 (1:500; Bioss), and rabbit anti‐CD11b (1:4000; Abcam). After being washed in PBS solution, the sections were incubated with the secondary antibodies for 1 h. The following secondary antibodies were used: goat anti‐rabbit IgG horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugate (ZSGB‐Bio). After being washed in PBS solution, develop color at room temperature with 3,3'‐diaminobenzidine. The nuclei were stained with hematoxylin. The positive area was counted by an unbiased, blinded investigator using ImageJ software.

Protein Extraction and Western Blot

For protein extraction, 1 mL of NP-40 lysis buffer (Biyuntian) was transferred to each well of a six-well plate of microglia on ice for 30 min, and the cells were then centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 10 min. The soluble protein solutions were then mixed with 5x sample buffer (Biyuntian) and boiled at 90oC for 10 min. Equal amounts of protein (60 μg) from each sample were separated via 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (Sigma) and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The membranes were blocked in 5% milk with Tris-buffered saline for 1 h, and then were incubated with the following primary antibodies at 4°C overnight: rabbit anti-iNOS, anti-Arg1 (1:500, Bioss) and rabbit anti-actin (1:1000, Santa Cruz Biotechnology). The membranes were washed three times in Tris-buffered saline with Tween and then incubated with the secondary antibody (peroxidase-conjugated IgG, 1:5000, Santa) at room temperature for 2 h. Binding antibodies were visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence on an imaging system (Amersham Imager 600).

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.
