Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was obtained by instilling 1 ml PBS through the tracheal cannula and suctioning back with a volume of 0.8–0.9 ml. The BALF was centrifuged at 12,000 g for 20 min at 4 °C as soon as finish the collection, and the supernatant was stored at −80 °C. The protein concentration was measured by the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method using enhanced BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime, Shang Hai, China). The samples were separated using 10% SDS-PAGE and electro-transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad, USA). The membranes were blocked with 5% non-fat milk for 1 h at room temperature, and were then incubated with primary antibodies in 5% BSA (in TBS + 0.1%Tween 20) overnight at 4 °C. The β-tublin (1:3000,Santa cruz, USA) was used as a loading control. The membranes were washed three times for 5 min each in TBS + 0.1%Tween 20, and were then incubated in the appropriate horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (Santa cruz, USA) for 2 h at room temperature. Finally, the protein bands were visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL). The relative quantity of proteins was analyzed using Image J and normalized to that of loading controls. Antibodies included: rabbit anti-TNF-α (1:1000, Abcam, USA), mouse anti-AQP4 (1:1000, Abcam, USA), rabbit anti -β-tublin (1:1000, Santa cruz, USA).

The lung tissues obtained from all three study groups of rats were steeped with buffered formalin in PBS, pH 7.2, and then infused in formalin at 4 °C overnight. After the fixation period, the lung tissues were embedded in paraffin. Six-micrometer sections of tissues were prepared, deparaffinized, and dehydrated. The samples were incubated in 50% formamide solution and 2 × standard sodium citrate buffer at 65 °C for 2 h and then incubated twice in 100 mM of sodium borate (pH = 8.5). The samples were blocked with 0.4% Triton X-100 in PBS and 10% goat serum for 30 min. Next, the sections were incubated with monoclonal primary antibodies in PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 and 1% BSA at 4 °C overnight. The five used primary antibodies were against IL-1β (rabbit anti-IL-1β; 1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), TNF-α (rabbit anti-TNF-α; 1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), and VEGF (Rabbit anti-VEGF; 1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, UK).

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.
