Paraffin sections were deparaffinized in three solutions of xylene and rehydrated in a graded series of ethanol solutions. For antigen retrieval, slides were placed in 0.01 M citrate buffer at pH 6.0 and heated in a steamer for 30 min. Endogenous peroxidases were quenched by incubating the samples with 3% hydrogen peroxide for 20 min at room temperature. Sections were incubated overnight at 4°C using a 1:50 dilution of the primary antibody against MIF (Santa-Cruz Biotechnology Inc.). Sections were then incubated for 30 min with a biotinylated secondary antibody (LSAB system HRP kit; DakoCytomation, Glostrup, Denmark), rinsed in PBS, and incubated for 30 min with a streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate (LSAB; DakoCytomation). The reaction was developed for 5 min using 3, 30-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA). Slides were counterstained in hematoxylin, dehydrated, and covered with a cover slip. Negative and positive controls were simultaneously analyzed. Positive controls comprised mammary tissues. The slides were captured using a microscope slide scanner (3D-HISTECH Ltd., Budapest, Hungary).

We used DAB staining to better visualize nuclear cfos expression over a relatively large area. 30 minutes after i.p. dexmedetomidine (50, 100, 400 μg/kg), or saline (0.9%) administration, experimental mice were anesthetized, perfused transcardially, and free-floating sections processed for immunohistochemistry with rabbit antibody to Fos29 (link) (1:20,000, Ab-5, Calbiochem) after blocking endogenous peroxidase with 0.3% H2O2 in PBS.The primary antiserum was localized using a variation of the avidin-biotin complex system (Vector Laboratories). In brief, sections were incubated for 120 minutes at 22–25 °C in a solution of biotinylated goat antibody to rabbit IgG (PK-6101, Vector Laboratories) and then placed in the mixed avidin-biotin horseradish peroxidase complex solution (ABC Elite Kit, Vector Laboratories) for 60 minutes. The peroxidase complex was visualized by a 4 to 5-minute exposure to chromogen solution (0.05% 3,30-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (wt/vol, Sigma-Aldrich), 0.4 mg/ml nickel ammonium sulfate to produce a blue-black product. The reaction was stopped by washing in distilled water and PBS. Sections were dehydrated and cover-slipped with quick mounting medium (Eukitt, Fluka Analytical).

Quantifying GAL2 Receptor Changes in Rat Brain

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 days after injection of siRNA GAL2 receptor, two rats per day were perfused transcardially. The brains were then dissected and serial, coronal free-floating sections (30 μm thick) were collected. The control group received an injection of Accel siRNA Delivery Media (vehicle). The sections were incubated with a primary antibody rabbit anti-GAL2 receptor (Alomone Lab, 1/250) overnight at 4ºC. An hour incubation with biotinylated, specific secondary antibodies (1:200; Vector Labs Inc) was performed at room temperature. The chromogen used was 0.03% 3-30-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (Sigma).
Analysis of GAL2 receptor IR was performed under light microscopy (Nikon Optiphot-2) in the neuro-anatomical area of interest. Four sections of two animals per day were examined and captured by a video camera (Olimpus UC30) linked to a PC computer, and GAL2 receptor IR was quantified by optical density using the computer software ImageJ (National Institutes of Health).

Lung tissues fixed with 10% buffered formalin were sectioned at 4 µm and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) for histologic examination. To analyze AT2R expression in both LLC and H358 tumor grafts, sections were deparaffinized and heat-induced epitope unmasking was performed in the citrate buffer followed by incubation with 3% H2O2/methanol for 3 minutes to block endogenous peroxidase activity. Sections were incubated with polyclonal anti-AT2R antibodies (1:200 dilution, for 18 hours at 4°C, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Dallas, TX).

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.
