MVNs were fixed with 4% PFA (Thermo Scientific, 11490570) for 1 h at RT, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, T8787) for 10 min at RT and blocked with 10% Donkey Serum (PAN-Biotech, PANP30-0101). MVNs were then stained with primary antibodies diluted 1:100-1:200 in blocking buffer, overnight at 4 °C. We used anti-CD31 (Abcam, ab24590), anti-PDGFRβ (Abcam, ab32570), anti-S100b (Sigma, S2532), anti-desmin (ab15200), anti-GFAP (Invitrogen, MA5-12023), anti-CLDN5 (Invitrogen, 341600), anti-ZO-1 (Thermo Fisher, 339100), anti-VE-cadherin (Abcam, ab33168), anti-laminin (Abcam, ab7463) and anti-collagen type IV (Sigma, MAB1910) antibodies. Devices were then washed 5 times with 1× PBS for >5 min, and stained with corresponding secondary antibodies Alexa Fluor 488 donkey anti-rabbit (Invitrogen, A-21206) or Alexa Fluor 647 donkey anti-mouse (Invitrogen, A-31571) diluted 1:250 in blocking buffer, overnight at 4 °C. Devices were washed again 5 times with 1X PBS for >5 min, stained with lectin Ulex europaeus agglutinin I (UEA I) Rhodamine (Vector Laboratories, RL-1062-2) or phalloidin (Invitrogen, R37112) and DAPI (Invitrogen, R37606), and washed overnight at 4 °C.

Cells were grown on glass coverslips and illuminated with blue light. After the routine protocol involving PBS washing, ice-cold methanol fixation, and blocking, the samples were incubated overnight (4 °C) with primary antibodies, which included anti-ADAM17 (1:50 dilution; Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, catalog no. sc-390859), anti-GNAZ (1:100 dilution; Cusabio, Houston, TX, catalog no. CSB-PA002856), and anti-CLDN5 (1:100 dilution; Invitrogen, Waltham, MA; catalog no. 34–1600). The samples were washed three times and incubated with a secondary antibody (1:1000) at room temperature for 1–2 h in the dark. Before mounting, the samples were incubated with DAPI for a short period of time to visualize the nuclei. Fluorescent images were captured using a Leica TCS SP5 confocal spectral microscope.

Visualizing Neurovascular Integrity

Two sections per brain were selected from the ventral hippocampus approximately 300 μm apart. Immunofluorescence to detect the expression of claudin-5 (CLDN5), occludin (OCLN) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) was performed on lectin-injected tissues. Brain sections were initially washed and permeabilized with PBS and Triton (0.1%) and blocking was performed in 10% goat serum, 0.2% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 0.1% Tween®. Brain sections were incubated overnight at 4°C in 3% goat serum, 0.1% BSA and 0.1% Tween with the primary antibodies against CLDN5 (Rabbit anti-CLDN5 1:200), OCLN (Mouse anti-OCLN, 1:250) and eNOS (Rabbit anti-eNOS 1:250), all from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA). The next day, tissues were incubated for 1 h at room temperature with the following secondary antibodies: Goat anti-Mouse 647 (1:500) and Goat anti-Rabbit 594 (1:400), both from Abcam ® (Cambridge, MA) and Goat anti-Rabbit 647 (1:400; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA), before counterstaining with DAPI. Tissues were then slide mounted and imaged at 40× using a Nikon Eclipse Ti-E Confocal (Tokyo, Japan) or Olympus® FV3000 Confocal (Tokyo, Japan) at 40×.

The embryos were fixed with 4% PFA for overnight at 4°C and dehydrated with methanol and stored at –20°C. Then the embryos were treated with collagenase I for 10 to 45 min at room temperature depending on the developmental stages. After the collagenase I treatment, the embryos were transferred to the blocking solution (5% bovine serum albumin, 10% goat serum in PBST) and incubated for 3 hours at room temperature. Blocking solution was replaced with primary antibody containing solution and the embryos were incubated at 4°C overnight. Primary antibodies are anti-Cldn5 (1:50, 35–2500, Invitrogen), anti-ZO-1 (1:50, 339100, Invitrogen) and anti-acetylated tubulin (1:200, T6793, Sigma-Aldrich). A series of washing steps (1% dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO], 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBST) were performed and the embryos were treated with AF-405, 488, 546 labeled anti-mouse or rabbit IgG in blocking solution for overnight at 4°C. Then, the embryos were washed with PBDTT (1% DMSO, 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBST) for 10 times. Stained embryos were mounted in glycerol and images were obtained by Zeiss LSM700 confocal microscope with ZEN software.

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.
