Immunohistochemistry was performed as described previously (Braz et al., 2012 (link)). Sections were viewed with a Nikon Eclipse fluorescence microscope, and images were collected with a Zeiss camera (Axiocam). High-resolution confocal images taken on a Zeiss confocal confirmed that the immunoreactivity was cytoplasmic (0.8 µm optical sections). Brightness and contrast were adjusted using ImageJ (Version 1.49b).

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.
