Summary: Goal:Immunohistochemistry (or IHC) is a method that allows demonstrating the presence and location of proteins in tissue sections.Day 1:Thaw the slides about 15 minutes.Wash the slides 1 x 15 minutes in PBS with gentle agitation.Wipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.Encircle the tissue section or draw lines on both sides of the section and let dry (10-15 seconds). The PAP PEN is designed to provide a water repellant barrier when a circle is drawn around a specimen such as tissue sections or cells. The barrier of the PAP PEN retains antisera within the defined area and ensures that only the amount of antibody needed for sufficient reaction is used.Block in 5% normal serum with 2% BSA in PBS plus 0.3% Triton X-100 (block solution) for 4 hours at room temperature.Drain slides for a few seconds (do not rinse)Wash the slides 1 x 15 minutes in PBS with gentle agitation.Wipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.Apply primary antibody diluted in block solutionIncubate overnight at 4°C Day 2Drain slides for a few seconds (do not rinse)Wash the slides 2 x 15 minutes in PBS 0.05% Tween 20 with gentle agitationWash the slides 1 x 15 minutes in PBS with gentle agitationWipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.Apply fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibody to the slide diluted to the concentration recommended by the manufacturer in block solution, and incubate for 2 hours at room temperature. This step should be done in the dark to avoid photobleaching.Wash the slides 2 x 15 minutes in PBS 0.05% Tween 20 with gentle agitationWash the slides 1 x 15 minutes in PBS with gentle agitationWipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.Apply DAPI 1:100 in PBS 1X for 5 min at room temperature.Rinse in running tap distilled waterCoverslip with mounting medium.Day 2Drain slides for a few seconds (do not rinse)Wash the slides 2 x 15 minutes in PBS 0.05% Tween 20 with gentle agitationWash the slides 1 x 15 minutes in PBS with gentle agitationWipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.Apply fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibody to the slide diluted to the concentration recommended by the manufacturer in block solution, and incubate for 2 hours at room temperature.

All incubations should be carried out in a humidified chamber to avoid drying of the tissue.ControlsTo estimate the contribution of the non-specific interaction and Fc receptor binding, staining protocols using an antibody directed to an irrelevant antigen (for example, BrdU) having the same isotype as the antibody of interest may be analyzed in parallel with the antibody of interest. The antibody directed to the irrelevant antigen is known as the isotype control. For whole serum antibodies, use normal serum from an unimmunized animal of the same species as the primary antibody. If an isotype control is not available, a negative antibody control is recommended. Simply replace the primary antibody with antibody diluent. A positive tissue control is strongly recommended to ensure that the antibody is performing as expected. Depending on the experiment, it may also be useful to include a negative tissue control: a tissue in which the protein of interest is not expected to be found.Referenceswww.abcam.com/technical

Summary: This staining was performed to detect fetuin-A in activated microglia. CD68 is a marker, that stains activated microglia, macrophages and monocytes. Fetuin-A and microglia were detected in paraffin sections (1 μm thickness) of formalin-fixed human brain tissue. CD68 was stained using a monoclonal mouse-anti-human antibody (Dako Cat# M0814, RRID:AB_2314148, clone KP1, dilution 1:50) and a polyclonal goat-anti-mouse Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated secondary antibody (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat# A-11029, RRID:AB_2534088, dilution 1:300). Fetuin-A was detected by using a monoclonal IgG2a mouse-anti-human antibody (clone MAHS-1, dilution 1.0 µg/mL), raised against purified human fetuin-A in our laboratories. Antibody binding was detected by tyramide signal amplification using a secondary biotinylated polyclonal goat-anti-mouse antibody (Dako Cat# E0433, RRID:AB_2687905, dilution 1:300) and a Tyramide Signal Amplification Kit (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, USA, T-20933). To minimize lipofuscin autofluorescence, sections were counterstained with Sudan Black (Sigma-Aldrich, Munich, Germany, 199664, dilution 0.3% in 70% ethanol, 5 minutes). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (Sigma-Aldrich, Munich, Germany D9542, dilution 0.25 µg/ml, 5 minutes). Sections were mounted with Immumount (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, USA, 9990402) and stored at 8°C in the dark.

Summary: This is an example of a simple short read mapping analysis that could be used as part of a transcriptomics or RNA-seq workflow. Code is intended for use on an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS OS, but it may work on other Unix or Unix-like systems.This tutorial uses data from the following very nice paper from the Hatfull group:Dedrick, Mavrich, Ng, and Hatfull, Expression and evolutionary patterns of mycobacteriophage D29 and its temperate close relatives. BMC Microbiology, 2017. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-017-1131-2The tools that are used include:SRA toolkit: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/docs/toolkitsoft/bowtie2: http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/bowtie2/index.shtmlsamtools: http://samtools.sourceforge.net/BEDOPS: https://bedops.readthedocs.io/en/latest/content/reference/file-management/conversion/bam2bed.htmlBEDtools: https://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Make sure that these tools are installed before starting the tutorial. On a Ubuntu OS you should be able to install most with "sudo apt install", but you may wish to use a package manager such as Anaconda or Miniconda as well. Throughout the tutorial some notes may be made about particular versions of tools. For example, note that the version of SRA toolkit that is installed with apt install often leads to downstream errors, it may be desirable to install this tool with Miniconda instead. Miniconda bash installers can be found here: https://conda.io/miniconda.html

Summary: BioLegend MojoSort™ nanobeads work in commonly used separation columns, based on our internal research as well as validation by external testing by academic labs. This simple protocol consists of following the MojoSort™ protocol to label the cells with pre-diluted MojoSort™ reagents and using the columns as indicated by the manufacturer.Note: Due to the properties of our beads, it may be possible to use far fewer beads that with other commercial suppliers. We recommend a titration to find the best dilution factor. However, as a general rule, dilutions ranging from 1:3 to 1:20 for the Nanobeads can be used. Please contact BioLegend Technical Service ([email protected]) if further assistance is needed.

Summary: Background Elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery (HFS) are at increased risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE). Therefore, combined postoperative mechanical and chemical thromboprophylaxis has been routinely performed after HFS in these patients. This retrospective case-control study was conducted to evaluate the additional effectiveness of preoperative mechanical thromboprophylaxis on the prevention of VTE following HFS in elderly patients.Methods Of 539 consecutive patients aged 70 years or older undergoing HFS, 404 (control group) did not receive preoperative mechanical thromboprophylaxis while 135 (study group) received mechanical thromboprophylaxis using an intermittent pneumatic compression device and graduated compression stockings from the time of admission until surgery. All patients received combined postoperative mechanical and chemical thromboprophylaxis following HFS in accordance with the same protocol. The incidence of symptomatic VTE confirmed by clinical symptoms and 3-dimensional CT angiography within one month of surgery was investigated in both groups.Results American Society of Anesthesiologists grade was higher (p=0.016) in the study group and more patients in this group had concomitant cardiovascular and neurologic diseases (p=0.005 and p=0.009, respectively). Meanwhile, more patients in the study group had received anticoagulant medication preinjury owing to comorbidities (39% vs 28%, p=0.025). The overall incidences of symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) were 7.4% and 3.7% in the control group and 2.2% and 1.5% in the study group, respectively. On multiple logistic regression, symptomatic DVT significantly reduced in the study group (OR 0.28, p=0.042), meanwhile there was no significant difference in the incidence of symptomatic PE between the two groups (p=0.223).Conclusions Preoperative mechanical thromboprophylaxis may confer an additional benefit by preventing postoperative VTE without adding more risk of perioperative bleeding in elderly patients with hip fracture.

Summary: Here we describe the standardised protocol used by the Canadian Airborne Biodiversity Observatory (CABO) to measure leaf spectral reflectance and transmittance, using the Spectra Vista Corporation (SVC) DC-R/T Integrating Sphere fitted to a portable full-range SVC HR-1024i field spectroradiometer. This standard version of our protocol describes the common case where an individual leaf is large enough to entirely cover the reflectance or transmission port of the integrating sphere. Briefly, six mature, healthy-looking and sunlit leaves from a canopy plant are selected for measurements of adaxial reflectance and transmittance. Leaf scans are referenced to a calibrated Spectralon® disk and corrected for stray light. Our leaf spectroscopy protocol builds from that of the Carnegie Airborne Observatory.
