  Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-GFAP antibody (ab4674)

  10x and 63x z-stack images of the CA1 hippocampal region for each treatment are shown, with NeuN staining in green and GFAP staining in red.
  

  Two month-old wild-type mice were placed on either control (n = 10) or inhibitor diet (PLX3397, provided at 290 mg/kg chow; n = 14) for 21 d, causing the elimination of approximately 99% of microglia brain-wide.

  Fluorescent immunolabeling of the microglia followed a standard indirect technique (primary antibody followed by fluorescent secondary antibody). Brain tissue (sliced at 40 μm) was stained using the anti-ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA1, polyclonal, rabbit) antibody (1:1000; Wako, Cat. #019–19741), mounted on slides, and coverslipped using Dapi Fluoromount-G (SouthernBiotech). Half brain images were obtained by stitching using a Zeiss AxioImager M2 upright microscope and Stereo Investigator software package from MicroBrightField. In addition, tissue was stained with anti-hexaribonucleotide binding protein-3 (NeuN, monoclonal, mouse) antibody (1:1000; Millipore; Cat. #MAB377) to label neurons and anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP, polyclonal, chicken) antibody (1:500; Abcam; Cat. #ab4674) to label astrocytes, and 10x and 63x z-stack images obtained for each treatment using confocal microscopy.

  Immunohistochemistry - Free Floating - Anti-GFAP antibody (ab4674)

  GFAP immunohistochemistry staining of mouse hippocampus using chicken anti-GFAP antibody
  
  Immunofluorescent analysis of a section of mouse hippocampus stained with ab4674 at a 1:5000 dilution in green.

  Costained with a rabbit pAb to FOX3/NeuN dilution 1:5000 in red. The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. Following transcardial perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde mouse brain was post fixed for 24 hours cut to 45 μM and free-floating sections were stained. The GFAP antibody stains a network of astroglial cells while the Fox3/NeuN antibody stains the nuclei and proximal perikarya of neurons.

  Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-GFAP antibody (ab4674)

  GFAP immunohistochemistry staining of mouse brain using chicken anti-GFAP antibody
  
  IHC image of GFAP staining in a formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded mouse normal brain tissue section.

  The section was pre-treated using pressure cooker heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6). The section was incubated with ab4674 at 1/1000 dilution for 15 minutes at room temperature. A goat anti-chicken biotinylated secondary antibody was used to detect the primary and visualized using an HRP conjugated ABC system. The section was counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

  Immunofluorescence staining of SOX9 using Anti-SOX9 antibody [EPR14335] ab185230 in primary hippocampal mouse neurons/glia (obtained from Transnetyx Tissue by BrainBits LLC cat.no. C57EHP) DIV14. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) permeabilized with 0.1% TritonX-100 (in PBS) for 5 mins and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with Anti-SOX9 antibody [EPR14335] ab185230 at 5 μg/ml, ab4674 (anti-GFAP) at 1/1000 dilution and Anti-NeuN antibody [1B7] - Neuronal Marker ab104224 (anti-NeuN) at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150081 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed ab150176 Goat Anti-Chicken IgY H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 594) preadsorbed (shown in red) and Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 647) preadsorbed ab150119 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 647) (shown in purple) all secondary antibodies at 1/1000 dilution. Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
  As expected most GFAP positive cells are also SOX9 positive while NeuN positive cells are SOX9 negative.
  Images were acquired with the Perkin Elmer Operetta HCA and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.
