Brain-localized and Intravenous Microinjections in the Larval Zebrafish to Assess Innate Immune Response

[Abstract]  

Creating a robust and controlled infection model is imperative for studying the innate immune response. Leveraging the particular strengths of the zebrafish model system, such as optical transparency, ex utero development, and large clutch size, allows for the development of methods that yield consistent and reproducible results. We created a robust model for activation of innate immunity by microinjecting bacterial particles or live bacteria into larval zebrafish, unlike previous studies which largely restricted such manipulations to embryonic stages of zebrafish. The ability to introduce stimuli locally or systemically at larval stages provides significant advantages to examine host response in more mature tissues as well as the possibility to interrogate adaptive immunity at older

Liposomal Clodronate-mediated Macrophage Depletion in the Zebrafish Model

[Abstract]  

The ability to conduct in vivo macrophage-specific depletion remains an effective means to uncover functions of macrophages in a wide range of physiological contexts. Compared to the murine model, zebrafish offer superior imaging capabilities due to their optical transparency starting from a single-cell stage to throughout larval development. These qualities become important for in vivo cell specific depletions so that the elimination of the targeted cells can be tracked and validated in real time through microscopy. Multiple methods to deplete macrophages in zebrafish are available, including genetic (such as an irf8 knockout), chemogenetic (such as the nitroreductase/metronidazole system), and toxin-based depletions (such as using clodronate liposomes). The use of clodronate-containing

[摘要]  [摘要]为了进行能力在体内巨噬细胞比耗尽仍然是有效的手段,在广泛的生理环境的巨噬细胞的揭开功能。与鼠模型相比,斑马鱼具有良好的成像能力,因为它们的光学透明性从单细胞阶段到整个幼体发育期开始。这些素质成为重要的体内细胞特异的枯竭,使靶细胞的消除可以跟踪并通过显微镜进行实时验证。多种方法以耗尽巨噬细胞在斑马鱼中是可用的,包括遗传(如IRF8敲除),chemogenetic(如在 硝基还原酶/甲硝唑系统)和基于毒素的消耗(例如使用氯膦酸盐脂质体)。在吞噬脂质体后,使用含氯膦酸盐的脂质体诱导巨噬细胞凋亡可有效地消耗巨噬细胞并测试其吞噬能力。在这里,我们描述了通过静脉注射补充有荧光右旋糖酐共轭物的脂质体氯膦酸盐对斑马鱼幼虫体内巨噬细胞进行系统耗竭的详细方案。与荧光右旋糖酐共注射可以实时跟踪巨噬细胞耗竭情况,从验证静脉内注射成功到摄取巨噬细胞分子及其最终死亡开始。为了验证高度的巨噬细胞耗竭,可以在幼虫早期进行氯膦酸盐注射时通过快速中性红色活体染料染色来确定脑巨噬细胞(小胶质细胞)的清除水平。

[背景]巨噬细胞是先天免疫系统的关键组成部分,并响应于感染,无菌性炎症,与环境变化中发挥重要作用。使巨噬细胞功能与不同生理环境中相互作用细胞类型的复杂混合物脱钩的最有效方法之一是能够特异性消除巨噬细胞并分析表型结果。小鼠中的此类耗竭实验为巨噬细胞的作用提供了很多见识(Hua等人,2018; ...

Microinjection of Virus into Lumbar Enlargement of Spinal Dorsal Horn in Mice

[Abstract]  In order to explore the role of a specific gene/protein in the specific segment of the spinal cord, the technique of intraspinal injection is particularly used to deliver viral vectors targeting the specific gene/protein. These viral vectors can knockdown or overexpress the specific gene/protein in specific cells (glial cells or neurons). In this protocol, lentivirus containing shRNA for CXCL13 were injected into the dorsal horn of the spinal lumbar enlargement segment (Jiang et al., 2016). This technique allows the study of the role of CXCL13 in the ipsilateral dorsal horn in neuropathic pain without affecting DRG or contralateral dorsal horn. [摘要]  为了探索特定基因/蛋白质在脊髓特定节段中的作用,脊柱内注射技术特别用于递送靶向特定基因/蛋白质的病毒载体。这些病毒载体可以敲低或过表达特定细胞(神经胶质细胞或神经元)中的特定基因/蛋白。在该协议中,将包含用于CXCL13的shRNA的慢病毒注射到脊柱腰扩大节的背角中(Jiang等人,2016)。这种技术允许研究CXCL13在同侧背角中在神经性疼痛中的作用,而不影响DRG或对侧背角。

[背景] 脊髓背角是一种组织良好和分层的神经元复合体,其将来自身体表面和深部组织的感觉信息传输到大脑。脊髓背角神经元的活动可以通过原始传入,下行纤维以及脊髓神经胶质细胞如星形胶质细胞和小胶质细胞来调节。了解如何脊髓神经元或神经胶质细胞中的特定蛋白质和基因有助于生理和病理性疼痛的机制越来越感兴趣。为了探索特定基因/蛋白质在脊髓中的作用,鞘内注射的技术通常用于递送激动剂,拮抗剂,siRNA或miRNA进入蛛网膜下腔。特定基因的敲除和条件缺失是另一种详尽且昂贵的方法。然而,这些方法的限制是缺乏脊髓节段和细胞类型特异性删除或过表达。这个协议表明脊柱内注射可以传递特定的病毒载体到特定的节段脊髓背角,调查基因的功能区域和细胞类型特定的方式。
