In this video, we demonstrate the procedure of CD40-activation and expansion of murine B cells from splenocytes of C57BL/6 mice, which can be used as a model antigen-presenting cell (APC) to study induction of immunity.
Cardiac slices are a unique model for cardiovascular research and bridge the gap between single-cell and whole-heart models. This protocol describes the preparation of viable cardiac slices from myocardial tissue samples excised during surgery for congenital heart disease.
The node and notochordal plate are transient signaling organizers in developing mouse embryos that can be visualized using several techniques. Here, we describe in detail how to perform two of the techniques to study their structure and morphogenesis: 1) scanning electron microscopy (SEM); and 2) whole mount immunofluorescence (WMIF).
