Detection of Cellular Senescence on Murine Muscle Tissue Sections by Senescence-Associated β-Galactosidase Staining.
Staining for the presence of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) serves as a crucial indicator for cellular senescence. This staining assay is based on the elevated activity of β-galactosidase in senescent cells, which cleaves the X-Gal substrate to produce an insoluble blue product in acidic conditions. This enables X-Gal to be visualized using microscopy. In this study, we describe the identification of SA-β-gal+ cells within murine muscle tissues.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
