2019, Neurobiology of DiseaseCitation Excerpt :RGCs were purified by immunomagnetic separation, as previously described.( Shoge et al., 1999; Mukai et al., 2002; Levin, 2005) Briefly, to first remove Müller glia, the cell suspension was centrifuged (4 °C at 250 ×g) and re-suspended in DMEM/Glu with a polyclonal mouse anti-CD44 IgG (4 μg/ml, Catalog no: ab157107; Abcam). The suspension was incubated on ice for 10 min while shaking, before centrifugation (4 °C at 250 ×g) and incubation on ice for 15 min, shaking, with anti-mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) secondary antibody conjugated to magnetic microbeads.

The retrograde fluorescent tracer 1,1′-dioctadecyl-3,3,3′,3′-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI, Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR) was used as previously described [50]. Briefly, ten 1-day-old rats were anesthetized by hypothermia [41].

A brief description of the procedure is as follows: P1 Wistar rats were anesthetized and killed by quick decapitation, and subsequent retinal suspension was incubated with biotinylated anti-rat Thy-1.1 antibody (Pharmingen, CA) diluted to 1:40 in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium: nutrient mixture F-12 (DMEM/F-12) for 20 min at 37 °C, 5% CO2.
