DTT increases the distribution fluorescence intensity of tdTomato during dehydration and embedding. (A) tdTomato-labeled VIP neurons in slices after dehydration without and with DTT (7 mM) (scale bar: 20 μm). (B) Fluorescent protein preservation ratios of neurons in dehydration agents containing different concentration of DTT (n = 7, 12, 12, 12, 9, and 8, respectively). Error bars represent SD. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc tests (p < 0.05, ∗∗∗∗p < 0.001). (C) tdTomato-labeled VIP neurons in slices after being embedded without and with DTT (10 mM) (scale bar: 20 μm). (D) Fluorescent protein preservation ratios after embedding with different concentrations of DTT in the resin (n = 15, 19, 15, and 16, respectively). Error bars represent SD. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc tests (p < 0.05, ∗∗∗∗p < 0.001).
