Protocol for the analysis of hematopoietic lineages in the whole kidney marrow of adult zebrafish

Summary: The whole kidney marrow (WKM) is the site for hematopoiesis in the adult zebrafish. Here, we present a protocol for analyzing hematopoietic lineages in the WKM of adult zebrafish. We describe steps for the isolation of hematopoietic cells from the WKM, the downstream analysis of total marro...

description Summary: The whole kidney marrow (WKM) is the site for hematopoiesis in the adult zebrafish. Here, we present a protocol for analyzing hematopoietic lineages in the WKM of adult zebrafish. We describe steps for the isolation of hematopoietic cells from the WKM, the downstream analysis of total marrow cellularity, and analysis of cell populations by flow cytometry. We then detail procedures for May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining for analysis of cellular morphology and phenotyping.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Mahony et al.1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
