Figure Lengend Snippet: Site-directed mutagenesis and lectin affinity purification analyses reveal α 1D -AR is dually glycosylated at N65 and N82. ( A ) Lysate from HEK293 cells expressing WT SNAP-α 1D ( input ) was incubated with lentil lectin sepharose beads to isolate glycosylated proteins. Bound protein was eluted with methyl-α-D-mannopyranoside ( bound ), and analyzed using PAGE NIR.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Overview of the experimental workflow (A–D) Animal is anesthetized (A), followed by retro-orbital lectin injection (B). Animals then undergo transcardiac perfusion (C), followed by leg dissection and skin removal (D). (E–H) (E) Leg samples undergo fixation, decalcification, delipidation methods, and RI matching (tissue clearing) to render them transparent, as shown in (F). Cleared leg samples were imaged on a light-sheet fluorescence microscope (G) to view the vasculature, as shown in (H).
Article Snippet: After the depth of anesthesia was confirmed by absence of toe pinch reflex, mice were retro-orbitally injected with 50 μL Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato) lectin 649 nm (Vector Laboratories, USA DL-1178-1) or 50 uL of 2% Evans blue dye (Sigma-Aldrich E2129) in sterile saline solution (Sigma-Aldrich S8776) into the retro-bulbar sinus vein using a 31-gauge needle.
