Figure Legend Snippet: Analysis strategy to determine the maximum signal intensity for the TIE2 and WGA stains on STED images. A, B: Freehand selection over the TIE2 signal (A) expressed on the top of a podocyte cell. The selection was copied via de ROI Manager for the WGA staining image (B); C, D: Clock Scan Combined selected area based on the ROI previously described, for signal intensity measurements on the TIE2 image (C), and WGA image (D). The Clock Scan protocol collects the pixel intensity in a radial manner, starting from the center of the ROI, clockwise, toward the edge of the ROI region (white arrows); E, F: Expression of the gray intensities for TIE2 (E) and WGA (F), measured with the Clock Scan Combined plugin; correction filters applied for the TIE2 channel: Brightness and Contrast—minimum displayed value 19; maximum displayed value 300. P = podocyte; scale bar 5 µm.

Figure Legend Snippet: StarRED secondary antibody binds to both anti-TIE2 primary antibody and anti-podocin primary antibody—FLIM. A, B, C: Control experiment using the anti-podocin primary antibody [primary rabbit anti-podocin P0372 (Sigma-Aldrich)] and the Star RED secondary antibody [donkey anti-goat IgG StarRED 638 (Abberior), normally used to bind to the TIE2 primary antibody]. The StarRED secondary antibody in the FLIM channel (HyD R detector) shows immunofluorescent signal despite no primary antibody against TIE2 was used, indicating nonspecific binding of the Star RED secondary antibody to the anti-podocin antibody (A). The HyD X detector (donkey anti-rabbit A-21207 detection channel) shows no visible signal as expected (B). The phasor plot (C) shows the signal population corresponding to the nonspecific binding of the StarRED secondary antibody; D, E, F: Double immunofluorescence staining with primary antibodies against TIE2 and podocin shows two different lifetimes in the StarRED channel, marked in blue and green (yellow arrowheads in D), indicating contributions from both genuine TIE2 signal and nonspecific binding to the podocin antibody, and not a lifetime variation of the TIE2 binding to the slit diaphragm. The podocin FLIM channel shows only one lifetime marked in green (E). The phasor plot (F) shows the signal population corresponding to the StarRED (HyD R detector) and anti-podocin (HyD X detector) secondary antibodies; G, H, I: TIE2 population (white) and podocin population (magenta) (G) corresponding to the StarRED secondary antibody signal, gated on the FLIM image as observed on the phasor plot obtained from the HyD R detector (I). In the podocin FLIM channel (H) negligible signal corresponding to the StarRED marked population can be observed; scale bar 40 µm.
Techniques Used: Control, Binding Assay, Double Immunofluorescence Staining
Figure Legend Snippet: TIE2 staining in the presence or absence of TIE2 recombinant protein. A: TIE2 staining of a kidney glomerulum (intensity image); B: Wheat Germ Agglutinin membrane staining on a kidney glomerulum (intensity image); C: Overlay of A and B; D: TIE2 staining of a kidney glomerulum in the presence of a TIE2 recombinant protein (Recombinant Mouse Tie-2 Fc Chimera Protein, catalog number 762-T2, R&D Systems). In the presence of the recombinant protein, the TIE2 specific signal inside the blood vasculature disappeared. Signal from the parenchyma remained visible, suggesting that the primary antibody binds nonspecific to the tissue and specific to the TIE2 target; E: Wheat Germ Agglutinin membrane stain of a kidney glomerulum (intensity image); F: Overlay of D and E (intensity image); scale bar 20 µm.

White circle delimits the TIE2 lifetime population, red circles determine the nonspecific binding of the secondary antibody populations and the yellow circle delimits the autofluorescent population; for visual aid and for the purpose of this representation only, white lines were traced, post-analysis, over the selected ROI regions; scale bar A, C 60 µm, E, G, I, K, M, O, Q, S 40 µm.
