Résumé
Understanding the murine fetal liver (FL) hematopoietic microenvironment, which promotes HSC proliferation, warrants identifying innate relationships between stem cells and the niche. An inclusive study of these cell associations remains elusive. Here, we optimized a protocol to immunolabel HSCs alongside the FL vasculature, a promising niche component. We provide a comprehensive plan from tissue processing, immunohistochemistry, and confocal microscopy, to three-dimensional distance analyses between HSCs and vasculature. This technique can be adapted for achieving congruous outcomes for other cell types. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Biswas et al. (2020).
