What Techniques are Used to Study Chemotactic Factors in Histology?
Several techniques are used to study chemotactic factors in histology. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is commonly employed to visualize the presence and distribution of these factors within tissues. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and western blotting can quantify their levels. Additionally, in vitro chemotaxis assays, such as the Boyden chamber assay, can evaluate the functional effects of these factors on cell movement.
