Abstract

Vascular network labeling in transparent tissues provides more complete information on blood vessels. To achieve a fast and efficient method for vascular network labeling in transparent tissues, we compared various vascular labeling methods under different tissue clearing protocols. FITC-dextran labeling and CUBIC cleaning treatment were found to be the best options for vascular network labeling in cleared mouse tissues. Satisfactory labeling of vascular networks in various organs can be achieved by selecting FITC-dextran with different molecular weights and different administration methods.
