Abstract
Laser-capture microdissection (LCM) has revolutionized the isolation of defined regions and specific cell populations from human tissue. This approach used in combination with immunohistochemistry (immuno-LCM) has become a valuable method for isolating individual cell-types from a complex heterogeneous population. Here, we describe the detailed methodology required for the isolation of enriched populations of GFAP+ astrocytes, OSP+ oligodendrocytes, and CD68+ microglia from frozen post-mortem human central nervous system tissue using immuno-LCM.
