Patch-clamp recordings of ASJ neurons in C. elegans

Cited 12 times

Patch-clamp recordings were carried out under an Olympus microscope (BX51WI) with an EPC-10 amplifier and the Pulse software (HEKA) using a protocol modified from previous studies43 (link),44 (link). In brief, worms were glued to a sylgard-coated coverglass covered with bath solution and a small piece of cuticle in the worm head was cut open and pinned down to the coverglass to expose the cells. The ASJ neuron was identified by an mCherry fluorescence marker expressed as a transgene driven by the trx-1 promoter. mCherry was excited by orange light (590 ± 10 nm). Background light was filtered into red with a red filter. Light pulses (0.5 s) were delivered from an Arc lamp (EXFO Xcite) coupled to a mechanical shutter (Sutter) triggered by the amplifier. Recording pipettes were pulled from borosilicate glass and fire-polished. The bath solution contains 145 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM CaCl₂, 5 mM MgCl₂, 11 mM dextrose and 5 mM HEPES (330 mOsm, pH adjusted to 7.3). The pipette solution for perforated patch clamp contained 115 mM potassium gluconate, 15 mM KCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 10 mM HEPES, 0.25 mM CaCl₂, 20 mM sucrose, 5 mM EGTA and 50 µg ml⁻¹ nystatin (315 mOsm, pH adjusted to 7.2). We included 5 mM Na₂ATP and 0.5 mM Na₂GTP in the pipette solution during classic whole-cell recording. When acquiring voltage-ramp traces, potassium gluconate was replaced with CsCl in the pipette solution. Nystatin was included in the pipette solution only during perforated whole-cell recording. Several other ionophores were also tested for perforated patch clamp (for example, β-escin, amphotericin B and gramicidin), and nystatin was found to be the most efficient under our conditions. Voltages were clamped at −70 mV. Current data were sampled at 5 kHz. Series resistance and membrane capacitance were both compensated for during recording.

Cited 10 times

High titer virus stocks of paramyxoviruses used for validation of broad reactivity of the assay are listed in table 1. Clinical specimens from humans to test for sensitivity of fragment analysis were obtained from the clinical diagnostic unit of the virology department, and were anonymized. Wild birds were trapped by expert ornithologists. Cloacal and/or oropharyngeal swab specimens were collected with sterile cotton swabs. All samples were stored in transport medium consisting of Hanks balanced salt solution containing 0.5% lactalbumin, 10% glycerol, 200 U/mL penicillin, 200 µg/mL streptomycin, 100 U/mL polymyxin B sulfate, 250 µg/mL gentamicin, and 50 U/mL nystatin (ICN, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands). All bird samples were stored at −80°C or at −20°C if rapid transport or storage at −80°C was not possible. Frozen samples were stored at −80°C in the laboratory upon arrival and were thawed no more than two times prior to analysis.

Antimicrobial Evaluation of Plant Extracts

Cited 10 times

The modified agar well diffusion method of Perez et al., [27 ] was employed. Each selective medium was inoculated with the microorganism suspended in SBCB. Once the agar was solidified, it was punched with a six millimeters diameter wells and filled with 25 μL of the plants extracts and blanks (ethanol, distilled water, and hexane). The concentration of the extracts employed was 25 μg/ml. Simultaneously, gentamycin sulfate (S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, E. coli, and B. cereus), clindamycin (S. β hemolytic), and nystatin (C. albicans) were used as positive controls at a concentration of 1.0, 0.3 and 1.0 μg/ml respectively. The dilution medium for the positive controls was sterile distilled water. The test was carried out by triplicate. The plaques were incubated at 35 ± 2°C for 24 h, except for C. albicans which was incubated at 29 ± 2°C. The antimicrobial activity was calculated by applying the expression:

% RIZD = \frac{(IZD sample - IZD negative control)}{IZD antibiotic standard} \times 100 % (1)

Where RIZD is the percentage of relative inhibition zone diameter and IZD is the inhibition zone diameter (mm). Equation (1) compensates the possible effect of the solvent (blank) other than water on the IZD. The resulting IZD of the samples were either higher than or equal to the IZD of the blanks. Therefore, the obtained percentages were positive (Table 1). '[see Additional file table1]'. The test was considered negative (-) when the IZD of the sample was equal to the IZD of the blank.

Isolating and Culturing Trophoblasts

Primary cells of the second trimester were purchased (Cat number 7120, ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA). As demonstrated in our previous study, EVs exert different effects on early stage trophoblast vs. term trophoblast cell cultures. Specifically, in HP women, treatment with EVs decreased apoptosis and induced higher migration in early-stage trophoblasts compared with untreated. Conversely, exposure to EVs obtained from women with GVCs increased term trophoblast apoptosis and inhibited early-stage trophoblast migration when compared to cells exposed to HP EVs (Shomer et al., 2013 (link)). Because GVCs begin earliest at 20 weeks of gestation (Peracoli et al., 2019 (link)), we preferred to study the effects of EVs on early stage trophoblasts and therefore did not culture HVT from term placentas. HVT were grown in a recommended trophoblast medium (50%, catalog number 7121, Sciencell) supplemented with Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium–high glucose (22%, Biological Industries, Israel), F-12 (HAM) nutrient mixture (22%, Biological Industries, Israel), fetal calf serum (FCS) (10%, Biological Industries, Israel), and penicillin G sodium salt (10,000 units/mL) - streptomycin sulfate (10 mg/ml)–nystatin (1,250 units/mL) solution (1%, Biological Industries, Israel). The cells were grown at 37°C, 5% CO2. Passages 4-8 were used for experiments. HVT cell cultures were labeled with anti-hPL to ensure quality control of their contents. As in our previous studies, greater than 90% labeling with anti-hPL was considered a pure trophoblast culture (Shomer et al., 2013 (link)).

Detecting Invasive Meningococcal Carriage

Throat swabs from the oropharyngeal area and from one tonsil were performed by experienced health care professionals using flocked plastic swabs (ESwab, Copan Diagnostics, Murrieta, CA, USA). Samples were placed in the ESwab tubes containing Amies transport media (Copan Diagnostics), and transported within 8 h to the national reference laboratory for N. meningitidis at Örebro University Hospital, where a duplex PCR targeting ctrA and crgA [23 (link)] was performed within 24 h. If found to be positive for both or either of ctrA or crgA, samples were subsequently cultured on selective and non-selective agar plates (GC agar with added vancomycin, colistin, nystatin and trimethoprim; and plain GC agar, respectively) incubated for 24 h in a humid CO₂-enriched (5%) atmosphere at 36 ± 1 °C. If no visible growth was noticed after 24 h, the plates were incubated for an additional 24 h. N. meningitidis was confirmed by colony appearance, oxidase positivity and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Bremen, Germany) and then subcultured and preserved.
The ctrA/crgA PCR used in this study was originally developed to detect invasive meningococcal isolates from fluids normally considered sterile. As a confirmatory analysis of the ctrA/crgA PCR, all collected samples were additionally analysed with a second PCR targeting sodC and porA, adapted from a previous carriage study [24 (link)]. Samples were considered as true positive if the culture showed growth of N. meningitidis, or showed positivity in both the ctrA/crgA and sodC/porA duplex PCRs (but not necessarily for all four PCR targets).
Except for the first sample occasion, an additional throat swab was performed that was placed in a DNA/RNA Shield Collection Tube (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA) and stored for future RNA analyses.
