Trained immunity was induced in an in vitro model, as described previously [11 (link)]. Briefly, monocytes were obtained as described above and plated in flat-bottom 96-well plates, with 105 cells per well, and in some experiments, pre-incubated with IL-38 (3-152, 90 ng/mL; R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), IL-36RA (400 ng/mL; PeproTech, London, UK), or an InSolution NF-κB activation inhibitor (100 nM; Calbiochem, San Diege, CA, USA) for 1 h at 37 °C, or with supplemented RPMI, as a negative control. Subsequently, cells were trained for 24 h at 37 °C using Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG; 2 μg/mL; SSI, Copenhagen, Denmark), β-1,3-(D)-glucan (2 μg/mL; kindly provided by Professor David Willems, Johnson City, USA), and IL-36γ (50 ng/mL; PeproTECH) using supplemented RPMI as a negative control. After 24 h, cells were washed with warm PBS and incubated in supplemented RPMI with 10% human serum for five days. On day six, cells were restimulated for 24 h with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (10 ng/mL) from E. coli serotype O55:B5 (Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany). Supernatants were stored at −20 °C until further analysis.

Dendritic Cell Activation by CM-272

5x105 DCs were exposed to 0.05-1μM CM-272 for 24 hours in a 48-well plate in 500μL complete RPMI-1640 (Sigma-Aldrich) and cultured for an additional 24 hours with/without 1μg/mL lipopolysaccharide (E. coli serotype O55:B5; Sigma-Aldrich). DCs were collected for flow cytometry and IL-12p70 was measured in culture supernatants. DCs pulsed with 10μg/mL OVA257-264 were co-cultured at 1:10 ratio with OT-I T cells for 72 hours before IFN-γ measurement. Unstimulated and CD3/CD28-stimulated (ThermoFisher, Waltham, Massachusetts) T cells served as negative and positive controls, respectively.

LPS-induced Inflammation Model in Mice

Mice were injected intraperitoneally with LPS (40 mg kg−1, E coli serotype O55:B5; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS) as control, followed by subcutaneous injection of 700 μL Lympholyte A (Baxter Healthcare, Deerfield, IL, USA) for supportive care. Blood and tissue samples were obtained 16 hours after LPS challenge. One hour before sample harvest, LPS challenged mice were intraperitoneally injected with 700 μL Lympholyte A for supportive care.

Hyperdynamic Endotoxemic Shock Management

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A description of the model and methodology has been published previously [24 ]. Briefly, hyperdynamic endotoxemic shock was induced by administration of an escalating dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; E coli serotype O55:B5; Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, USA) up to 4 μg/kg/h over 4 h (total LPS dose 11.25 μg/kg). Adequate endotoxemia was confirmed by the occurrence of systemic hypotension with a mean arterial pressure (MAP) less than 60 mmHg after 3 h of endotoxin infusion. In the final hour of endotoxemia animals received either fluid resuscitation with 40 mLs/kg of 0.9% saline over an hour (FR; n = 8) or commenced protocolised vasopressor support (NFR; n = 8). Noradrenaline was started 60 μg/mL in 5% dextrose (Hospira, Lake Forest, IL, USA) to maintain a MAP between 60 and 65 mmHg. If noradrenaline reached a predetermined 20 μg/min, vasopressin (PPC, Richmond Hill, ON, Canada) was commenced at 0.8 units/h and increased to a maximum of 1.6 units/h if hypotension persisted. The administration protocol was the same for both groups. Post-fluid resuscitation, both groups were monitored for 12 h after the end of endotoxin infusion.

After approval from the local ethics committee of the Radboud university medical center (CMO 2010/10), lithium heparin-anticoagulated blood was obtained from 8 healthy volunteers who provided written informed consent. Blood was diluted 5 times in culture medium (RPMI [Invitrogen, Carlsbad, California, USA] supplemented with 10 μg/mL gentamicin, 10 mM Glutamax and 10 mM pyruvate) and incubated in 48-well plates in the presence of 1 or 10 μM PSB1115 (Tocris BioScience, Abingdon, UK) or vehicle (DMSO, final concentration of 0.1% in all experimental conditions) for 30 min at 37 °C and 5% CO2. Hereafter, 10 μM 5′-N-Ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) or vehicle (DMSO) was added and cultures were again incubated for 30 min. Subsequently, 10 ng/mL endotoxin (E. coli, serotype O55:B5, Sigma Aldrich) or vehicle (RPMI) was added and cultures were incubated for 24 h, after which plates were centrifuged for 8 min at 1400 RPM at room temperature and supernatant collected and stored at −80 °C until analysis. Cytokine concentrations were measured using ELISA according to the manufacturer's instructions (Human Duoset, R&D systems).

Chronic LPS-Induced COPD Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PI was induced by the bi-weekly intratracheal administration of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) 0.4 mg/mL, diluted in NaCl 0.9% for 4 weeks (1 mL/kg of body weight; E. coli, serotype O55:B5; Sigma-Aldrich Chemical Co.™, St Louis, MO, USA). This model is reported to induce airway remodeling, with similarities to those observed in COPD patients [25 (link),26 (link)].
During the last 14 days of the PI protocol, animals were exposed to a either chronic normoxia (N groups) or normobaric hypoxia (CH groups, FiO2: 10%). The hypoxia chamber was opened for 45–60 min per day to weigh animals and perform LPS administration and nursing, as previously described [27 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
