Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Analyses were performed on PB samples from 15 CHC patients belonging to a previously described cohort, in which PB was collected at day 0 (before therapy) and at day 2 of therapy with pegIFN/ribavirin.16 PB was obtained from 21 SLE patients, whose clinical characteristics are described in Table 1. Buffy coats, anonymously provided by the Immunohematology and Transfusion Center of Policlinico Umberto I, were used to obtain PB from HDs. PBMCs were isolated by density gradient centrifugation through Lympholyte (Cedarlane, Burlington, Canada) and collected in complete RPMI 1640 Dutch modified medium containing 10% FBS (HyClone GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Chicago, IL, USA); 2 mml‐glutamine (Sigma‐Aldrich, Saint‐Louis, MO, USA); penicillin/streptomycin, nonessential amino acids, sodium pyruvate (all from EuroClone, Pero, Italy); and 50 μm 2‐mercaptoethanol (Sigma‐Aldrich).
Human studies were performed in accordance with the ethical guidelines of the 1975 Declaration of Helsinki and approved by the Institutional Ethical Committee (Prot. 120/16). Informed consent was obtained from all patients.
The ISG15 deficient patient was enrolled in a NIAID IRB‐approved protocol and provided written informed consent for study participation in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration. The study of human subjects was also approved by the IRB of Icahn School of Medicine (New York, USA; IF2349568).

Culture of Malignant and Non-Malignant T Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The malignant T cell line MyLa2059 and PB2B and the non-malignant T cell lines MyLa1850 and MySi were generated from patients with MF [40 (link)-42 (link)]. Mac2a is a malignant anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) cell line established from a skin tumor in the progressive phase of the disease [43 (link)] The Jurkat T cell line, J-Tag [44 (link)], and the B-cell line, Ramos 2G6 [45 (link)], have been described elsewhere. MyLa2059, PB2B, Mac-2a and Ramos were grown in conditional media (CM) (RPMI 1640, 2 mm l-glutamine and 100 g/ml penicillin/streptomycin; all from Sigma) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Life Technologies, Denmark). The MyLa1850 and MySi cell lines were grown in CM supplemented with 10% pooled human serum (HS) (Blood Bank, State University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark) and 103 U/ml interleukin (IL)-2 (Proleukin™). Primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), pooled from multiple donors, were purchased from Life Technologies, Denmark. All experiments were performed with cells at passage 2 to 4. HUVEC cells were cultured in Medium 200PRF (Life Technologies, Denmark) supplemented with low serum growth supplement (LSGS) (Life Technologies, Denmark).

Synovial fibroblasts were isolated from RA patients (n = 3) undergoing knee replacement surgery at Karolinska
University Hospital and cultured in complete media consisting of high-Glc DMEM,
10% heat-inactivated FCS, 100 µg/ml penicillin–streptomycin and 2 mM
L-glutamine from Sigma-Aldrich (Saint Louis, MO, US) in standard tissue
culture (TC) flasks (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) in a TC incubator at 37°C
with 5% CO2. Chondrocytes were isolated from RA patients (n = 3) undergoing knee replacement surgery at
Karolinska University Hospital. Chondrocytes were cultured in complete media
with DMEM-F12 (Sigma-Aldrich) in standard TC flasks (Sarstedt) in a TC incubator
at 37°C with 5% CO2. PBMCs were purified from blood samples from
healthy adult donors (n = 3) using standard
Ficoll-Paque (Ficoll-Paque Plus, GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) separation
(www.miltenyibiotec.com). Washed cells were resuspended in
Roswell Park Memorial Institute-1640 media supplemented with 10%
heat-inactivated FCS, 100 µg/ml penicillin–streptomycin and 2 mM
L-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich). All procedures were approved by the
Institutional Ethical Committee (Solna, Stockholm, Sweden, ethical number
2009/1262-31/3) and are in compliance with all ethical standards and patients’
written consent, in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki.

The mouse fibroblast L929, Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK), and Human embryonic
kidney 293T (HEK 293T) cell lines were procured from the National Centre for
Cell Science, Pune, India, and maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s tissue
culture medium (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) containing 10%
fetal calf serum, 100 units/ml penicillin, and 100 units/ml streptomycin in
tissue culture flasks (Corning, USA) at 37°C in a CO2 incubator. Cell
lines grown to monolayer cultures were maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s
medium (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) supplemented with heat-inactivated
10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) and 2 mM
L-glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich, India), 100 units/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml
streptomycin and maintained at 37°C in an atmosphere of 5% CO2incubator at 95% air humidified. The cultivated cells were regularly controlled
for cell growth and the absence of mycoplasmas.

The murine N9 microglial cell line was provided by Dr Paola Ricciardi-Castagnoli (Singapore Immunology Network, Agency for Science, Technology and Research, Singapore). The N9 microglial cells were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium (RPMI 1640; Invitrogen, 21,875-091) supplemented with 10% FBS, 2mML-Glutamine (Sigma, G6392),100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin, and the cultures were maintained at 37°C, 95% air, and 5% CO2 in a humidified incubator [67 (link)]. The cells were then seeded onto 35-mm culture dishes (0.5 x106 cells/ well) for analysis.
Dopaminergic MES 23.5 cells, a gift from Dr Wei-dong Le (Baylor College of Medicine, TX, USA), were cultured in DMEM/F12 containing Sato components growth medium supplemented with 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 units/ml penicillin, and 100 mg/ml streptomycin at 37°C in a humidified CO2 incubator (5% CO2, 95% air) [68 (link)]. For experiments, MES 23.5 cells were plated at a density of 0.5 × 105/cm2 onto 35-mm plastic dishes, glass coverslips, previously coated with poly-L-ornithine (P-4638, Sigma; 10 mg/ml). Cells were stimulated to enhance differentiation by adding dibutyryl-cAMP (D0627, Sigma; 1 mM) to the supplemented growth medium, and they were grown to 80% confluence before the start of any treatment.

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.
