Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (CMV IgG antibody Diagnostic Kit or CMV IgG antibody Diagnostic Kit, Haitai Biotech Inc, Zhuhai, China) was employed to determine CMV infection (IgG antibody, IgM antibody) using baseline frozen (-80°C) serum samples according to the product specifications (antibody titer <1.1 is seronegative; antibody titer ≥1.1, seropositive). The test sensitivity was 96.2 and 99.9% and the specificity was 97.8 and 99.8% for CMV IgG and IgM, respectively. The optical density (OD) value and the antibody titer were proportional. Among the 563 participants, 16 participants were CMV IgG seronegative (antibody titer <1.1) and 547 were CMV IgG seropositive (≥1.1); 561 participants were CMV IgM seronegative (<1.1) and 2 were CMV IgM seropositive (≥1.1). All participants were further categorized into four groups according to quartiles of CMV antibody concentrations (U): 0–3.75, 3.76–4.25, 4.26–4.85, and >4.85.
We also evaluated CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels with E-EL-H0043c, E-EL-H0109c, and E-EL-H0102c, respectively (Wuhan Elabscience Biotechnology, Wuhan, China), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The OD value and the CRP/TNF-α/IL-6 concentration were proportional. CRP/TNF-α/IL-6 concentrations in the samples were calculated based on the OD value and standard curve, according to the kit manual, using the software curve expert 1.3.

A549 and H/R-A549 cells (5x103/well) were inoculated into 96-well plates and treated with different MAF concentrations (5, 10 and 20 µΜ) for 24 h at 37˚C. Subsequently, the cell culture medium was centrifuged at 2,000 x g for 4 min at 4˚C to remove debris and the supernatant was collected for assay. The levels of IL-6, IL-1β and IL-10 in cells were quantified using their corresponding ELISA kits (cat. no. E-EL-H0102c, E-EL-H0149c and E-EL-H0103c; Elabscience Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) according to the manufacturer's protocols. The absorbance at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.).

Quantifying Secretion Mechanisms in LPS-Stimulated HMECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The levels of human (SEC642Hu) and mouse serum MSN (SEC642Mu) and PCT (SEA689Mu) were quantified by ELISA using specific kits (USCN Life Sciences, Wuhan, China), according to the manufacturer's instructions. To explore the secretion mechanisms of MSN in HMECs after LPS stimulation, three inhibitors of the main pathways of protein secretion were employed in the experiment. The dosage of inhibitors is as follows: the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA, 1 mM, Selleck, S2767), the exosome secretion inhibitor 5-(N,N-dimethyl)-amiloride DMA (DMA, 50 nM, APExBIO, C3505), and the protein transport inhibitor brefeldin A (BFA, 10 ng/ml, APExBIO, B1400). The supernatants were collected from the cultured medium 24 h later. To explore the role of MSN in the process of excessive inflammation caused by sepsis, HMECs were, respectively, transfected with siNC and siMSN RNA for 48 h, then exposed to LPS for 24 h, and the supernatants were collected to measure IL-1β, IL-18, IL-6, and TNF-α levels (E-EL-H0149c, IL-18 E-EL-H0253c, E-EL-H0102c, E-EL-H0109c, Elabscience Biotechnology, Wuhan, China).

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.
