Cells - The cultured medium from 3T3-L1 cells was collected from cells treated with tumor necrosis factor (TNFα, 20 ng/mL) and/or recombinant SERPINA3C protein. Cathepsin G activity was measured using a Colorimetric Cathepsin G Activity Assay kit (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.
Mice - Fresh tissues were collected after overnight fasting of the mice. Tissues were lysed in cold PBS and centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 10 min to collect supernatant. Cathepsin G activity was measured using a Colorimetric Cathepsin G Activity Assay kit (Abcam) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

Characterization of Neutrophil Secretome

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Secreted protein samples from purified neutrophils (2 × 107 cells/ml) were examined by ELISA, activity assays and immunoblots. NE levels were determined by ELISA (R&D Systems). Cathepsin G activity was determined in samples with a colorimetric cathepsin G activity assay kit (Abcam, ab126780, Cambridge, MA), as described by manufacturers. Immunoblots were performed with anti-human lactoferrin polyclonal rabbit (immunogen was full length native protein, Cat. # ab15811, Abcam) and anti-human hCAP18 rabbit polyclonal antibodies (Cat. # PA5-20513, Invitrogen). BALF gelatinase activity (MMP9) was determined by gelatin zymography66 (link). Densitometry was performed on MMP9 positive bands and represented densitometry units (DU) measured by pixel intensity of bands, using Bio-Rad Laboratories Image Lab software (version 4.0, build 16). Equal cell numbers in each experiment was demonstrated by profiling electrophoretic of whole cell lysates in a Coomassie blue stained gel, i.e. loading control. O2 production was quantified by O2 dismutase–inhibitable reduction of cytochrome c at 550 nm, as previously described67 (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.
