Neutrophil Activation Assay and Gene Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MPO activity was measured in flash-frozen liver tissue as previously described (Cassini-Vieira et al., 2015 ). Neutrophils were isolated from bone marrow (Supplemental methods), resuspended in RPMI +10% FBS, and plated in 96-well plates at a density of 2x106 cells per mL. After 1h, allowing cells to acclimate to plating, neutrophils were challenged with or without 100 ng/mL bacterial lipopolysaccharide (#L-2654, Millipore Sigma) for 90 minutes. The plate was briefly spun to pellet cells, the cell-free supernatant was collected to perform the MPO activity assay (#600620, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI) per manufacturer’s instructions. RPMI + 10% FBS served as a background control. Both MPO assays were terminated at 5 minutes after substrate addition. Activity was determined by change in O.D. at 450 nM over 5 minutes.
After removal of supernatant, neutrophils were washed with cold PBS, pelleted by centrifugation and resuspended in RNA lysis buffer RLT (Qiagen, Germantown, MD) for RNA isolation with RNeasy mini kits. Expression of neutrophil-associated mRNA was determined with gene-specific primers listed in Table S1.

Air-liquid interface culture media (F6 media) consisted of 1:1 ratio of bronchial epithelial basal medium (BEBM) and Dulbecco's modified eagle medium (DMEM) plus insulin, transferrin, epinephrine, bovine pituitary extract (BPE), gentamicin and amphotericin, bovine albumin (0.5 μg/ml, ethanolamine (80 μM), MgCl2 (0.3 mM), MgSO4 (0.4 mM), CaCl2 (1 mM), retinoic acid (30 ng/ml), hEGF (10 ng/ml). Bovine collagen I (3 mg/ml) was obtained from Advanced BioMatrix (San Diego, CA). RNA lysis buffer (RLT) was from Qiagen (Hilden, Germany). RIPA Western lysis buffer was purchased from Thermo-Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA).

Culture and infection of pBEC and alveolar epithelial cultures at air liquid interface (ALI) was performed as previously described.24 ,25 (link) Briefly, prior to infection, cells were washed once with PBS and inoculated with equal number of virus particles for Delta, Omicron BA.2 and BA.5. Two hours post-incubation at 37 °C virus inoculum was removed and unbound virus was washed off using 500 μL of PBS. At 3 days post-infection cells, were collected in RNA lysis buffer (RLT) (Qiagen) with 1% 2-mercaptoethanol for total RNA extraction.

RNA-sequencing was performed as previously described (10 (link)). Briefly, cells were lysed in RLT RNA lysis buffer (Qiagen) containing 1% 2-mercaptoethanol, followed by RNA reverse transcription by SMART-seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing (Clontech). After fragmentation of cDNA using the Covaris sonication system, sequencing libraries were prepared using the Kapa Library preparation kit for IonTorrent (KAPA) by following the manufacturer’s protocol. Sequencing of cDNA libraries was performed on a IonS5 (Thermo Scientific). Acquired sequencing results were mapped to the reference mouse genome (mm9) using Tophat2, and unmapped sequences were analyzed again by bowtie2. Normalized FPKM values were acquired using Cuffnorm of the Cufflinks package (version 2.2.1, Trapnell Lab) under default settings. Gene set enrichment analysis (30 (link)) was performed with the following settings: collapse = true, permutation type = gene_set, scoring = weighted, metric = log2_ratio_of_classes. Hierarchical clustering was performed using the heatmap.2 function in R package gplots.

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.
