Isolation and Characterization of bMSC Exosomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Exosomes were extracted from the cell culture supernatant of bMSCs. The bMSCs were first washed twice with phosphate-buffered saline (Servicebio, Wuhan, China). The culture medium was then replaced with exosome depleted fetal bovine serum (System Biosciences, Palo Alto, CA, USA) for another 48 hours. The resultant supernatant was collected and first centrifuged for 10 minutes at 300 × g. It was then transferred to an ultracentrifuge (Hitachi Limited, Tokyo, Japan, Himac cp80wx) and centrifuged for 30 minutes at 10,000 × g. Further centrifugation of the supernatant was performed at 100,000 × g for 70 minutes to form an exosome pellet. The supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was resuspended in 500 μL phosphate-buffered saline for use in subsequent experiments. The exosomes were then identified using a transmission electron microscope (FEI, Hillsboro, OR, USA). Nanoparticle tracking analysis was performed using ZetaVIEW 8.04 (Particle Metrix, Meerbusch, Germany) to measure the diameter and particle number of the exosomes. Two protein samples from exosomes with different concentrations were prepared. The antibodies of exosome marker tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70; Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) were detected using western blot assay.

Western Blot Analysis of Macrophage and Exosome Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total proteins were isolated from fresh macrophages cells (5.5 × 106) or frozen exosomes (100 μg) were lysed using RIPA peptide lysis buffer (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Haimen, China). Proteins (30 μg) were loaded on 10% SDS-PAGE gels, electrophoresed, and then transferred to PVDF membranes (MilliporeSigma, Burlington, MA, United States). Subsequently, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against CD81 (at 1:2,000 dilution, ProteinTech Group, Inc., Chicago, United States), HSP70 (at 1:3,400 dilution, Biolegend, Inc., San Diego, CA, United States), LBP (at 1:2,400 dilution, ProteinTech Group, Inc.), CD36 (at 1:2,000 dilution, Biolegend, Inc.), MHC-I (at 1:3,000 dilution, Biolegend, Inc.) and TSG101 (at 1:2,000 dilution, ProteinTech Group, Inc.) at 4°C overnight. Then, PVDF membranes were washed three times with TBS-T under shaking. Finally, the membranes were incubated with secondary antibody solution (mouse anti-rabbit IgG-HRP at a 1:10,000) for 60 min at room temperature with gentle shaking, and washed with TBS-T under shaking three times again. Protein bands were imaged and analyzed using the Chemiluminescent Substrate System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, United States).

Hyperthermia-Induced Cell Death and DAMP Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow cytometry (FACSCalibur Flow Cytometer, BD) was performed to evaluate the influence of hyperthermia on cell death and the expression of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Before cell death was analysed, hyperthermia-treated or untreated cells were incubated at 37 ℃ for 24 h. Cell apoptosis was detected using an Annexin V-FITC apoptosis assay kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For DAMP analysis, cells were collected 1 h after hyperthermia and incubated with HSP70 (mouse monoclonal antibody, Biolegend, Cat# 648,003, Calif, USA), CD47 (mouse monoclonal antibody, Biolegend, Cat# 323,124, Calif, USA) and CRT (rabbit monoclonal antibody, 1 µg/ml, Abcam, Cat# ab92516, Cambridge, MA, UK) antibodies for 30 min followed by flow cytometry. The data was analysed using FlowJo 10.0.

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.
