Lymph Node Cytokine Profiling in Leishmaniasis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ear draining lymph nodes from each mouse were carefully and aseptically collected, macerated individually using a cell strainer and the cell suspensions were centrifuged at 400 x g for 10 minutes at 4°C. Cells were counted, adjusted to a concentration of 1x106 cells/well and cultured in complete RPMI [RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% inactivated fetal bovine serum (Sigma-aldrich), 2 mM/ml-glutamine, 100 µl/ml penicillin, 100 µg/ml streptomycin (Sigma-aldrich)] stimulated or not with live stationary-phase L. braziliensis promastigotes at a ratio 1:5 parasites for 72h at 37°C under 5% CO2. Supernatants were collected and levels of IL-10, IFN-γ, IL-4 and TGF-β were determined by ELISA using a commercial kit (Ebioscience).

Culturing Human Cervical Cancer Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The HPV-16-positive human cervical cancer cell lines, BOKU and SKG-IIIa, and the human immortalized cell line, 293, were purchased from the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources Cell Bank (Osaka, Japan). The HPV-16-positive human cervical cancer cell line, SiHa, was purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA). All cell lines were authenticated by the above-mentioned cell banks by means of short-tandem repeat-polymerase chain reaction (pCR) profiling. The cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/F12 (life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) containing 10% inactivated fetal bovine serum (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (life Technologies) in 5% carbon dioxide at 37°C.

T. cruzi Survival under Blue LED

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Pure cell cultures of T. cruzi (Y and CL strains) were maintained at 25°C in liver infusion tryptose (LIT) broth medium (Becton-Dickinson, NJ, EUA) supplemented with 10% (v/v) inactivated fetal bovine serum (Sigma-Aldrich, San Luis, MS, EUA). These cultures were exposed to blue LED light (460 nm and 40 µW/cm2) for 5 days, 6 h per day, at 24°C. The parasites were counted in 10 µL volume every day for quantification and analysis of their survival using the Neubauer chamber. All the experiments were repeated twice.

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.
