Quantifying Mouse Immunoglobulins and Autoantibodies

100 µl of mouse blood samples were collected from living mice by a transverse incision through the major tail vein, and incubated in an Eppendorf tube containing heparin, the samples were centrifuged for 15min at 1400 rpm at 4°C. For the anti-IgM and anti-IgG ELISAs, 96-well plates (NUNC, maxisorp) were coated with polyclonal anti-mouse IgM or IgG antibody (SouthernBiotech) and blocked with buffer containing 1% BSA. Dilutions of anti-mouse IgM/IgG (SouthernBiotech) were used as standard. The concentration of IgM and IgG in the supernatants was determined by detection with alkaline-phosphatase-labeled anti-mouse IgM or IgG (Southern Biotech), respectively. P-nitrophenylphosphate (Genaxxon) in diethylamine buffer was added and data were acquired at 405 nm using a Multiskan FC ELISA plate reader (Thermo Scientific). To determine the content of autoreactive anti-dsDNA specific antibodies, concentration-adjusted cell culture supernatants were applied to plates coated with calf thymus DNA (Rockland Immunochemicals).

Mature splenic B cells from the indicated genotypes were cultured in the presence of 2.5 μg/mL LPS from Escherichia coli (0111:B4; Sigma-Aldrich) for 1.5 days and subjected to retroviral transduction either with pMIG (EV) or pMIG-Blimp-1, respectively. The supernatants were collected 5 days after transduction and used for α-IgM and α-dsDNA-IgM-ELISA.
For the α-IgM and α-IgG ELISAs 96-well plates (NUNC, maxisorp) were coated with polyclonal α-mouse IgM or IgG antibody (SouthernBiotech) and blocked with buffer containing 1% BSA. Dilutions of α-mouse IgM/IgG (SouthernBiotech) were used as standard. The concentration of IgM and IgG in the supernatants was determined by detection with alkaline-phosphatase-labeled α-mouse IgM or IgG (Southern Biotech), respectively. P-nitrophenylphosphate (Genaxxon) in diethylamine buffer was added and data were acquired at 405 nm using a Multiskan FC ELISA plate reader (Thermo Scientific). To determine the content of autoreactive IgM antibodies, IgM-concentration-adjusted cell culture supernatants were applied to plates coated with calf thymus DNA (Rockland Immunochemicals). The detection and development was performed as described for the α-IgM ELISA.

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.
