Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For all experiments involving inhibitors, PBMCs were preincubated with designated inhibitors for 2 h at 37 °C before the addition of nanoparticles. Internalization inhibitor concentrations used were as follows: bafilomycin A1, 100 nM; cytochalasin D, 5 μM; and all scavenger receptor inhibitors and controls, 50 μg/mL (all internalization inhibitors listed above were from Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO). ODN 2088 was used at 10 μM (Miltenyi Biotec GmbH, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Treated PBMCs were then tested for nanoparticle uptake or IFN induction.
To study the individual scavenger receptor inhibitors’ interactions with the assemblies, AF488-labeled NANPs (10 nM) (with and without L2K) were incubated with the various scavenger receptor inhibitors (50 μg/mL) for 30 min at room temperature. Samples were analyzed on nondenaturing native PAGE (8%, 37.5:1).

pDCs and cDCs were cultured separately in 96-well flat-bottom half-area plates (Corning) at a density of 5 × 104 per well in RPMI 1640 with 5% of human serum for 48 h at 37°C with 5% of CO2, in the absence of stimuli or in the presence of R848 (InvivoGen; 100 ng/ml), SK-1 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae; MOI: 0.1–1–5–10 SK-1 cells/cDC or pDC). For the SK-1 nucleic acid stimulation experiments, the RNA and DNA (0.2 μg) were extracted from SK-1 as previously described (16 (link)), and their quality and purity were verified by agarose gel electrophoresis and using a Nanodrop 2000 spectrophotometer (Thermofisher; Supplementary Figure S6). SK-1 RNA and SK-1 DNA samples were used for pDC stimulation pre-treated with Dotap (Merck; 10 μl/μg of nucleic acids). Pre-treatment of nucleic acids with ezDNase or RNase III (Thermofisher) was performed to degrade dsDNA and dsRNA, respectively, while S1 nuclease (Thermofisher) was used to degrade ssDNA and ssRNA. For the TLR inhibition experiments, cDCs and pDCs were pre-treated for 30 min with TLR7/8 (Miltenyi Biotec ODN 2087) or TLR7/9 (Miltenyi Biotec ODN 2088) inhibitors (1 μM) and then stimulated with SK-1 (MOI 5).

Glial Cell Response to NMOSD mtDNA Stimulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mixed glial cells were stimulated with DNA fractions containing abundant mtDNA. Specifically, we used DNA fractions from 100 μL CSF from NMOSD or OND patients, or the DNA fraction released from AQP4-expressing HEK293 cells stimulated with sera from NMOSD patients or healthy control subjects. After 48 h of incubation, supernatants were collected and centrifuged at 2000×g at 4 °C for 10 min.
PBMCs were pretreated with a TLR9 inhibitor, ODN2088 (4 μM, Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch-Gladbach, Germany) and a NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inhibitor, and MCC950 (0.1 μM, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) for 1 h and then treated with the DNA fraction from AQP4-expressing HEK293 cells stimulated with sera from NMOSD patients. After 10 h of incubation, supernatants were collected. IL-1β in supernatants was measured using the Cytometric Bead Array (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

Naive splenic B cells were purified using the B cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotech) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Purified B cells (purity 90%-92%) were then incubated either alone, with different ratios of parasites, or with TLR agonists: 3 mg/ml CpG (InvivoGen), 5 mg/ml R837 (InvivoGen), 3 mg/ml poly (I:C) (Amersham), and 10 mg/ml LPS (Sigma). B cells were also incubated with 1 mg/ml ODN2088 (Miltenyi) and a TLR7 and 9 inhibitor (Stunz et al., 2002) . Cells were cultured in supplemented DMEM (Gibco, Invitrogen). For cytokine mRNA expression analysis, confocal microscopy, and immunoblots, cells were incubated for 8 or 24 hr at 37 C.
Quantitative Real-Time PCR RNA from isolated B cells from in vitro or in vivo experiments was extracted using the RNeasy mini kit (QIAGEN) as described by the manufacturer. Reverse transcription was carried out using the iScript cDNA synthesis kit (Bio-Rad) following the manufacturer's protocol. Real-time PCR analysis was performed using iTaq Universal SYBR Green Supermix (Bio-Rad) . The IL-1a, IL-1b, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-a, IFN-b, and HPRT genes were amplified using primers whose sequences are described below. All PCRs were carried out with the Stratagene mx3005p real-time PCR system. Data were normalized to HPRT and expressed as fold increase to naive controls.

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.
