Peripheral blood was collected using a heparinized tube from healthy adult volunteers and a patient of NHD. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated by Histopaque-1077 (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO) density gradient centrifugation. PBMC were resuspended with RPMI-1640 (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan), 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Endotoxin = 0.692 EU/ml; Japan Bio Serum, Hiroshima, Japan) and 1% antibiotics/antimycotic (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). PBMC were plated onto culture chambers at a density of 4 × 105 cells/ml and cultured overnight in standard culture conditions (37°C, 5% CO2). After overnight incubation, culture supernatant and non-adherent cells were removed. The adherent cells (monocytes) were cultured with RPMI-1640 Glutamax (Invitrogen) supplemented with 1% antibiotics/antimycotic and a mixture of the following candidate cytokines; recombinant human GM-CSF (10 ng/ml; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN), recombinant human IL-34 (100 ng/ml; R&D Systems) and M-CSF (10 ng/ml; Peprotec, Rocky Hill, NJ) in order to develop iMG cells. We also developed induced macrophage from human monocytes; monocytes were cultured with RPMI-1640 Glutamax supplemented with 1% antibiotics/antimycotic and recombinant human GM-CSF (10 ng/ml). All cells were cultured in standard culture conditions for up to 14 days.

Human tissue samples were dissociated using a Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch-Gladbach, Germany), according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Figure 1). The cell suspension was incubated with CD11b microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) in the MACS buffer (Miltenyi Biotec) for 15 min at 4°C. Afterward, the cells were washed, resuspended, and transferred to an LS column (Miltenyi Biotec) within a magnetic field. The positively selected (CD11b+) microglia were collected and resuspended in the Microglia Medium (ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Primary microglia (pMG) were plated on culture dishes at a density of 3 × 105 cells/mL and cultured overnight in standard culture conditions (37 °C, 5% CO2). After overnight incubation, culture supernatant and non-adherent cells were removed. Microglia were cultured in RPMI-1640 Glutamax (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 1% antibiotic/antimycotic, recombinant human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (10 ng/mL; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and recombinant human IL-34 (100 ng/mL; R&D Systems) for 5 days.

Peripheral blood was collected from patients with MMD and healthy participants into heparin tubes. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated by density gradient centrifugation in Histopaque-1077 (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, USA); PBMCs were then transferred to RPMI-1640 (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) medium containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum. PBMCs were plated in culture chambers at a density of 4 × 105 cells/mL and incubated overnight under standard culture conditions (37 °C, 5% CO2). After overnight incubation, the culture supernatant and non-adherent cells were removed. Adherent cells (monocytes) were cultured in RPMI-1640 Glutamax (Invitrogen) supplemented with 1% antibiotic/antifungal, recombinant human GM-CSF (10 ng/mL; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, USA) and recombinant human IL-34 (100 ng/mL; R&D Systems) for 14 days to generate iMG cells. Then, resting with nothing added, M1 microglia were induced by adding IFNG (100 ng/mL; R&D Systems), whereas M2 were induced with IL-4 (10 ng/mL; R&D Systems), and the two were cultured for another day19 (link),20 (link). Human iMG cells have been validated to be similar to human microglia, using RNA sequencing and cell surface markers19 (link)–24 (link).

Peripheral blood was collected using a heparinized tube from healthy volunteers and patients with fibromyalgia. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by Histopaque-1077 (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, USA) density gradient centrifugation. PBMCs were resuspended with RPMI-1640 (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan), 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Japan Bio Serum, Hiroshima, Japan), and 1% antibiotic/antimycotic (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA).

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.
