Measuring Total IgE Antibody in Serum

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum was assayed for total IgE antibody production. 96 well plates were coated with purified anti-mouse IgE (2 ug/ml, Biolegend, Clone: RME-1) in 0.05 M carbonate/bicarbonate buffer and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Following coating, plates were washed in PBS-Tween and non-specific binding blocked with 3% BSA (Sigma-Aldrich) in PBS for 1 hour at room temperature. Plates were washed and diluted serum (1:10) added to the plate and incubated for 2 h at 37 °C. After washing HRP conjugated goat anti-mouse IgE (1 ug/ml; BioRad) was added to the plates for 1 h. Finally, plates were washed and developed with TMB substrate kit (BD Biosciences, Oxford, UK) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The reaction was stopped using 0.18 M H2SO4, when sufficient colour had developed. The plates were read by a MRX II microplate reader (DynexTechnologies, VA, USA) at 450 nm, with reference of 570 nm subtracted.

CCK-8 assay measured the proliferation capacity of cells. Transfected cells were seeded into 96-well culture dishes with a density of 3 × 103 cells/well for 12-h culture with or without 4Gy radiation treatment at the dose rate of 200 cGy/min using 137Cs γ-ray source (Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada). Then, cell counting kit-8 (10 μl/well, Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan) was added according to manufacturer’s protocol, followed by incubation at 37 °C for another 3 h. Absorbance at 450 nm was detected by the MRX II microplate reader (Dynex, Chantilly, VA, USA).

Quantifying Doxorubicin, Salinomycin, and PKF 118-310 Cytotoxicity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell viability was measured using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8; Dojindo; Kumamoto, Japan) following the manufacturer's instructions. HCC cells were plated into 96-well plates (3000 cells/well; 100μl media). Following overnight cultured, the media was removed and replaced with conditioned media containing different concentrations of doxorubicin (0, 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1μg/ml), salinomycin (0, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40μM) or PKF 118-310 (0, 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1μM). The cells were cultured for 48 h, then 10μl CCK-8 solution was added per well and the plates were incubated for 3 h. Absorbance was then measured at 450 nm using a MRX II microplate reader (Dynex, Chantilly, VA, USA). Relative cell viability was determined as a percentage of untreated control HCC cells.

An equal number of NSCLC cells (5×103 cells/well) was seeded in 96-well plates. Treatments, including TNF-α (20, 40 or 80 ng/ml) and Ni (1 mM as the high dose or 0.5 mM as the low dose) were administered at 37°C 24 h post seeding. Single treatment and combination treatment were used. In the combination treatment, 0.5 nM Ni was used together with 20, 40 or 80 ng/ml TNF-α to study the effects of Ni on TNF-α mediated cell death. Following the specified treatment time (6, 12, 24, 36 or 48 h), cell viability was measured by using a Cell Counting kit-8 (CCK-8; Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA). Briefly, 10 µl CCK-8 solution was added to each well and incubated for 30 min at 37°C. Absorbance was measured at 450 nm using an MRX® II microplate reader (Dynex Technologies, Chantilly, VA, USA). The final cell viability was calculated as: [Treatment optical density (OD) value-blank OD value]/(control OD value-blank OD value).

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.
