Recombinant human LL-37 and hBD-3 were purchased from Invivogen (Toulouse, France; Catalog No. 154947-66-7) and PeproTech (Cranbury, NJ, USA; Catalog No. 500-P241), respectively. A 1 mg/mL stock solution of LL-37 and 500 µg/mL of hBD-3 was prepared by dissolving lyophilized synthetic peptides in sterile water, then aliquoted and frozen at −80 °C until use. LL-37 and hBD-3 cytotoxicity on NHEK was determined following incubation for 48 h with concentrations ranging from 1 to 20 µg/mL using the cell proliferation kit II (XTT, Roche Diagnostics, Meylan, France; Catalog No. 11465015001), as previously described [37 (link)]. For LDH assay, supernatants were collected after 24 h and mixed with 500 µL of PBS—0.1% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint-Quentin-Fallavier, France; Catalog No. 806,552 and 9036-19-5). Cells were lysed with 1 mL of PBS—0.1% Triton X-100 and sonicated for 30 s. The LDH released was measured with the Cobas (Roche) analyzer and viability was calculated, yielding the ratio between the LDH released in supernatants and the total LDH measured in both supernatants and cell lysates.

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.
