We assessed eicosanoid production by chondrocytes using the Prostaglandin E2 ELISA Kit – Monoclonal, Leukotriene B4 ELISA Kit and Thromboxane B2 ELISA Kit, according to the manufacturer's recommendations (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA). The concentration of each eicosanoid was determined according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

After 96 hours of infection, SH-SY5Y cells supernatant was used for leukotriene B4 measurement. The experiment was made using Cayman Chemical Leukotriene B4 ELISA kit following the recommendations of manufacturer. This experiment was performed in quintuplicate, each being repeated at least three times independently.

Quantifying LTB4 in Tumor Lysates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tumors were dissected away from surrounding fat 24 hours post-treatment and lysed in PBS using 3 mm zirconium beads (Benchmark Scientific) in the BeadBug Microtube Homogenizer (Benchmark Scientific) for 2 cycles of 45 seconds at 3000 rpm. Crude lysate was centrifuged for 15 minutes at 16000 × g at 4°C to obtain clarified lysate. Clarified lysate was deproteinized by ethanol precipitation by adding 4 volumes of 100% ethanol, incubating on ice for 5 minutes, and centrifuging for 10 minutes at 3000 × g at 4°C. Deproteinized supernatant was transferred to a new tube, ethanol was removed by evaporation at room temperature, and samples were brought to the appropriate volume in ELISA assay buffer. LTB4 content was determined with the Leukotriene B4 ELISA kit (Cayman Chemical 520111) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and read with a Victor X4 fluorescence microplate reader (PerkinElmer).

Quantifying Ly6G+ Tumor Leukotriene B4

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B16 tumors were harvested from mice 12 hours after treatment with TNF + anti-CD40 + anti-gp75 and digested with collagenase IV and DNase I as described above. Tumor samples were then split into two halves, with one half undergoing selection with the MojoSort Mouse Ly6G Selection Kit (BioLegend) to generate Ly6G+ and Ly6G-depleted tumor samples and the other half undergoing depletion with an isotype control antibody and streptavidin nanobeads (BioLegend) to generate the “all cells” condition. These selected samples were then plated in 200μl of Opti-MEM (Gibco) and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. Following the incubation, the supernatant was collected, centrifuged to remove cells and debris, and analyzed for LTB4 using the Leukotriene B4 ELISA kit (Cayman Chemical 520111) as described above.

Neutrophil Activation and Leukotriene Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow was harvested by grinding bones in a mortar and pestle and mashing through a 70 μm strainer (Falcon). Neutrophils were isolated by negative selection with the MojoSort Mouse Neutrophil Isolation Kit (BioLegend). Following isolation, neutrophils were plated in Opti-MEM (Gibco) at 1×105 cells in 100 μl and stimulated with 10 ng/ml TNF, 1 μg/ml anti-CD40, 1 μg/ml anti-gp75, and/or 50 nM recombinant mouse C5a (R&D Systems) for 30 minutes at 37°C. After 30 minutes, the supernatant was collected, centrifuged to remove cells and debris, and analyzed for LTB4 using the Leukotriene B4 ELISA kit (Cayman Chemical 520111) as described above. Additionally, stimulated neutrophils were stained for activation markers and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above.

Quantification of Inflammatory Mediators

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cytokines TNF-α (Invitrogen, San Diego, CA), IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 (all from eBioscience, San Diego, CA) were quantified using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. To measure LTB4 and PGE2 levels, competitive assays were used (Leukotriene B4 ELISA Kit and Prostaglandin E2, both from Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI), following the manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
