Monocytes from individuals heterozygous for rs257174 were purified from PBMCs by positive selection using MACS human CD14 MicroBeads (Miltenyi Biotec) according to manufacturer’s instructions. Monocytes were plated at 0.5 × 106 cells/well in 24-well tissue culture plates and then incubated with or without cell culture-grade ATP disodium salt hydrate (Sigma-Aldrich) in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 100 units/ml of penicillin and 100 μg/ml of streptomycin. For the inhibition of ATP the incubation was carried out in the presence of 10 μM of the purinergic receptor inhibitor A-438079 hydrochloride (Tocris Bioscience). Monocytes were incubated for 2 h before harvesting using cell scrapers. The treated monocytes were stored in TRIzol (Invitrogen Life Technologies) at -80°C until further analysis.

LPS-stimulated IC21 cells were co-stimulated for 1h with 3mM ATP (In vivoGen, CA), in the presence or absence of 2 µM monensin (Biolegend, CA), 5 µg/ml brefeldin A (Biolegend, CA), 200nM A438079 hydrochloride (TOCRIS, UK) or 20µM Necrosulfonamide (NSA; TOCRIS, UK) (specific inhibitors specific for P2X7R and Gasdermin D respectively). Supernatants and protein lysates were evaluated after co-stimulation.

Oscillatory Fluid Shear Stress Responses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Oscillatory fluid shear stress (OFSS, τ = ± 10 dyne/cm2) at 1 Hz was applied over a cell monolayer. The fluid flow setup consisted of μ–slide VI0.4 chamber (ibidi GmbH, Germany), Legato 200 syringe pump (KD Scientific, MA, USA) and a syringe filled with flow media (phenol free α-MEM supplemented with 1% FBS and 10mM Hepes) that is optimized for real-time imaging. Culture media in μ–slide VI0.4 chambers was first replaced with flow media followed by flow-loop set up and equilibrated under static condition for 2 min prior to OFSS. Aliquot (50 μl) of static media was collected right after 2 min equilibration time and flow conditioned media was collected at the end of 5 min OFSS exposure for measurements of cellular ATP release.
To inhibit P2X7R and Panx1 function, cells were pretreated with the P2X7R blockers A438079 hydrochloride (10 μM; TOCRIS bioscience, Bristol, United Kingdom) [41 (link), 51 (link)], A740003 (10 μM; TOCRIS) [30 (link), 52 (link)] and mefloquine (MFQ, 100nM; QU024-1, Bioblocks, San Diego, CA) [26 (link)] in flow media for 15 min prior to OFSS and during 5 min of OFSS.

Adult male C57Bl/6 mice (Jackson Laboratories; Bar Harbor, ME) were group-housed (2–5/cage) and maintained under a 12-h light/dark cycle on a regular chow diet. Studies were conducted in accordance with the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Temple University. Methamphetamine hydrochloride (METH) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). A438079 hydrochloride was purchased from Tocris Biosciences (St. Louis, MO, USA). Drugs were dissolved in 0.9% saline and injected intraperitoneally (ip). Mice were assigned randomly to each experimental group and used only once. Testing was done by an experimenter blinded to treatment conditions.

Adult male C57B1/6 mice (Jackson Laboratories; Bar Harbor, ME) were group-housed (2-5/cage), kept in a humidity- and temperature-controlled vivarium, and maintained under a 12-h light/dark cycle on a regular chow diet. Studies were conducted in accordance with the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Temple University. (±)-MDPV was synthesized according to published methods (Doylestown, PA, USA) (Gregg et al., 2015 (link)). A438079 hydrochloride was purchased from Tocris Biosciences (St. Louis, MO, USA). Drugs were dissolved in 0.9% saline and administered in a volume of 1 ml/kg subcutaneously (SC) (MDPV) or injected intraperitoneally (IP) (A438079).

Primary blood monocytes were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) heat inactivated, low endotoxin fetal calf serum (HI FCS-LE, Gibco), 1% (v/v) Penicillin-Streptomycin (P/S) and 1% (v/v) L-glutamine. Subsets of monocytes at 12,500 cells per well (50,000 cells/ml) were plated in 96 well plates and stimulated with 1 ng/ml LPS (purified from E. coli, serotype 0111:B4, TLRgrade, Enzo Life Sciences) for 24 h either in the presence or absence of 10 μM A438079 hydrochloride (P7X7R antagonist, Tocris Bioscience). 300 μM BzATP (P2X7R agonist, Sigma-Aldrich) was added for the final 20 minutes of incubation. Culture supernatants were collected and non-adherent cells removed by centrifugation. Samples were stored at −80 °C until analysis.

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.
