Kwik-Diff stain (9990700) was from Thermo Scientific Shandon. Reagents for priming neutrophils were LPS (E. coli-derived, Sigma, L3024), mouse TNFα (R&D Systems, 410-MT-010), and mouse GM-CSF (Peprotech, 315-03). Reagents for stimulating neutrophils included f-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP, Sigma, F3506), C5a (Sigma, C5788), and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, Sigma, P1585). Antibodies for western blotting were Rac1 (clone 23A8, Millipore, 05-389, 1:3000), Rac2 (Millipore, 07-604, 1:5,000), Irak4 (Cell Signaling Technology, 4363, 1:500), MyD88 (Cell Signaling Technology, 4283, 1:500), TLR4 (Cell Signaling Technology, 14358, 1:500), and Trif (Abcam, ab13810, 1:1,000). Antibodies for LPS/TLR4 pathway analysis were from Cell Signaling Technology: phospho-p38 Mapk Thr180/Tyr182 (9211, 1:1000), p38 Mapk (9212, 1:1000), phospho-p42/44 Erk Thr202/Tyr204 (9106, 1:1000), p42/44 Erk (9102, 1:1000), phospho-Akt Thr308 (9275, 1:5000), and Akt (9272, 1:1000). Antibodies for other applications are listed in the relevant sections below. Fc block (553141) was from BD Biosciences.

Quantification of PI3Kγ Subunits in Neutrophils

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Neutrophils (1x106, Fig. 1; 0.5x106, fig. S5) prepared at room temperature as described above were resuspended in SDS loading buffer and freeze-thawed and sonicated. Samples were resolved using SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) at 150V and transferred overnight at 35V. For quantification of PI3Kγ subunits, they were immunoblotted with either rabbit α-p101 (Cell Signaling), rabbit α-p84 ((27 (link))), rabbit α-p110γ and p67phox (Millipore), or mouse α-βcop (a kind gift from N. Ktistakis, Babraham Institute). For p42/44 ERK and PKB activation, bone marrow neutrophils (BMNs) were incubated for 3 min at 37°C prior to fMLP stimulation (or vehicle) for 1 min and stopped with cold PBS. Cell lysates were immunoblotted for P-PKB–Ser473 (Cell Signaling, 1:2500), P-42/44 ERK (Cell Signaling, 1:1000), PKB (Cell Signalling, 1:1000), ERK (Cell Signalling, 1:1000), βcop (gift from N. Ktistakis, 1:250), p47phox (Upstate, 1:4000) and p67phox (Millipore, 1:2000). Signal was detected by ECL and bands were quantified by using ImageJ or Image Studio Lite. Where indicated, anti-p67phox was used as a loading control to normalize for neutrophil input between different bone marrow derived neutrophil preparations.

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.
