Apoe3

Manufactured by R&D Systems

APOE3 is a recombinant human Apolipoprotein E3 protein produced in a mouse cell line. Apolipoprotein E is a key player in lipid metabolism and transport. APOE3 is the most common isoform of apolipoprotein E.

Resident and thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal cells, peritoneal macrophages, bone marrow-derived monocytes, brain microglial cell, and photoreceptor outer segment (POS) isolation, and MP-retinal explant co-cultures (all in serum-free X-VIVO 15 medium) were performed as previously described (Sennlaub et al, 2013 (link)). In specific experiments, cells were stimulated with recombinant human CX3CL1 or APOE3 (5 μg/ml, Leinco Technologies), APOE3 (5 μg/ml) with polymyxin B (25 μg/ml, Calbiochem), heat-denatured APOE3 (5 μg/ml, 95°C, 90 min), rat anti-IgG isotype control (100 μg/ml, R&D), rat anti-mouse CD14 (100 μg/ml, R&D), mouse anti-mouse TLR2 (100 μg/ml, Invivogen), and POS prepared as previously described (Molday et al, 1987 (link)). For in vitro apoptosis experiments, 100,000 Mos or Mϕs of the different genotypes were cultured for 24 h with or without MegaFasL (1 ng/ml, AdipoGen). TUNEL staining (In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit, Roche Diagnostics) was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions; TUNEL+ and Hoechst+ nuclei were counted automatically using the Array Scan (Thermo Fischer).

Lipoplex and LNP Transfection Assay

HeLa or HeLa-d1-eGFP cells were plated 24 h before start of incubation. For experiments with a fixed ratio of siRNA to cationic lipid, a 1,000-nM lipoplex solution was mixed (100:4:96, pmol:µl:µl, siRNA:Lipofectamine 2000:OptiMEM). Aliquots of this solution were added to cells in fresh DMEM, with 10% FCS, to obtain the desired final siRNA concentration. After incubation, cells were washed once with PBS, followed by a wash in CellScrub Wash Buffer (Genlantis) and one more PBS wash. Cells were then removed from plates by trypsin digestion, resuspended and washed twice with FACS buffer (PBS, 0.5% BSA, 10 mM HEPES). Fluorescence was analyzed on a FACSCanto (BD) or FACSAria (BD) cell analyzer using FlowJo software (Tree Star).
For LNP incubations, cells were incubated with LNPs dissolved in DMEM, 10% FCS and 1.5 µg/ml recombinant apolipoprotein E3 (ApoE3, R&D Systems). After incubation, cells were washed once with PBS, trypsinized and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above.

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.
