Cytokine Profiling in Murine Lung and Serum

Blood samples were obtained by cardiac puncture and collected in heparinized tubes [36 (link),60 (link)]. BAL samples were obtained according to the technique developed in the Laboratory Immunobiotechnology of CERELA-CONICET (San Miguel de Tucuman, Argentina) [38 (link),61 (link)]. The trachea was exposed and intubated with a catheter, and then two sequential bronchoalveolar lavages were performed on each mouse by injecting sterile PBS. The recovered fluid was centrifuged for 10 min at 900× g and the fluid frozen at −70 °C for subsequent cytokine determinations. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin 10 (IL-10), IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, KC, and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) concentrations were determined in serum and BAL samples using commercial ELISA kits. IFN-γ (Mouse IFN-gamma Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 2 pg/mL), IL-10 (Mouse IL-10 Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 5.2 pg/mL), IL-1β (Mouse IL-1β DuoSet ELISA, sensitivity: 1.5 pg/mL), IL-6 (Mouse IL-6 Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 1.8 pg/mL), and IL-17 (Mouse IL-17 Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 4.7 pg/mL) from R&D Systems (USA). TNF-α (Mouse TNF alpha ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 9.1 pg/mL), MCP-1 (Mouse MCP1 ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 0.487 pg/mL), and KC (Mouse KC ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 1.95 pg/mL) kits were obtained from Abcam (Cambridge, UK).

IFN-γ ELISPOT Assay for Splenocyte Responses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
IFN-γ ELISPOT assay was performed by culturing 2 × 105 splenocytes per well in IFN-γ ELISPOT plates (MAHAS45; Millipore, Molsheim, France). Five peptide epitopes of hSGCA with the highest probability of presentation by H-2Kb MHC class I molecules were identified by the Immune Epitope Database (http://www.iedb.org) and synthesized by GeneCust. Cells were stimulated either with one of these peptides or with 1 μM hSGCA-GST recombinant protein or with SIINFEKL peptide. As a positive control, cells were stimulated with 5 μg/mL Concanavalin A (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). After 24 h of culture at 37°C, plates were washed and the secretion of IFN-γ was revealed with a biotinylated anti-IFN-γ antibody (eBioscience, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), Streptavidin-Alkaline Phosphatase (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany), and BCIP/NBT substrate (Mabtech, Les Ulis, France). Spots were counted using an AID reader (Cepheid Benelux, Leuven, Belgium) and the AID ELISpot Reader v6.0 software. Spot-forming units (SFUs) per million cells were represented after subtraction of background values obtained with unstimulated splenocytes.
IFN-γ secreted by splenocytes stimulated with the recombinant protein hSGCA-GST was measured with the Mouse IFN-gamma Quantikine ELISA Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA).

Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples were obtained as described previously [10 (link)]. Briefly, the trachea was exposed and intubated with a catheter, and 2 sequential lavages were performed in each mouse by injecting sterile PBS. The recovered fluid was centrifuged and frozen at −70 °C for subsequent analyses. Albumin content, a measure to quantitate increased permeability of the bronchoalveolar–capillary barrier, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, an indicator of general cytotoxicity, were determined in the acellular BAL fluid as described previously [10 (link),18 (link)].
Interferon (IFN)-β (Mouse IFN-beta ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 15.5 pg/mL), IFN-γ (Mouse IFN-gamma Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 2 pg/mL) and IL-10 (Mouse IL-10 Quantikine ELISA Kit, sensitivity: 5.2 pg/mL) concentrations in BAL samples were measured with commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) technique kits following the manufacturer’s recommendations (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA).

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.
