VEGF Secretion in Cyp1b1 Knockout Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
VEGF protein levels produced by Cyp1b1+/+ and Cyp1b1-/- LSEC were determined using a mouse VEGF Immunoassay kit (R&D Systems). Cells were plated at 8×105 on 60 mm tissue culture dishes in EC growth medium. After 24 h, the cells were rinsed once with serum-free DMEM and incubated with 2 ml of serum-free DMEM for another 48 h. The conditioned medium was collected, centrifuged for 5 min at 400 xg to remove cell debris, and the secreted VEGF was analyzed per manufacturer’s instructions. The amount of VEGF was determined using a standard curve generated with known amounts of VEGF in the same experiment.

VEGF Secretion Quantification in Astrocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The level of VEGF secreted was assessed using a Mouse VEGF Immunoassay kit (R&D Systems) as we previously described [18 (link)]. Astroglial cells (6 x 105) were plated on a 60 mm tissue culture dish. Once the cells had reached ~90% confluence they were rinsed with serum-free DMEM and then grown in serum-free DMEM for 2 days. The conditioned medium was then clarified. The VEGF Immunoassay was performed in triplicate for the samples and normalized to the number of cells. A standard curve was generated to assess the sample VEGF levels. The assay was repeated twice with similar results.

Quantifying Secreted VEGF in PC Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The effect of calcitriol and its solvent on secreted VEGF from PC was determined using a mouse VEGF Immunoassay kit (R&D Systems). Cells were plated at 2 × 105 on 60‐mm tissue culture dishes; the next day, medium was changed to medium containing appropriate treatment for 48 hours. Cells were then rinsed once with serum‐free DMEM and incubated in 2 mL serum‐free PC medium for 48 hours. CM was collected and centrifuged for 10 minutes at 400×g to remove the debris, and the secreted VEGF level was determined by an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). For the cell‐associated VEGF level, cell lysate was collected and used in the ELISA assay. Fifty microliters of samples was used in the assay. The assay performed in triplicate and was normalized to the number of cells. To determine the amount of VEGF, a standard VEGF curve was prepared and used to determine VEGF concentration.

The levels of VEGF were evaluated in retina extracts prepared from P15 Vdr +/+, Vdr +/-, and Vdr -/- mice using the Mouse VEGF Immunoassay Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Briefly, retinas from each mouse were dissected and placed in 0.5 mL of PBS and stored at -80°C prior to analysis. VEGF levels were determined as recommended by the supplier.

The level of VEGF produced by WT, TSP1−/−, and PEDF−/− RPE cells were determined using the Mouse VEGF Immunoassay Kit (R& D Systems). Cells (1 × 106) were plated in 60‐mm tissue culture dishes and allowed to reach 90% confluence. The cells were washed with serum‐free DMEM and incubated with 2 mL of growth medium without serum for 2 days. The CM were collected, centrifuged at 400 × g for 5 min to remove cell debris, and used for VEGF measurements as recommended by the supplier.

VEGF concentrations were determined from gastrocnemius samples from Phd2f/f and Phd2 cKO mice using a mouse VEGF Immunoassay kit (R&D system, Japan). Briefly, muscle samples were prepared from gastrocnemius homogenates in 1.5 ml of ×1 PBS. The homogenates were subjected to two freeze-thaw cycles to break the cell membranes and centrifuged for 5 min at 5000×g. The VEGF immunoassay was carried out according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

The VEGF levels were evaluated in retina extracts prepared from P13 mice under room air or OIR conditions using the Mouse VEGF Immunoassay Kit as recommended by the supplier (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Briefly, retinas from each mouse were dissected and snap frozen in 0.5 mL of PBS and stored at −80°C prior to analysis. At the time of the assay, the samples were removed from −80oC and subjected to two cycles of freeze-thaw followed by a brief sonication. The lysates were then centrifuged for 15 min at 4°C; the supernatants were transferred to a clean tube and used in the assay.

The amount of secreted VEGF produced by TSP1+/+ and TSP1−/− choroidal EC was determined using Mouse VEGF Immunoassay kit (R&D system). Cells (6×105) were plated on 60 mm tissue culture dishes and allowed to reach approximately 90% confluence. The cells were then rinsed once with serum free DMEM and incubated with 2 ml of EC growth medium without serum for 2 days. The CM was centrifuged to remove cell debris and the secreted VEGF in CM was analyzed according to manufacturer’s instruction. The amount of VEGF was determined using a standard curve generated with known amounts of VEGF in the same experiment.

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.
