Human monocytes were purified from the whole blood of de-identified healthy donors using counter-current centrifugal elutriation by the University of Nebraska Medical Center Elutriation Core Facility. Monocytes were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI)-1640 medium (Cytiva) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% L-glutamine (200 mM; Corning), 1% HEPES (Cytiva), 1% antibiotic-antimycotic solution (Cytiva, USA), 50 µM beta-mercaptoethanol, and 100 ng/mL human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (BioLegend) for 7 days at 37°C to promote macrophage maturation.

Donors medication presented in Table S1. Primary MSCs were cultured in AdvanceSTEM Mesenchymal Stem Cell Media containing a 10% AdvanceSTEM Supplement (HyClone, Cytiva, Marlborough, MA, USA), 1% antibiotic–antimycotic solution (HyClone, Cytiva, Marlborough, MA, USA) at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 incubator (Binder, Tuttlingen, Germany, CB210). Cells were passaged at 70–80% confluency using Versen solution (Paneco, Moscow, Russia) and HyQTase solution (HyClone, Cytiva, Marlborough, MA, 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.
