Custom Mouse Inflammation Panel LEGENDplex (BioLegend, LEGENDplex™) protocol was followed according to the manufacturer's recommendations, and data was acquired using an Attune NxT Flow Cytometer. Pilot hind paw fluid samples from all experimental conditions were collected and used to determine sample dilution factors and to screen for 19 cytokines using capture beads targeting: GM-CSF, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A, IL-22, IL-23, IL-33, TNF-α, IFN-γ, CCL2, CXCL10, CCL4, CCL5, and LIF. We consistently detected only IL-1α in hind paw fluid in the capsaicin model. After initial screening, we selected 13 cytokines for ongoing analyses based on consistent detection in pilot studies and published literature indicating their potential role in neuroinflammation in skin. Biolegend LEGENDplex Data Analysis Software Suite (Qognit) was used to determine analyte mean fluorescence intensities and calculate concentrations based on concurrently-run standard curves (Supplementary File S3).

Cytokine Profiling by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Supernatants from 96-well plates were aliquoted and stored at -20C. Cytokines were quantified by the Human/Mouse Th1/Th2/Th17 Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) (BD Biosciences) using a FACSCanto II (BD Biosciences), analyzed by FCAP Array v3.0 (BD Biosciences). Alternatively, we used the LEGENDplex Human Inflammation Panel 1 (13plex) (740808, BioLegend) with the Attune NxT Flow Cytometer. Cytokine assays analyzed by FlowJo/v9.
For intracellular cytokine detection, the IFN-γ/IL-10 Secretion Assay Detection Kit (Miltenyi, #130-090-761) was used on live cells after 72h.

Multiplex Cytokine Profiling of TLR3/MDA5 Activation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used a synthetic analog of dsRNA, poly(I:C), as a nonspecific agonist of TLR3 and MDA5/RIG-I. SV40-fibroblast cells were activated in 24-well plates, at a density of 100,000 cells/well, by incubation for 24 h with poly(I:C) at concentrations of 1, 5 and 25 μg/mL. Cells were stimulated with 25 μg/ml poly(I:C) in the presence of Lipofectamine 2000 to activate MDA5/RIG-I signaling. After 24 h, cell supernatants were used for the LEGENDplex multiplex bead assay (BioLegend, #740003 and #740984), then analyzed by flow cytometry on an Attune NxT Flow Cytometer, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Data were analyzed with LEGENDplex Cloud-based Data Analysis Software (BioLegend), and presented in raw values and heatmaps. The heatmaps are generated using relative values for each sample as normalized to the maximum range of production levels of each cytokine among all samples (X-Min)/(Max-Min). Min: minimum production level; Max: maximum production level; X: the production level of a given cytokine in a given sample (96 ).

Lung Chemokine Profiling in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lung tissue ∼50 mg was homogenized in PBS (500 μl) containing Halt protease inhibitor (Thermo Scientific) and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 min. Lung homogenates (supernatant) were stored at −80°C until use. Chemokine analysis in lung homogenates was performed using the LEGENDplex mouse proinflammatory chemokine panel (BioLegend) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Samples were run on Attune NxT flow cytometer and data were analyzed using the LEGENDplex data analysis suite (BioLegend).

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.
