Monocyte Superoxide Production Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Purified monocytes were co-cultured for 40 min with E. coli at a monocyte: E. coli ratio of 1:100. The cell suspension was then mixed with Diogenes reagent (National Diagnostics, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions and superoxide was quantified by recording luminescence (relative light units) using a luminometer (FLUOstar OPTIMA, BMG Labtech) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Measuring Oxidant Production in HL-60 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Differentiated HL-60 cells were collected and washed twice with Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS; Invitrogen). Cells (2×106/mL, 50 µL) were treated for 15 minutes at 37°C with or without 10 µM DPI chloride (Sigma-Aldrich). Cells were stimulated with 1 µM fMLP. Extracellular O2 production was measured as SOD-inhibitable chemiluminescence detected using Diogenes reagent (National Diagnostics, Atlanta, GA, USA) using a 96-well plate Luminoskan luminometer (Thermo, Waltham, MA, USA). Extracellular H2O2 was measured by a luminol/HRP-based chemiluminescence assay. Briefly, cells (2×106/mL, 50 µL) were collected as above and treated with or without 10 µM DPI (37°C for ten minutes). An equal volume of HBSS containing 1 mM luminol and 20 U/mL HRP was added following DPI treatment. Luminescence was estimated as above. Superoxide production and H2O2 production was presented as integrated luminescence value (relative light unit) [70] (link).

Kinetic ROS detection by chemiluminescence

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Kinetic ROS detection measurements were performed by chemiluminescence in 96-well plates at 37 °C over a 45-min time course using a Luminoskan luminometer (Dharmacon) as previously described (Boudreau et al, 2009 (link)). Briefly, ∼2.5 × 104 cells were collected by trypsinisation and washed twice with Hank's balanced salt solution buffer (Invitrogen) by centrifugation. SOD3-sensitive superoxide production was measured using Diogenes reagent (National Diagnostics, Atlanta, GA, USA). Extracellular H2O2 was measured by a luminol/HRP-based chemiluminescence assay.

Microplate-based Superoxide and Calcium Signaling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All measurements were performed with a CLARIOstar Plus Microplate Reader (BMG LABTECH) at 37 °C. Black chimney, clear 96-well plates (Greiner 655090) were used for Ca2+ measurements, and white chimney, solid bottom, 96-well plates (Greiner 655083) were used for superoxide measurements. The stimuli were injected or pipetted into the wells, and the final volume was 100 μl/well in all cases.
Superoxide measurements were performed using circa 40,000 cells/well in suspension in a 1:1 mixture of H-medium (145 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 0.8 mM CaCl2, 5 mM glucose, 10 mM HEPES) and Diogenes reagent (National Diagnostics). The extracellular superoxide signal was detected in luminescence mode.
Ca2+ measurements were performed on confluent, adherent cell cultures in H-medium. The cells were loaded with 2 μM Fura-2 AM dye (Life Technologies) for 30 min at 37 °C in the dark, then washed with H-medium. Fura-2 was excited at 335 and 380 nm, and respective emission signals were detected at 510 nm, and their ratio (335/380) was analyzed.

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.
