Ldh kit

Manufactured by Takara Bio
Sourced in Japan

The LDH kit is a laboratory reagent used to measure the activity of the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in biological samples. LDH is an important marker enzyme found in various tissues, and its levels can provide insights into cellular damage or disease states. The kit provides the necessary components and protocols to quantify LDH levels through a colorimetric or spectrophotometric assay.

H4 neuroglioma cells were maintained, grown and transfected with HTT exon-1 fragments with a polyQ expansions of either 25 or 104 fused to GFP as in ref. 26 (link). Twenty-four hours after HTT25Q or HTT104Q transfection, cells in 35 mm imaging dishes (Ibidi), 60 mm or 100 mm dishes (Corning) were treated with vehicle (PBS) or MGO (0.5 mM) for 16 h. Total protein lysates were obtained as in ref. 13 (link). Htt was immunoprecipitated using GFP-trap (Chromotek) according to the manufacturer instructions. Widefield fluorescent microscope Zeiss Axiovert 200 M (Carl Zeiss MicroImaging) or point scanning confocal microscope Zeiss LSM 710 (Carl Zeiss MicroImaging) were used to visualize HTT inclusions. Immunobloting was performed according to standard procedures as in ref. 13 (link) using the following antibodies: anti GFP (NeuroMab, P42212, 1:3000); anti AGEs (Cosmobio, KAL-KH-001, 1:500); anti LC3 (Nano Tools, 0260-100/LC3-2G6, 1:2000) and anti β-actin (Ambion, AM4302, 1:5000). Cytotoxicity was measured by means of the LDH kit (Clontech), following manufacturer´s instructions. Cell viability was determined using the MTT assay according to standard procedures. Evaluation of HTT aggregation profiles by filter retardation assay was performed as in ref. 62 (link). Briefly, cellulose acetate membranes retain aggregates that are not soluble in SDS (1%) and that are larger than 0.22 μm.

The LDH activity in serum was detected by LDH kit (Clontech, Mountain View, CA, USA) following the instructions. Serum diluted in saline at a volume ratio of 1:10. Total 10 µL sample was added to the microplate. The substrate buffer and the oxidized coenzyme I solution were mixed at a volume ratio of 5:1, 60 µl of the mixed solution was added to each well. The sample was thoroughly mixed and stayed in 37 °C for 15 minutes. Add 50 µl of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine solution and mix well with the sample. 37 degrees Celsius water bath for 15 minutes. 150 µl of stop reagent were added to samples and mixed well.
After standing at room temperature for 3 minutes, the wavelength was measured at 440 nm.

Enzyme activity was performed using the LDH kit (Takara- MK401) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. 1.0 × 104 cells/well were seeded in 96-well plate, peptide treatments at 5, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 µM were added and incubation was carried out for 24 h. Next, cell culture supernatants were harvested and quantified for LDH levels at 490 nm through a MultiSkan Go (Thermo Fischer Scientific, Waltham, 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.
