Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vitreous samples were centrifuged for 15 min at 12,000 rpm to separate the cellular contents, aliquoted at 100 μl, frozen at − 80 °C, and then used for Aβ, t-tau, and p-tau181 measurements. Briefly, assays were run per the manufacturer’s instructions and in duplicate for beta-amyloid 1–40 and 1–42 (Meso Scale Discovery (MSD), Rockville, MD, #K15200E-2), tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (p-tau181), and t-tau (MSD #K15121D-2), using capturing antibody AT270 against p-tau181 (Thermo Scientific #MN1050) and T46 antibody against total tau as the detecting antibody (Thermo Scientific). Neuroinflammatory cytokines were measured using Neuroinflammation Panel 1 (K15210G, MSD). Samples were diluted 1:2 for pro-inflammatory panel 1 (IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-13, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α), cytokine panel 1 (IL-12/IL-23p40, IL-15, IL-16, IL-17A, IL-1α, IL-5, IL-7, TNF-β, VEGF-A), and angiogenesis panel 1 (basic FGF, VEGFR-1/Flt-1, Tie-2, VEGF-C, VEGF-D), or 1:5 for vascular injury panel 2 (SAA, CRP, VCAM-1, ICAM-1). Sulfo-tag-conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody (MSD) was used for signal detection by the MSD platform, and an MSD SECTOR S 600 Imager was used to measure the analyte levels.

Quantifying Alzheimer's Biomarkers in Vitreous

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vitreous samples were centrifuged for 15min at 12,000 rpm to separate the cellular contents, aliquoted at 100 μL, and frozen at −80°C. Protein measurements were performed using the multi-detection SPECTOR 6000 Imager (Meso Scale Discovery (MSD), Rockville, MD) for immunoassay. A 100 μL volume of vitreous fluid aliquot was diluted 1:1 with 1% Blocker A (MSD #R3BA 4) in wash buffer for a total volume of 200 μL.
Samples were subsequently spun down at 17,000 g and 4°C for 15 min, and the supernatant was applied to the immunoassay. Assays were run per the manufacturer’s instructions and in duplicate. Standard immunoassay was used for beta-amyloid 1–40 and 1–42 (MSD #K15200E-2) and tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (pTau181) together with total tau (MSD #K15121D-2), using capturing antibody AT270 against pTau181 (Thermo Scientific #MN1050) and T46 antibody against total tau as the detecting antibody (Thermo Scientific). Sulfo-tag conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody (MSD) was used for signal detection by the MSD platform, and an MSD SECTOR S 600 Imager was used to measure analyte levels.

Quantitative Protein Biomarkers Measurement

NfL concentrations were measured using the NF-light™ kit on a Single molecule array (Simoa) HD-X Analyzer (Quanterix, Billerica, MA, USA), following the recommendations by the manufacturer. Plasma p-tau181 levels were measured using an in house Simoa assay as previously described [10 (link)]. Briefly, an AT270 mouse monoclonal antibody (MN1050; Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) was coupled to paramagnetic beads (103,207; Quanterix) and used for capture. As the detector, we used the anti-tau mouse monoclonal antibody Tau12 (806,502; BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), conjugated to biotin (A3959; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), while GSK-3β phosphorylated full-length recombinant tau441 (TO8–50FN; SignalChem, Vancouver, BC, Canada) was used as calibrator. Fluorescent signals were converted to average enzyme per bead numbers as described [19 (link)], and specimen concentrations extrapolated from four-parametric logistic curves generated with known calibrator concentrations.

Immunofluorescence staining for anti-Tau 5 (1:200, ab3931, Abcam), anti-pTau AT8 (1:200, Cat no. MN1020, Invitrogen), anti-pTau AT180 (1:200, Cat no. MN1040, Invitrogen), anti-pTau PHF-1 (1:200, Cat no. MN1050, Invitrogen), anti-LC3 (1:200, Cat no. M152-3, MBL), anti-P62 (1:200, Cat no. PM045, MBL) and anti-Beclin (1:200, Cat no. PD017, MBL) was performed in Tau-BiFC mice models29 . Fluorescence was observed by confocal microscopy (Nikon A1R, JAPAN). Pre-absorption with excess target protein or omission of primary antibody was used to demonstrate antibody specificity and remove background generated by the detection assay. Co-localization and quantitative assessment of images were conducted using NIH Image J v1.44 software.

Blood samples were collected and processed according to the ADNI protocol (Kang et al., 2015 (link)). Plasma p-tau181 concentrations were measured at the Clinical Neurochemistry Laboratory, University of Gothenburg (Mölndal, Sweden) using an assay developed in-house on a Simoa HD-X (Quanterix) instrument, as described previously in detail (Karikari et al., 2020 (link)). In brief, the AT270 mouse monoclonal antibody (MN1050; Invitrogen) specific for the threonine-181 phosphorylation site, coupled to paramagnetic beads (103 207; Quanterix) was used for capture and the anti-tau mouse monoclonal antibody Tau12 (806 502; BioLegend), which binds the N-terminal epitope 6-QEFEVMEDHAGT-18 on human tau protein, for detection. All of the available samples were analysed in a single batch. We identified four participants (0.4%) with outlier values of plasma p-tau181 levels that were discarded from subsequent analyses (Supplementary Fig. 1). Longitudinal blood sampling was performed approximately every year, over a median follow-up time of 2.9 years in 938 subjects.

Non-fasting blood was drawn from study participants and processed for plasma extraction before storage at -80°C until use. All biomarkers were measured with evaluators blinded to clinical information at the Sahlgrenska Academy at University of Gothenburg in Sweden on the Simoa HD-1 or HD-X platforms (Quanterix, Billerica, MA, USA). Measurements of plasma P-tau181 with the AT270 mouse monoclonal antibody (MN1050; Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) specific for the threonine-181 phosphorylation site was based on an ultrasensitive Simoa immunoassay as described previously-16 with satisfactory cross-site and test-retest reliabilities (Supplementary Data S2). Plasma Aβ42, Aβ40, and total tau (T-tau) were measured using the Neurology 3-plex A assay kit from Quanterix (Billerica, MA, USA). Plasma P-tau181 was not available for six participants, and plasma T-tau, Aβ42, and Aβ40 were not available for three participants due to limited sample availability.

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.
