Epithelial organoids or fibroblasts derived from a total of 13 biopsies were prepared for FACS as described [6 (link)]. To isolate CD271 (nerve growth factor receptor)low/mucin 1 (MUC1)high, luminal epithelial cells, suspended cells from organoids were incubated for 30 minutes at 4 °C in the presence of CD271-APC (ME20.4, 1:50, Cedarlane Laboratories) and MUC1 (115D8, 1:50, Monosan) followed by AF488 (IgG2b, 1:500, Life Technologies). Fibroblasts were incubated with CD105-AF488 (SN6, 1:25, AbD Serotec) and CD26 (202–36, 1:200, Abcam), followed by AF647 (IgG2b, 1:500). Controls were without primary antibody. 1 μg/ml propidium iodide (Invitrogen) or Fixable Viability Stain 780 (1:1000, BD Biosciences) was added 10 minutes prior to analysis and sorting (FACSAria I and II; BD Biosciences).

IgG subclass of anti-FVIII antibodies was assessed using an in-house established ELISA assay. Briefly, 96-well plates (Corning) were coated overnight with 1 µg/mL rhFVIII in PBS at room temperature. Plates were blocked using 1% bovine serum albumin (Sigma-Aldrich) in PBS. Standards or plasma samples were diluted in 1% bovine serum albumin in PBS. Anti-FVIII IgG isotype-specific antibodies were detected by anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase–conjugated IgG1, IgG2a (both from Southern Biotech, Birmingham, AL), IgG2b, or IgG2c (both from Abcam) and 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine substrate solution (Perbio Science). Absorbance was detected at 450 nm using an ELISA reader (Tecan). The concentration of anti-FVIII isotype–specific antibodies was estimated from a standard curve obtained using serial dilutions of mouse anti-human FVIII IgG1 (Merck Millipore), anti-human FVIII IgG2a (Thermo Fisher Scientific) starting at 50 ng/mL, or mouse anti-FVIII reference plasma starting at 50 arbitrary units per milliliter.

Anti-spike antibody titers were measured using ELISA as previously described19 (link). Briefly, 96-well plates were coated with 1 μg/ml recombinant spike protein (ancestral spike; SPN-C52H9, Omicron BA.1 spike; SPN-C52Hz, Omicron BA.2 spike; SPN-C5223, Omicron BA.5 spike; SPN-C522e, Acro Biosystems) and kept at 4 ℃ overnight. After blocking with 5% skim milk PBS for 2 h at RT, the diluted sera (ranging from 10- to 31,250-fold dilution with 5% skim milk PBS) were added to the wells and incubated at 4 °C overnight. The following day, the wells were washed with PBS-T and incubated with HRP-conjugated anti-IgG antibody (GE Healthcare) for 3 h at RT. The wells were developed using the peroxidase chromogenic substrate 3,3′-5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB, Sigma) for 30 min at RT. The reaction was quenched by adding sulfuric acid (0.5 N). The absorbance of the samples in the wells was measured immediately at 450 nm using a microplate reader (Bio-Rad). The half-maximum antibody titer of the sample was determined from the highest absorbance in the dilution range (GraphPad Prism 8 software). For IgG subclass determination, anti-IgG1 (Abcam), IgG2a (Abcam), IgG2b (Abcam), and IgG2c (Southern Biotech) antibodies were used as the secondary antibodies.

Specific IgG and IgA titers were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using serum, BAL, or nasal samples from each mouse (n = 5), as previously described [37 (link)]. The plates were coated overnight at 4°C with the M2e peptides (5 μg/ml) or purified viruses (2 μg/ml) in PBS pH 7.2. The synthetic peptides used were M2es (SLLTEVETPTRSEWECRCSDSSD: M2e from A/California/09/07(H1N1)) or M2eh (SLLTEVETPIRNEWGCRCNDSSD: M2e from a consensus of human influenza A viruses). The purified viruses were A/Aichi/2/68(H3N2), A/California/07/09 (H1N1pdm09), A/California/1/66 (H2N2), A/Chicken/Kurgan/05/05 RG (H5N1), or A/Shanghai/2/2013(H7N9)-PR8-IDCDC H7N9. Polyclonal HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, or IgG3 antibodies (Abcam, UK) were used. To detect IgA, polyclonal HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgA (Abcam, UK) was used. TMB (BD Bioscience, USA) was used as substrate; the incubation time was 15 min. The optical density (OD) was measured using an i-Mark microplate reader (Bio-Rad) at a wavelength of 450 nm. The maximal serum dilution that had an optical density at least double the mean value of the blank was taken as the titer.

Treated and non-treated MΦ, were detached, and re-suspended in staining medium (DMEM with sodium azide). Immuno-labeling of bovine (preliminary analysis) and murine cell surface markers was performed by incubating cells with 15 μg/mL fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) conjugated antibodies to CD40 (Abcam), CD86 and CD80 (Thermo-Scientific) and isotype matched control mAbs IgG2a and IgG2b (Abcam) for 30 min on ice. After incubation, cells were washed three times with DMEM media containing 0.01% sodium azide and re-suspended in 400 μL 1X PBS (pH-7.4) containing 1 μg/mL propidium iodide, for excluding dead cells, and analyzed by flow cytometry with parameters set to 10,000 events, filter setting 530/30 nm wavelength (FACS Caliber) using acquisition software BD CellQuest (BD Biosciences) and the analysis program FlowJo 9.8.5 (TreeStar) at digital imaging core facility (College of Veterinary Medicine, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX).

96‐well plates were coated with LPSKpO2 extracted from K. pneumoniae stain 355 (10 µg well−1), incubated them at 4 °C overnight, washed them three times with wash buffer (PBS with 0.05% Tween 20) and dried them. Plates were blocked with blocking buffer (wash buffer with 5% skim milk powder; 200 µL well−1) at 37 °C for 2 h. After drying the plates, they were incubated in serially diluted serum (100 µL well−1) from each immunized mouse at 37 °C for 1 h. Next, plates were washed another three times and dried. Diluted HRP‐linked goat‐anti‐mouse antibodies (IgG, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3 [Abcam, Cambridge, UK]) (100 µL well−1) were added, and plates were incubated for another 1 h at 37 °C. After the washing step, a Soluble TMB Kit (CWBio, Beijing, China) was used to initiate a color‐producing reaction and measured the absorbance of each well at an OD of 450 nm.

Serum antibody specific for mis-disordered truncated tau (151–391/2N4R) was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Ninety-six-well plates (Dynex Technologies, Chantilly, VA, USA) were coated with 250 ng of recombinant full-length tau isoform 2N4R or pathological truncated tau (151–391/2N4R) per well at 4 °C overnight, then washed twice with PBS and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin (in 0.05%PBS with Tween-20) for 2 hours at 37 °C. After blocking, the plates were incubated with serial dilutions of the serum (100 μl/well in twofold or fivefold dilution steps) for 1 hour at 37 °C. The bound serum antibodies were detected with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated goat antimouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) (Zhongshan Golden Bridge Biotechnology Co., Beijing, China) and chromogenic substrate 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
To determine the isotypes of the specific antibodies produced in response to vaccine, mis-disordered truncated tau (151–391/2N4R) was coated onto ELISA plates, and sera from immunized mice were diluted at 1:6000 and added to the plate, followed by the addition of HRP-conjugated IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK).

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.
