Netosis assay kit

Manufactured by Cayman Chemical
Sourced in United States

The NETosis assay kit is a laboratory tool designed to detect and quantify the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in biological samples. NETs are web-like structures released by neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, as part of the immune response. The kit provides the necessary components and protocols to measure NET formation, which is a key process in various physiological and pathological conditions.

2x106 mock or X4 HIV-1 infected HLACs were co-cultured with 1x106 PMNs for 3 and 24h. Mock HLACs co-cultured with PMNs in the presence of PMA (20nM, Sigma-Aldrich) served as a positive control. NE activity was analyzed by the NETosis Assay Kit (Cayman) according to the manufacturer‘s instructions. In brief, after the indicated incubation time the supernatant was aspirated and the cells were washed twice by the addition of 200μl prewarmed NET Assay Buffer followed by the addition of 200μl S7 Nuclease for 15min at 37°C. 200μl of the supernatant was transferred to a 96-well flat bottom plate containing 4μl of EDTA Assay Reagent solution and centrifuged for 5min at 300 g. To inactivate HIV-1, 180μl of the supernatant was transferred to a new 96-well flat bottom plate containing 20μl of 5% Triton X-100 and incubated for 10min at room temperature. For the preparation of the assay, 100μl of standard and sample were added to a new 96-well flat bottom plate, 100μl of the 1:30 diluted Elastase substrate was added, the plate was covered and incubated for 1-2h at 37°C. The cover was removed and the absorbance was analyzed at 405nm using the Infinite 200 PRO plate reader (Tecan).

Quantification of NETosis Induced by F. alocis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Cayman Chemical NETosis assay kit, which allowed for the detection of extracellular NE present on NETs and distinguish it from the NE release due to granule exocytosis, was used to quantify NETs induced by F. alocis. Neutrophils (1 × 106 cells/condition) were seeded into a 24-well plate in NETs assay media (RPMI + 0.5% BSA + 1 M CaCl2) and incubated for 30 min at 37°C with 5% CO2 to allow cells to settle. After 30 min incubation, neutrophils were left unstimulated, or challenged with non-opsonized or opsonized F. alocis for different time points. Phagocytosis was synchronized by centrifugation at 600 g at 14 C. The assay was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The ability of extracellular NE, present in the supernatants, to cleave the synthetic substrate was measured at 405 nm using a SpectraMax Soft Max Pro 5.4 spectrophotometer. NE values are expressed as mU/ml.

NET formation was quantified using NETosis Assay Kit (Cayman Chemical #601010) following manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, neutrophils were infected with log phase cultures of P. aeruginosa at an MOI of 1:50 in a 24 well plate. The plate was incubated at 37°C for 4h, and free elastase was washed from the well. NETs were dissolved with DNase and NET-associated elastase was collected and quantified by comparing neutrophil elastase activity to a known standard. Three biological replicates were tested in duplicate.

Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) Assay

Purified neutrophils (1 × 106) in 0.5 mL of RPMI base cell culture medium supplemented with calcium chloride (1 M) and 1% bovine serum albumin were incubated and pre-treated with 0.25 or 25 µg/mL of DBV for 60 min in a 24-well plate. Afterwards, the cells were stimulated with PMA (100 nM) for 4 h at 37 °C. After stimulation, neutrophils were washed to remove soluble neutrophil elastase that is not NET-associated. Next, 500 µL of nuclease (15 U/mL) was added to each well, incubated for 15 min at 37 °C and then inactivated by EDTA (500 mM). Supernatants were collected, centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 10 min and analyzed by NETosis Assay Kit as a release of neutrophil elastase (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA), as indicated by the manufacturer’s instructions.

In vitro NET formation by neutrophils was assessed by microscopy and by ELISA. For microscopy analysis, neutrophils (105 cells) from healthy donors were plated on poly-L-lysine-coated coverslips. Cells were allowed to settle for 1h, then treated with 50mM ethanol or untreated, then stimulated with 0.2nM PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) for 4h. Cells were then fixed in 25 formol-saline for 10min at room temperature, then stained with DAPI and visualized by fluorescent microscopy for extracellular DNA. Quantitative neutrophil elastase, which forms part of NETs, was measured using the Cayman Chemical NETosis assay kit (cat #: 601010, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

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.
