BALs were collected at 18 hpi by flushing the lungs of euthanized and intubated mice with 0.5 mL PBS (3 times) containing an anti-protease cocktail (Complete from Roche Diagnostics) and 5 mM EDTA. The collected fluids were centrifuged and both the pellets and the supernatants were snap-frozen and stored at −80 °C. Protein concentration in the supernatants was measured using the BCA kit from Thermo Scientific. IL-6 levels were measured using the mouse IL-6 ELISA kit from BioLegend. To evaluate the hemoglobin contents, pellets were thawed, resuspended in water and centrifuged. The supernatants were read at OD560. Dosages were performed once in triplicate.

(Soluble) TNF-α, TGF-β1, IL-6, IL-6R and TNFR-1 in the medium of BV2 cells or in the supernatants of brain tissue homogenates (see Supplementary Materials) were quantified using mouse TNF-α ELISA kit (430901, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), human/mouse TGF-β ELISA kit (88-8350-88, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA), mouse IL-6 ELISA kit (431301, BioLegend, USA), mouse IL-6R ELISA Kit (RAB0314, Sigma) and Mouse/Rat TNF R-1 Quantikine ELISA Kit (MRT10, R&D Systems), using manufacturer’s instructions. Due to the strong inhibition of constitutive IL-6 release from BV2 microglial cell by pCS (1, 5, 10 and 50 μM) treatment, IL-6 concentrations in the medium after exposure to pCS (1, 5,10 and 50 μM) were under the detection limit that was set as ‘0′.

Criterion XT Bis-Tris Gels (4–12% polyacrylamide, BioRad: Hercules, CA, USA), XT MES Buffer (BioRad) and Trans-Blot® Turbo™ Midi Transfer Packs were used for electrophoresis and immunoblotting (n = 2–4) on PVDF membranes. Phospho-AMPKα (Thr172; 2531) and Phospho-AKT (Ser473; 4060) antibodies were sourced from Cell Signaling Technology: Danvers, MA, USA. Images were obtained with a ChemiDoc + XRS and immunoblots were quantified with ImageLab analysis software (BioRad). IL-6 was quantified in the conditioned media using a commercially available mouse IL-6 ELISA kit (n = 10; 431301, BioLegend: San Diego, CA, USA).

Evaluating DEX's Anti-inflammatory Activity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The biological activity of DEX was evaluated in vitro using a test system involving the LPS treatment of DC2.4 dendritic cells. To validate the system, DC2.4 cells were first plated onto a 24-well tissue culture plate at 5 × 104 cells per well and cultured overnight with or without LPS at a concentration of 1 μg/ml. Then, supernatant was collected, and the concentration of IL-6 was measured using a mouse IL-6 ELISA kit (BioLegend) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. To compare free DEX and VLA-DEX-NP, the two formulations were first added to the culture medium at final drug concentrations of 0.01, 0.1, and 1 μM, followed by 2 hours of incubation. For free DEX, 1000× stock solutions were prepared at 0.01, 0.1, and 1 mM in dimethyl sulfoxide. Then, the cells were treated with LPS overnight before measuring the concentration of IL-6 in the supernatant. To test the effect of empty nanoparticles, either PLGA cores or VLA-NP at a final concentration of 1 μg/ml were first incubated with the cells for 2 hours, followed by an overnight incubation either with or without LPS before measuring IL-6 levels.

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.
