Cultured cells were detached with a trypsin–ethylenediami-netetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution (0.25%) and seeded into 24-well plates at a density of 15×103 A549 cells/well and 2×104 LL/2 cells/well. After incubation for 24 hours under culture conditions, the cells were treated with either free Dox (aqueous solution), blank (Dox-unloaded) PBCA NPs, or Dox-loaded PBCA NPs in increasing drug-equivalent concentrations from 0.01 to 10 μM. After an incubation time of 48 hours, a modified sulforhodamine B (SRB) protocol was followed.25 (link) The cells were washed three times with PBS, and 300 μL of 10% trichloroacetic acid was used to fix the cells (20 minutes at 4°C). Then, the cells were washed three times with distilled water and left to dry before 300 μL of SRB was added again. Incubation under mechanical stirring was continued for 20 minutes, and the excess SRB was removed by the addition of a 1% acetic acid solution. Then, the cells were left to dry. Finally, 200 μL of Trizma® (10 mM, pH 10.5; Sigma-Aldrich) was used for dye resuspension. The optical density (OD) of SRB was measured at 492 nm (Titertek® Multiskan colorimeter; Flow Laboratories Ltd, Oldham, UK) and analyzed with Ascent software version 2.6 (Thermo Labsystems, Helsinki, Finland).

Freshly excised livers were snap-frozen and then crushed in liquid nitrogen. A MPO assay was performed on these samples. Briefly, pulverized liver tissue was added to a non-denaturing lysis buffer (TRIZMA, Sigma, 10% glycerol, and 0.2% Tween), and samples were exposed to three cycles of freeze-thawing, and then centrifuged to collect the lysate. The MPO reaction was carried out by first mixing 20 μl of liver lysate with 20 μl assay buffer (0.167 mg/ml o-dianisidine-HCL, 50 mM Na2HPO4, pH 5.4) in a 96-well plate, and then adding 200 μl of development solution (0.1% H2O2, 50 mM Na2HPO4, pH 5.4). Absorbance was measured at 450 nm every 15 s. MPO activity is expressed as the change in absorbance per minute per milligram of liver lysate protein (ΔmOD/min/mg protein). Immunohistochemical staining for MPO was also performed from excised liver tissue.

LPS was prepared as described by Westphal and Jann [37 ]. Briefly, the bacteriawere inoculated in 250 mL of a Luria Bertani (LB) broth and incubated for 24 h at 30°C on a shaker at 250 rpm. The culture was then centrifuged at 10000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, resuspended in 16.6 mL of TAE buffer (40 mM Tris-acetate, pH.8.5; 2 mM EDTA), and then mixed with 33.2 mL alkaline solution (containing 3 g of SDS, 0.6 g of Trizma (Sigma), and 160 mL of 2 N NaOH in 1000 mL of water). The suspension was heated at 55 to 60°C for 70 min and then mixed with phenol and chloroform in the ratio of 1 : 1 (V/V). The mixture was spun at 10 000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C and the supernatant obtained was mixed with 33.2 mL of water and 8.3 mL of 3 M sodium acetate buffer (pH 5.2). LPS was precipitated by adding twice the volume of ethanol. The precipitate was dissolved in 33.2 mL of 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 (Sigma), and 100 mM sodium acetate, mixed well, and was then reprecipitated with twice the volume of ethanol. The combined water extract was dialyzed for 2–4 days against distilled water and then freeze-dried.

Example 3

This example demonstrates a synthesis of Compound 1 in an embodiment of the invention.

A solution of 2-hydroxy-4-[[2-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy]acetyl]amino] benzoic acid (10 mmol) was dissolved in THF/EtOH (1:1) (250 mL), and the resulting solution was cooled to 0° C. in an ice bath. Once the solution cooled, the 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol (TRIZMA™, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, Mo.) (10 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 90 minutes at 0° C. Upon completion, the solvent was removed with care taken to keep the mixture at or below room temperature. The resulting residue was triturated with pentanes, and was placed under high vacuum at 0° C. for 2 hours and then backfilled with argon. The resulting white solid (quantitative yield) was stored in the freezer (−20° C.) until ready to use.

To quantify the methylation level of Reprimo, quantitative methylation-specific PCR (qMSP) was performed. Amplification reactions were carried out in triplicate in a volume of 20 μL that contained 1 μL of bisulfite-modified DNA; 300 nM of each primer; 50 nM probe (Table 1); 0.375 U platinum Taq polymerase (Invitrogen); 100 μM of dNTPs; 100 nM ROX dye reference (Invitrogen); 8.3 mM ammonium sulfate; 33.5 mM Trizma (Sigma, St. Louis, MO); 3.35 mM magnesium chloride; 5 mM mercaptoethanol; and 0.05 % DMSO [30 (link)]. Amplifications were carried out using the following profile: 95 °C for 10 min followed by 40 cycles at 95 °C for 30 s, 59 °C for 30 s and 72 °C for 30 s. Amplification reactions were carried out in 96-well plates in the Mx3000P QPCR System (Stratagene). Each plate included DNA samples, positive control (100 % methylated DNA, Zymo Research) and water blanks. The relative level of methylated DNA for RPRM was determined as a ratio of methylation-specific PCR-amplified gene to β-actin (reference gene) and then multiplied by 1000 for easier tabulation (average value of triplicates of the study gene divided by the average value of triplicates of β-actin × 1000) [30 (link), 31 (link)].

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.
