For inhibition experiments, cells were preincubated in the presence of 25 ng/mL GM‐CSF for 30 minutes with the following inhibitors: diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) 20 µM, dinitrophenol (DNP) 750 µM, cytochalasin D 10 µg/mL, oligomycin 10 µM, 2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose 2 mM, EDTA 5 mM, rotenone 10 µM, antimycin 5 µM, ciclosporin 0,5 ng/mL, leupeptin 20 µM, MG‐115 1 µM (all Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), RO‐31‐8220 100 nM, SB203580 10 µM, R406 1 µM, rapamycin 100 nM, wortmannin and chloroquine 10 nM, Nec‐1s 50 µM (all Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA), bafilomycin A 500 nM, GSK484 1 mM, chymostatin 1 µM, z‐VAD 10 µM, GSK872 100 nM (Cayman Chemicals, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) LDC7559 1 µM (MedChemExpress, NJ, USA), and necrosulfonamid 5 µM (Merck Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA). These concentrations had been optimized in pilot‐experiments. Inhibitors by themselves did not induce DNA‐release from neutrophils (data not shown).

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.
