Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bone marrow–derived neutrophils were resuspended in RPMI 1640 with Hepes and allowed to adhere at 37°C in 5% CO2 to glass-bottom plates (previously coated with poly-l-lysine) for 20 min before stimulation with LPS (10 μg/ml) from Klebsiella pneumoniae (Sigma-Aldrich). After 2 hours, cells were fixed in 2% (v/v) paraformaldehyde. Cells were then stained for citrullinated histone 3 as described below.

Rodent Model of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rodent model of ACLF utilised in this study was as described previously47 (link). Eight groups of adult male Sprague–Dawley rats (RRID:RGD_10395233) (n = 12 per group) were studied 4-weeks after either sham-operation or BDL. Animals were treated either with saline or recombinant human alkaline phosphatase (recAP; gifted AMPharma, Netherlands) − 1000 U/kg intraperitoneal on four consecutive days before LPS injection (days 25–28 after BDL). The last recAP injection was performed 3-hours before ACLF induction with LPS derived from Klebsiella pneumoniae (Sigma, UK) (0.3 mg/kg/hr, intravenously) or saline 0.9% (154 mmol sodium chloride (NaCl), vehicle). The animals in each group were terminated by exsanguination under general anaesthesia with isoflurane (Piramal Healthcare, USA) 3 h after LPS administration. The groups were as described in Supplementary Fig. 1. Hemodynamic measurements including PP and RBF was performed.

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.
