car2::NAT lys1-131 arg3-d4 cells were inoculated in YES medium overnight and then washed into EMM-G containing 75 mg/l of either light [L-arginine monohydrochloride (Sigma) and L-lysine monohydrochloride (Sigma)] or medium [lysine-L, 2HCl 4.4.5.5-D4 (Cat code DLM-2640, Eurisotop), arginine-L, HCl, U-13C6 99%13C (cat. no. CLM-2265, Eurisotop)] amino acids. Cells were cultured in log phase for 48 h to ensure complete incorporation of labelled amino acids into the proteome. Light-labelled cultures were treated with DMSO and medium-labelled cultures were treated with a final concentration of 25 µM Torin1 at a density of 2.04×106 cells/ml. Approximately 4.8×109 cells were harvested for each sample. After 30 min cultures were harvested by centrifugation (3000 g for 5 min), washed in 20 ml of STOP buffer (10 mM EDTA, 1 mM sodium azide, 50 mM sodium fluoride, 0.9% NaCl), followed by washing with 10 ml of ice cold ddH2O. The final pellets were then resuspended in an appropriate volume of ice cold ddH2O and dropped directly into liquid nitrogen to produce frozen cell droplets.

Bovine Serum Albumin Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BSA (catalogue no. A7638, 99+% of purity), L-arginine monohydrochloride (Arg), L-arginine amide hydrochloride (ArgEE) and L-arginine ethyl ester hydrochloride (ArgEE) were purchased from Sigma–Aldrich and used without further purification. All solutions for the experiments were prepared using deionized water obtained with Easy-Pure II RF system (Barnstead, USA). BSA samples were prepared by dissolving solid BSA in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solutions at pH 7.0. All the experiments were performed with freshly prepared solutions of BSA. BSA concentration was determined spectrophotometrically at 280 nm using the absorption coefficient Acm1% of 6.5861 (link).

Caerulein and L-Arginine Induced Pancreatitis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AP was induced to WT and miR-29a/b1–KO adult mice (6–8 weeks of age) by (a) 8 hourly i.p. injections of sterile caerulein (Sigma-Aldrich) for 2 consecutive days (50 μg/kg body weight solubilized in PBS) or by (b) 2 i.p. injections of sterile L-arginine monohydrochloride (Sigma Aldrich) prepared in PBS (8%), pH adjusted to 7.0, at a dose of 4 g/kg body weight.
Control (WT and KO) mice received an equal amount of sterile saline (PBS). caerulein/PBS-injected mice were sacrificed at different time points following the final dose: 6-hour (acute phase), 2-day or 4-day (early recovery phase), and 7-day or 10-day (late recovery phase) for serum and tissue collection. Mice injected with L-arginine/PBS were sacrificed at 72 hours after the first injection. Each group of mice consisted of 5–7 randomly selected littermates per time point/genotype/group.
Pancreatic specimens for mice fed with ethanol-rich diet and corresponding normal diet were provided by Aurelia Lugea, Cedar-Sinai Medical Center.

HCT116 (Ki-67-AID) were cultured in SILAC medium (McCoy’s 5A Media for SILAC, Thermo Fisher Scientific): light (L-lysine monohydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich) l-arginine monohydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich) (auxin) and heavy (L-lysine-13C6,15N2 hydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich) (control) respectively for at least 6 passages. The cells were treated with doxycycline (2 μg/ml) and 2 mM thymidine, 24 and 18 h before the addition of auxin 1000 μM, respectively. After the 4 h treatment with auxin, the cells were counted and mixed 1:1 (control/auxin). Nuclear isolation was performed as described in [66 ]. Cell lysate was sent for mass spectrometry analysis.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CD66+ MDSC were separated from PBMC as per kit instructions using magnetic bead isolation (EasySep™) of PE-conjugated anti-CD66 (Miltenyi Biotec). CD66− PBMC were cultured at 37°C, 5% CO2, overnight either alone or with CD66+ MDSC added back at a 1:1 ratio in custom arginine-low media: SILAC media (Sigma Aldrich) plus filter-sterilized L-arginine monohydrochloride (0.115mM, Sigma Aldrich) and filter-sterilized L-lysine hydrochloride (0.2186mM, Sigma Aldrich), 15% human serum (Sigma Aldrich), Penicillin-Streptomycin-Glutamine (0.5mg/ml, Thermo Fisher). Cells were stimulated with 1ug/ml 15mer SIVmac239 Gag peptide pool (NIH AIDS Reagent Program) or 0.4ug/ml superantigen SEB7 from Staphylococcus aureus (Sigma Aldrich) for 4 days. Duplicate control un-stimulated wells for each cell mixture (PBMC alone, PBMC with CD66+MDSC) were included for background proliferation subtraction. Proliferation was measured by ICS on day 4 post-stimulation using CD8 clone SK1 PECy7 (Biolegend), Ki67 clone B56 Alexa Flour 488 (Becton Dickinson), CD3 clone SP34-2 APC (Becton Dickinson). CD66+ MDSC-mediated suppression was measured by comparing the proliferation stimulated in the absence of CD66+ cells with the proliferation stimulated in the presence of CD66+ cells. Replicates were included for all PBMC wells, and PBMC + MDSC when MDSC yield allowed, and averaged.

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.
