Synovial fluid mediators were determined by screening pro-inflammatory cytokines on three SF using a membrane-based Human Cytokine Array kit (ARY005B, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA). The chemiluminescent signals were visualized with a ChemiDoc XRS+ imaging system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) and analyzed using Image Lab 5.0. IL-6 and IFN-γ levels were quantified by ELISA according to the manufacturer's instructions (R&D Systems). Concentrations of MCP-1 levels were determined by Cytometric Bead Array (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA, USA). Data was acquired on an LSRII cytometer (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using FCAP array v3 software (BD Biosciences). Quantification of IL-1β, IL-23, IL-12p70, IL-12p40, CCL17, CXCL10, IL-10, and IL-1RA in SF was performed by the LegendPlex Human M1/M2 Macrophage Panel (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA). Data was acquired on a MACSQUANT Q10 cytometer (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) and analyzed using Legendplex Data Analysis Software (BioLegend).

Blood was collected from tail tip at 6 weeks of age, 5 days prior to the commencement of behavioral testing. Approximately, 350 μl of whole blood was collected into EDTA‐coated tubes (Microvette; Brand), which were centrifuged for 10‐min (8000 rpm, 4°C) within 30 min of collection and plasma separated and stored at −80°C until use. Following exposure to ABA conditions, and including 7 days of ad libitum food access and body weight recovery to >100% baseline to ensure that effects of susceptibility to ABA were not confounded by the acute effects of starvation, blood was collected via cardiac puncture. A custom rat multianalyte LEGENDplex bead‐based immunoassay kit was used to examine cytokine concentrations in plasma samples (LEGENDplex; BioLegend) that targeted six cytokines concurrently (IL‐6, IL‐10, IL‐4, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, RANTES). These analytes were selected based on their previously reported elevation in human AN patients and/or ABA mice. Plasma samples were screened with the LEGENDplex assay kit as per manufacturer's instructions, and the readout measurement acquired using a Fortessa X‐20 flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson [BD]). Data were analyzed using LEGENDplex Data Analysis Software (v8.0; BioLegend).

Supernatants were collected and assessed for cytokine content with a LEGENDplex human NK/CD8 cell panel (BioLegend, cat 740267) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Allowing quantification of TNFα, soluble Fas ligand (sFasL), IFNγ, granzyme A, granzyme B and perforin secreted by the NK cells. Samples were acquired using a FACS Canto II and data analyzed using LEGENDplex Data analysis software (BioLegend).

Cytokine and Antibody Profiling in Malaria

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cytokines and chemokines (CXCL10 (IP-10), IFN-γ, IFN-β, IFN-α, IL-10, IL-12p40, IL-15, IL-18, IL-6, and TNF-α) were measured in the plasma by Legendplex according to manufacturer’s protocol (Biolegend, San Diego, CA). Plasma samples were collected at the indicated days and were stored in −80°C until analysis. All data were acquired on an LSR II Fortessa flow cytometer using FACSDiva software, version 8 (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). The concentration of each analyte is determined with cytometric data based on a standard curve using the Legendplex data analysis software (Biolegend, San Diego, CA). P. chabaudi AJ-specific IgG was evaluated in plasma at indicated days by ELISA, as described previously [5 (link)]. Plates were coated with P. chabaudi AJ parasite lysate overnight at 4°C in PBS with 0.05% Sodium Azide. Plates were blocked with 1% BSA, 0.3% Tween 20, 0.05% Sodium Azide and then sera were incubated. Bound antibody was detected using Alkaline Phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (Southern Biotech, Birmingham, AL). The reaction was revealed with a p-Nitrophenyl phosphate disodium salt (Sigma, USA) solution (1mg/ml) in diethanolamine buffer. Plates were analyzed with an Omega plate reader (FLUOstar Omega BMG LABTECH Inc, Durham, NC, USA).

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.
