Effector Cell Cytotoxicity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The effect of perforin or serine protease inhibitors on the cytotoxic activity of each effector cell population (CD8 + cells and CD8 -cells) was examined using concanamycin A (CMA, Sigma, St. Louis MO) or 3,4-dichloroisocoumarin (DCI, Sigma, St. Louis MO, USA), respectively. Each effector cell was separated from the gill and kidney of ginbuna carp as described above. Effector cells were treated with CMA at two concentrations (1 and 0.5 µM) for 2 h or DCI at two concentrations (40 and 20 µM) for 3 h at 22°C. The concentrations of these inhibitors were determined according to previous studies, and untreated effector cells were used as a control (Toda et al., 2011a (Toda et al., , 2011c)) . The inhibitortreated effector cells (9.0 × 10 4 cells) were then co-cultured with 300 I. multifiliis cells per well in 96-well plates in the presence of inhibitors for 2 h at 22°C. Dead parasites were then counted in each treated group at all inhibitor concentrations, and the percentage of dead cells was then calculated using the above formula, accounting for negative controls. The percentage of killing activity was calculated as described.

Human neutrophils were stimulated with the wild type CFT073 or CFT073 mutant bacteria for 3 or 6 h at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 1 or 10 and incubated at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Neutrophils were also pre-incubated with caspase-1/4 inhibitor AC-YVAD-CHO (10 µM, Enzo Life Sciences, NY, USA), caspase-3 inhibitor AC-DEVD-CHO (10 µM, Enzo Life Sciences), NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 (2 µM, Avistron Chemistry Services, Cornwall, UK), JNK inhibitor SP600125 (10 µM, InSolutionT M JNK Inhibitor II, Calbiochem, USA), p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 (10 µM, Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Heidelberg, Germany), ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 (10 µM, Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc), NF-κB inhibitor BAY 11–7082 (5 µM, Enzo Life Sciences), serine protease inhibitor 3,4-Dichloroisocoumarin (DCI, 100 µM, Merck Millipore, MA, USA), cathepsin B inhibitor CA074 (100 µM, Apexbio Technology LLC, Houston, USA), actin polymerization inhibitor cytochalasin D (Cyto D, 10 µg/ml, Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc), receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) inhibitor GSK-872 (10 µM, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, USA) or DMSO as vehicle control, for 1 h prior to CFT073 stimulation for 3 or 6 h at MOI 1 or MOI 1015 (link). mRNA, proteins and supernatants were collected and kept at − 80 °C until further analysis.

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.
