Peritoneal macrophages (PM) were collected from Hsf1+/+ and Hsf1−/− mice by peritoneal lavage with Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline as described previously (8 (link)). Thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal cells were obtained from animals 3 days after intraperitoneal injection of 3 mL Thioglycolate broth (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Macrophages were further purified by adherence to culture dishes for 24 h and identified using anti-HSF1 antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) before use. After 24 h of in vitro culture, peritoneal macrophages were treated with 1,000 ng/mL of LPS for 8 h. RAW264.7 cells (mouse leukemia cells of monocyte macrophage) were purchased from the Shanghai Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). The cells were cultured with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) plus 10% fetal bovine serum under 5% CO2 conditions at 37°C. RAW264.7 cells were treated with 1,000 ng/mL of LPS for 8 h.

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.
