Bio plex multiplex cytokine assay

Manufactured by Bio-Rad
Sourced in United States

The Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay is a laboratory instrument used for the simultaneous quantification of multiple cytokines in a single sample. The core function of this product is to detect and measure the concentrations of various cytokines, which are signaling proteins involved in immune system regulation and cell-to-cell communication.

Cytokine Profiling in CSF

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After lumbar puncture, CSF was centrifuged and immediately stored at −80 °C until analysed using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. CSF concentrations of IL-1β were calculated according to a standard curve generated for the specific target and expressed as picograms per milliliter (pg/mL).

Serum cytokine levels were measured in rats treated with or without Ex-4 for 6 weeks. Levels of IL-1β, MCP-1, IL-6, IL-10 and TNFα were simultaneously measured using the Bio-Plex Multiplex Cytokine Assay (Bio–Rad Laboratories) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Samples below detection limit were assigned a value corresponding to half of the sensitivity of the assay (Assay sensitivity: IL-1β, 2pg/ml; MCP-1, 3pg/ml; IL-6, 10 pg/ml and TNFα, 3 pg/ml).

CSF was collected by LP. Immediately after LP, CSF was centrifuged and stored at −80°C until being analyzed using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. CSF detectability of the following molecules has been examined: interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-15, IL17, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa), IFNg, macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1α/CCL3, MIP-1β/CCL4, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1/CCL2, interferon gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10)/CXCL10, eotaxin, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), vascular-endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and Regulated on Activation, Normal T Cell Expressed and Secreted (RANTES)/CCL5. CSF delectability of all molecules tested in our CIS and RRMS patients, separated in three groups according to DMTs (IFN-beta, GA, DF) used, is presented in the Supplemental Table.

Cerebrospinal Fluid IL-10 Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In 73 patients CSF concentrations of IL-10 were analyzed. CSF was collected at the time of diagnosis, during hospitalization, by lumbar puncture (LP). CSF samples were stored at −80°C and later analyzed using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, United States). CSF IL-10 levels were determined according to a standard curve generated for the specific target and expressed as picograms/milliliter (pg/mL). Samples were analyzed in triplicate.

Blood serum was analyzed by the Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The assay was read using a Luminex 100 (Austin, TX) and analyzed using a Bio-Plex Manager software. The mean concentration of cytokines (IL-4, IL-13, and LIF) in supernatants from OVA-stimulated cells over the unstimulated cells (background) was then calculated.

Investigating Cytokine Responses to CP4 Microvesicles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine whether CP4 MVs could induce inflammation reactions in vitro, RAW264.7 cells were seeded in 24-well cell culture plates to 80% confluence. After washing once with DPBS, cells were exposed to 1 µg/ml, 5 µg/ml or 10 µg/ml MVs in fresh medium for 24 h at 37°C. Supernatants were collected then and the inflammation cytokines of both experimental and control (medium alone) were determined by Bio-Plex Multiplex Cytokine Assay (Bio-Rad). The serum samples from mice were used to determine the cytokine production in vivo.

The CSF was collected by lumbar puncture (LP). Of note, 2 ml was used for the biochemical analyses, including total cell count and lactate levels. The presence of oligoclonal bands (OCB) was assessed. After LP, CSF was centrifuged and stored at −80°C. Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory molecules were analyzed using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). The CSF molecules examined were included as follows: interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, IL-1ra, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), IP-10, interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1)/CCL2, regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), macrophage inflammatory protein 1-alpha (MIP-1α)/CCL3. All samples were analyzed in triplicate. Concentrations were expressed as picograms/milliliters.

CSF was centrifuged and immediately stored at −80°C until analyzed using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Concentrations of IL-1β (171-A11127; Bio-Rad Laboratories) were calculated according to a standard curve generated for each target and expressed in picograms per milliliter. When the cytokine concentrations were below the detection threshold, they were assumed to be 0 pg/ml.

CSF was collected at the time of diagnosis, during hospitalization, by lumbar puncture (LP) for medical purpose. No corticosteroids or disease modifying therapies were administered before LP. Cell-free CSF samples were stored at −80 °C and later analyzed [6 (link)]. Briefly, the CSF miR-142-3p levels were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany) and normalized to miR-204-5p [6 (link)]. Samples were analyzed in duplicate. CSF concentrations of IL-1β were determined by using a Bio-Plex multiplex cytokine assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA) and expressed in picograms/milliliter (pg/mL) according to the standard curve. Samples were analyzed in triplicate.

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.
