We selected monocyte and macrophage activation markers, as well as specific inflammatory markers that have previously been associated with NCI in ART-naïve individuals35 (link)36 (link)37 (link). Levels of selected monocyte activation and inflammatory markers were measured in CSF and blood plasma by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA): sCD163 (Trillium Diagnostics, Brewer, ME, USA); or by electrochemiluminescence multiplex assay: MCP-1, IL-8, IL-6 and TNF-α, (Meso Scale Diagnostics, Rockville, MD, USA), according to the manufacturer’s procedures.

Quantifying Inflammatory and Angiogenic Biomarkers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Inflammatory biomarkers and angiogenic biomarkers were quantified by ELISA. Custom multiplex assays were performed to measure mouse pro-inflammatory markers (IL-1β, IL-6, KC, IL-10, TNFa) and cytokines (MCP-1, MIP1α) (MesoScale Discovery, Gaithersburg, USA) in serum samples (diluted two-fold and four-fold, respectively). Mean reported intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation for these assays are all <10% and <12%, respectively. Angiogenic markers (VCAM, VEGF) (R&D Systems Inc, Minneapolis, USA) were measured in serum samples and fracture callus tissue lysates (diluted 50-fold and 20-fold for measurement of VCAM, respectively and diluted fivefold for measurement of VEGF). Mean reported intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation for these assays are all <10% and <12%, respectively.

U-Plex 10 Assay Kits for analysis of IL-1b, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p70, TNF, VEGFa, IP10, MCP1, TARC, and MDC were purchased from Meso Scale Diagnostics (MSD, USA). The assay was performed as described by the manufacturer. ELISA kits to measure MMP1 (DY901B), MIP1-a (DY270), MIP1-b (DY271), and IL-2 (DY202) were obtained from R&D Systems. The supernatants were tested according to the manufacturer's instructions in 96-well half area plates using 50 μL sample/test.

Cytokines were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay according to the manufacturer's protocol: human IL-6, IL-2, RANTES, MCP-1 (Biolegend) and TGFb1 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Supernatants were acidified and neutralized to activate latent TGFb1. Supernatants were also tested in the human RANTES 384 Tissue Culture Kit and the U-PLEX Human assay for IL-6, IL-10, MCP-1, and GM-CSF (Meso Scale Discovery, Rockville, MD).

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.
