Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total tau and phosphorylated (p) tau (Threonine 181, T181) were analyzed by ELISA assay (KHB0041 and KHO0631, respectively; Invitrogen; Italy) on cell lysates. Briefly, cell lysates were obtained using a specific lysis buffer prepared adding to RIPA Buffer 1X protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche; Italy), 1% Triton X-100 (Sigma), 1% sodium orthovanadate (Sigma; UK), and 1% PMSF (Sigma). Cell lysates were quantified by the Bradford assay (Biorad; Italy), and then, 20 μg of the total lysate was diluted in 50 or 100 μl of the specific ELISA diluent and seeded into pre-coated wells. The presence of both total tau and ptau (T181) in the samples was revealed by colorimetric reaction and read at 450 nm, and concentration determined through interpolation to standard curve and reported as picograms per milliliter.

To analyze protein secretion under the serum-deprived condition, the culture medium was changed to Opti-MEM and samples were incubated at 37 °C under 5% CO2 for 12 h. The culture medium was collected and centrifuged at 3000g for 10 min at 4 °C, and the supernatant was collected and stored at −80 °C. The proteins levels of Aβ1-40 (27713, IBL), Aβ1-42 (27711, IBL), phospho-tau (pT181) (KHO0631, Invitrogen), and total-tau (KHB0041, Invitrogen) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) according to manufacturer’s instructions. BCA analysis was performed with the same samples, and the data were normalized by the total protein content. Levels of Aβs secreted from E3par and E4iso iCOs were further measured using xMAP technology (Bioplex 200 systems). The utilized protocol is also described in our previous paper66 (link).

Amyloid-β Solubility and Tau Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Amyloid-β (Aβ) solubility was determined in soluble fractions from, (1) 0.2% diethylamine (DEA), (2) radioimmuniprecipitation assay buffer (RIPA), and (3) 70% formic acid (FA), using sequential isolation conditions, respectively, as previously described (Murphy et al, 2007; Niedowicz et al, 2013; 2014). Aβ was quantified with a sandwich ELISA, as previously described (Murphy et al, 2007; Niedowicz et al, 2013; 2014). Aβ40 and Aβ42 were measured in the DEA and RIPA fractions using commercially available kits (Invitrogen, KHB3481 and KHB3544, respectively), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To detect total Aβ in the FA fraction, capture antibody Ab42.5 (against Aβ1-16; 0.5 μg / well) was used, followed by detection antibody: 0.25 μg/mL of biotinylated 4G8 (against Aβ17-24; BioLegend, San Diego, CA), as we had not previously tested the commercial kits using FA. Aβ levels were normalized to total protein concentrations loaded per well, as determined by bicinchoninic acid assay (Pierce). Phosphorylated tau pT181 (KHO0631) and total tau (KHB0041) was measured in the RIPA fraction (Invitrogen). Personnel performing the assays were blinded to mouse treatment condition.

Amyloid-β and Tau-pT181 levels in blood specimens were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods. The ELISA kits for Aβ40 (KHB3481), Aβ42 (KHB3441), and Tau-pT181 proteins (KHO0631) were obtained from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA, USA). All blood specimens were collected between 6:00 and 9:00 a.m. in a fasted state. Heparin anticoagulant blood was collected by a vacuum tube and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min for plasma separation. The samples were then aliquoted and stored at −80 °C. ELISA assays were conducted within one week at three repeats for each specimen.

The homogenates were thawed and mixed well, and then centrifuged at 14,000×g for 20 min at 25°C. Subsequently, the supernatants (90μl) were filtered with Sephadex G-10 (GE Healthcare Life Science) set in a Bio-Spin Chromatography Column (Bio-Rad Laboratories) by centrifugation at 800×g for 1 min at 25°C, to remove guanidine HCl. After the total protein concentration was determined using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (ThermoFisher Scientific), total tau (t-tau) and phosphorylated tau (pT181) were measured in triplicate using commercially available kits (KHB0042 and KHO0631, respectively; ThermoFisher Scientific), according to manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
