At 48 h after the last OVA challenge, mice were anesthetized with isoflurane, and blood samples were obtained from the abdominal aorta and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min. Total IgE level in serum was determined by ELISA using purified rat anti-mouse IgE and biotinylated rat anti-mouse IgE as capture and detection antibodies, respectively (both from BD Pharmingen, San Diego, CA, USA). Standards were prepared using purified mouse IgE κ isotype control (BD Pharmingen). Optical density was determined by measuring the absorbance at 450 nm.

C5a was measured in BAL fluid by ELISA. Purified rat anti-mouse C5a (clone I52–1486) was used as capture antibody, purified recombinant mouse C5a as standard and biotinylated rat anti-mouse C5a (clone I52–278) as detection antibody (all from BD Biosciences). Cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-13), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and elastase were measured by ELISA (R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA). Plasma total IgE was determined using rat-anti-mouse IgE as a capture antibody, purified mouse IgE as a standard, and biotinylated rat-anti-mouse IgE as detection (all from BD Biosciences) as described [24 (link)]. Plasma HDM-specific IgG1 was determined using HDM as capture and biotinylated rat-anti-mouse IgG1 as detection (BD Biosciences). BAL fluid IgM was determined as described [24 (link)], using rat-anti-mouse IgM as capture antibody, purified mouse IgM as standard and biotinylated goat-anti-mouse IgM (all from BD Biosciences) as detection. Total protein in BAL fluid was measured using Bio-Rad protein assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Veenendaal, Netherlands).

6- to 8-week-old mice were intraperitoneally injected with 50 μg ovalbumin (OVA) and 1 mg Rehydrogel (Reheis) in sterile saline. Mice were then challenged intranasally on days 12, 13, 14 and 15 with 10 μg OVA under isofluorane anesthesia. Mice were sacrificed 24 hours following the final challenge and serum collected by cardiac puncture. IgE was captured on plates coated with rat anti-mouse IgE (BD Biosciences), with total IgE detected by biotinylated rat anti-mouse IgE (BD Biosciences) and streptavidin-HRP (Biosource), and OVA-specific IgE detected with biotinylated OVA and streptavidin-HRP (Biosource).

Quantification of Allergen-Specific Antibodies

Concentrations of IL-5 and IL-13 in lung extract were measured using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (R&D Systems, Abingdon, UK). OVA-specific serum IgE, IgG1, and IgG2c levels were determined by ELISA. OVA (10 µg/ml) was coated onto 96-multiwell plates. Serum samples were diluted 1/10,000 for IgG1, 1/1,000 for IgG2c and 1/20 for IgE. Biotinylated rat anti-mouse IgE (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) was applied, followed by Streptavidin-HRP (BD Biosciences) to quantify OVA-specific serum IgE. Peroxidase-conjugated rat anti-mouse IgG1 and IgG2c (Southern-Biotech, Birmingham, AL, USA) were used to quantify OVA-specific serum IgG1 and IgG2c respectively.

Quantifying Serum IgE Levels in Mice

To assess immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, the mice were bled via cardiac puncture 24 hours after the last HDM challenge. Serum was obtained by centrifugation of blood samples at 9300×g for 5 minutes. The supernatant was removed and stored at −80°C. The total IgE was measured by ELISA. Briefly, ELISA plates (Affymetrix eBioscience, San Diego, CA, US) were coated overnight with 2 µg/mL purified anti-mouse IgE (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, US). Plates were washed with 0.05% Tween 20 (Sigma-Aldrich, NSW, AU) in PBS between each step. Plates were blocked with 1% BSA in PBS before addition of purified mouse IgE isotype standard monoclonal antibody (BD Biosciences) or mouse serum. IgE was detected using biotinylated rat anti-mouse IgE (BD Biosciences) at concentration of 2 µg/mL. Streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, NSW, AU) was added followed by 2,2′ –azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (Hoffmann-La Roche, Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 0.1% hydrogen peroxide (Chem-Supply, Adelaide, AU) to produce a colour reaction. This reaction was stopped by adding 20% wt/vol SDS (Bio-Scientific, Sydney, AU). Plates were read spectrophotometri-cally at an absorbance of 405nm (Microplate AutoReader EL311; BioTek, Winooski, VT, US), and data were analysed using linear regression analysis in AssayZap (Biosoft, Cambridge, UK).

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.
