Two mouse HMGB1 ELISA kits (Uscn Life Science Inc., Wuhan, China; CUSABIO, Houston, TX, USA) were used to measure the levels of HMGB1 in serum, CSF, spinal cord homogenate, and culture medium according to the manufacturers’ protocol. The levels of mouse TNF-α, IL-6, IFN-γ, IL-17A, IL-4, IL-1β, and TGF-β1 in serum, spinal cord homogenate, and culture medium were also measured by ELISA (ELISA kits: TNF-α and IL-6, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA; IFN-γ and IL-17A, San Diego, CA, USA; IL-4, IL-1β, and TGF-β1, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA). Cytokine concentrations were determined using the relevant standard curves.

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.
