Multiplex Analysis of Rat Synovial Inflammation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rats were euthanized via CO2 inhalation at three days or twenty-one days post-surgery for both the naïve group and the MMT surgery group. Synovial fluid was collected by first injecting 100 μl of saline intra-articularly using a 30 gauge insulin syringe, followed by aspirating approximately 50 to 100 μl of the synovial fluid and saline using the same syringe. Synovial fluid was analyzed using the Quantibody® Rat Inflammation Array 1, a multiplex ELISA kit that quantitatively measured 10 rat inflammatory factors: IFNγ, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and TNFα (RayBiotech, Norcross, GA, USA).

The maxillae of each mouse collected at the endpoint were defleshed and soaked in toluidine blue solution. Stained maxillae were photographed using a dissection microscope (Nikon), and total alveolar bone loss was calculated by measuring the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to the alveolar bone crest decalcification (ABC) distances on the buccal side of each root [41 (link)]. Some maxillae were fixed in 10% formaldehyde and then 10% EDTA solution at 4 °C for 3 to 4 weeks. The decalcified maxillae samples were then embedded in paraffin and sectioned (7-μm thickness) for TRAP and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. For immunofluorescence staining, the decalcified maxillae samples were embedded in OCT compound (Fisher Scientific) and sectioned (6 μm thickness) using a cryostat. The expression of Sema4D was monitored using biotin-conjugated anti-Sema4D-mAb, followed by avidin conjugated to AlexaFluor 488. Gingival tissue homogenates were obtained from the gingival tissue of each mouse at the endpoint, and Sema4D, TNF-α, RANKL, OPG, IL-10 and IGF-1 production in the homogenate was analyzed using an ELISA kit purchased from the following sources: Sema4D: RayBiotech; TNF-α, RANKL, OPG, IL-10 and IGF-1: R&D Systems.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits were used to quantify levels of netrin-1 (MEIMIAN, China), IL-17 (MEIMIAN, China) and IL-10 (RayBiotech, United States) in duplicate wells containing serum and CSF samples according to the manufacturers’ protocols. Blood was collected via a right ventricular puncture and about 1–2 ml serum per rat was obtained following centrifugation at 3000 rpm for 5 min. Approximately 100 μl of CSF was collected from each rat via foramen magnum puncture. Briefly, for detection of IL-10, samples were incubated for 2.5 h in a microtiter plate pre-coated with monoclonal antibody, and then for 60 min with biotinylated antibody at room temperature, followed by the addition of streptavidin solution for 45 min and one-step substrate reagent for 30 min as performed in the dark at 37°C. For netrin-1 and IL-17, each sample and its control were incubated in the 96-well microtiter plate for 0.5 h at 37°C, followed by HRP-conjugated reagent and chromogen solution at 37°C. All optical densities were measured at 450 nm. Each sample was detected in duplicated wells and the results were averaged.

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.
