Multiplex Cytokine Profiling Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Levels of the cytokines IFNγ, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), IL-10, IL-17, IL-2, and IL-4 in culture medium were determined using a multiplex bead array assay. All the reagents were purchased from R&D Systems. Individual bead sets (Luminex) were coupled to cytokine-specific capture antibodies following the manufacturer’s instructions. Data were recorded on the Bio-Plex-200 platform and analysed using the Bioplex Manager® software (version 6.1; Bio-Rad) with a 5-parameter logistic regression algorithm.

A Bio-Plex Multiplex Immunoassay System was used to measure 17 cytokine and chemokine (IL-6, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-17A, MCP-1, MIP-1β, TNF-ɑ, G-CSF, GM-CSF, and IFN-γ) levels according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In brief, premixed beads were added to a 96-well plate from the kit. Plates were washed prior to adding 50 µl of standards and samples (4× dilution) to each well containing coated beads. The plate was placed on a shaker and incubated for 1 h at RT (850 RPM). Afterward, the plate was washed with wash buffer (3×) and detection antibodies were added to each well prior to incubating the plate again for 30 min on the shaker (850 RPM at RT). The plate was washed with wash buffer (3×) prior to adding streptavidin-PE (SA-PE) for 10 min. The plate was washed with wash buffer (3×) prior to measuring samples using the BioPlex 200 machine in the UAB Comprehensive Flow Cytometry Core. Data were analyzed using the BioPlex 200 platform.

Mice were sacri ced by CO 2 and lung tissue and blood samples were collected. Whole lungs were cyclically in ated and de ated with 1 mL of phosphate-buffered saline (Gibco-Thermo Fisher Scienti c, Waltham, MA, USA) three times. Cells were isolated by centrifugation at 300 × g for 10 min at 4°C and stained with Diff-Quik stain (Baso Diagnostics, Zhuhai, China). Differential cell counts were assessed from 400 cells counted on each slide. Plasma cytokine levels were assayed using Luminex xMap and a commercially available mouse cytokine 6-plex panel (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's guidelines and measured on a Bio-Plex 200 Platform.

Neutrophil Depletion in Pneumonia Mouse Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used c57BL/6 mice (Taconic) aged 7 to 9 weeks for all mouse experiments, and pulmonary infection was performed as previously (14 (link), 67 (link)). At 48 and 4 h prior to the procedure, mice were injected intraperitoneally with 225 μg of rat anti-mouse Ly6G (1A8) or a control rat anti-mouse IgG2a (2A3) (BioXcell). Neutrophil depletion was confirmed previously using flow cytometry of lung homogenates (Ly6G+, Ly6C, CD11b). Inocula were prepared by resuspending MMC39 in a Tris-glycine buffer containing 5 mg/ml of an ovalbumin control mIgG1 (Crown Biosciences), 17H12 mIgG1, or 17H12 mIgG3 to a final concentration of 6 × 106 or 3 × 107 CFU/ml. After 1 h of opsonization, 50 μl of the inoculum was instilled into the surgically exposed trachea of a mouse under ketamine/xylazine using a bent 27-gauge needle. After 20 h, mice were euthanized, and lungs, liver, and spleen were collected and processed in NP-40 or PBS and diluted to enumerate CFU. Supernatants of lung homogenates used for cytokine analysis were stored at −80°C with 1× Pierce proteinase inhibitor until testing using Bio-Plex Pro mouse cytokine Th17 panel A with additional GM-CSF and IL-12p70 singleplex sets on a Bio-Plex 200 Platform (Bio-Rad). Cytokine levels were normalized against total protein measured by Bradford assay.

Quantifying Chemokine Levels in Cell Cultures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the purpose of the correlation analysis, the previously published [88 (link),89 (link)] data on circulating chemokines were obtained from the patients’ database. In the original research, concentrations of MCP-1, MIP-1α and MIP-1β were measured in sera in duplicates/triplicates using a flow cytometry-based method with a BioPlex 200 platform (Bio-Rad) and Bio-Plex Pro™ Human Cytokine, Chemokine, and Growth Factor Magnetic Bead–Based Assays, as instructed by the manufacturer.
For the purpose of this study, the concentrations of MCP-1, MCP-3, MIP-1α, and MIP-1β were measured in cell culture supernatants using the same methodology and a custom-made cytokine panel ProcartaPlex Immunoassay from Invitrogen (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
Standard curves were prepared using 5-PL logistic regression, and the collected data were analyzed using BioPlex Manager 6.0 software.

Plasma levels of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin were measured in the fasting state using the human obesity multiplex Luminex assays (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA) and analyzed using a Bioplex 200 platform (Bio-Rad, Hercules, California, USA) from banked participant samples collected at baseline and final follow-up study visits. All samples were run in duplicates and analyzed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Supernatants collected from proliferation assays on day 2 and day 5 were assayed using a human cytokine/chemokine kit (Bio-Plex 14-plex; Bio-Rad Laboratories) on the Bio-Plex 200 platform according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Supernatants were selected on the basis of the largest proliferation responses per subject. Responses were considered positive if the value secreted was at least double the amount detected from unstimulated cells, and the background was subtracted before analysis.

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.
