At pre-inoculation and 3 or 5 days post-inoculation (dpi), mouse lungs were collected after euthanasia (n = 6). Lungs were homogenized with 2 mL of transport medium: MEM containing 10,000 U/mL penicillin G, 10 mg/mL streptomycin, 0.3 mg/mL gentamicin, 250 U/mL Nystatin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), and 0.5% bovine serum albumin fraction V (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). The homogenized lung tissue was centrifuged for 5 min at 4 °C and 8000 rpm. The supernatant was collected, and all samples were stored at −80 °C until quantification of virus titers and cytokines.

Cells (10 × 107) were pelleted and resuspended in 500 μL of PBS supplemented with 0.5% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin Fraction V, Roche) and 2 mM EDTA. An anti-LRP6 antibody (C10, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was added to the cell suspension and incubated on a rotating wheel at 4°C for 1 h. The cells were then enriched using anti-mouse IgG Microbeads (Miltenyi Biotech) and LS columns (Miltenyi Biotec), according to the manufacturer's instructions. In order to further increase the percentage of LRP6-expressing cells, similar procedures were repeated twice.

Elisa

To not-coated Maxisorb plates non-biotinylated peptide/protein/aggregate and to streptavidin coated Maxisorb plates biotinylated peptide/protein/aggregate in PBS were added and incubated over-night. The supernatant was discarded and the wells washed three times with 90 μl wash buffer (1×PBS/0.1% Tween 20). Remaining reactive spots were blocked with blocking buffer (1×PBS/2% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin Fraction V. fatty acid free, Roche, Cat. No.: 10735078001)10.05% Tween 20) by incubating for 1 h. The supernatant was discarded and the wells washed three times with 90 μl wash buffer. Samples and control antibody were prepared in 12 dilutions. (1:2) in ELISA buffer (1×PBS/0.5% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin Fraction V, fatty acid free, Roche, Cat. No.: 10735078001)/0.05% Tween 20) with a start concentration of 500 ng/mL. The incubation time was 60 minutes at RT on a shaker. The supernatant was discarded and the wells washed three times with 90 μl wash buffer. Solutions of the secondary antibody were prepared in ELISA buffer. A total of 25 μl antibody-mix was transferred in all wells of the assay plate and the plate was thereafter incubated on shaker for 60 minutes at RT. The supernatant was discarded and the wells were washed three times with 90 μl wash buffer. To all wells 25 μl of ABTS solution was added. The absorbance was read at 405 nm-492 nm.

Immortalized Human Pancreatic Cell Line

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A fragment from neonatal pancreas was collected, cut into pieces, digested with type IV collagenase (Sigma-Aldrich) and transduced with lentiviral vectors. Two loxP sites flank the integrated sequences expressing SV40T and hTERT, allowing subsequent excision dependent on Cre recombinase expression15 (link). The tissue was next transplanted under the kidney capsule of immune-incompetent SCID (Charles River, L’Arbresle, France) as described49 (link). Following 3 successive rounds of transplantation, we derived the cell line ECN90 that is cultured at 37 °C in 5% CO2 in Advanced DMEM/F12 medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 2% bovine serum albumin fraction V (Roche), 6.7 ng/ml sodium selenite, 10 mM nicotinamide (Calbiochem), 50 μM β-mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich) and penicillin/streptomycin (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

SK-L cells were inoculated with the serially 10-fold diluted CSFV in 96-well plates and incubated at 37 °C for 72 to 96 h. Then, the plates were immunostained as described previously [27 (link)]. Briefly, the plate was air-dried and heat-fixed at 80 °C for 1 h. Cells were then incubated at room temperature for 1 h in the presence of the primary monoclonal antibody for NS3, 46/1 [28 (link)]. After washing with PBS, cells were incubated at 37 °C for 1 h in the presence of goat anti-mouse IgG (H + L) horseradish peroxidase conjugate (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). The primary and secondary antibodies were diluted 2000-fold with PBS containing 1% Bovine Serum Albumin Fraction V (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and 0.05% Tween 20 (FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corp.). Finally, cells were washed again with PBS and then stained with 3-amino-9-ethyl carbazole (Sigma-Aldrich). Virus titers were calculated and expressed as TCID50 per milliliter [29 (link)].

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.
