Myocardial Cell Membrane and TNF-α Staining

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The myocardial cell membrane was stained with WGA antibody (ZF0305, Vector Laboratories), diluted with 5% BSA at a ratio of 1:500, incubated for 2 h at room temperature, washed with PBS 1X, and then mounted with DAPI anti-fluorescence quenching mounts, and collected by a microscope.
The paraffin sections of the heart were deparaffinized. According to the instructions of the reagents, used 1% H2O2 for 10 min, Used sodium citrate repair solution (P0083, Beyotime) to repair antigen in a microwave oven, and 5% BSA for 30 min. Afterward, incubate with TNF-α primary antibody (AF-410-SP, R&D) at 20 ug/ml at 4°C overnight. After washing with PBS 1X, add anti-goat secondary antibody and incubate for 30 min. SABC reacted for 30 min, washed and stained with DAB staining solution, hematoxylin stained the nucleus, and then mounted the slide and took pictures under a microscope.

Cytokine Blocking and Spike-in Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the cytokine blocking experiment cells were pre-incubated with either phosphate bufferred saline (PBS) or blocking antibodies (anti IL-6, cat. MAB206-SP, R&D 0.15 µg/mL and anti TNF-α, cat. AF-410-SP, R&D 10 µg/mL) for 4 h before the addition of the patients’ serum. Blocking antibodies or PBS were also added at the time of serum addition. Media containing serum and blocking antibodies was refreshed after 48 h and viability and contractility were measured on day 4. For the spike in experiment, IL-6 and TNF- α (Peprotech) were added to media supplemented with serum from control COVID-19 negative patients at the concentration of 100 and 150 pg/mL, respectively.

HDL Cholesterol Efflux in ADAM17-deficient Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cholesterol efflux capacity of HDL (100 μg/ml, 4 hr) was determined in C57BL/6J wild-type and ADAM17-deficient BMDMs radiolabeled with [3H]-cholesterol and incubated with cyclic AMP to induce expression of ABCA1 and ABCG1 and an acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase inhibitor (2 μg/ml).11 (link) In some experiments, cells were treated with either TNFα (20 ng/ml), a goat anti-mouse blocking TNFα antibody (R&D systems, AF-410-SP) or control IgG (R&D systems, AB-108-C) before measuring cholesterol efflux capacity of HDL. Cholesterol efflux was calculated as the percentage of radiolabeled cholesterol in the medium at the end of the incubation divided by the total radioactivity of the medium and cells.44

Adipocyte-Mediated Regulation of Hepatoma and Melanoma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
H22, B16-F1, human hepatoma HepG2 cells and 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were purchased from China Center for Type Culture Collection (Wuhan, China). The cells were cultured in DMEM media containing penicillin/streptomycin (100 U/100 μg/ml) and 10% fetal bovine serum, and incubated at 37 °C/5% CO2.
3T3-L1 preadipocytes were differentiated through incubation in complete DMEM containing 10 μg/mL insulin, 0.5 μM dexamethasone, and 0.5 mM 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) for 2 days and thereafter in complete DMEM supplemented with 10 μg/mL insulin for next 2 days. Subsequently, cells were maintained in and re-fed every 2 days with culture medium for another 4 days. Differentiation into mature adipocytes was confirmed by Oil Red O staining. Differentiated 3T3-L1 cells were cultured with complete DMEM for 24 h, and supernatants were collected as adipocytes conditional media (adi-CM).
HepG2 or B16-F1 cells were treated with adi-CM for 48 h. In the meantime, anti-TNF-α antibody (R&D system, AF-410-SP) and/or anti-IL-6 antibody (R&D system, MAB406), the inhibitor of STAT3 BP-1-102 (Selleck, S7769) or the inhibitor of NF-κB withaferin A (MCE, HY-N2065) were used at corresponding concentrations.

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.
