Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cilengitide was purchased from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX) and dissolved in PBS at 33 μM. Flo/OPN cells were treated with Cilengitide at a final concentration of 1000 nM (600 ng/ml) or vehicle control in 2% FBS media for 6 days, with Cilengitide media changes every two days. Cells were allowed to recover in inhibitor-free 10% FBS media for 6 h and then retreated with inhibitor-containing media for an additional 12 h prior to protein isolation.

For MFP injection, 1×105 PyMT-BO1-GFP-Luc cells mixed with BD matrigel (BD Biosciences) were injected into MFP tissue of 8-week-old female mice. For subcutaneous injections, 1×106 B16F10-Luc cells in 200uL PBS were injected into the flank of WT and β3KOM mice. Tumor growth was measured at each indicated time point. Tumor size (mm3) was calculated by measuring the longest (L) and shortest (S) distance of tumor tissue, with this formula: (tumor size=0.51*L*S2).
For intracardiac injections, the left ventricular chamber of 6-week-old mice was injected with 1×105 B16F10-Luc cells or 1×105 PyMT-BO1-GFP-Luc cells in 50uL PBS as previously described (30 (link)). Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) was used to quantify tumor growth after injection. For the cilengitide treatment, mice were given cilengitide (5mg/kg, Selleckchem) by intraperitoneal injection for the indicated time point. For anti-CSF1 antibody (clone 5A1) treatment, mice were given three doses of antibody (1mg, 0.5mg, and 0.5mg per mouse) by intraperitoneal injection. For CD8+ T-cell depletion, mice were given an intraperitoneal injection of 100 μg anti-CD8α (53-6.7; BioLegend) or rat IgG2b κ-chain isotype-matched control antibody (RTK4530; BioLegend) on the appropriate days.

Inflammasome Activation in Microglia

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Microglia isolated from 9-mo-old 5XFAD and OPN-KO.5XFAD mice were seeded into 96-well plates at 6×104 cells/well in a conventional microglia culture medium (DMEM-F12 with 10% fetal bovine serum + 1% penicillin/ streptomycin + 10 ng/mL recombinant mouse M-CSF). To induce inflammasome activation, microglia were primed with 100 ng/mL LPS for 3 h followed by stimulation with 10 μM Aβ1-42 fibrils overnight in the presence or absence of 12.5 μg/mL rmOPN. The αVβ3 inhibitor (Cilengitide, Selleck, 10 μM) was added into culture 1 h before the addition of rmOPN. Microglial intracellular caspase-1 activity was analyzed by the bioluminescent Caspase-Glo® 1 Inflammasome Assay Kit (Promega) per the manufacturer’s instruction. The detection specificity of caspase-1 activity was validated using a selective caspase-1 inhibitor (Ac-YVAD-CHO, 1 μM) included in the kit. Culture medium was collected for quantitative determination of microglial IL-1β production by the mouse IL-1β DuoSet ELISA kit (R&D Systems) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell survival was assessed using standard Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) method. Cells were seeded in a 96-well plate (2,000 cells/well). After overnight incubation, plates were treated with 5, 10, 25, and 50 μM cilengitide (Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA) for 24, 48, and 72 hours. Wells added with equal concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, 0.2%) without cilengitide were regarded as control. After treatment for 24, 48, and 72 hours, 10 μL CCK-8 solution (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to each well of the plate and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. Formazan absorbance at 450 nm was measured in a microplate reader (Thermo LabSystem, Beverly, MA, USA). Absolute optical density values were used to compare cell viability between different groups.

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.
