Dnp hsa

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Japan, Germany

DNP-HSA is a reagent used in biochemical and immunological research applications. It functions as a hapten, which is a small molecule that can be attached to a larger carrier protein, such as human serum albumin (HSA), to generate an immune response. The core function of DNP-HSA is to serve as a model system for studying protein-hapten interactions and immune response mechanisms.

Mice were sensitized by i.p. injection of 1 µg of mouse dinitrophenylated human serum albumin (DNP-HSA)–specific IgE (D8406; Sigma-Aldrich) in 100 µl PBS, and control mice were mock-injected i.p. with 100 µl of PBS. 16 h later, sensitized or non-sensitized control mice were injected i.p. with 250 ng of DNP-HSA (D8406; Sigma-Aldrich), and rectal temperature was measured every 10 min for a period of 60 min.

BMDMC culture was established as described elsewhere29 (link). In brief, bone marrow cells were flushed from adult WT mice femurs and tibia, centrifuged and resuspended in RPMI containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 U/mL penicillin, 0.1 mg/mL streptomycin, 25 mmom/L HEPES, 2 mmol/L L-glutamine, 1 mmol/L sodium pyruvate, 1 mmol/L nonessential amino acids, and 1 mmol/L MEM amino acids (all from Sigma) in the presence of 5 ng/ml recombinant mouse IL-3 (Peprotech). A selection process for mature mast cells was for a period of at least 4 weeks with continuous enrichment for non-adherent fraction of mast cell precursors. After this period, cells were phenotypically more than 90% mature as assessed by FACS staining with antibodies against mouse FcεR1-PE (eBioscience, clone MAR-1) and CD117(c-Kit)-APC (eBioscience, clone 2B8; Online Figure I). To induce mast cells degranulation, cells were sensitized overnight with 100 ng/ml mouse anti-DNP-IgE (Sigma), washed and stimulated with 100 ng/ml DNP-HSA (Sigma) for 0.5 or 1 h (fast release) or 6 h (slow release). The efficiency of mediator release was monitored by β-hexaminidase activity in mast cell supernatants (releasates; Online Figure I)30 .

PCA was performed as previously described (37 (link)). Briefly, mice were sensitized by intradermal injection of 100 ng anti-DNP IgE mAb (Sigma-Aldrich) into the left ears, whereas the right ears received saline as a control. After 24 h, mice were challenged by retro-orbital injection of 100 μg DNP-HSA (Sigma-Aldrich). The thickness of the ear was measured using a thickness micrometer at baseline and for the indicated time points. Changes in ear thickness were reported relative to baseline.

To measure degranulation, BMMCs preloaded with 0.15 μg/ml IgE (SPE-7; Sigma) overnight (37°C, 5% CO2) were washed in sterile PBS, resuspended in Tyrode's buffer (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1.4 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, 5.6 mM glucose, and 0.1% BSA in 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) and adapted to 37°C. Cells were stimulated with different concentrations of Ag (DNP-HSA; Sigma) for 30 min at 37°C. The degree of degranulation was determined by measuring β-hexosaminidase release (53 (link)).

BMMC, previously incubated overnight with bacteria at a final concentration of OD600 = 0.2 in the well or without, were sensitized with 1 μg/mL mouse IgE anti‐DNP 2682‐I 24 for 1 h and challenged with DNP‐HSA (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) for 20 min. β‐hexosaminidase was quantitated in supernatants using an enzymatic assay as described by Malbec et al. 23. The percentage of inhibition of β‐hexosaminidase release in BMMC exposed to bacteria was calculated based on β‐hexosaminidase relase in BMMC not exposed to bacteria (100% activation).

BMMCs were generated from bone marrow cell suspensions in the presence of IL-3,
IL-4, and SCF as described previously. Calcium imaging buffer (CIB; 125 mM
sodium chloride, approximately 3 mM potassium chloride, 2.5 mM, 0.6 mM
MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES, 20 mM glucose, 1.2 mM NaHCO3,
20 mM sucrose, pH 7.4) was used for pre-sensitized BMMCs, while for LAD2 cells,
pre-incubation buffer (4 μM Fluo-3, 0.1% (v/v) pluronic F-127 CIB) together with
LicA (0, 25, 50, 100 μM) was used for 30 min. Then, the cells were washed twice
with CIB and stimulated with DNP-HSA (1 μg/mL, for BMMCs) or streptomycin
(100 ng/mL, for LAD2; Sigma-Aldrich) for the first 10 s. We used a fluorescence
microscope to photograph the cells at ×200 magnification under green light (1 s
per photo). The activation status of MCs was determined by the changes in
fluorescence intensity.

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.
