Cytokine Bead Array Analysis of BMDM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Cytokine Bead Array Mouse Inflammation kit (BD Biosciences 552364) was used according to manufacturer’s instructions for simultaneous measurement of IL-6, IL-10, CCL2, IFNγ, TNFα, and IL-12p70 in supernatants from stimulated BMDMs. General statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 4.0 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA), using an unpaired Student t test. For each experiment, both the standard deviation and the standard error of the mean were calculated. P-values of < 0.05 were considered significant.

Total RNA from WT and STAT3 SA peritoneal macrophages was isolated using the RNAeasy Isolation Kit (Qiagen, Cat# 74104) and reverse transcribed with random hexamers (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat# N8080127) using Moloney murine leukaemia virus reverse transcriptase (Promega, Cat# 1701) according to manufacturers’ instructions. mRNA was quantified with SYBR reagents (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat# A46012) using primer pairs targeting il1b (Forward 5′- CAACCAACAAGTGATATTCTCCATG- 3, Reverse 5′- GATCCACACTCTCCAGCTGCA- 3′), and 18S (Forward 5′- GTAACCCGTTGAACCCATT- 3′, Reverse 5′- CGAATCGAATCGGTAGTAGCG- 3′). Relative mRNA expression was analysed using the comparative CT method, normalising genes of interest to the 18S housekeeping gene and fold gene induction calculated relative to expression in control samples.
Quantification of cytokines secreted from peritoneal macrophages and serum, and peritoneal macrophages cellular lysates were conducted using ELISA kits from R&D Systems (IL-1β: Cat# DY401, TNF: Cat# DY410, IL-6: Cat# DY406 and IL-10: Cat# DY417) or Cytokine Bead Array Mouse Inflammation kit (BD Biosciences, Cat# 552364) according to manufacturers’ instructions.

Cytokine and Nitric Oxide Production in MRSA-Infected Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The protein levels of IL-12p70, TNF-α, IFN-γ, MCP-1 and IL-6 were determined using the Cytokine Bead Array Mouse Inflammation Kit (BD Bioscience) and LEGENDplex Multiplex Assay kit (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions. IL-10 levels were measured by the Cytokine Beads Array Mouse IL-10 Enhanced Sensitivity Flex Set (BD Bioscience). The NO assay was performed as described (29 (link)). Briefly, macrophages were treated with 5 MOI of MRSA for 8 h, and the culture medium was collected to measure the amount of nitrite, a stable metabolite of NO. One hundred microliters of the culture medium were incubated with equal amount of Griess reagent (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) at room temperature for 10 min, and the absorbance was measured at 540 nm using a microplate reader. The quantity of nitrite was determined from a standard curve of sodium nitrate.

Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophage Activation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To obtain murine BMDMs, femurs and tibias were harvested from female C57Bl/6J mice and marrow cores were flushed using syringes filled with RPMI 1640/10% FBS. Cells were triturated and red blood cells (RBCs) were lysed with 1X RBC lysis solution (eBioscience). Cells were washed once in media, then plated and cultured in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 0.1 mg/mL penicillin/streptomycin, 10 mM HEPES, 0.001% β-mercaptoethanol, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 2 mM L-glutamine, 0.1 mM non-essential amino acids, and 10% FBS and in the presence of 30 ng/ml rmM-CSF (PeproTech). Cells were incubated for 7 days prior to use. On day 7, cells were scraped and washed with PBS and placed in RPMI/10% FBS. 96-well plates were seeded with 105 BMDMs/well and incubated with 100 μM IA, 100 μM IPA, 100 μM HPPA, or 0.1% DMSO for 6 h, then 20 ng/mL rmIL-4 (PeproTech) was added for 24 h, followed by 20 ng/mL LPS stimulation for 18 h. Supernatants were collected and analyzed using a cytokine bead array mouse inflammation kit (BD Biosciences) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
