CPX and DMSO were purchased from Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany). FSCPX was manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc. (Heidelberg, Germany) and distributed by BIO-Kasztel, Ltd. (Budapest, Hungary). Kits (including POM-1) were produced by BPS Bioscience (San Diego, CA, USA) and distributed by THP Medical Products Vertriebs GMBH (Vienna, Austria). PSB-12379 was manufactured by Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, UK) and distributed by Bio-Techne R&D Systems, Ltd. (Budapest, Hungary). Redistilled water was used to dissolve and dilute POM-1 as well as dilute the pre-dissolved PSB-12379. FSCPX and CPX were dissolved in dimethyl-sulfoxide (DMSO; purchased from Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany)), and then, they were diluted with redistilled water (when needed).

Neutrophil and Monocyte Migration Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The migration of unstimulated neutrophils or monocyte and chemotaxis of cells were measured as previously reported (5 (link)). Briefly, advanced RPMI (Thermo Fisher, Cat#12633–012) with the chemoattractants CXCL1 (BioLegend Cat#573702), CCL2 (R&D Systems, Cat#479-JE), or N-Formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP; Sigma-Aldrich Cat#F3506) was placed in the bottom of the 3-μm-pore Transwell system (Neuro Probe Cat#101–3). Neutrophils were incubated with PSB12379 (Tocris) or 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX) (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat#C101) in advanced RPMI for 10 min before being plated on top of the Transwell (0.1×106 cells) and were incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2 for 1 h. 10μl medium was taken from the bottom wells and cells were counted by a hemocytometer. The quantification of migrated neutrophils was done with the formula N=n×104×0.029 (reflective of 29μl medium in the bottom well).

Evaluating CD73 Inhibition in 2D and 3D Noz Cell Cultures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Adherent and spheroid NOZ cells were seeded in 96-well plates and were exposed for 72 h to PSB 12379 (CD73 pharmacological inhibitor) (Tocris) at indicated doses. The MTS reagent was then added to each well and absorbance was measured at 490 nm. Enumeration of spheroids was performed by initially seeding spheroids at 2000 cells/well in a 6-well ultra-low-attachment plates (Corning Incorporated). Spheroids were cultured with serum-free stem cell-conditioned medium. PSB 12379 was added at a concentration of 10 µM to the spheroid culture. Number of spheres per culture well were counted on day 7 using an inverted microscope equipped with a digital camera (Olympus DP21).

Modulation of Macrophage Polarization by MSC Exosomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To investigate the modulatory effects of MSC exosomes on macrophage polarization, the rat primary macrophages were treated with either 10 μg/mL exosomes or PBS vehicle for 24 and 48 h (Figure 1A). To investigate the role of CD73 in mediating the exosome effects, macrophages were co-treated with 10 μg/mL exosomes and 10 nM PSB12379 (CD73 inhibitor; Tocris Bioscience, Bristol, UK) (Figure 1B). The role of adenosine receptors in the activation of AKT and ERK pathways was investigated by pre-treating the cells with 2 μM of ZM241385 (A2A receptor antagonist; Tocris), 200 nM PSB1115 (A2B receptor antagonist; Tocris), 1 μM wortmannin (AKT inhibitor; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), or 10 μM U0126 (ERK inhibitor; Cell Signaling Technology) for 1 h, before treatment with 10 μg/mL exosomes (Figure 1C). For the inhibitor studies, the macrophages were harvested at 30 min for western blot analysis, 24 and 48 h for gene expression analysis, and 48 h for immunofluorescence staining (Figure 1B,C). All in vitro experiments were performed in triplicates (n = 3) in two independent trials.

Exosome-Mediated Odontogenic Differentiation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
P3 DPCs were seeded at a density of 2 × 104 cells/cm2 and cultured for 16 h before the medium was changed to low serum culture medium for 24 h, and then treated with 1, 5, 10 μg/ml exosomes or PBS for over 48 h. To investigate the involvement of adenosine receptors and activation of AKT and ERK pathways, cells were pre-treated with 1 mM theophylline (a non-selective inhibitor of adenosine receptors) (Sigma) [34] (link), 1 µM wortmannin (AKT inhibitor) or 10 µM U0126 (ERK inhibitor) (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) or equivalent volume of distilled water or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as vehicle controls for 1 h, before treatment with 10 μg/ml exosomes or PBS for 48 h. In experiment with CD73 inhibitor, N6-Benzyl-α,β-methyleneadenosine 5′-diphosphate disodium salt (PSB12379; Tocris Biosciences, CO, USA), cells were co-treated with exosomes and 10 nM PSB12379 for 1 h. Following treatment, cells were rinsed with PBS and harvested for analysis. In odontogenic differentiation experiments, cells were treated with 10 µg/ml exosomes or PBS in odontogenic medium with or without the inhibitors. Medium change with fresh exosomes and inhibitors was performed every alternate day till day 7.

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.
