Lipopolysaccharide lps from e coli 055 b5

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from E. coli 055:B5 is a well-characterized endotoxin commonly used in research. It is a major component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. LPS has the ability to elicit strong immune responses in animals and is frequently used as a tool to study inflammation and immune function.

The anti-inflammatory activity was measured following the method described by Villalva et al. (2019) (link). In brief, human THP-1 monocytes (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) were cultured in RPMI 1640 media with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 U/mL penicillin, 100 mg/mL streptomycin, and 2 mM L-glutamine (Gibco, Paisley, UK). Cells were seeded in a 24-well plate at 5 × 105 cells/well and differentiated to macrophages by incubation with 100 ng/mL phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (Sigma-Aldrich, Madrid, Spain) for 48 h.
The cytotoxic effect of the extracts was tested on differentiated macrophages, following the MTT assay by Mosmann (1983) (link).
For the anti-inflammatory assay, differentiated cells were incubated with 0.05 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from E. coli 055:B5 (Sigma-Aldrich, Madrid, Spain) in the presence of the samples for 24 h. Then, the supernatants were collected and kept frozen at −80°C. The release of cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 was measured in the supernatants of differentiated cells using an ELISA kit (BD Biosciences, Aalst, Belgium), 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.
