The gene-transfected DO-11.10 cells were lysed with RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-HCL pH 7.6, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet P-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, and protease inhibitor cocktail; Nacalai Tesque) on ice for 1 h. Cell lysates were centrifuged at 10,000 × g for 10 min at 4 °C and the supernatants used for ELISA. The stock silk solutions (80 mg/mL in 9 M LiBr) were diluted with 1 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) to a concentration of 0.25 mg/mL. One hundred microlitres of the cell lysate, culture supernatants from hybridoma cells, and diluted silk solutions were applied to 96-well plates and incubated overnight at 4 °C. After three washes with PBS, each well was blocked with ELISA Assay Diluent (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) at room temperature for 1 h. After five washes with PBS and Tween 20, CEA (Abcam, code no. ab742, Cambridge, UK) was added to the wells and incubated at room temperature for 2 h. Binding was detected with anti-CEA polyclonal antibody (Abcam, code no. ab15987), then HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit Igs (Dako), finally by incubation with ELISA POD Substrate TMB solution (Nacalai Tesque). After colour development, the reaction was stopped with 2 N H2SO4 and the absorbance read at 450 nm using a microplate reader (iMarkTM Microplate Reader; Bio-Rad).

PCL particles were dissolved in chloroform to coat the bottom of 96-well plates (20 mg/ml). Sera collected 3, 6, and 12 weeks after injury were serially diluted (in the range of 1:50 to 1:102,400) in ELISA Assay Diluent (BioLegend, catalog no. 421203). Before loading, the PCL-coated plate was blocked with the assay diluent for 1 hour.
After blocking, each dilution of the serum sample was loaded into the plate and incubated for 2 hours. After washing, biotin anti-mouse IgG1 or IgM or IgA was added to capture the bound antibody for 1 hour, followed by washing. Streptavidin solution was added to the wells and incubated for 30 min. Trimethylboron substrate was used for HRP detection and stopped with H2SO4. Absorbance was read at 450 and 570 nm (background control).

TCR Cloning and Antigen Specificity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The TCR cloning and expression protocol10 (link) is described in the Supplementary Information. We used TCR-deficient Jurkat cells (JurkatΔαβ)35 (link) transduced to express CD4 and CD8 as reporter cells. To assess antigen specificity of the cloned TCRs, we pulsed dendritic cells derived from patient PBMCs with candidate peptides (10 μg ml−1 unless specified otherwise) for 2 h in complete RPMI. Reporter cells stably expressing TCR were co-cultured in 96-well round bottom plate with pulsed dendritic cells, in a ratio of 20:1 (0.5 × 106 Jurkat-expressing TCR cells to 2.5 × 104 dendritic cells) in complete RPMI. After 24 h at 37 °C and 5% CO2, the supernatant was collected and diluted 1:2 with ELISA Assay Diluent (Biolegend) and IL-2 production was measured using the Human IL-2 ELISA MAX Standard Kit (Biolegend) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. OVA peptide was used as a negative control and PMA/ionomycin was used as a positive control.

Allergen-specific IgE antibody determination was performed as previously described (11 (link)). Briefly, 96-well microplates were immobilized with 5 µg/10 mL (plate) of recombinant Art v 1 protein on an ELISA Coating Buffer (BioLegend) overnight. On the following day, ELISA Assay Diluent (BioLegend) in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was added into the plates at 200 μL/well and incubated on a PST-60HL thermal shaker (BIOSAN, Latvia) for 1 h at room temperature (RT). The plates were then washed four times with ELISA Wash Buffer (BioLegend). The mouse serum samples were diluted in a 1:5 ratio with ELISA Assay Diluent and 100 µl were added to the wells and incubated for 1.5-2 h at RT with stirring. After washing (4x), anti-mouse biotinylated detection antibodies for IgE (1:200, Cat # 406904, BioLegend, 100 µl/well) were added and the plates were incubated for 1 h at RT with stirring. After additional washing (4x), plates were incubated with HRP Streptavidin (BioLegend, 1:1000, 100 µL/well) for 30 min at RT with stirring. After that, the washing (5x) was repeated, and on completion of which the TMB substrate (BioLegend, 100 µl/well) was added. The color reaction was stopped by adding a stop solution (100 µL/well), and the optical density was measured at 450 nm on a Stat Fax 2100 analyzer (Awareness Tech).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ELISA was used for evaluating the β2-m-binding activity of ApoE NTD-MHC α3 and ApoE NTD-scFv, as described previously, 2 with minor modifications. Briefly, ApoE NTD-MHC α3/scFv samples in PBS at different concentrations (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, and 500 nM) were coated onto a 96-well assay polystyrene plate (AGC Techno Glass, Japan), which was then washed five times with PBS containing 0.05% (v/v) Tween 20 (PBS-T). After blocking with a blocking buffer (ELISA assay diluent; BioLegend, CA), β2-m (0 or 1 µg mL -1 ) in the blocking buffer or in fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Equitech-Bio, TX) was added to the protein-coated plate. After incubation and washing, rabbit anti-human β2-m PAb (13511-1-AP; Proteintech, IL), followed by HRP-conjugated swine anti-rabbit Ig PAb (P0399; Dako, Denmark), was added to the plate. The plate was then washed with PBS-T, and β2-m bound to the protein-coated plate was detected using ELISA POD substrate TMB solution (Nacalai Tesque, Japan). Absorbance at 450 nm was measured using a plate reader (Varioskan™; Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA). Background (0 µg mL -1 β2-m) absorbance was subtracted from the sample (1 µg mL -1 β2-m) absorbance. Three different wells were used for each condition (n = 3).

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.
