Plasma Proteome Enrichment Using CPLL

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Enrichment of low-abundance plasma proteins using the CPLL column (ProteoMiner; #163-3006, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., CA, USA) was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, the CPLL column was prepared by adding 200 μl wash buffer (BioRad) and rotating the column several times over a 5 min period. The wash buffer was removed by centrifugation at 1,000 × g for 1 min. This step was repeated once. Thereafter, 200 μl of plasma was added to the column followed by incubation for 2 h at room temperature with gentle mixing. The unbound proteins were then removed by 1000 x g centrifugation for 1 min, and the column was washed twice using 200 μL wash buffer (BioRad) and additionally washed by 200 μL deionized water to remove unbound proteins and salt contamination. The bound proteins were eluted by adding 20 μl of elution reagent (BioRad) and then incubation for 15 min with intermittent gentle mixing. The eluted proteins were collected by centrifugation at 1,000 × g for 30-60 sec. This elution step was repeated twice. The eluate was kept at -80°C until further analysis.

Multiplex Cytokine Profiling of Plasma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The plasma samples obtained from the 24-hour post-injury groups in Cohort II (n = 8 per group) were used for a multiplex assay to compare cytokines, chemokines and growth factors, as per manufacturer protocol (Bio-Rad, Bio-Plex Pro™ Rat Cytokine 23-Plex Assay #L8001V11S5). Briefly, plasma samples were diluted 1:4 and analysed following the manufacturer's instructions. The plates were pre-wetted with wash buffer (Bio-Rad) and loaded with 1 × beads (Bio-Rad). The wells were rinsed by wash buffer (Bio-Rad) and then loaded with blank, standards, or samples for one-hour incubation. Following washing thre times, the detection antibodies were added for 30-minute incubation. The plates were washed and incubated in streptavidin-phycoerythrin for 10 minutes. After washing, the analytes were resuspended with assay buffer (Bio-Rad) for 30 seconds. The plates were read using the Bio-Plex reader (Bio-Rad), and results were converted to a pg/ml concentration for all of the cytokines tested.

About 50 μl 1x beads were added to a 96 well micro titer plate and washed 2x with the Bio-Rad wash buffer, (Cat #, 10,014,939). The standards, samples and controls were diluted (Bio-Rad Antibody diluent, (Cat #, 35,002,989) and 50 μl added to the wells and incubated in the dark at room temperature with shaking at 850 rpm for 1 h. After incubating the beads, samples, standards, blank and controls; the plates were washed three times with 100 μl wash buffer. 1x detection antibodies were added to the assay plate and incubated in the dark for 30 min with shaking at 850 rpm. The plate was washed 3x and Streptavidin – PE (Cat #, L9703897) was added. The assay plate was incubated for 10 min at room temperature with shaking at 850 rpm. The plate was washed 3x and the beads (Bio-Rad Cat #, 171–304,040) were re-suspended for plate reading. The Bio-plex manager software was used running the assay, data acquisition and analysis.

Cytokine and Chemokine Quantification in Rat Colon

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital (50 mg/kg) and killed by decapitation. The 2 cm length colon was removed starting from anus, washed with wash buffer (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, California, USA), and homogenized in Bio-Plex cell lysis buffer (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, California, USA). After centrifugation, the supernatants were collected and stored at −80°C until further use. The supernatants were used to assay cytokines and chemokines using Bio-Plex Pro Rat Cytokine 24-Plex Assay kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, California, USA). The following cytokines and chemokines were quantified: interleukin- (IL-) 1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-17, IL-18, erythropoietin (EPO), granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), growth-related oncogene/keratinocyte-derived chemokine (GRO/KC), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), monocyte inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), MIP-3α, regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1).

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.
