Patient and control fibroblasts were cultured on 12 mm coverslips in DMEM containing 15% FCS. Cells were washed with PBS and incubated at 37°C overnight in serum-free DMEM. Transferrin (TF) conjugated to Alexafluor 568 (25 μg/ml, Invitrogen) was added to TF-starved cells for 30 minutes at 37°C. Following incubation, cells were rinsed with ice-cold PBS and incubated in ice-cold acid wash buffer (0.025 M citric acid, 0.025 M sodium citrate, 0.15 M sucrose, and 200 μM deferoxamine mesylate, all from Sigma) for exactly 3 minutes. This was followed by extensive rinses with serum-free medium and PBS. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS, rinsed with PBS, and mounted on coverslips using mounting medium (Prolong Gold with DAPI, Invitrogen). When dry, the coverslips were sealed and imaged using a Nikon Eclipse 800 microscope. Mean red fluorescence intensity of fifty cells from 8–10 different fields was quantified using Nikon NS2 v3.2 imaging software.

Raw 264.7 murine macrophages were obtained from ATCC and cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) in tissue culture flasks. Raw cells were harvested via trypsinization and subcultured at 5 × 105 cells per well in 24-well plates for 24 h to allow attachment overnight before experimentation.
For BMM preparation, femurs and tibias were removed from euthanized female CD1 mice and flushed with sterile PBS through a 70 µm filter. The cells were centrifuged for 5 min at 4 °C and 500× g and resuspended in 28 mL complete DMEM (cDMEM) (10% FBS, 5% horse serum, 1% HEPES, 1% sodium pyruvate, 1% GlutaMAX, 1% penicillin–streptomycin). Then, L929 conditioned media (7 mL) containing murine CSF was prepared and added to the cDMEM, as described previously [21 (link)]. Macrophage differentiation was carried out for 12 days before experimentation.
Macrophages (Raw 264.7 or BMMs) were then treated with purified LT, purified ST, Salmonella minnesota LPS (InvivoGen, cat# R595, San Diego, CA, USA), IL-33 (R&D Systems, cat# 3626-ML, Minneapolis, MN, USA), forskolin (Sigma, cat#F3917, Waltham, MA, USA), CFA/I (BEI Repository, cat# NR-49110, Manassas, VA, USA), or deferoxamine mesylate (Sigma, cat# D9533).

ROS are formed in mitochondria and to high extent also in other cellular compartments of lung samples [24 (link)]. Therefore, total cytoplasmic protein was isolated from lung tissue in ice-cold 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid buffer (5 μl∙mg− 1 wet tissue) containing 1 μg∙ml− 1 saponine (Sigma, Saint Louis, MO) as mild detergent and 50 μM deferoxamine mesylate (Sigma) as Fe3+ chelator. Nuclei were then removed by centrifugation (600 g for 10 min). 10 μl nuclei-free cytoplasmic fraction were mixed after 90 min (Fe3+ chelate effect completed) with 90 μl 1 mM 1-hydroxy-3-carboxy-2,2,5,5,-tetramethyl-pyrrolidine (CPH; Noxygen, Elzach, Germany) as a spin trap for O2•-. A computer-operated electron paramagnetic resonance spectrophotometer (MiniScope MS100; Magnettech, Berlin, Germany) equipped with MiniScope Control v2.7.3 analysis software (Microtech GmbH, Bad Kreuznach, Germany) measured the time-dependent formation of 3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetra-methyl-pyrrolin-1-oxyl (CP) at room temperature every 10 min.

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.
