Antigen-specific IgG concentrations were analyzed as described previously.24 (link) Briefly, ELISA plates coated with recombinant PhtD or PcpA were incubated with duplicate serial dilutions of test sera or human AB serum standard (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA). Bound antibody was detected using horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat-anti-human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA) followed by tetramethylbenzidine substrate (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). Antibody concentrations were determined by comparison with the human AB serum standard curve. The lower limit of quantitation was 0.123 ELISA units (EU)/ml for PhtD and 1.11 EU/ml for PcpA.

Microplates (Maxi binding, SPL Life Sciences, Eumhyeon, South Korea) were coated with 100 µl/well of purified Li-rK39 at a concentration of 0.5 μg/ml in 0.1 M carbonate/bicarbonate buffer (pH 9.6) overnight at 4 °C. Blocking was performed for 1 h at ambient temperature with 400 μl of PBS-Blotto (0.01 M phosphate, 0.14 M NaCl, pH 7.4). Diluted serum (100 μl of 1:100 dilution in PBS-Blotto) was added to each well and incubated for 30 min at ambient temperature. After three times washing with 350 µl/well of PBS-Tween (0.01 M, pH 7.4), 100 μl of horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-human IgG (Cat No. 109-035-003, Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA), diluted 1:40,000 in PBS-Tween (0.01 M, pH 7.4), were applied to the wells and incubated for 30 min at ambient temperature. After five times washing with 350 µl/well of PBS-Tween (0.01 M, pH 7.4), 100 µl/well of TMB substrate solution (Cat No. 34029, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) were added. The reaction was stopped with 100 µl/well of 1 N H2SO4. The absorbance (optical density, OD) at 450 nm and 630 nm was measured with a microplate reader (Epoch, Biotek Instruments, Winooski, VT, USA). The cut-off value for positive was defined as the OD corresponding with the highest value of the Youden index (J = sensitivity + specificity − 1).

Exosome Characterization by Western Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Exosomes were separated under reducing conditions using 4% to 12% gradient Bis Tris gel (Invitrogen) electrophoresis. The protein was transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane and blocked with Tris-buffered saline containing 5% skim milk protein for 1 hour. Exosomes isolated from stable LTxRs and from LTxRs with BOS were analyzed with Abs specific to target proteins, including Col-V (ab7046), CIITA (ab49132; Abcam), NF-κB (C22B4), cell-signaling technology, Kα1T (sc-12462-R), 20S proteasome (sc-166205), CD56 (sc-7326), NKG2D (sc-23869), perforin (sc-373943), FasL (sc-19681; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), per manufacturers’ protocol. The blots were then washed 3 times with Tris-buffered saline and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-human IgG (1:10,000) (Jackson Immuno Research Laboratories, West Grove, Pennsylvania, USA) for 2 hours. The Western blot image was detected and quantitated by using Odyssey Fc with Image studio version 5.2 software (LI-COR Biotechnology, Lincoln, Nebraska, USA).

Eculizumab Quantification in Serum by ELISA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The eculizumab concentration in the serum samples was measured by an ELISA specifically developed for this purpose. To capture eculizumab, the 96-well plates were coated with purified 0.5 μg/well of purified C5 (Calbiochem®, San Diego, CA, USA) diluted in carbonate buffer (pH 9.6) overnight at 4 °C. Serum samples have been diluted in phosphate buffered saline, supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin (PBS/BSA). Eculizumab detection has been performed using horse radish peroxidase-conjugated goat-antihuman IgG (JacksonImmunoResearch Laboratories, Inc., West Grove, PA, USA). A standard was produced by adding eculizumab (Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Cheshire, CT, USA) to PBS/BSA in two-fold dilution steps to create a range of 0.8–50 ng/ml. Eculizumab-C5 complexes were detected as described elsewhere (Hallstensen et al., 2015 (link)).

Western Blot Analysis of JEV Antibodies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Protein samples were analyzed using the NuPAGE Bis-Tris Gel Electrophoresis system (Life Technologies). For western blotting, proteins that had been separated by gel electrophoresis were transferred onto a PVDF membrane using an iBlot 2 Gel Transfer Device (Life Technologies). The blots were blocked for 1 h with TBS-Tween (TBST; USB Corporation, Cleveland, OH, USA) containing 5% skim milk and then reacted for 1 h with a 1:100 dilution of JEV-positive human sera in the same buffer. The JEV-positive sera were pooled from five patients, which were diagnosed by using a commercial ELISA (InBios, Seattle, WA, USA) and an in-house IgG IFA [23 (link)] at the Division of Arboviruses in the KNIH. The blot was washed three times in TBST (10 min per wash) and incubated for 1 h in a 1:2,500 dilution of horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Westgrove, PA, USA). After three further washes with TBST, the blot was developed using Pierce enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagents (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).

To validate the high antibody titers to RTN1–300, an independent enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed. As antigen, a recombinant version of RTN1–300 omitting the ABD tag was used. MaxiSorp plates were coated overnight with 100 μl of RTN31–300 or BSA (5 μg/ml; no. SH30574.02, HyClone), washed five times, and blocked with 1% BSA for 1 hour. Plates were washed five times before sera from patients with MS (n = 11) and HCs (n = 11), diluted 1:30 in PBS containing 0.2% BSA and 0.05% Tween 20, and were added and incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Plates were again washed five times before developing using horseradish peroxidase–conjugated goat anti-human IgG (catalog no. 109-035-003, Jackson ImmunoResearch) for 1 hour and secondary 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (Sigma-Aldrich) for 10 min before stopping the reaction with 100 μl of 0.5 M H2SO4. Plates were read at 450 nm using a SpectraMax Plus 384 (Molecular Devices, USA) using the SoftMax Pro 7.03 software (Molecular Devices). All tests were performed in duplicate. Each individual’s optical density in the BSA wells was subtracted from the RTN1–300 wells before statistical analysis.

Bacteria from an overnight culture were washed in ice-cold PBS (VWR International) and adjusted to an OD600 nm ~ 0.1 in ice-cold PBS. ELISA plates (Nunc MaxiSorp, Nalge Nunc International, Rochester, NY) were coated with 100 µL of bacteria and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Plates with S. aureus were then blocked with 400 µg · mL−1 rabbit IgG (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), and plates with other bacterial species were blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) in PBS for 2 h at 4 °C and then washed 3× with 0.1% Tween-20 (vol/vol) in PBS (PBST). Serial dilutions of 100 µL of SAC55 or isotype control R347 were then applied to the plates and incubated for 2 h at 4 °C. The plates were washed 3 times with PBST, and bound antibody was detected with 100 µL of 1 µg · mL−1 horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat-anti-human IgG (Jackson Immunoresearch Laboratory, West Grove, PA) and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine substrate (KPL, SeraCare, Milford, MA). The reaction was stopped after 10 min with 100 μL 0.2 mol · L−1 H2SO4, and the OD450 was measured in a spectrophotometer (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA).

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.
