Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Profiles in TNFi Therapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The inflammatory profile was analyzed in the serum of HD and RA patients both, before and after 6 months of TNFi therapy, by using a multiplex-type immunoassay—Bioplex (Bio-Rad, CA, USA)—in which a panel of 27 cytokines was evaluated.
Oxidative stress parameters were determined through the evaluation of oxidation of both lipids and proteins, along with the analysis of the total antioxidant capacity. Assays of lipid peroxidation levels were carried out using the Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assay kit (Canvax Biotech, Córdoba, Spain), following the manufacturer's recommendations.
Protein nitrosylation was measured by using the Nitrotyrosine ELISA kit (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), following the manufacturer's recommendations. Serum total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was measured by quantitative colorimetric determination, using TAC Assay kit (Biovision, Mountain View, CA, USA) following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

TAC was evaluated in serum in line with the method of Koracevic et al. [48 (link)] following the manufacturer’s instructions for the TAC assay kit (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). The activity of SOD and content of MDA were assessed in (20% w/v) hepatic tissue homogenates according to previously described methods [49 (link),50 (link)], respectively. Catalase activity was measured according to the instructions of the commercial kit [51 (link)] (Biodiagnostic, Giza, Egypt).

Oxidized LDL and Antioxidant Capacity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL; cat# 10-1143-01) and glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX-1; cat# ab193767) were measured by an ELISA kit from Mercodia AB (Uppsala, Sweden) and Abcam (USA), respectively. Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was measured by the TAC Assay Kit (cat# ab65329; Abcam) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The detection range for oxidized LDL was 1.4–21.3 mU/L and for GPX-1 0.4–25 ng/mL. The intra-assay and interassay variations were 4.2% and 9.8%, respectively.

Quantification of Urinary Oxidative Stress Biomarkers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The quantifications of 8-OHdG, 8-isoprostane, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in urine samples were performed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions (8-OHdG ELISA kit, Biovision, Waltham, MA, USA, K4160-100; 8-isoprostane ELIZA kit, Enzo, Farmingdale, NY, USA, DI-900-010; and TAC Assay Kit, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA, ab52635). The procedures used in the urine biomarker assay were in accordance with our previous report [25 (link)]. The measurements of urine oxidative stress biomarker levels were further standardized based on urinary creatinine levels measured using a commercial kit (Enzo Life Sciences Inc., Farmingdale, NY, USA, ADI-907-030A).

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.
