For IFN-γ secretion measurement, human purified NK cells were stimulated with IL-2 (100 IU/ml). After 72 h, activated NK cells were washed twice and mixed with untreated or SR141716-treated glioma target cells in 200 μl of complete medium. Cells were incubated for the indicated time. Thereafter, supernatants were collected and stored at −20°C pending measurement. The concentration of IFN-γ was measured by ELISA assay according to manufacturer's specification (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). For TGF-beta1 secretion measurement, human primary glioma cell lines were plated into p60 tissue culture plates at a densities of 20 × 103 cells/cm2 and were allowed to grow for 24 h. Afterwards cells were washed with PBS and treated with vehicle or test substance in complete medium. After 24 h supernatants were collected and stored at −20°C pending measurement. The concentration of TGF-beta1 was measured by ELISA assay (LEGEND MAX™ Total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit, BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA). Cells were treated in triplicates and ELISA were done in duplicates for each cell sample.

At 7, 14, and 21 days, after the in vivo imaging, subsets of 5 (Sal), 5 (BLM), 5 (Sal + ICG), and 12 (BLM + ICG) mice were euthanized with an overdose of anesthetic followed by bleeding from the abdominal aorta. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was then harvested by gently washing the lungs with 0.6-mL sterile Hank’s balanced salt solution (HBSS) containing 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 100 mM 4-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-1-piperazineethansulphonic acid (HEPES); the collected fluid was centrifuged at 300 g for 10 min at 4°C. The cell pellet was resuspended in 0.2 mL of phosphate buffer solution (PBS), and leukocytes and cell populations were determined using an automated cell counter (Dasit XT 1800 J, Sysmex), while supernatants were frozen at −80°C. At a later time, BAL supernatants were thawed, and the levels of multiple cytokines and chemokines were determined, using a Magnetic Luminex Assay (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN), according to the manufacturer’s instructions; neutrophil elastase and total TGF-β1 levels were determined with the SimpleStep ELISA Kit (Abcam) and the LEGEND MAX Total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit (Biolegend), respectively.

CD34+ HPCs, NHDF, or Kasumi-3 cells were maintained as described above. For analysis of cytokine-containing supernatant, cells were transferred to serum-free culture media at equivalent densities and cultured for the indicated times as described in Figures 1, 3, and 4 as well as Supplemental Table 1. Quantification of total TGF-β was performed on duplicate samples using the LegendMAX total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit (Biolegend) following the manufacturer’s instructions and absorbance read at a wavelength of 450nm. Samples for multiplex cytokine analysis were obtained the same way and analyzed using the Cytokine Human Magnetic 30-plex panel (ThermoFisher) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and read on a Luminex LX-200.

The supernatants were collected and centrifuged at 500g and 4°C for 5 minutes, and the supernatants were collected carefully and stored at –20°C prior to ELISA. TGF-β1 activity was estimated by ELISA using a LEGEND MAX Free Active TGFβ-1 ELISA Kit and LEGEND MAX Total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit (BioLegend) according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Briefly, standards and 50 μL of supernatants were loaded into the wells, and the absorbance were measured at 450 nm using a Synergy-LX multimode reader (BioTek) and analyzed by Gen5 Microplate Reader and Imager software (BioTek). Each of the standard and samples were tested in duplicate.

CM from melanoma cells or supernatants from macrophages were used for sandwich ELISA experiments using commercially available kits (see also the table for reagents above). 96-well NUNC clear flat-bottom plates were coated with antibodies (IL-10, IL-8, IL-1α and TNF-α) and incubated O/N at 4°C in a humified chamber. ELISA MAX™ standard sets (Biolegend) were used for the detection of IL-10, IL-8 and TNF-α; ELISA MAX Deluxe (Biolegend) for IL1-α; and for TGF-β, LEGEND MAX Total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit with pre-coated plates was used (Biolegend). Microwell absorbance was read at 450 nm on a Thermo Scientific Multiskan EX microplate reader. All samples were quantified based on a standard curve using Microsoft Excel.

For the detection of transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ), IL-10 and IL-35, ascites was collected from tumor-bearing triple oncogene IP/EP mice by 18-gauge needles before they were sacrificed. For the double oncogene IP/EP and naïve mice, 3 mL of PBS was IP injected to the mice and mix gently for 1 min, followed by removal of the peritoneal washed fluid by 18-gauge needles. TGFβ levels were measured from the cell-free ascites using LEGEND MAX Total TGF-β1 ELISA Kit (Biolegend), IL-10 levels were measured by the Mouse IL-10 ELISA Kit (Thermo Fisher), and IL-35 levels were measured by the LEGEND MAX Mouse IL-35 Heterodimer ELISA Kit (Biolegend) following the manufacturers’ instructions.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The concentrations of total TGF-β1 in serum were measured using the Legend Max Total TGF-β1 ELISA kit (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, the capture antibody-coated wells in Nunc C bottom immunoplates supplied in the kit were washed 3 times with washing solution. The serum samples and standards were then added to the wells, after which the plates were incubated at room temperature for 2 h. After washing 3 times, TGF-β1 detection antibody solution was added to each well followed by incubation at room temperature for 1 h with shaking. The wells were then washed with washing solution, after which HRP-conjugated detection antibodies were diluted 5,000-fold with conjugate diluent (50 mM Tris, 0.14 M NaCl, 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween-20, pH 8.0) and transferred to each well. The plates were subsequently incubated at room temperature for 30 min, then washed 3 times with washing solution. An enzyme reaction was initiated by adding substrate solution and incubating the plate at room temperature in the dark for 30 min. Finally, the reaction was terminated by adding a stop solution, and the absorbance at 450 nm was measured within 30 min using a microplate reader (Molecular Device, Sunnyvale, CA, USA).

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.
