Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Expression of identified DECRs was validated further in clinical samples by RT-qPCR. RNA isolation and RT-qPCR were undertaken as described previously (Zhou et al., 2021 (link)). In brief, red blood cell (RBC) lysis buffer (catalog number: C3702; Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) was used to split RBCs. Subsequent extraction of total RNA by TRIzol® Reagent and synthesis of complementary-DNA were carried out according to manufacturer (Takara Biotechnology, Shiga, Japan) protocols. mRNA expression was quantified using the ABI-9700 system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, United States) and normalized against the housekeeping gene β-actin by the comparative quantification method (2−ΔΔCT). The primers used in this study are listed in Supplementary Table S2.

The setup of mouse experiments was approved by the institutional regulation of Model Animal Research Center of Soochow University (Suzhou, China). Operation and termination of mice were performed according to the criteria of the animal welfare office of Soochow University.
Macrophages from mouse were isolated at the age of 6 weeks. Mice were injected with 1 ml liquid paraffin intraperitoneally 3 days before isolation according to Ray’s method [13 ]. At the time of isolation, mice were euthanized and sterilized with 70% ethanol. It was immediately followed by the intraperitoneally injection of 5 ml cold RPMI using a 27 g needle. After gently massage the peritoneum, ascitic fluid was collected using a 25 g needle. Peritoneum was opened by incision and the remaining fluid was collected by Pasteur pipette. Cell suspension was washed once with cold PBS and treated with RBC lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) for 1 min to get rid of erythrocytes. Three hours after seeding, the adherent cells were gently washed once with PBS and cultured in full RPMI medium for further analysis. Enriched macrophages were identified and counted by flow cytometry (CytoFLEX, Beckman Coulter, CA, USA).

Spleens, Peyer’s patches (PPs) and MLNs were collected on sacrifice under sterile conditions. Single cell suspensions were prepared from spleen, PP, and MLN by pressing a piston and through a cell strainer, and the collected cells were washed with PBS. To isolate splenocytes, red blood cells were removed by RBC lysis buffer (Beyotime, Jiangsu, China). Then the lymphocytes and splenocytes were used as starting material for further analyses including RT-qPCR, ELISA, and flow cytometry.

Male C57BL/6 mice (six-week-old male, 18-20 g) were sacrificed by cervical dislocation under anesthetization and disinfected with 75% alcohol for 3-5 min. The femurs and tibiae were carefully isolated and flushed with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Gibco, USA). Cells were centrifugated at 300 ×g for 10 min, and re-suspended using red blood cell (RBC) lysis buffer (500 μl, Beyotime, China) for 10 min. Cells were centrifugated at 300 ×g for 10 min, and were re-suspended using PBS. Cells were re-suspended in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco) in culture flasks at a density of 1 × 105 cells/ml. Adherent cells were cultured by changing the medium every 3 days and the cells were used for subsequent experiments following 3 passages.

For isolation of cells, fresh mouse brain samples were cut into pieces and digested in DMEM supplemented with collagenase IV (1 mg/ml, Gibco), DNase I (20 U/ml, Sigma-Aldrich) and hyaluronidase (0.01%, Solarbio) for 30 min at 37 °C. After digestion, the cells were filtered through a 70-μm strainer, and Debris Removal Solution (130-109-398, Miltenyi Biotec) was applied to remove myelin according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cell pellets were then treated with RBC lysis buffer (C3702, Beyotime) and resuspended in FACS staining buffer (PBS containing 2% FBS).

Femur samples were collected, bone marrow was extracted, single cells were collected, and they were centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 min at 4 °C, after which the supernatant was discarded. The pellet was lysed in 1 × RBC lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) for 15 min. The surface markers of each cell type were quantified by flow cytometry, and the number of cells used for analysis was 1 × 106/tube.
Monoclonal antibodies FITC-Lin-, APC-c-kit, and PE-sca1 were used for the detection of LSK cells in bone marrow. Monoclonal antibodies against PE-Ly6C and FITC-F4/80 were used to detect changes in the number of monocytes and macrophages in mouse bone marrow; the flow antibody list is shown in the Table 4. The 1 × 106 cells were washed twice with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and resuspended in 100 µL PBS containing monoclonal antibodies and incubated at 4 °C for 30 min. The cells were then washed twice and resuspended in 200 µL PBS. A flow cytometer (Aria II, USA) was used for fluorescence analysis. Percentages of positive cells were evaluated based on fluorescence intensity.

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.
