Similar to a previous NET ELISA assay [46 (link)], Costar 96-well high binding ELISA plates (Corning, NY, USA) were coated overnight at 4 °C with 5 μg/mL anti-human myeloperoxidase (clone 4A4, Bio-Rad) diluted in 1X coating buffer from the Cell Death Detection ELISA kit (MilliporeSigma, Burlington, MA, USA). Then, plates were washed four times with wash buffer (0.2% Tween-20 in PBS), blocked with 5% non-fat dry milk in PBS for 2 h at room temperature, washed four times, and incubated overnight at 4 °C with plasma samples diluted 1:50 in 1% BSA in PBS. Wells were then washed four times, incubated for 2 h at room temperature with anti-DNA-POD (Cell Death Detection ELISA kit, MilliporeSigma) diluted 1X in 1% BSA in PBS, washed four times, incubated with 1-Step Ultra TMB-ELISA Substrate Solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for 10 min, then stopped with 0.2 N H2SO4. Absorbance was read at 450 nm with 540 nm plate correction, using a Synergy 2 plate reader (BioTek) and normalized to a neutrophil NET standard. The neutrophil NET standard was generated by incubating a known number of purified neutrophils with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and ionomycin overnight at 37 °C with 5% CO2. After 100% NETosis was visualized, NETs were scraped from the plate and stored at −80 °C.

NET Quantification from PRP-Stimulated Neutrophils

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 1.5 × 106 neutrophils were cultured in RPMI culture medium for 3.5 h in the presence of PRP, as described in the above section. Unstimulated neutrophils served as control (control NETs). Afterwards, the medium was removed, and cells were washed twice with pre-warmed RPMI medium. NET structures were collected in the supernatant phase, upon vigorous agitation of the culture plate and centrifugation at 20 ×g for 5 min [31 (link),32 (link)]. They were kept undigested at -20 °C till analyzed. The quantification of NETs in supernatants was assessed by MPO/DNA complex ELISA (Cell Death Detection ELISA Kit, Merck), as previously described [33 (link)].

Lipid Starvation and Rescue in Mouse Hepatocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse primary hepatocytes were isolated following a 2-step collagenase digestion protocol and then cultured in William’s E medium with 10% FBS on collagen-coated plates. For lipid starvation, cells were rinsed with serum-free medium and then placed in medium containing 10% delipidated FBS (Gemini Bio). We prepared 30% lipid medium by mixing normal FBS and delipidated FBS at a ratio of 3:7. Cell death was evaluated using the Cell Death Detection ELISA Kit (Merck). GW3965 (Sigma-Aldrich) was dissolved in DMSO and added to medium at 5 μM. C20:4 (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co.) was dissolved in ethanol. For experiments using adenoviral vectors, mouse primary hepatocytes were infected with each adenoviral vector at 24 hours after isolation. After overnight incubation, the virus-containing medium was removed and replaced with fresh medium. Cells were infected with Ad-Cre at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 60 for Cre-loxP–dependent gene recombination. PC(16:0_20:4) and PC(18:0_20:4) were purchased from Avanti Polar Lipids, and ER-targeting liposome (PC[16:0_20:4]:PC[18:0_20:4]:dioleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine:dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylserine at a molar ratio of 1:1:2:1) was generated by Beacle Inc.

NETs release in culture and plasma was quantified with Quanti-IT Pico
Green double stranded (ds) DNA kits (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using lambda DNA
as quantitation standards in accordance with manufacturers recommendations. To
capture NET fragments from BALF 100 μg of rabbit polyclonal Chip grade
Abs specific for citrullinated histone H3 (Abcam) or 500 μg control
rabbit polyclonal Abs (Jackson Labs) were conjugated to 1.7 mg of 0.3 mm
diameter IDC UltraClean Amidine Latex beads (Fisher Thermo Scientific) in
accordance with manufacturers recommendations. BALF was split into two 1.5 ml
aliquots and incubated with either 250 μg H3 citrullinated Ab-beads or
control Ab-beads at 4 °C for 3 hours. Beads were then washed twice in
cold PBS and directly quantified for dsDNA content with Pico Green relative to
dsDNA content adsorbed to control Ab-beads. MPO-DNA complex detection in
circulating plasma was conducted with MPO ELISA kit plates (ThermoFisher
Scientific) precoated with MPO capture Abs. Then following plasma incubation for
3 hours at 4° C and 3 washes of cold ELISA washer buffer plates were
incubated with anti-DNA peroxidase conjugated Abs from a Cell Death Detection
ELISA kit (Sigma), washed three times, and incubated with ABTS solution (Sigma)
for 20 minutes. Complexes were quantified as optical density at 405 nm using a
Synergy Multimode reader (Biotek).

Quantifying NET Levels in Serum

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Circulating DNA levels have been reported as a marker of NET formation19 (link). We used a capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to quantify the NET levels in the serum as previously described14 (link). The commercially available Cell Death Detection ELISA kit (Sigma, 11544675001) and the MPO Mouse ELISA kit (Hycult Biotech, Frontstraat 2a, 5405 PB Uden, The Netherlands) were used to determine the NET concentrations in the serum. The optical density (OD) between 405 and 490 nm was measured to reflect the concentration of cfDNA in the serum. Values for the formation of soluble NETs are presented as the fold induction with the values of the sham group set to 1.

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.
