Comprehensive Blood Parameter Profiling

Five milliliters of blood was drawn from a vein using disposable syringes and then divided into two parts.
Two milliliters were transferred into an anticoagulant EDTA tube, which was used for the measurement of HbA1c and complete blood picture. HbA1c determination based on the turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay (TINIA) by using Cobas c 111 auto analyzer and a kit supplied by Roche company (Germany) (12) (link). Hemoglobin, RBCs, WBCs, Platelets, HCT, MCV, MCH and MCHC were all estimated in whole blood using Mythic 18 hematology auto analyzer (Orphee, France). The remaining blood was transferred into a plain tube, allowed to clot, centrifuged and analysed. Serum ferritin was determined through an automated enzyme-linked uorescent immunoassay (ELFA) using a kit supplied by BioMérieux (France) performed on a VIDAS device. Serum EPO was estimated, according to manufacturer instructions, by sandwich enzyme immunoassay test using universal microplate reader from BIO-TEK and a kit supplied by ELK Biotechnology (China). Glucose, creatinine, urea and uric acid were determined in serum photometrically using Cobas c111 auto analyzer and kits supplied by Roche company (Germany) (12, (link)13) .

Quantitative BAL Cell Analysis

The total cell numbers, alveolar macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) recovered by BAL were determined using a Beckman Coulter Multisizer 4 Analyzer (Beckman Coulter Indianapolis, IN, USA). Cells were differentiated using a Cytospin 3 centrifuge (Shandon Life Sciences International, Cheshire, England). Cell suspensions (1 × 105 cells) were spun for 5 min at 72 × g and pelleted onto a slide. The cytospin preparations were stained with modified Wright–Giemsa stain, and cell differentials were determined by light microscopy. Differential cell counts were calculated by multiplying the total cell counts (~200 per rat) by the cell differential percentage obtained from the cytospin preparations. Using the acellular fraction of BALF, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, an indicator of general cell damage and toxicity, was measured. LDH activity was determined by measuring the oxidation of lactate to pyruvate coupled with the formation of NADH at 340 nm. Measurements were performed with a COBAS C111 auto-analyzer (Roche Diagnostics USA, Indianapolis, IN, USA).

Fasting Blood Lipid Profile in Rats

Rats were fasted for 6 hours with free access to water before blood samples were collected from the saphenous vein at baseline and 8 weeks for Phases 1 and 2, with additional collections at 10 and 12 weeks for Phase 2. Serum HDL-C, LDL-C, TC, and TG concentrations were determined using a Cobas c111 auto analyzer (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN, USA). Fasting blood collection was performed on separate days from the vascular measurements.

Standardized Creatinine and Cystatin C Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum creatinine levels were measured by means of an isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) traceable assays both at PGI (modified Jaffe’s method using Cobas C111 auto-analyzer, Roche Diagnostics Limited) and in a central lab in Japan (enzymatic creatinine assay [5 (link)] using Hitachi creatinine auto-analyzer, model 7170, Hitachi). Serum Cys levels were measured in a central lab by colloidal gold immunoassay (Alfresa Pharma, http://www.alfresa-pharma.co.jp) which has been standardized for measurement of cystatin C traceable to ERM-DA471/IFCC [10 (link)].

Fasting Blood Lipid and Glucose Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A 40 mL fasting blood sample was collected from the antecubital vein into evacuated tubes and centrifuged at 1100× g at 4 °C for 20 min. EDTA-plasma was separated, stored at −80 °C, and analyzed with a Cobas C111 auto analyzer (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). The biomarkers were total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, hsCRP, and glucose. Insulin was measured via Radioimmunoassay (Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany). The Homeostatic Model of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated with the formula of fasting insulin (mU/mL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/405 [90 (link)].

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.
