Anti-inflammatory Activity Assay in RAW264.7 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Anti-inflammatory
activity was evaluated in the RAW264.7 cell line. The estimated TNF-α
content level after LPS exposure reflected the anti-inflammatory activity.
The TNF-α concentration of the cell culture supernatants was
determined using the TNF-α ELISA kit (BioVision, US). The experiment
was started after overnight culture in a 24-well plate (1 × 105 cells/well, 500 μL medium/well), the cells were pretreated
with the fucoidan extract (0.25–1 μg/mL) for 1 h and
1 μg/mL LPS for additional 24 h, and the culture supernatant
from each well was collected at the end of scheduled experiments and
used to measure TNF-α concentration. Quercetin, which is a strong
inhibitor for proinflammatory cytokine production, was used as the
positive control and a concentration of 50 μM was used for the
pretreatment before the LPS was treated on cells.

Fecal pH was measured using a portable pH meter. The three main SCFAs (acetate, butyrate and propionate) were analyzed in accordance with the methods described by Freire et al.19 Another 10 g of fresh fecal samples was collected on a pen basis, stored on an ice cooler and then transported to the laboratory for fecal microbial analysis.

Myocardial levels (n = 8–10 samples) of oxidative stress and inflammatory markers were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and colorimetric assay kits: 3-nitrotyrosine ELISA kit (ab116691; Abcam), lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde) assay kit (ab118970; Abcam), interleukin-6 (IL6) ELISA kit (ab100772; Abcam), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1) ELISA kit (ERICAM1; Thermo Fisher Scientific), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM1) ELISA kit (KHT0601; Thermo Fisher Scientific), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) ELISA kit (ab108913; Abcam). Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was assessed in LV tissue homogenates (n = 8–10/group). Samples containing equal amounts of total protein were analyzed for H2O2 formation. H2O2 formation was measured by colorimetry at 540 nm. Results were converted using the standard curve for a known concentration of H2O2.

LPS-induced Inflammation Assay in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The experimental procedures were approved (Approval number: 202003A-CNU-062) by the Animal Ethics Committee in Chungnam National University, and animal experiments were carried out per the approved protocols.
For animal experiments, all of the compounds were first pulverized with Tween 20 and then diluted with saline (1:99) to maximize the solubility of compounds in water [30 (link)]. The compounds in the saline/Tween 20 solution (2.5, 0.83 and 0.28 mg/mL, respectively) was administered via oral gavage (200 µL per injection). Mice (male BALB/C, 8 weeks; Samtako, Osan, Korea) were pretreated orally with individual compounds for 4 days. Two hours after the last treatment, the mice were injected i.p. with LPS (0.1 mg/kg) [31 (link)]. Ninety min after the LPS injection, the blood was collected, and the concentration of TNF-α in the blood was measured with TNF-α ELISA kit (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). The experiment was performed with 3 mice per group.

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.
