Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
H1299 (1.5 × 105 cells) and MCF-7 (3.0 × 105 cells) were seeded into a Costar® 24-well plate (Corning, NY, USA) and cultured for 24 h at 37 °C with 5% CO2 to form a confluent cell monolayer. After the cells reached confluence, the medium was removed and PBS buffer was used to wash the cells. The monolayer was then scratched with a 200 µL pipette tip, and the cells were treated with 150 µM EA or MDSA at 37 °C and 5% CO2 for 48 h. Using a Lionheart FX automated microscope (BioTek®, Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA), the bright field images of the cells were acquired and analyzed.

Cells were seeded and differentiated in a Costar 24-well plate (Corning) at 100,000 cells/well on 13 mm cover glass. After the incubation, cells were fixed for 30 minutes with 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature.

Human gingival fibroblasts, at a seeding density of 5 × 105/well, were cultured in a Costar® 24-well plate (Corning Life Sciences, Corning, NY, USA) in D-MEM medium at 37 °C in an atmosphere of 5% CO2. After the incubation period, fresh medium without antibiotics was added to HGFs, before they were treated with P. gingivalis. HGFs were stimulated with bacteria, at multiplicities of infection (MOI) of 1:100 for 24 h, and with cystatin C at a concentration of 0.3 µg/mL at 37 °C for 24 h, to perform cytokine assays, and evaluate ROS, and NO. Control groups include HGFs without stimulation or stimulated with LPS and peptidoglycans.

Epithelial Sheet Isolation for Ex Vivo Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vaginal and skin tissue was freshly processed for each experiment. To obtain epithelial sheets, vaginal and skin tissue was treated with dispase II (3 U/ml for vaginal tissue and 1 U/ml for skin; Roche Diagnostics), after which the epithelium/epidermis was separated from the rest of the tissue. Ex vivo vaginal epithelial explants were extensively washed, cut to size, and placed in a Transwell system (6.5 mm Transwell, 5.0 μm pore polycarbonate membrane inserts; Corning) complete medium (IMDM; Thermo Fisher Science) supplemented with 10% FCS (Invitrogen), L‐glutamine (2 mM; Lonza), penicillin (10 U/ml; Invitrogen), and streptomycin (10 mg/ml; Invitrogen), containing the according stimuli. Ex vivo skin explants were prepared in a Costar® 24‐well plate (Corning) in complete medium containing the according stimuli as described before (Hertoghs et al, 2019 (link)).

Quantifying cGAMP in Transfected HEK 293T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HEK 293T cells were seeded in Costar 24-well plate (Corning, 3526) at 2 × 105 cells per well and cultured at 37 °C with 5% CO2. After 24 h, the cells were transfected with 1.5 ng pcDNA3.1-human cGAS plasmids or 0.05ng pcDNA3.1-mouse cGAS plasmids using the Lipofectamine 2000 according to the manufacture’s manual. Twenty four hours later, the cells were further transfected with 10 μg/ml salmon sperm DNA using Lipofectamine 2000 or with Lipofectamine 2000 alone. After 4 h, the cells were washed with 1×PBS once and lysed in 200 μl M-PER™ buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 78501). After centrifugation at 15000 rpm for 10 mins at 4 °C, cGAMP in the supernatant was quantified using cGAMP ELISA kit (Cayman Chemical, 501700) according to the manufacture’s manual.

Cell Attachment Evaluation on Materials

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To study the attachment of MC3T3-E1 cells on the material surfaces, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was performed to analyze the numbers of attached cells on material surfaces cultured for 6, 12, and 24 hours. Before seeding the cells, three disks for each group were put into the wells of a Costar 24-well plate (Corning Incorporated, NY, USA). The cell suspension was seeded into each well at a density of 3×104 viable cells per cm2 of sample, with DMEM as a blank control. The culture plates were incubated at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2. At each time point, the samples were gently rinsed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to remove the unattached cells then transferred to a new 24-well plate, and 50 μL CCK-8 solution (Dojindo Molecular Technologies Inc., Kumamoto, Japan) was added to each well. The plates were then incubated for 3 hours. At the end of this period, 100 μL of the supernatant was transferred into a 96-well plate. The plates were then read at 450 nm (with 620 nm as the reference wavelength) using a Synergy HT microplate reader (Bio-Tek Instruments Ltd, Winooski, VT, USA). The mean optical density (OD) obtained from the blank control was subtracted from the ODs of the test groups.

Allogeneic T cell functional assays were performed in a Corning Costar
24-well plate (3526) using 0, 200,000 (200k), or 500,000 (500k) iDCs generated
in MicroDEN or a 6-well plate. Each well contained 1 million allogeneic T cells.
CellGenix DCM was used as the base medium and was supplemented with 1%
penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco 15140122) and 5% Human AB Serum (Sigma Aldrich
H4522). T cells were stained with CellTrace Far Red to evaluate proliferation.
The 24-well plate was covered in foil to protect from light and placed in the
incubator (37 °C and 5% CO2) for 5 days. At harvest, the cell
solution was aspirated and the wells were washed 2 times with cold DPBS (4
°C) to collect remaining cells. Data was analyzed using FCS Express 6
Flow software.

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.
