Determination of Necrosis by LDH

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For determination of necrosis, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was used as biomarker. Effluents of each group were collected for LDH assay over 3 min directly before global ischemia and four times over 3 min immediately after the start of reperfusion. LDH was assayed with the use of a commercially available assay (l-lactate dehydrogenase, Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Optical density was measured in duplicate for each sample and multiplied by the respective coronary flow.

Quantifying Cellular Metabolic Activity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Glucose and lactate concentrations at each plating density were quantified in cell culture medium collected every 24 h. Glucose concentration was determined spectrophotometrically at 340 nm using the Glucose Assay Reagent (Sigma-Aldrich). Lactate concentration determination is based on the l-lactate-to-pyruvate transformation mediated by l-lactate dehydrogenase (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany) in the presence of NAD+, with subsequent spectrophotometric quantification of the NADH co-product at 340 nm. Both glucose consumption and lactate production are expressed as the difference in the concentration in medium every 24 h normalized to cellular protein content, determined by SRB assay at the corresponding time point.

Native-PAGE Mobility Assay for ADP-Ribosylation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Native-PAGE mobility assays were carried out in the same way as the fluorescence-based assays using non-fluorescent NAD+, 5 nM TccC3, and actin-binding reagents (final concentration are indicated in Figure 1B and Figure S2) at 20 °C in Eppendorf tubes. The reactions were stopped by the addition of quenching buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 100 mM L-lactate, 300 mM hydrazine, 60 U/mL L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH from rabbit muscle; Roche, Mannheim, Germany)) [78 (link)]. Quenched reactions were resolved on 10% native polyacrylamide gels devoid of SDS and supplemented with 0.2 mM Ca2+ and 0.2 mM ATP. Gel electrophoresis was performed at 100 V using running buffer containing 25 mM Tris-HCl, 192 mM glycine, 0.1 mM Ca2+, 0.1 mM ATP, at 4 °C. Densitometry analysis of the bands corresponding to unmodified actin and ADPR-actin was performed using ImageJ software [79 (link)] to assess the degree of ADP-ribosylation and the activity of TccC3.

Measurement of LDH and Caspase 3/7 in RSV-Infected Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LDH and caspase 3/7 were measured in the supernatants of RSV-infected HEp-2 and A549 cells as previously described (20 (link)). In brief, total LDH activity was measured in the supernatant using the LDH Cytotoxic Detection Kit Plus, (Roche Applied Science, Indianapolis, IN, USA) following protocol instructions. l-lactate dehydrogenase (Roche Applied Science) was used to construct a standard curve that demonstrated linear dynamic range (r = 0.998) at the dilutions tested from 3.9 to 125 milliunits per milliliter (mU/mL). Caspase 3/7, a marker of apoptosis, was measured using the Caspase-Glo-3/7 kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). The luminescence assay was measured using a Biotek Synergy H1 microplate reader (Biotek) and reported as relative luminescence units (RLU). Purified caspase 3 from ENZO (catalog no. BML-SE169) was used as the standard for Caspase Glo 3/7 assays and Gen5 Imager Software was used for analysis.

Measuring Cellular Injury and Apoptosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total LDH activity was measured in apical wash and basolateral samples using a previously described method (22 (link)) . Apical wash and basolateral samples were assayed following protocol instructions (Cytotoxic Detection Kit, Roche Applied Science). To calculate absolute values, L-lactate dehydrogenase (Roche Applied Science) was used to construct a standard curve that demonstrated an ample linear dynamic range (r2≥0.998) at the dilutions tested from 0.8 to 110 milliunits per milliliter (mU/mL).
LDH release may be a marker of cell injury or death caused by virus or may be due to apoptosis induced by virus. To measure a marker of apoptosis in apical wash and basolateral samples, the Caspase-Glo-3/7 kit (Promega) was used as previously described (22 (link)). The luminescence of caspase was measured with a Synergy H1 microplate reader (Agilent Technologies) and expressed as relative luminescence units (RLU) and converted to units per milliliter (U/mL). A standard curve was constructed that demonstrated an ample linear dynamic range (r2>0.998).

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.
