Plasma was separated from the whole blood morning samples drawn from each child and stored in -80°C until assay. Commercially available ELISA kits specific for each cytokine were used to measure levels of interleukin (IL) -6, IL-18, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, adiponectin, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, apelin C, leptin (all individual kits from RayBiotech, Inc., Norcross, GA, USA), adropin (Peninsula laboratories LLC, San Carlos, CA, USA), osteocrin (MyBioSource, San Diego, CA, USA), and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 (Assaypro LLC, St. Charles, MO, USA). Assays were performed according to manufacturers’ recommendations.

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.
