Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (huPBMCs) from normal control (ctrl) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients were purchased from Precision for Medicine, inc (BuyPBMC). Cells were maintained in vapor phase of liquid nitrogen (−120°C). On the day of experiment, huPBMCs were thawed in 37°C water bath and gently pipetted into 10mL of complete RPMI (Corning) supplemented with 10% FBS (Atlanta Biologicals), 2mM glutamine (HyClone), 1mM HEPES (Corning) and 1mM pyruvate (Corning) and centrifuged at 500g for 10min. Media was aspirated and cells were resuspended in 1mL of complete RPMI with supplements. 100,000 cells were plated in each well of a 96 well plate and incubated overnight. Stimulation with LPS (Invivogen) was performed the next day. 200ng/ml of LPS was given to the cells for 6hrs with or without 1400W (50μM). Cells were then treated with 2mM ATP (Sigma) for 30min and media was collected for huIL-1β ELISA (DY201–05). Cellular GAPDH Activity was assessed using GAPDH activity assay kit (abcam, ab204732).

GAPDH activity in Salmonella was measured by the GAPDH activity assay kit (Abcam) as per manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, Salmonella were grown in MOPS-GLC medium at 37°C to an OD600 of 0.25. Cells were sonicated in 200 μl of ice-cold lysis buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0),100 mM NaCl). Insoluble material was removed by centrifugation at 13,000 g for 10 min at 4°C. GAPDH enzymatic activity in soluble cytoplasmic extracts was estimated by measuring the accumulation of NADH at 450 nm formed in conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate into 1, 3-bisphosphate glycerate. GAPDH activity was standardized to equal amounts of protein. GAPDH activity was calculated by linear regression using known NADH standard.

Quantifying GAPDH Enzymatic Activity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GAPDH enzymatic activity was determined by GAPDH Activity Assay Kit (ab204732, Abcam) following the manufacturer’s instructions. GAPDH catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) to 1, 3-bisphosphate glycerate (BPG) and the intermediate, NADH, which reacts with a developer to form a colored product that absorbs maximally at 450 nm. The activity of GAPDH can be reflected by measuring NADH production at 450 nm.

Recombinant human GAPDH (rhGAPDH) (Abcam, ab 82633) was used. 2 μg of rhGAPDH was transferred to HEN buffer (250 mM Hepes‐NaOH, 1 mM EDTA 0 and 1 mM neocuproine) and incubated with PBS or GP‐2250 (100 and 250 μM) at 37°C. After 0, 30 and 60 min of incubation, an aliquot was taken for the enzyme assay. The assay was conducted using the GAPDH Activity Assay Kit (Abcam Cambridge, UK, ab204732) following the manufacturer's instructions.19

GAPDH Activity Assay of CdS QD Exposure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The activity of GAPDH was determined using a GAPDH Activity Assay Kit (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The assay is based on spectrophotometric measurement of NADH formation catalysed by GAPDH. Cultures were grown for 9 and 24 h in the presence and absence of 100 mg L−1 CdS QDs were diluted to the same OD600 value of 1. Forty-five microlitre was used for the assay and the reaction was run for 60 min at 37 °C. The absorbance of the reaction mixture was measured at 450 nm in kinetic mode using the iMark™ Microplate Absorbance Reader (Bio-Rad). GAPDH activity (U) was calculated as the amount of NADH produced (nmol) per unit of time (min) and was normalised to the protein content of the whole-cell lysate determined by the Bradford Protein Assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., Hercules, CA, USA).

GAPDH Activity Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The enzyme activity of GAPDH was determined using a GAPDH Activity Assay Kit (Abcam, Cambridge, England) following the manufactures’ protocol. The assay is based on colorimetric measurement of NADH formation catalyzed by GAPDH. One million cells (106) in 10 mL medium were seeded into 35 mm petri-dish and treated with ascorbate. Cells or mouse tumor tissues were suspended in GAPDH assay buffer and subjected to homogenization and sonication. The cytosolic fraction was prepared by centrifuging the lysate at 20,000 g for 15 minutes at 4 °C, and then 20 μL were used for each reaction. The samples were incubated with GAPDH substrates and a color developer provided at 37 °C, and the OD450 nm was measured in kinetic mode for 10 minutes. For the calculation of NADH production, a standard curve was generated using NADH amount ranging from 2.5 to 12.5 nmol/reaction. Two time points in the liner range of the sample curve were used for the calculation. A positive control was provided in the kit. Background controls were samples incubated with the color developer but without GAPDH substrate. GAPDH activity (U) was calculated as the amount of NADH production (nmol) in unit time (minute), and was normalized to the protein content of the whole-cell lysate detected by the bicinchoninic acid protein method (Pierce Biotechnology).

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.
