Isolated neutrophils were plated at a density of 9×106 cells per well in a 6-well plate. Then, 500 nM PMA (HY-18739, MedChemExpress) was added to each well and incubated in a 37 °C, 5% CO2 incubator for 3 h 40 (link). The samples were collected by scraping the cells and transferred to new centrifuge tubes, which were then centrifuged at 450 g and 4 °C for 10 min. The resulting supernatant contained NETs, whose concentration was measured using the Quant-iT Picogreen dsDNA Assay Kit (P11496, Thermo Fisher). NETs were confirmed by staining with SYTOX Orange (S11368, Thermo Fisher) and visualized using confocal microscopy (LSM 880, Zeiss).

HEK293 cells were maintained and transfected using Lipofectamine 3000 transfection reagent (L3000008, Thermo Fisher). HEK293 cells expressing GluR1 WT or GluR1 S831A were stimulated with 200 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, HY-18739, Med ChemExpress) for 15 min at room temperature. The cells were then fixed immediately in 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 20 mM EGTA and 4% (w/v) sucrose. The fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100, blocked with 7.5% normal donkey serum, and incubated overnight at 4°C with the following primary antibodies: rabbit anti-pGluR1 S831 (1:1000, AB5847, Millipore) and mouse anti-GluR1 (1:500, MAB2263, Millipore). The cells then were washed with PBS for 10 min, and then incubated at room temperature for 1 hr with the appropriate Alexa Fluor secondary antibodies (1:2000, A21202, A21206, A31570–31573, Invitrogen/Life Technologies), followed by a 30-min wash in PBS. The cells were imaged using a Nikon A1 confocal microscope with a 40X objective.

The capability of the sericin to influence polarization in the U937 cell was evaluated. U937 cells at a density of 6 × 106 cells/well were incubated in a complete RPMI-1640 medium for 24 h at 37°C in 5% CO2. Cells were treated with 100 ng/ml phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; Cat. No.: HY-18739, MedChemExpress, United States) for macrophage activation, and then treated with 0.1 and 1.0 mg/ml of sericin, and 10 ng/ml of LPS (Escherichia coli 055: B5, Cat. No.: HY-D1056, MedChemExpress, United States), respectively. The cells were incubated for 24 h. The medium was removed before treatment with 1 μg/ml of LPS, and cells were washed with 5 ml of PBS and replenished with a complete medium. Cells treated with 10 ng/ml LPS alone were used as the control. After incubation, the cells were washed twice with PBS and resuspended in 0.5 ml of staining buffer PBS containing 1% FBS and 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide.

Cell-free NETs were isolated from neutrophils of GC patients as previously described, with modifications[38 ]. Neutrophils (107 cells/mL) were cultured for 4 h at 37°C under 5% CO2 in medium supplemented with 500 nM PMA (HY-18739; MedChemExpress, Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA). The supernatant was discarded, and ice-cold 1 × PBS was added to wash down the cell layer of neutrophils to obtain the NET medium and centrifuged at 1500 g for 10 min at 4°C to remove cell debris. Thereafter, 1.5 mL supernatant (sterile DNA–protein complex) was centrifuged at 15 000 g for 15 min at 4°C. The resultant pellets were suspended in ice-cold 1 × PBS, followed by DNA concentration measurement in the medium obtained using spectrophotometry (Biospec-nano, Japan). An adequate DNA concentration in the medium should range between 50 and 100 μg/mL. The medium containing the NETs was stored at -80°C for subsequent experiments.

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.
