Sterile blood was collected at the time of harvest, allowed to clot at room temperature for 5 minutes and then centrifuged at 5000g for 10 minutes. Serum was removed, aliquoted and snap frozen and in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80°C. Serum tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP5b) and osteocalcin (OC) were measured using mouse TRAP (Immunodiagnostic Systems Inc., Fountain Hills, AZ) and OC assay kits (Biomedical Technologies Inc., Stoughton, MA), respectively, according to manufacturer’s protocol.

We determined serum IL-4 and IL-13 levels using the Mouse Cytokine Antibody Array (R&D Systems, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA) in duplicate; we quantified the density using Image J software and normalized it to that of the positive control. We determined serum resorption marker TRAP5b (TRAP) with MouseTRAP (TRAcP 5b) ELISA (Catalogue number: SB-TR103, Immuno Diagnosticsystems, Gaithersburg, MD). TNF and IL-1β levels were determined with Quantikine ELISA Kits from R&D Systems (Catalogue number: MTA00B and MLB00C) following the instructions from the manufacturers.

Serum Biomarkers of Bone Metabolism

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum samples were obtained by cardiac puncture at sacrifice followed by centrifugation in serum separator tubes (BD Microtainer #365967, Franklin Lakes, NJ) and stored at −80°C until analysis. A mouse TRAcP-5b ELISA (MouseTrap™; #SB-TR103, Immunodiagnostic Systems, Gaithersburg, MD) was used to measure the circulating bone resorption marker tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b. Additional aliquots of serum were analyzed in a rat/mouse procollagen I intact N-terminal (P1NP) enzyme immunoassay (#AC-33F1, Immunodiagnostic Systems, Gaithersburg, MD) for quantification of bone formation markers. Serum glucocorticoids were measured using a corticosterone ELISA (#ab108821, Abcam, Cambridge, MA) using a 100-fold dilution of mouse serum and provided protocols. All ELISA plates were measured with a microplate reader (BioTek Synergy HT, Winooski, VT) using Gen5 software and readings at 405 (P1NP) and 450 nm (TRAcP-5b, Corticosterone) wavelengths, as recommended for each assay. Serum data were normalized to calibrants and standards provided in respective ELISA kits.

Quantification of Bone Markers PINP and TRAcP5b

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum levels of the bone formation marker procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP; Mouse/Rat PINP, Immunodiagnostic Systems) and the bone resorption marker tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAcP5b, Mouse TRAP, Immunodiagnostic Systems) were quantified by enzyme immunoassays. Serum tests were performed in duplicate.

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.
