ATP and ADP hydrolysis activities of live parasites, or intact CHO-S cells (expressing recombinant SmATPDase1), or mock transfected cells, were determined as described above with slight modifications. Briefly, live parasites, or CHO-S cells, were first washed 3 times in isotonic wash solution (20 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.4 containing 0.13 M NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM CaCl2, 10 mM Glucose). Next, a specific number of parasites or cells were resuspended in 100 µl isotonic wash solution. Reactions were started by the addition of a 100 µl of the same buffer containing ATP or ADP to produce a final concentration of 2 mM. Released inorganic phosphates were measured using the Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit (BioVision) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Quantifying Cell Cytotoxicity and Biomarkers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in supernatants were measured by using the LDH Cytotoxicity Assay Kit according to manufacturer instructions (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The assay relies on conversion of lactate to pyruvate via NAD+ reduction to NADH by LDH. Diaphorase then uses NADH to reduce a tetrazolium salt (INT) to a red formazan product that can be measured at 490 nm. The level of formazan formation is directly proportional to the amount of LDH released into the medium, which is indicative of cytotoxicity. Absorbance at 490 and 680 nm was measured using a Tecan infinite M1000 pro microplate Reader (Tecan, Männerdorf, Switzerland). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) content was measured using the ALP colorimetric assay kit, according to manufacturer’s instructions (BioVision, Milpitas, CA, USA). The kit uses p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) as a phosphatase substrate, which turns yellow (405 nm) when dephosphorylated by ALP. Phosphate content was measured using the phosphate colorimetric assay kit, according to manufacturer’s instructions (BioVision, CA, USA). The assay utilizes a formulation of malachite green and ammonium molybdate, which forms a chromogenic complex with phosphate ions. The absorption of the latter complex was measured at 650 nm.

Extra- and intracellular phosphate concentration was determined by Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit (BioVision). Extracellular phosphate was measured from the culture medium. Cells were treated with 0.1 M NaOH and 0.1% SDS to measure intracellular phosphate. Quantification of phosphate was measured with an OD at 650 nm by spectrophotometry. The results were normalized to the total protein concentration, which was measured in the cultures using a protein assay reagent (Bio-Rad), based on the Bradford dye binding procedure, and albumin was used as a standard. Each condition was performed in triplicate and expressed as nmol phosphate/µg protein.

We determined the activity of osteoblast and osteoclast cells using serum indicators rather than histomorphometry. Serum concentrations of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin, procollagen I C-terminal propeptide (PICP), pyridinoline (PYD), cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTXI) were all measured using commercial kits according to manufacturer's instructions. (ALP: Alkaline phosphatase activity fluorometric assay kit (Biovision, Mountain View, CA, USA); osteocalcin: Mouse osteocalcin EIA kit (Biomedical Technologies, Stoughton, MA, USA); PICP: ELISA kit for mouse PICP (USCN Life Science, Wuhan, Hubei, China); PYD: Mouse pyridinoline ELISA kit (CUSABIO, Wuhan, Hubei, China); NTXI: ELISA kit for mouse NTXI (USCN Life Science, Wuhan, Hubei, China)). Calcium was determined with a calcium colorimetric assay kit (Biovision, Mountain View, CA, USA), and phosphate was measured with a phosphate colorimetric assay kit (Biovision, Mountain View, CA, USA).

Blood was collected from mice by cardiac puncture for analysis of several biochemical parameters. Serum total calcium was determined using Stanbio Laboratory Calcium Liquidcolor (CPC; Boerne, TX, USA; Catalog No. 0150‐250). Serum inorganic phosphate was determined using a Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit (BioVision, Inc., Milpitas, CA, USA; Catalog No. K410‐500). Serum C‐terminal telopeptides of types I and II collagen (CTX‐1 and CTX‐2; Immunodiagnostic Systems Inc., Fountain Hills, AZ, USA; Catalog No. AC‐06F1 and AC‐08F1, respectively), as well as N‐terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP) were determined using the RatLaps EIA kit (Immunodiagnostic Systems Inc., Fountain Hills, AZ, USA; Catalog No. AC‐33F1). Serum intact mouse parathyroid hormone (PTH(1‐84)) was measured using the mouse PTH(1‐84) EIA (Quidel Corp, San Diego, CA, USA; Catalog No. 60‐2305).

NAD Cleavage Assay for rSmNPP5

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Recombinant SmNPP5, expressed in suspension adapted FreeStyle Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells (CHO-S), was purified from culture medium by standard immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) using HisTrap Excel columns, as described previously [12 ]. The ability of rSmNPP5 to cleave NAD was measured by two methods. In the first method, recombinant enzyme (12.5–50ng) was incubated with ε-NAD essentially as described above but at room temperature (RT). The second method employed β-NAD (Roche, 10127965001); after incubating 1 μg SmNPP5 with β-NAD (2 mM) in 500 μl enzyme assay buffer for either 1- or 5-hours at 37°C, calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase (CIP, at 70 u/mL, Promega, M182A) was subsequently added to samples of each reaction mixture for 15 min at RT. Any inorganic phosphate (Pi) released was then measured using a Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit (BioVision, K410), following the manufacturer’s instructions. Absorbance (650 nm) was measured using a Synergy HT microplate reader (Biotek).

Mice were sacrificed by injection with an overdose of Avertin and lavaged with 1 mL of sterilized saline through a 20-gauge angiocatheter inserted into the trachea. BALF from patients with PF or from patients without chronic inflammatory lung diseases were obtained from Beijing Friendship Hospital (Supporting Information Table S1). All the subjects gave appropriate informed consent to participate in this study. The study design was approved by the institutional ethical committee. Briefly, 50 mL of sterilized saline at body temperature was instilled through the bronchoscope. Mucus was removed from the fluid by filtration through two sheets of gauze. The BALF was centrifuged for 10 min at 400 × g at 4 °C. Phosphate concentration was measured with a Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit (BioVision) following the manufacturer's instructions. For intracellular phosphate determination, 1 × 106 AEC2s were washed with cold saline twice and suspended in 1 mL of double-distilled water. The suspension was sonicated for 30 s six times at 10 s intervals. The samples were centrifuged for 15 min at 4 °C at 12,000 × g, and intracellular phosphate in the supernatant was measured.

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.
