Levels of soluble biomarkers were measured in CSF and plasma via a combination of Luminex-based custom assays and ELISAs, as per manufacturers’ protocol and as described previously [31 (link)]. IP-10/CXCL10 and IL-10 were measured using the Luminex based Milliplex Map Human Cytokine / Chemokine Panel (Millipore Sigma, St. Louis MO). Soluble CD163 was measured via the Bio-Plex Pro Human Inflammation Panel 1 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules CA). Neopterin was measured by chemiluminescent detection ELISA (Genway Biotech, San Diego CA). Data was collected on a FlexMap 3D reader (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules CA) or VersaMax plate reader (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale CA) and analyzed in Prism v.9 for Mac OS X (GraphPad, La Jolla CA) using 4-parameter fit standard curves.
