Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than.1 ng/µg(1EU/µg).
Presentation
Recombinant IL-8 was lyophilized from a.2 μm filtered PBS solution pH7.5 .
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers
Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least years from date of receipt at -20° C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at° -° C for one month, or at -20° C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Methods

Downstream target genes of GLO1 and their clinical correlations.

  • HIF-1α, NF-kB, VEGF, CXCL8, CXCL1, and CXCR2 protein levels in TSGH cells transfected with GLO1 shRNA (KG1 and KG2) and control shRNA (C1 and C2).

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)

  • An ELISA kit was used according to the manufacturer's protocol to detect IFN-β (PBL Biomedical Laboratories, Piscataway, NJ).
  • ELISAs using commercial matched antibody pairs were obtained to further detect human IFN-α2b , CCL4 , CXCL8 and CXCL10 (B ).
  • CCL5 was detected by sandwich ELISA using a rabbit anti-human CCL5 antibody fromwith a goat anti-human secondary antibody from& .
  • ELISA plates were developed using theELISA amplification system according to manufacturer's instructions, and were acquired on a microplate reader and analysed using SoftMaxPro software .

Gα12-dependent regulation of IL-6 and IL-8 in OSCC.

  • The secreted proteins of IL-6 and IL-8 are up-regulated by Gα12 in OSCC cells.

Chemotaxis assay

  • A migration assay was performed in 48- or 96-well Corning Costar transwell chambers with porous polycarbonate membranes with a pore size of 5 um .
  • hMSC at passage 4 were resuspended at 1 × 106/mL in the migration medium supplemented with 1% BSA and insulin transferrin selenium (ITS) and seeded in the upper chamber.
  • The following human recombinant proteins were used as chemoattractants in the lower compartment: hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), platelet-derived growth factor-AB (PDGF-AB), epidermal growth factor (EGF), VEGF-121, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), macrophage inflammatory protein-3β (MIP-3β), macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), B cell attracting chemokine-1 (BCA-1), regulation upon activation normal T cell express sequence (RANTES), growth regulated proteinα (GROα), fractalkine, SDF-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α .
  • The concentration of each cytokine was optimized to ensure maximal cell migration through the porous membrane.
  • The concentrations were: 40 ng/mL HGF, 10 ng/mL PDGF-AB, 10 ng/mL EGF, 10 ng/mL VEGF-121,…

Isolated microparticles can be quantified and the real-time generation of neutrophil microparticles can be assessed with ISX.

  • (a) Neutrophils were labeled with BODIPY-Maleimide, then microparticles were generated using TNF-α (50 ng/ml), IL-8 (50 ng/ml) or leukotriene B4 (10 nM) and enumerated using ISX.

Analysis of the functional activities of protein antigens expressed in the lumen of OMVs – (a) Haemolytic activity of Slo-OMVs.

  • 10 µg of SpyCEP-OMVs and “empty” OMVs were permeabilized with Triton X-100 and subsequently incubated with IL-8.

Cell Culture and Treatments

  • In experiments investigating CXC-chemokine signaling, cells were incubated in serum-free, phenol-red free RMPI 1640 or medium'>DMEM medium for 16h prior to exposure to 3nM recombinant human (rh)-CXCL8, 100ng/ml rh-CXCL12 or 100ng/ml rh-CCL2 .
  • For inhibition of chemokine signaling, cells were treated with RS102895 (CCR2 antagonist, 10nM, , ), AMD3100 (CXCR4 antagonist, 25μg/ml) or a CXCR1/2-derived pepducin (x1/2pal-i3, 300nM, , ).
  • Control cells were treated with the appropriate vehicle or NT-pepducin (x1/2pal-con) sequence as required.

Migration patterns of human neutrophils in response to fMLP, LTB4, C5a and IL-8 A) Percentage of human neutrophils loaded in the cell-loading channel, which migrate towards or away from fMLP, LTB4, C5a and IL-8 at different concentrations.

  • Human neutrophils migrate towards and away from C5a and IL-8 in similar proportions.

HlgAB and HlgCB induce pro-inflammatory responses, and single components HlgA and HlgC are immunomodulatory molecules (a, b) Oxidative burst of human neutrophils induced by 1 µM fMLP after priming with 10 ng mL−1 TNFα, 1 nM C5a, 10 nM IL-8, and (a) 0.50 to 4.00 nM HlgCB or (b) 0.03 to 0.25 nM HlgAB.
