Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg(1EU/µg).
Presentation
Recombinant mouse TNF alpha was lyophilized from.2 μm filtered PBS solution, pH7.0.
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 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 at2° -8° 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.
Usage
This cytokine product is for research purposes only.It may not be used for therapeutics or diagnostic purposes.

Methods
Caspase 8 gene ablation provides neuroprotection in vitro in primary neuronal cultures and brain organotypic cultures.
- 3-day-old PNC derived from embryos (E16.5) of CRE3 and Ncasp8
Transendothelial migration of mMSCs in response to chemokines.
- MAECs were treated with or without TNFα and in the presence or absence of CXCL16, CXCL9, CCL20 and CCL25 (each at 10 ng/ml).
Materials
- Tetramethylammonium hydroxide was from Shanghai Lingfeng Chemical Reagent Co Ltd, Shanghai, China.
- Other materials were RPMI 1640 medium, penicillin, and streptomycin , fetal bovine serum (, , , the ), recombinant murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, recombinant murine interleukin-4, CD11c, B7-1 (CD80), B7-2(CD86), MHC II, and chemokine receptor 7 (eBioscience, San Diego, CA), tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, and interleukin-6 , prostaglandin E2 , a Prussian blue staining kit .
- Annexin V and propidium iodide , and the Cell Counting Kit-8 .
Anti-inflammatory effects of diazoxide pre-treatment in microglial cell cultures stimulated with LPS and IFNγ.
- Nitrite accumulation , and TNF-α and IL-6 release in control (unstimulated cells), DZX (unstimulated cells pretreated with 100 μM diazoxide), diazoxide and LPS/IFNγ + Diazoxide (10 μM to 100 μM) normalized for LPS/IFNγ untreated cells.
Flow cytometric analysis of endothelial VCAM-1 and E-selectin
- Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured in EGM-2 according to the manufacturer’s protocol.
- HUVEC (passage 3–5) were plated in 24-well plates with 1×105 cells/400 µl per well in EGM-2 plus 20% FBS.
- After a 5 hour re-attachment period, cells were pre-incubated for 16 hours with HDL isolated from pooled serum samples (n=6), after which TNF-α (0.5 ng/ml) was added to the culture medium for an additional 4 hours.
- Cell-surface expression of VCAM-1 and E-selectin were then measured by flow cytometry, using a VCAM-1 monoclonal antibody followed by an anti-mouse FITC conjugated antibody , or an E-selectin PE conjugated antibody .
- Cells were detached using 5 mM EDTA in PBS.
- Cellular FITC and PE were then analyzed by flow cytometry (C6 Flow Cytometer, Accuri Cytometers ).
- Controls included an isotype-matched control antibody and no primary antibody.
- Native HDL3 (isolated by sequential ultracentrifugation of human plasma) at concentration of 0.5 mg/ml…
Epithelial cytokine expression and MSC migration.
- B/ Supernatants from non-infected (white bars), 7.13- (light grey bars) or 26695- (dark grey bars) infected cells were assessed for TNFα and CCL2 expression by ELISA.
Enhanced circulating and intrathymic contents of TNF-α parallel the thymic atrophy in T. cruzi acutely-infected mice.
- A) Representative picture showing two thymuses from healthy control mice (Co) and the progressive thymic atrophy after 14, 17 and 21 days of acute infection; B) TNF-α protein detection in thymus homogenates by western blot.
Less proinflammatory cytokine induction was evident in IL-1 KO mice after SCI.
- TNFα level in the spinal cord of the wild-type (open squares and solid line) and IL-1 KO mice (closed square and dotted line).
PRP decreased the apoptotic cell death and caspase 3 activity induced by TNF-α and cycloheximide in ccdPAs.
- The cells were treated with TNF-α and cycloheximide for 5, 30, 60, and 120 min in the medium with 2% FBS (closed bar) or 2% PRP (open bar).
Transendothelial Migration and Invadopodia (in Vitro Filipodia) Formation Assay of the T Lymphoma Cells
- Trans-endothelial migration of T-cells was measured as described 6 cells) were seeded on the upper compartment on top of the endothelial monolayer in 100 µl.
- After 16 hours of treatment, the tissue culture wells were removed and the lower compartment cells were collected to determine the number of transmigrated lymphocytes.
- To assess the formation of leading edge filipodia, the T lymphoma cells were labelled with cell tracker green and added to confluent monolayers of tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) (cat 300-01A, , , ) activated bEnd.3 cells grown on glass cover slips that had been coated with 2 µg/ml fibronectin.
- After, 16 hours of incubation, non adherent cells to the cover slips were removed by gentle washing the adherent cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and stained with DAPI and TRITC-phalloidin.
- Z stack images were captured using Axiovision 4.1 Zeiss microscope and analyzed.
