An Assay to Monitor Degranulation of Azurophilic Granules in Neutrophils following Activation

研究方案

All procedures involving sample collection have been performed in accordance with the institute's IRB guidelines.

1. Prepare mouse bone marrow neutrophils

1. Harvest bone marrow cells
   1. Bone marrow cells are flushed out from the femur and tibia of C57BL/6 mice with 10 ml Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS) containing 20 mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) and 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), pH 7.4 using a 10 ml syringe with 27 1/2G needle. 
   2. Cells are filtered through 40 μM nylon meshes and centrifuged at 300 g at 4°C for 10 min....
