Assessment of the Activation of Multiple Caspases in Macrophages
Published: January 31, 2024
Abstract
Source: Han, J. et al., Evaluation of Caspase Activation to Assess Innate Immune Cell Death. J. Vis. Exp. (2023)
This video demonstrates the assessment of multiple caspase activations in bone marrow-derived macrophages through stimulation with the influenza virus. Following macrophage lysis, heat-inactivation of lysate, and centrifugation, intracellular caspases are collected for subsequent immunological analysis.
Protocol
1. Preparing the solutions Prepare L929-conditioned media. Plate 1 × 106 L929 cells (see Table of Materials) in an 182 cm2 tissue culture flask containing 50 mL of L929 culture media (see Table 1 for the preparation of the media). Grow the cells in a humidified incubator at 37 °C with 5% carbon dioxide, CO2. After 7 days, collect the supernatant, and filter u…
