Although immune responses are involved in the development and exacerbation of acute liver injury, the cellular and molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Intravenous administration of the plant lectin concanavalin A (ConA) is widely used as a model of acute liver injury. ConA triggers T cell activation and cytokine production by crosslinking glycoproteins, including the T cell receptor, leading to the infiltration of myeloid cells into the liver and the subsequent amplification of inflammation in the liver. Thus, the pathogenesis of ConA-induced acute liver injury is considered a model of immune-mediated acute liver injury or autoimmune hepatitis in humans. However, the severity of the liver injury and the analyses of immune cells and non-hematopoietic cells in the liver following ConA injection are significantly influenced by the experimental conditions.

Genetic code expansion enables site-specific photo-cross-linking by introducing photo-reactive non-canonical amino acids into proteins at defined positions during translation. This technology is widely used for analyzing protein-protein interactions and is applicable in mammalian cells. However, the identification of the cross-linked region still remains challenging. Our new protocol enables its identification by pre-installing a site-specific cleavage site, an α-hydroxy acid (<i>N</i>^ε-allyloxycarbonyl-α-hydroxyl-<span>L</span>-lysine acid, AllocLys-OH), into the target protein. Alkaline treatment cleaves the crosslinked complex at the position of the α-hydroxy acid residue and thus helps to identify which side of the cleavage site, either closer to the N-terminus or C-terminus, the crosslinked site is located on within the target protein. A series of AllocLys-OH introductions narrows down the crosslinked region. This combination of site-specific crosslinking and cleavage promises to be useful for revealing binding interfaces and protein complex geometries. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 1</b>: Search for crosslinkable sites</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 2</b>: Site-specific photo-cross-linking/cleavage</p>","PeriodicalId":93970,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols","volume":"4 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141895070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Full-thickness skin grafts from mice with spontaneous alopecia areata to young, normal-haired, histocompatible mice provide a highly reproducible model with progressive lesions that makes it useful for drug efficacy and mechanism-based studies.

Poor sleep negatively influences PC and balance, which is necessary for performing various tasks, from reaching to mobility. Moreover, sleep disturbances and consequent PC and balance deterioration are associated with job accidents, traffic accidents, falls, and injuries. Healthy adults who have inadequate sleep show a decline in optimal functioning, even in the absence of medical illnesses. This suggests that getting enough sleep, both in duration and quality, is essential to maintain optimal health. Moreover, inadequate sleep has also been observed to have a bidirectional relationship with stress levels. However, there is insufficient evidence regarding the impact of non-pharmacological treatments to improve PC, sleep, and stress in the sedentary young adult (YA) population. This article describes the protocol for a study to investigate the effects of sensorimotor training and relaxation therapy on various static and dynamic PC tests, balance measures, and subjective and objective indices of sleep and stress among sedentary YAs with impaired sleep quality. The protocol is also designed to evaluate the effect of these therapies on fatigue, salivary cortisol levels, anxiety, and depression. Methods for assessing the sleep architecture, static and dynamic PC, balance, and stress are described along with the methods of scoring with the primary goal of providing a standardized set of assessment and scoring procedures according to the latest guidelines and gold-standard techniques and measures that can be used reliably at different laboratories. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 1</b>: Postural control assessment</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 2</b>: Balance assessment</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 3</b>: Sleep architecture assessment</p><p><b>Basic Protocol 4</b>: Salivary cortisol analysis</p>","PeriodicalId":93970,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols","volume":"4 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141891288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In such global catastrophes, teragrams of particulate matter, such as aerosols of soot, dust, and sulfates, would be injected into the stratosphere and block sunlight for multiple years. The reduction of incident sunlight would cause a decrease in temperature and precipitation and major shifts to climate patterns leading to devastating reductions in agricultural production of traditional food crops. To survive a catastrophic ASRS or endure current and future disasters and famines, humans might need to rely on post-catastrophic foods, or those that could be foraged, grown, or produced under the new climate conditions to supplement reduced availability of traditional foods. These foods have sometimes been referred to as emergency, alternate, or resilient foods in the literature. While there is a growing body of work that summarizes potential post-catastrophic foods and their nutritional profiles based on existing data in the literature, this article documents a list of protocols to experimentally determine fundamental nutritional properties of post-catastrophic foods that can be used to assess the relative contributions of those foods to a balanced human diet that meets established nutritional requirements while avoiding toxic levels of nutrients. © 2024 The Author(s).

Innate immune activation utilizes pattern recognition receptors to detect pathogens, pathogen-associated and damage-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs and DAMPs), and homeostatic alterations and drives inflammatory signaling pathways and regulated cell death. Cell death activation is critical to eliminate pathogens and aberrant or damaged cells, while excess activation can be linked to inflammation, tissue damage, and disease. Therefore, there is increasing interest in studying cell death mechanisms to understand the underlying biology and identify therapeutic strategies. However, there are significant technical challenges, as many cell death pathways share key molecules with each other, and genetic models where these cell death molecules are deleted remain the gold standard for evaluation. Furthermore, extensive crosstalk has been identified between the cell death pathways pyroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis, and the more recently characterized PANoptosis, which is defined as a prominent, unique innate immune, lytic, and inflammatory cell death pathway initiated by innate immune sensors and driven by caspases and RIPKs through PANoptosomes. PANoptosomes are multi-protein complexes assembled by innate immune sensor(s) in response to pathogens, PAMPs, DAMPs, cytokines, and homeostatic changes that drive PANoptosis. In this article, we provide methods for molecularly defining distinct cell death pathways, including PANoptosis, using both genetic and chemical approaches through western blot, LDH assay, and microscopy readouts. This procedure allows for the assessment of cell death on the cell population and single-cell levels even without access to genetic models. Having this comprehensive workflow that is more accessible to all labs will improve our ability as a scientific community to accelerate discovery. Using these protocols will help identify new innate immune sensors that drive PANoptosis and define the molecular mechanisms and regulators involved to establish new targets for clinical translation. © 2024 The Author(s).

Obtaining PAH-degrading SRB cultures for laboratories is of paramount importance in the development of the young field of anaerobic biodegradation of PAHs. SRB grow exceptionally slowly on PAH substrates and are highly sensitive to oxygen. Consequently, enrichment and maintenance of PAH-degrading SRB cultures and characterization of the biodegradation process remain a tedious and formidable task, especially for new researchers. To address these technical constraints, we have developed robust and effective protocols for obtaining and characterizing PAH-degrading SRB cultures. In this set of protocols, we describe step-by-step procedures for preparing inocula from contaminated soil or sediment, preparing anoxic medium, establishing enrichment cultures with PAHs as substrates under completely anaerobic sulfate-reducing conditions, successive culture transfers to obtain highly enriched cultures, rapid verification of the viability of SRB in slow-growing cultures, assessment of PAH degradation by extracting residuals using organic solvent and subsequent analysis by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, and spectrophotometric determination of sulfate and sulfide in miniaturized, medium-throughput format.
