Four subsets of mononuclear cells from healthy subjects were separated using MACS magnetic beads. Purified cells from each subset were counted and resuspend in NaCl medium at 2×107/mL with 1mM Ca2+ at 37°C. After 60 min supernatants were collected and MMP-9, TIMP-1 concentrations were determined as “Basal” (ng/mL) using ELISA. Proportion of MMP-9 contribution from each single subset (protein concentration multiplies by volume of cell suspension) versus total amount of released MMP-9 from all four subsets was calculated and presented as “%.”

Human mononuclear cells (2x107/mL) were incubated with PMA for 15 min at 37°C in NaCl medium containing 1 mM CaCl2. Supernatant and cell pellet were collected by centrifugation. Cell pellets were lysed in original volume. MMP-9 activity in supernatants (a) and cell pellet lysates (b) was detected by gelatin zymography. MMP-9 (c) and TIMP-1 (d) concentration in both supernatants and cell pellet lysates were determined by ELISA. One representative experiment of two.

-

Mononuclear cells (2×107/mL) were incubated with OxATP (300 µM) at 37°C in NaCl medium containing 1 mM CaCl2 for 60 min, followed by addition of various concentration of ATP or BzATP as indicated. Supernatants were collected after 30 min. MMP-9 and TIMP-1 concentrations (ng/mL) were measured by ELISA. Curves are representative data from two healthy subjects with wild type P2X7 function who have been studied in Figure 3.
