biomakers for ovarian torsion

Blood biomarkers analysis using multiplex ELISA: The Luminex system is a magnetic bead-based multiplex ELISA that enable to measure simultaneously multiple proteins within the same sample. Human magnetic Luminex assay will be used for the following analytes: D-Dimer (21.7-5,280 ng/ml), FABP4/A-FABP (0.637-155 ng/ml), GM-CSF (0.012-2.98 ng/ml), ICAM-1/CD54 (6.9-1674 ng/ml), IFN-γ (0.058-14.2 ng/ml), IL-1α (0.005-1.27 ng/ml), IL-6 (0.005-1.2 ng/ml), IL-10 (0.005-1.2 ng/ml), IL-17/IL-17A (0.012-3.1 ng/ml), Park7/DJ-1 (0.26- 63.1 ng/ml), TNF-α (0.01-2.4 ng/ml), TSLP (0.003-0.7 ng/ml), VCAM-1/CD106 (7.8-1891 ng/ml) and VEGF (0.008-2.4 ng/ml). Plasma samples stored at -70°C will be sent to accredited lab at BioTest (Israel) for performing the multiplex ELISA readout assay test using MagPix system.

peritoneal fluid proteins analysis

Western blot for peritoneal fluid proteins analysis We will look for the relative abundance of proteins involved in the protection of cells against oxidative stress and the regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using western blot. Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1, 16kDa) scavenges superoxides (O-2) within cells. Catalase (60kDa) is hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging enzyme regulate ROS concentrations within cells by reducing H202 into O2 and water. Thioredoxin (12kDa) facilitates the reduction of proteins via cysteine thiol-disulfide exchange. Alpha smooth muscle actin (42kDa) will be used as a loading control. These four proteins will be resolved by western blot given their different molecular weights using western blot cocktail antibodies (abcam # ab179843).
