Whole blood can be used as an alternative to isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells to measure in vitro specific T-cell responses in human samples
2021, Journal of Immunological MethodsComparison of RAW264.7, human whole blood and PBMC assays to screen for immunomodulators
2018, Journal of Immunological MethodsCitation Excerpt :Whole blood was chosen instead of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), which are often used to evaluate potential anti-inflammatory compounds (Dranoff, 2004; Kaczanowska et al., 2013; Berghaus et al., 2010), because it has been shown to more closely mimic in vivo conditions (Coch et al., 2013). As well, whole blood preserves the in vivo blood cellular composition and the extracellular factors in plasma that may modulate inflammatory responses (Yaqoob et al., 1999; Damsgaard et al., 2009). We also chose to challenge these cells with intact bacteria (i.e., E. coli) rather than purified LPS, which only stimulates TLR4-mediated inflammatory responses, in an effort to mimic a more physiological inflammatory response.
Pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside and its metabolites have modest anti-inflammatory effects in human whole blood cultures
2017, Nutrition ResearchCitation Excerpt :However, there are very little data on the effects of these physiologically relevant compounds. Furthermore, most in vitro work has been conducted using cell lines, but whole blood cultures more closely represent physiological conditions [35,36]. This study therefore characterized the effect of the parent anthocyanin Pg-3-glc and 3 physiologically relevant plasma metabolites on phagocytosis, oxidative burst, and the production of selected pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α], IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10) in a whole blood culture model to test our hypothesis that modulations would be observed.
