20190522-23: ELISA NF155 IgG subclases and NF140 in CMT and CIDP patients

Objective:

  1. To test subclases IgG in a NF155 positive CMT patient (101).
  2. To test NF140 IgG and NF155 IgG in a patient that has a mild positivity towards NF155 and NF40 in ICC (19-061)
  3. To confirm positivity in 19-172 (positive by ICC).

MATERIALS:

  • ELISA plates NUNC ref: 442404 Thermoscientific
  • Coating buffer:  sodium carbonate (pH 9.6)
  • Recombinant Human NF155 protein 
  • RAH-HRP IgG secondary antibody, Dako P0214
  • MAH-HRP IgG4 secondary antibody REF: A-10654      
  • TMB solution (BioLegend)
  • Non-fat dry milk
  • H2SO4
  • PBS-Tween 0.1%

PROCEDURE:

  • Coat ELISA plate with NF155 protein or NF140 protein (1ug/ml) in carbonate/bicarbonate buffer (pH 9.6) and incubate O/N at 4ºC rocking.
  • The day after, wash plate 3xPBS-Tween 0.1% and block with milk 5% in PBS-Tween for 1 hour, 200uL per well).
  • Add patients sera diluted 1/100 (200uL/well)  and incubate 1h at RT.
  • Wash 3xPBS-Tween 0.1%
  • Add secondary antibody RAH IgG 1/5000 for confirmation and MAH IgG4 for titration 1/2000 in milk 5% and incubate 1h at RT.
  • Wash 3xPBS-Tween
  • Add TMB solution 10′
  • Stop reaction with H2SO4
  • Lecture at 450-620 nm.

RESULTS: The figure of the ELISA is here.

The ELISA is not valid. We think there was a problem with the blocking solution; we are going to repeat it with milk 10% in PBS-Tween 0.1%.
