THP1-XBlue™ Cells
THP1-XBlue™ cells were obtained by stable transfection of THP-1 cells with a reporter construct expressing a secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) gene under the control of a promoter inducible by the transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1.
Upon TLR stimulation, THP1-XBlue™ cells induce the activation of NF-κB and AP-1 and subsequently the secretion of SEAP. The reporter protein is easily detectable and measurable when using QUANTI-Blue™, a medium that turns purple/blue in the presence of SEAP.

Details

TLR and NOD stimulation profile in THP1-XBlue™ and THP1-XBlue™-MD2-CD14.
Cells were incubated with 1 ng/ml Pam3CSK4 (TLR1/2), 10 ng/ml FSL-1 (TLR2/6), 107 cells/ml HKLM (TLR2), 10 μg/ml poly(I:C) (TLR3), 10 ng/ml LPS-EK (TLR4), 10 ng/ml RecFLA-ST (TLR5), 5 μg/ml imiquimod (TLR7), 5 μg/ml CL075 (TLR8), 10 μg/ml ODN2006 (TLR9), 100 ng/ml C12-iEDAP (NOD1) or 10 μg/ml MDP (NOD2). After 24h incubation, TLR/NOD stimulation was assessed by measuring the levels of SEAP in the supernatant by using QUANTI-Blue™.
