Cell Stress Model and Pharmacological Intervention

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PC-12 cell line was purchased from the National Collection of Authenticated Cell Cultures (China, Shanghai) and the HAPI cell line from BeNa Culture Collection (Beijing, China). PC-12 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (Gibco, USA) and the HAPI cells in the DMEM/F-12 medium (Gibco). All culture systems were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Gibco) under a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C.
The cell treatment of the experiments is depicted in Figs. 6 and 7 and was as follows: for the LPS/corticosterone + Rg1 group, the cells were pre-treated with LPS (1 μg/mL, to establish an inflammatory stress model) or corticosterone (400 μM, to establish an oxidative stress model) for 2 h, followed by co-incubation with Rg1 (5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM) for 24 h. For the LPS/corticosterone + shRNA group, the cells were transfected with lentivirus for 48 h and then washed with cold PBS buffer, followed by incubation with LPS or corticosterone for 24 h. corticosterone (HY-B1618) was purchased from MedChemExpress and LPS (L5293) from Sigma-Aldrich.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
