Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All drugs were administered by intraperitoneal injection (I.P.). FG-7142 (Sigma-Aldrich, #E006-100MG) was used as an anxiolytic drug, and administered as described previously (Evans and Lowry, 2007 (link)) at a final concentration of 5 mg/kg body weight 30 min before behavioral testing. The SphK1 antagonist PF-543 (Cayman Chemicals, #17034) was dissolved in 2% DMSO/PBS 0.01M and administered at a final dosage of 10mg/kg. Fingolimod (FTY-720, Sigma-Aldrich, #SML0700-5MG) was used as an S1P receptor agonist, dissolved in saline solution and administered at a final dosage of 0.1 mg/kg, as described (Deogracias et al., 2012 (link)).

LAM patient-derived 621-101 and 621-103 cells [14 (link), 15 (link)], Eker rat uterine leiomyoma-derived (ELT3) cells [16 (link)], TSC2−/−p53−/−, TSC2+/+p53−/− MEFs, and HEK293T cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin. and HEK293T cells. All cultures were incubated at 37 °C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Rapamycin (20 nM; ENZO), PF543 (2 μM; Cayman), TY52156 (2 μM; Cayman), W123 (10 μM; Cayman), Spingosine-1-phosphate (2 μM; Cayman), were used as indicated.

Modulating SphK1 in Huh7 and HMEC-1 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Huh7 HCC cell line was obtained from and authenticated by CellBank Australia, human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) were originally from the American Type Culture Collection, while primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were isolated from umbilical cords authorized by the SLHD-HREC (#2019/ETH06859). Cells were maintained in a 5% CO2 incubator using the previously detailed culture media [31 (link)–33 (link)]. Huh7 and HMEC-1 cells were tested mycoplasma-free. Short hairpin RNAs targeting SphK1 (#a or if not specified, 5ʹ-GCAGCTTCCTTGAACCATTAT-3ʹ; #b, 5ʹ-CGCTGTGCCTTAGTGTCTACT-3ʹ) were constructed in pLKO.1 lentiviral vector (Sigma-Aldrich). The lentivirus was generated in HEK293T cells using plasmids obtained from Dr Didier Trono through Addgene, including pMD2.G, pMDLg/pRRE and pRSV-Rev [34 (link)]. PF-543 and W146 used for cell culture were purchased from Cayman Chemical; MG-132 was from Calbiochem; VEGF-A was from R&D Systems; while D-erythro S1P was from Enzo Life Sciences.

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.
