Retinal Fatty Acid Uptake in Wild-Type and Vldlr Knockout Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We compared retinal long-chain fatty acid uptake of wild type and Vldlr−/− mice gavaged with 0.1 mg of 4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene-3-hexadecanoic acid (BODIPY FL C16; Molecular Probes). Mice were euthanized 2 h later and the eyes were enucleated, embedded in OCT and cryo-sectioned (10 µm) for immediate imaging by fluorescence microscopy. Retinal FA uptake was quantitated using 14C-labeled 2-bromopalmitate tracer injected twice daily (i.p.; 0.5 uCi per dose) from P9 to P12; total administered radioactivity was normalized for mouse body weight. Retinas were then dissected and homogenized in Ultima Gold liquid scintillation cocktail (PerkinElmer) and beta-counted (14C DPM) using Tri-Carb 2900TR instrument (PerkinElmer), correcting for background scintillation.

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.
