WB4101 (selective α1-adrenoceptor antagonist; Tocris, Westwoods Business Park, Ellisville, MO, USA; cat. # 0946), RX821002 (selective α2-adrenoceptor antagonist; Tocris, cat. # 1324), propranolol (β-adrenoceptor antagonist; Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, Missouri, USA; cat. # P0884), tribromoethanol (Sigma–Aldrich, cat. # T48402), and urethane (Sigma–Aldrich; cat. # U2500) were dissolved in saline (NaCl 0.9%). Flunixin meglumine (Banamine, Schering Plough, Cotia, São Paulo, Brazil) and the polyantibiotic preparation of streptomycins and penicillins (Pentabiotico, Fort Dodge, Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil) were used as provided.

Detailed ACSF compositions for in vitro experiments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two kinds of ACSF were used in in vitro experiments: mACSF in the dissection dish before recording and nACSF in the recording chamber. mACSF was composed of (in mM) 118 NaCl, 24 NaHCO3, 1.5 CaCl2, 3 KCl, 5 MgCl2, 1.4 NaH2PO4, 1.3 MgSO4, 25 d-glucose, and 1 kynurenic acid. nACSF was composed of (in mM) 122 NaCl, 25 NaHCO3, 2.5 CaCl2, 3 KCl, 1 MgCl2, 0.5 NaH2PO4, and 12 d-glucose. Both types of ACSF were saturated with carbogen (95% O2-5% CO2) and maintained at pH 7.4. The drugs added to the nACSF were 5-HTP, clorgyline, pargyline, tryptamine, L-tryptophan, tyramine, L-tyrosine, 2-phenylethylamine, L-phenyalanine, NSD1015 (Sigma-Aldrich), α-methyl-5-HT, octopamine, SB206553, RX821002, GR127935, dobutamine, vasopressin (Tocris) and zolmitriptan (AstraZenica). All drugs were first dissolved as a 10 – 50 mM stock solution in water before final dilution in ACSF for in vitro ventral root reflexes recording and DIC microscopy or in saline for in vivo oxygen measurements and two photon microscopy, with the exception of zolmitriptan, which was dissolved in minimal amounts of DMSO (DMSO final concentration in nACSF was 0.04%). DMSO alone had no effect on in vitro LLR in vehicle controls, as compare to nACSF control state.

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.
