Escitalopram oxalate was purchased from Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, UK). Artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) was made up of 131 mM NaCl, 2 mM KCl, 1.25 mM KH2PO4, 20 mM NaHCO3, 2 mM MgSO4, 2.5 mM CaCl2, and 10 mM HEPES in purified (18.2 MΩ) H2O and pH was adjusted to 7.4. A 1.0 mM stock solution of serotonin and 5-HIAA was prepared in 0.2 M HClO4, shielded from light, and remade after 3 days. A 10 mM stock solution of each SSRI was prepared in DMSO and stored at 4°C and shielded from light. Fresh solutions of 100 nM serotonin, 1 μm 5-HIAA and 10 μm SSRI were prepared the day of each experiment.

Antidepressant Delivery Routes Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
7–10 days postsurgery (or in age matched non-surgical controls) oral drug treatment delivery began. All oral delivery of antidepressants was via the drinking water. Animals randomized to the fluoxetine group received fluoxetine hydrochloride (Sigma Millipore) at a calculated individual dose of 18 mg/kg for 14 days19 (link). Those in the oral sertraline group received sertraline hydrochloride (Sigma Millipore) at a dose of 6 mg/kg for 14 days, while those in the sertraline injected group received a single i.p. injection at a dose of 20 mg/kg 30 m prior to behavioural testing19 (link). Mice in the bupropion group received bupropion hydrochloride (Sigma Millipore) at a dose of 6 mg/kg for 14 days20 (link).

Sertraline-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sertraline hydrochloride (1S,4S)-4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-N-methyl-1-naphthalenamine hydrochloride, SRT, 342.69 g∙mol−1, 0.98 mass fraction purity) and randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin with Average Degree of Substitution DS ~12.5 (RMβCD) (~1310 g∙mol−1, 0.98 mass fraction purity) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (USA) or CycloLab (Hungary). The substances were used without any additional purifications. The solid substances were dried at 298 K for 72 h under reduced pressure. The water content in the cyclodextrin under investigation was determined as described previously [72 (link)]. Water used in the isothermal titration calorimetry and the circular dichroism spectroscopy measurements was distilled three times and degassed prior to experiments.

3H-serotonin (80 Ci/mmol), 3H-norepinephrine (20 Ci/mmol), and 3H-dopamine (60 Ci/mmol) were purchased from M.G.P. (Zlín, Czech Republic). Forskolin was obtained from Scintila, s.r.o. (Jihlava, CZ). Paroxetine hydrochloride, citalopram hydrobromide, sertraline hydrochloride, fluoxetine hydrochloride, fluvoxamine maleate, venlafaxine hydrochloride, phenelzine sulfate salt, entacapone, GBR 12935 dihydrochloride, nisoxetine hydrochloride, hydrocortisone, and decynium-22 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, USA). Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay Kit was purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, United States). All other chemicals were of analytical grade.

Comparative Evaluation of PL-Inducing Agents

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PL-inducing agents and other compounds tested in the assays, including amikacin, amiodarone hydrochloride, sertraline hydrochloride, and acetaminophen, were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Information about each of these drugs can be found in prior reports [7 (link),35 (link)]. amikacin, amiodarone, and sertraline are weak, moderate and strong PL-inducing drugs, respectively. acetaminophen was used as a negative control drug for the induction of PL. All other compounds and reagents used in the analyses were obtained at an analytical grade from common commercial sources.

Evaluating Antidepressant Effects on Cell Adhesion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For drug exposure experiments, fluoxetine hydrochloride and sertraline hydrochloride (Sigma-Aldrich) were solubilized in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and diluted in cell culture media to the stated concentration/dosage. DMSO was controlled in all experiments such that higher drug concentrations did not necessarily indicate higher DMSO dosages, with all media containing <1% DMSO. For all exposure experiments, media was replenished daily to simulate clinical administration of drugs.
To determine concentrations of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM), and transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFβ), ELISAs were performed. DuoSet kits (R&D Systems) for each target were purchased and used per manufacturer’s protocols. At each time point, cell culture supernatant was collected, spun at 10,000g for 10 min at 4°C, then frozen at −80°C. Samples were thawed at room temperature prior to running each assay. Absorbance was measured via plate reader.

Sertraline Susceptibility Bioscreen Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We performed Bioscreen growth assays to assess the susceptibility of the different strains to sertraline (sertraline hydrochloride; Sigma-Aldrich). Growth assays covered a wide range of concentrations (for each compound/strain, we initially performed an exploratory experiment to define an optimal range including nine concentrations) for each compound of interest using three biological replicates (each one with three replicates for a total of nine replicates) per strain/concentration. Growth was defined as the instances in which two or more replicates increased their OD600 more than twice the maximum OD600 increment of the control wells (inoculated with sterile LB medium) after 16 h of incubation.

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.
