Propofol Effects on Fly Behavior

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A 100 millimolar (mM) stock solution of propofol was prepared by dissolving 9 microliters (μL) of propofol (2,6-Diisopropylphenol, >97%, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis MO) in 491 uL of polyethylene glycol (PEG400). Activity tubes containing various concentrations of propofol were prepared by diluting an appropriate volume of 100 mM propofol stock solution in regular fly food (5% sucrose, 2% agar).
Propofol was administered by individually transferring flies to activity tubes with sucrose food containing various doses of propofol or equivalent amounts of vehicle. Activity data was collected for three baseline days during photoentrainment prior to administering propofol treatment on the fourth day for 6h from ZT 0 to ZT 6 (ZT = zeitgeber time, where ZT 0–12 = lights on, and ZT 12–24 = lights off), or as otherwise indicated. Post-propofol treatment, flies were transferred back to freshly prepared activity tubes containing regular sucrose medium, and behavioral data was collected for an additional 3–7 days after drug exposure.

Anesthesia Administration and Euthanasia in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mice were housed at room temperature on a 12‐h light–dark cycle for at least 1 week prior to experimentation, and food and water were given ad libitum. Anesthesia was induced and maintained based on previous studies and titration experiments 19, 20. Specifically, anesthesia was induced with 5% Sevo and maintained with 3% Sevo for 3 h. For anesthesia using Prop, a working stock of 25 mg·mL−1 2,6‐diisopropylphenol (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) diluted in intralipid (20% emulsion available at Sigma‐Aldrich) was prepared. Mice were intraperitoneally administered 600 mg·kg−1 Prop. Animals under anesthesia were kept on a heating element at 37 °C. The effect of anesthesia was confirmed by examining the pedal reflex every 5 min. Mice were kept under anesthesia using each type of anesthetic for ~ 3 h. For the analysis, mice were euthanized by CO2 inhalation.

In Vitro Anesthesia Exposure Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Coverslips in 12-well plates were placed in identical air-tight, humidified chambers (Billups-Rothenberg, Del Mar, CA, USA) as previously described [43 (link)]. Isoflurane (Baxter Healthcare Cooperation, Deerfield, IL, USA) or sevoflurane (AbbVie Inc., North Chicago, IL, USA) were delivered using an agent-specific, calibrated inline vaporizer (SuperaVet, Vaporizer Sales and Services Inc., Rockmart, GA, USA), and were diluted in 5% CO2/95% O2 carrier gas. Controls for these experiments received 5% CO2/95% O2 carrier gas only. There was a 15-min equilibration period, which was required to achieve the correct concentration of Isoflurane or sevoflurane as measured by a 5250 RGM gas analyzer (Datex-Ohmeda, Madison, WI, USA). Then the sealed chambers were placed in an incubator to maintain temperature at 37 °C for the duration of anesthesia exposure. Isoflurane/sevoflurane concentration was periodically measured at the end of the experimental period to verify that it was appropriately maintained throughout the exposure.
The propofol exposure was done by adding pure 2,6-diisopropylphenol (Sigma Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA) (1 nM, 2 nM, 4 nM) into experiment wells, and incubated at 37 °C for the duration of anesthesia exposure. The exposure was terminated by removing all the media and by adding a combination of previously-removed media without propofol and fresh media.

The raw materials needed for the synthesis of propofolfatty acid ester conjugates of selected four fatty acids, such as alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) , was extracted from eripupal oil according to a reported procedure 41) , valproic acid (VA) was purchased from Alfa-Aesar Chemicals (USA) . Butyric acid (BA) , 2-ethylhexanoic acid (2-EHA) , 2,4-diisopropylphenol, 2,6-diisopropylphenol and N,N -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) , 4-(dimethyl amino) pyridine (DMAP) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Chemicals (USA) . All solvents and chemicals were of reagent grade and used directly without further purification. Silica gel (60-120 mesh) for column chromatography was purchased from Acme Synthetic Chemicals, Mumbai, India. Precoated TLC plates were purchased from Merck, Darmstadt, Germany. Human tumor cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA, USA.

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.
