Colonic tissue was opened along the mesenteric border and mounted in Ussing chambers (Physiologic Instruments, San Diego, CA) with an 0.5 cm2 exposing area of the tissue surface to 5 mL of V O2/V CO2 95:5 Krebs-glucose (10 mM) at 37°C. After adapted for 20 minutes, tetrodotoxin (TTX, 0.1 μM, Shanghai Aladdin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China) and indomethacin (Indo, 1μM, Sigma-Aldrich Corp., St. Louis, MO, USA) were added to the basal side, respectively, to inhibit enteric neurons and prostaglandin synthase and sections let they reached a steady-state level for at least 30 minutes before each experiment began.
The paracellular pathway and transcellular pathway were measured as the flux of 4-kDa FITC-dextran (FD-4; 0.5 mg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich Corp., St. Louis, MO, USA) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP; 0.5 mg/mL; Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Beijing, China), respectively. FD-4 and HRP were added to the luminal side, and the samples of 400 μL were collected from the basolateral per 20 min for 2 h and replaced by an equal volume of the corresponding buffer. The concentration of FD-4 was measured using fluorescence at emission 528 nm and excitation 485 nm. 3.3′,5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was used to detect HRP at absorbance 405 nm.18 (link)

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.
