Evaluating Cell Viability with CCK8 Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell viability was determined using the CCK8 assay. First, the three groups of cells were seeded on 96-well plates at 40,000 cells/well. Following attachment, cells were incubated with different concentrations of lapatinib (S2111, Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA) and/or perifosine (1.5–100 μM APExBIO, Houston, TX, USA) and cultured for 48 h. CCK8 agent (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Inc., Japan) was added, and after 2 h, the absorbance at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA).

Inhibition of Akt and mTOR in N2a Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Perifosine (A8309, APExBIO, USA, 10 μM, dissolved in PBS) and rapamycin (A8167, APExBIO, USA, 50 nM, dissolved in PBS) were used to inhibit Akt and mTOR, respectively. In the corresponding treatment group, each drug was added to the growth medium of N2a cells at the onset of reoxygenation.

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.
