Tissue Temperature Monitoring in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For tissue temperature recording, type T thermocouple probes and/or fiber optic temperature probe were implanted into the adipose tissue of mice under anesthesia (Urethane at 1.3 g kg−1). Device implantation was performed according to the procedures described in previous studies10 (link),40 (link). Tissue temperature was recorded by TC-2000 Meter (Sable Systems International) or Reflex fiber signal conditioner (Neoptix). The Neoptix T1 fiber optic temperature probe has a response time of less than 500 ms and the size of the sensitive area is 300 microns in diameter. Temperature recording was initiated once tissue temperature was stabilized prior to light-pulses.

Mice under anesthesia with urethane (1.3 mg/kg) were positioned in a stereotaxic apparatus according to the mouse brain atlas (Franklin and Paxinos, 2008 ). A stainless steel cannula (outer diameter, 0.35 mm) and a 1 ml disposable syringe were connected with polyethylene tubing and were inserted perpendicularly into the right lateral ventricle (coordinates: 0.1 mm posterior to bregma, 0.1 mm lateral to the midline, and 1 mm ventral to the brain surface). Then, mice were left on a self-regulating heating pad to stabilize the rectal temperature (TRec) at 37°C and implanted with a type T thermocouple probe (IT-18, Physitemp, Clifton, NJ) in the rectum and with needle microprobes (MT-29/1, Physitemp) in the interscapular BAT and inguinal WAT (Yoneshiro et al., 2019 (link)). Tissue temperatures were simultaneously recorded by TC-2000 Meter (Sable Systems International). When tissue temperatures were stable, for >5 min, PGE2 (1.4 μg; Sigma) in 1.4 μl of pyrogen-free saline or only saline was injected into the ventricle through the cannula. The changes in tissue temperatures were contentiously measured every second for 1 hr or as indicated, and the mean value per minute was calculated.

Measuring Tissue Temperature in Mice

Tissue temperature in the interscapular BAT and the skeletal muscle was recorded using the type T thermocouple probes and recorded by using the TC-2000 Meter (Sable Systems International), according to our protocol3 (link). Core body temperature was monitored using a TH-5 thermometer (Physitemp) by recording the rectal temperature of the mice. For core-body temperature recording experiment in Fig. 5i, both control (Ppargflox/flox) and PpargMyoD KO (Myod-CreERT2;Ppargflox/flox) mice were pre-treated with β-blocker and tamoxifen at room temperature for 5 days and acclimated to 15°C for additional 5 days. Wild-type mice did not receive pre-β-blocker-treatment. Subsequently, all the mice were acutely treated with β-blocker and exposed to 10°C.

For core-body temperature recording experiments, rectal temperature of BckdhaUCP1 KO and Slc25a44 KD mice was monitored using a TH-5 thermometer (Physitemp) up to 14 hours after cold exposure. For tissue temperature recording, mice under anesthesia were implanted with type T thermocouple probes in the interscapular BAT, inguinal WAT, liver, and skeletal muscle, according to the method that was described previously 33 . Tissue temperature was recorded by TC-2000 Meter (Sable Systems International). When tissue temperature was stable, mice were intraperitoneally administered norepinephrine at a dose of 1 mg per kg body weight to induce non-shivering thermogenesis.

The rectal temperature of mice was monitored by a TH-5 thermometer (Physitemp). For the recording of the tissue, mice under anesthesia were implanted with type T thermocouple probes in the interscapular BAT, inguinal WAT, and skeletal muscle, according to the previous study 12 . The temperature of each tissue was recorded by TC-2000 Meter (Sable Systems International). When the tissue temperature keeps stable, mice were treated with norepinephrine at a dose of 3 mg per kg body weight to induce non-shivering thermogenesis.

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.
