Modulating Protein Aggregation in Fibroblasts

For activation of the HS pathway in human and mouse fibroblasts, an established HSP90 inhibitor, BIIB021 (Selleckchem, Houston, TX), was used at 100 nM concentration (Lundgren et al., 2009 (link)). To inhibit the proteasome, Wt and HSP70.1/3−/− MEFs were plated in 2% FCS and allowed to proliferate for 24 hr. Following this, the cultures were treated with 30 μM lactacystin (Lc) (Biomol Research Laboratories, PA) or its vehicle dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; Sigma, St. Louis, MO), for 16 hr in 0% FCS (Notterpek et al., 1999 (link)). Treatment conditions were selected after testing multiple doses and paradigms to achieve aggregate count in 50% of the cells (Fortun et al., 2007 (link)). This experimental model allowed us to assess the effects of BIIB021 and 3-methyladenine (3-MA; Sigma, St. Louis, MO) on aggregate formation. The compound 3-MA is a known inhibitor of autophagy through class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases when used at 4 mM for 16 hr (Wu et al., 2010 (link)).

Testing was last performed in February 2014. Cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 media (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum and gentamicin 50ug/mL (Sigma-Aldrich). PU-H71, PU-H71-beads, and control beads were synthesized and prepared at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center as previously reported(13 (link),14 (link)). Idelalisib (CAL-101), IPI-145, BKM120 (15 (link)), BEZ-235 (16 (link)), ganetespib (17 (link)), and BIIB-021 (18 (link)) were purchased from Selleck Chemicals.

HSP90 inhibitor
compounds, including AT13387 (S1163), AUY922 (S1069), BIIB021 (S1175),
SNX5422 (S2656), and STA9090 (S1159), were purchased from Selleckchem
(Houston, TX) and stored at a stock concentration of 1 mM in DMSO.
Primary Schwann cells were treated with HSP90 inhibitors at the indicated
concentrations in complete media (see above), 24 h after seeding.
DMSO served as the vehicle control while geldanamycin (GA) was used
as a positive control for heat shock pathway activation. The DRG explant
cultures were maintained for 7 days in ascorbate-containing media
prior to treatment with either DMSO, AUY922 (100 nM), or BIIB021 (100
nM), every third day (72 h apart). Cultures were procured, 24 h after
the third treatment, for either biochemical or immunochemical analyses.15 (link)

Pressure-Induced NPSC Response Modulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To mimic the in vivo compression environment, a stainless-steel pressure vessel was utilized following the protocols previously established by our group (Chen et al., 2017 (link), 2018 (link); Li et al., 2018a (link); Wang W. et al., 2018 (link)). NPSCs which were cultured in cell culture dishes or plates as monolayer were placed on the bracket in the pressure apparatus and exposed to 1.0 MPa pressure for different time periods. The pressure vessel was supplied with a small quantity of double distilled water at the bottom to maintain moisture and placed in an incubator at 37°C.
The HSP90 inhibitor BIIB021, RIPK1 inhibitor Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1), RIPK3 inhibitor GSK′872, MLKL inhibitor Necrosulfonamide (NSA), proteasome inhibitor MG132, and HSP70 inhibitor Ver155008 (Ver) were all purchased from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, United States). For all experiments, NPSCs were pretreated with inhibitors for 2 h before compression treatment, while control groups were given isopyknic dimethylsulfoxide as vehicle control.

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.
