Etomoxir hcl

Manufactured by Merck Group

Etomoxir-HCl is a chemical compound used in research applications. It is a potent and selective inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), an enzyme involved in the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for β-oxidation. Etomoxir-HCl is commonly used in studies related to energy metabolism, lipid metabolism, and the investigation of the role of fatty acid oxidation in various biological processes.

Prostate Cell Culture and Characterization

Cell lines were obtained from the University of Colorado Cancer Center Tissue Culture Core (year 2011) and were authenticated by Single Tandem Repeat analysis. Cells were used at low passage number and grown in RPMI or DMEM (for VCaP cells) containing 5% FBS supplemented with amino acids and Insulin (Hyclone). Charcoal stripped serum (CSS) was used for androgen-deprived conditions. Human prostate derived cells were isolated from de-identified surgical specimen at Wake Forest University using our previously described protocol (19 (link)). The histological origin of the sample was determined by analysis of the tissue surrounding the plug used for culture. Etomoxir-HCl (Sigma) was dissolved as a 15 mM stock solution; Orlistat (Sigma) was dissolved as a 50 mM stock in DMSO.

Cells were obtained from the University of Colorado Cancer Center and were authenticated by Single Tandem Repeat analysis (University of Colorado Cancer Center). Cells were passaged in RPMI (except VCaP cells in DMEM) (Invitrogen) containing 5 % fetal bovine Serum supplemented with amino acids and insulin (Hyclone). Human primary prostate-derived cells were isolated (IRB protocol: 00–812) and expanded in keratinocyte medium as previously described [13 (link)]. PC3-LUC cells were from Applied Biological Materials ABM and grown in Prigrow IV media (Applied Biological Materials ABM-TM004) plus 10 % FBS and 1 % P/S. Etomoxir-HCl (Sigma) was dissolved into a 10 mM stock solution in water and stored at −20 °C.

Prostate Cancer Cell Line Cultivation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell lines (LNCaP and 22Rv1) were obtained from the University of Colorado Cancer Center (UCCC) Tissue Culture Shared Resource (2014) and were authenticated by Single Tandem Repeat analysis. LNCaP MDV-resistant cells were made by growing them in increasing concentrations of MDV ranging from 1.25 to 2.5 uM for 6 months. Cells were passaged in RPMI media containing 5% FBS supplemented with amino acids and Insulin (Hyclone). TRAMPC1 cells (Gift from Dr. Agarwal, 2015, originally from ATCC) were grown in DMEM with 4 mmol/L L-glutamine, 5 μg/mL insulin, 10 nmol/L dihydrotestosterone (DHT), 5% FBS, and 5% Nu Serum (BD Biosciences). Etomoxir-HCl, Ranolazine·2HCL and Perhexiline maleate (all from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) were prepared as a 30, 40 and 15 mM stock solutions, respectively. Enzalutamide (MDV3100, Medivation, Inc), was dissolved as a 20 mM stock in DMSO.

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.
