Hypoxic and Normoxic Conditions in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female C57BL6/J mice, 8–10 weeks (young) and 20 months (aged), were housed 4 to a cage, and placed into a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix) maintained at 8% O2 for periods up to 14 days. Littermate control mice were kept in the same room under similar conditions except that they were kept at ambient sea‐level oxygen levels (normoxia, approximately 21% O2 at sea‐level) for the duration of the experiment. Every few days, the chamber was briefly opened for cage cleaning and food and water replacement as needed.

C57BL/6J male mice, 8–10 weeks of age, were housed 4 to a cage, and placed into a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix, Redfield, NY) for periods up to 4 days maintained at 8% O2. Control mice were kept in the same room under similar conditions except that they were kept at ambient oxygen levels (normoxia) for the duration of the experiment. Every few days, the chamber was briefly opened for cage cleaning and food and water replacement as needed.

Hypoxic Acclimation in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Wild-type C57Bl/6 littermate mice, 8-10 weeks of age, were housed 4 to a cage, and placed into a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix, Redfield, NY) for 7 days maintained at different oxygen levels of 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16% O2. Control mice were kept in the same room under similar conditions except that they were kept at ambient sea-level oxygen levels (normoxia, approximately 21% O2 at sea-level) for the duration of the experiment. In subsequent experiments, mice were maintained at 8% and 13% O2 for periods of 7 and 14 days. Every few days, the chamber was briefly opened for cage cleaning and food and water replacement as needed.

Female C57BL6/J mice, 8–10 weeks (young) and 20 months (aged), were housed 4 to a cage, and placed into a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix, Redfield, NY) maintained at 8% O2 for periods up to 14 days. Littermate control mice were kept in the same room under similar conditions except that they were kept at ambient sea-level oxygen levels (normoxia, approximately 21% O2 at sea-level) for the duration of the experiment.

Clonogenicity Assay under Hypoxia

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were seeded (100 cells/well) into a 6 well plate and cultured for 10 days under normal culture conditions (21% O2) or hypoxia (1% O2, Biospherix hypoxic chamber). Clonogenicity was assessed by staining colonies with crystal violet and number of colonies counted using Image J and data expressed as cellular survival fraction.

Chronic Hypoxia and Pharmacological Treatments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Chronic hypoxic rearing was performed as previously described [35 (link), 48 (link), 53 (link), 54 (link)]. Briefly, litters of the C57Bl6/J strain were culled to a size of, at most, ten pups and co-fostered with CD1 or Swiss Webster strain dams then reared at 10% O2 in a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix, Inc., Laconia, NY) from postnatal day 3 (P3) to P11. Tissue from P4, P7, P11, P22, or P40 was then harvested acutely for analysis. On P3, pups received daily intraperitoneal injections of prednisolone (0.67 g/kg body weight, Sigma-Aldrich), SAG (20 g/kg body weight), prednisolone in combination with SAG, or vehicle (DMSO), for 8 days, or the duration of the hypoxic experiment. For acute treatment, a one-time dose of SAG was given at P11.

Simulated Ischemia in C2C12, VSMC, and HUVEC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C2C12 (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA; cat# CRL-1772) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) were grown in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) + 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Cell Applications, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA; cat# 250K-05n). Pooled human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were purchased from Cell Applications, Inc. (cat# 200K-05n) and grown in standard EC growth medium (Cell Applications, Inc.; cat# 211–500) with 10% FBS. Simulated ischemia was achieved, as previously described.15 (link),16 (link) Briefly, cells were grown under hypoxic conditions (2% oxygen; hypoxic chamber BioSpherix, Lacona, NY, USA) in EC serum starvation media (Cell Applications, Inc.; cat# 209–250) for 24 hours. Control cells (normoxia) were grown in 10% FBS EC media + 21% oxygen. To simulate ischemia in C2C12 and VSMC cells, they were grown in DMEM without serum + 2% oxygen while controls cells were grown in DMEM with 10% serum and 21% oxygen

Hypoxic Chamber for Mice Studies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A hypoxic chamber (BioSpherix, Parish, NY, USA) was used to expose the mice to hypoxia (Figure 1A). In this chamber, the oxygen concentration was constantly maintained by an oxygen controller (BioSpherix), and the heater riser plate (BioSpherix) was set to warm up inside. The plate had two exhaust ducts and three fans, which circulated the air and rapidly homogenized the temperature inside. The plate contained a thermometer connected to a heat controller (BioSpherix), which was regulated to automatically adjust to the target temperature.

Following immunization with PLP139–151 peptide, mice, housed 4 to a cage, were randomly divided into two groups: one was placed into a hypoxic chamber (Biospherix, Redfield, NY) maintained at 10% O2 for the duration of the experiment, while the control group was kept in the same room under similar conditions except that they were kept at ambient sea-level oxygen levels (normoxia, approximately 21% O2 at sea-level). Every day, the chamber was briefly opened to allow for clinical assessment of mice and cage cleaning and food and water replacement.

Isolation and Culture of CD117+ Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples were processed in accordance with the previous described method [18 (link)]. Briefly, cells from AFs were seeded on glass coverslips, and adherent cells were then positively selected for CD117 by using the MACS CD117 MicroBead Kit from Miltenyi Biotec (Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Cells were cultured by using reconstituted Chang Medium C Lyophilized (Irvine Scientific, Santa Ana, CA, USA) before selection and then in expansion medium consisting of minimum essential medium alpha (Gibco, now part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) containing 20 % Chang medium, 15 % fetal bovine serum (Gibco), antibiotics and L-Glutamine (2 mM final). Cells were maintained under standard 20 % O2, 5 % CO2 and 95 % relative humidity, referred to as “normoxia”. Cells were also cultured under “hypoxia” at 5 % O2 by using a CO2/O2 controller connected to a hypoxic chamber (BioSpherix, Lacona, NY, USA).

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.
