Acclimatization of ICR Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice (body weight, 22–25 g) were purchased from SPF Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Beijing, China) and acclimatized 3 days before experimentation. Mice were fed in captivity under standard laboratory conditions (25 ± 2°C, 50 ± 5% RH). Mice had free access to standard rat chow pellets and water ad libitum. The experimental protocol was approved by the Institutional Animal Ethical Committee (IAEC) of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Rhein Treatment in APP/PS1 Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Six-month-old male APP/PS1 mice and age-matched wild-type (WT) mice with the same background (C57BL/6) were obtained from Junke Biological Co., Ltd. (Nanjing, China). Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and ICR mice were obtained from SPF Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Beijing, China). All rats and mice were housed with a 12-hour light/dark cycle, constant temperature (25 ± 2°C), and relative humidity of 60 ± 5%. Among them, APP/PS1 and WT mice were housed one mouse per cage. Standard chow diet and water were allowed ad libitum. All experimental procedures were approved by the Ethics Committee for Animal Care and Treatment of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Animal suffering and the number of animals used were minimized to the great extent.
Rhein (CAS: 478-43-3, purity > 98%) was purchased from Shanghai Aladdin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). APP/PS1 and WT mice were randomly divided into three groups: the WT group (n = 6), the APP/PS1 group (n = 6), and the APP/PS1+rhein group (n = 6). They were intravenously injected with PBS, PBS, and rhein (20 mg/kg body weight) every two days for one month, respectively. In the third week during treatment, behavior tests were performed. After one-month treatment, the mice in different groups were sacrificed for therapeutic evaluation.

Enterovirus E30 Infection in ICR Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A previous study (PMID: 35420443) has demonstrated that no effective replication of E30 (strain WZ16) was found in the brain and other organs of wild-type C57 suckling mice by intracranial injecting E30 (Li et al., 2022 (link)). To better understand the effect of E30 on other types of mice, we selected E30 (strain TL1C/NM/CHN/2016) to infect Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) suckling mice, which are one of the most sensitive animals to human enterovirus. ICR mice were purchased from SPF Biotechnology Co., Ltd, (Beijing, China). Suckling mice were infected with 50 μl 106TCID50 E30 or culture medium [DEME/F12 basic and 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS)] via intramuscular injection. Weight, survival rate, and clinical scores of mice were recorded daily. The clinical disease standards were scored as follows: 0, no disease; 1, ruffled fur; 2, weight loss; 3, single limb paralysis; 4, both hind limb paralysis; and 5, moribund or dead. Mock-infected suckling mice in the E30-infected group were sacrificed 5 days after infection for brain tissue collection and transcriptome sequencing analysis.

Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b Heterozygous Mice Study

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All female ICR mice used in this study were obtained from SPF Biotechnology Co. Ltd. Heterozygous Dnmt3a+/− and Dnmt3b+/− mice that carry one mutant locus of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b, respectively (23 (link)), were obtained from the NIH mutant mouse research and resource center (MMRRC, NIH). All mice were maintained in a climate-controlled room on a 12-h light/dark cycle and allowed food and water ad libitum. The China Agricultural University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee approved this study, which was performed in accordance with the committee’s guidelines. All efforts were made to minimize animal suffering.

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.
