Compounds Corilagin, Enalapril Maleate, Cangrelor, Elaidic Acid and Fenbendazole were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Missouri, USA). Compounds were reconstituted in water according to provider's instructions, except for Fenbendazole and Elaidic Acid which were reconstituted in 100% DMSO. DMSO never exceeded 1% in final dilutions for our assay and data for Fenbendazole and Elaidic Acid experiments were normalised to a DMSO vehicle control. Where possible, new stock solutions were made for each repeat. Recombinant RBD and full-length Spike (S1-S2) protein were purchased from SinoBiological (Beijing, China) and reconstituted in water according to provider's instructions.

The SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line was obtained from Peking Union Medical Center Laboratory (Beijing, China). SH-SY5Y cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (HyClone; GE Healthcare Life Science, Logan, UT, USA) at 37°C in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2. Elaidic acid was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) and was dissolved in DMEM to a concentration of 1 M, finally the stock solution was diluted with DMEM to a concentration of 1,000 µM and stored at −80°C until further use. All experiments were conducted under treatment with various doses (10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 400 or 800 µM) of Elaidic acid or vehicle (DMEM) for 24 h.

The chemicals used for MGYP media were purchased from Sigma -Aldrich. This comprises of Maltose, Glucose, Yeast (non -pathogenic) and Peptone. The water used for the whole experiments are purified by Milli Q system with a resistivity of 18.2 MΩ cm. Elaidic acid, NaOH pellets were also purchased from Sigma -Aldrich and used as received without any further purification. All solvents used for the entire experiments are analytical grade (AR). HCl was procured from Merck. Each time, a fresh solution of 0.1 M HCl and 5 M were used throughout the experiments.
Preparation of self -assembled structures. The self -assembled structures was prepared by pH variation method. It involves the following steps. Step 1:1 mL of Milli Q water was taken in a clean glass sample vial; step 2: weighed amount of SL (5 mg) powder was added to 1 mL of water (0.5 wt%); step 3: the pH of the solution was increased to basic (pH ~11) by adding 10 -20 µL of a 5 M NaOH solution and adjusted (decreased) to the desired value by adding µL amounts of freshly prepared 0.1 M HCl.

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.
