Cardioprotective Effects of Factor 1 against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Example 3
To confirm the cardiomyocyte-protective effects of Factor 1 observed in the screen, neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes were subjected to simulated ischemia-reperfusion injury in the presence or absence of recombinant Factor 1. Factor 1 (mouse homologue encoded by the nucleic acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 7) was produced in COS7 cells as a His-tagged recombinant protein. As shown in
Ventricular cardiomyocytes were isolated from 1 to 3-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats by Percoll density gradient centrifugation. Cardiomyocytes were exposed to simulated ischemia for 180 min (glucose-free medium containing 2-deoxyglucose in 5% CO2/95% N2 atmosphere) followed by simulated reperfusion for 60 min (back to glucose-containing medium in 5% CO2/95% room air) in the absence (control) or presence of recombinant human GDF-15 (R&D Systems, known anti-apoptotic cytokine) or different concentrations of recombinant mouse Factor 1, as indicated. Cell death was assessed by in situ TdT-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL). N=3 independent experiments per condition; *P<0.05 vs. 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.
