Isolation and Culture of MUSCs

C2C12 cells were cultured in complete Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco BRL, Grand Island, New York) in a 37% CO2 humidified incubator. Isolation and culture of MUSCs were performed as previously described.23 Briefly, the hindlimb muscle tissues were isolated and fully cut into pieces. Then, the pieces were then digested with collagenase I for 1 h and centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the precipitate was digested with trypsin for 15 min. The pellet was resuspended in a culture flask after centrifugation. The suspension was transferred to a new flask coated with Matrigel for 2.5 h, and AdipoRon (Selleck Chemicals, China) was used to activate APNrs.

Four-week old mice fed with the LP, NP and HP diets were treated via oral gavage of DMSO (as control) or AdipoRon according to a 2 × 3 factorial design. AdipoRon (Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX, USA) dissolved in DMSO (Sigma) was suspended in 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose and was then administered orally to each group of mice (n = 6) at a dose of 50 mg/kg per day. This dosage was observed to have beneficial effects on metabolism, lifespan, and anti-apoptosis [[33] (link), [34] (link), [35] (link)]. Mice were sacrificed for sampling 28 days after treatment.

Ang II-Induced Hypertension and AdipoRon

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Male, 8–12 week-old C57BL/6J background mice were used in the present study. To induce hypertension, mice (n=5) were subcutaneously infused with Ang II (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) at a 1,500 ng/kg/min dose for 14 days with ALZET mini osmotic pumps (DURECT Corporation, Cupertino, CA, USA), and in the sham group mice were treated with saline (n=5). Blood pressure was measured non-invasively every day by the tail-cuff method (Softron BP-98A; Softron Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). To determine the role of APN receptor in hypertensive vascular injury, Ang II-infused mice received APN receptor agonist AdipoRon (n=5, 30 mg/kg/day; Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX, USA) via a gavage tube. The experiments were performed in adherence with the National Institutes of Health guidelines on the Use of Laboratory Animals and were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Shanghai, China).

The CNE-2 and S18 cell lines were kindly gifted by Professor Chaonan Qian at SYSUCC. HNE2, 5-8F, C666-1 and 6-10B cells were from the Central South University Advanced Research Center (Changsha, Hunan, China). HNE2, 5-8F and 6-10B cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium, CNE-2 and S18 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified eagle medium containing 4.5 mg/mL glucose, all supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 ug/mL streptomycin (Hyclone, Logan, UT, USA). Cells were maintained in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C. The cell line was authenticated via deoxyribonucleic-acid profiling using short tandem repeat analysis.
Recombination human full-length adiponectin was dissolved in deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/mL (BioVendor, Brno, Czech Republic). AdipoRon was dissolved in DMSO to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 50 mM (Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX, USA). Compound C was purchased from MedChem Express (Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA), and was prepared as a stock concentration at 10 mM in DMSO and stored at − 80 °C.

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.
