Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal experiments conducted in this study were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of the Air Force Medical University of PLA in China (No. IACUC-20181204) and were performed in accordance with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, 8th edition. C57BL/6J mice were housed in a pathogen-free animal facility at 22±2 ℃ under a controlled 12-h light-dark cycle. We performed the following studies with male litter FASN-2A-GLuc mice: (I) a fasting and refeeding study, in which mice were randomly split into 3 groups (n=5–6 mice/group)—the ad libitum feeding group, the fasting group (fasting for 24 h), and the refeeding group (fasting for 24 h and refeeding for 4 h); and (II) a fatostatin-administration study (n=5– 6 mice/group), in which mice were given glucose and fructose solutions (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MI, USA) and treated intraperitoneally with either corn oil (control) or fatostatin (30 mg/kg; Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX, USA) daily for 6 days.

Breast Cancer Cell Line Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, T47D, MDA-MB-231, and MDA-MB-468 were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). All cells were cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2. The cell lines were characterized by Genetic Testing Biotechnology Corporation using short tandem repeat (STR) markers. Tamoxifen (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) was dissolved in ethanol and ethanol was used as the vehicle control. Fatostatin (Selleck, USA) was dissolved in DMSO and DMSO was used as the vehicle control.

Monocytes were differentiated with 40ng/ml IL-4 (Human: R&D Systems #204-IL; Murine: PeproTech #214–14-50UG) plus 200ng/ml GM-CSF (PeproTech #315–03-50UG) or M-CSF (30ng/ml) in IMDM with GlutaMAX (Gibco #31980–030), 1mM HEPES (Life Technologies #15630080), 100 U/ml Penicillin/Streptomycin (Life Technologies #15140122), 100 mM Na-Pyruvate (Life Technologies #11360070), MEM-NEAA (Life Technologies #11140050), and 10% Heat-inactivated FBS (Thermo Fisher #10438026) for 5 days. Monocytes were differentiated in the presence of 5 μM Olaparib (Selleckchem AZD2281 #S1060), 5 μM of the STING inhibitor (H151; Invivogen #inh-h151), 5 μM Fatostatin (Selleckchem #S8284), 100 nM Niraparib (Selleckchem MK-4827 #S7625), or 10 nM Talazoparib (Selleckchem BMN 673 #S7048) during the entire 5 day differentiation. The STING agonist (Chemitek #CT-ADUS100) was used at 5uM and was added for 24 hours before collection of cells. Cells were washed and collected using ice-cold dPBS with 2mM EDTA (Ca2+/Mg2+-free) and analyzed with flow cytometry.

A small-molecule inhibitor of SREBP-1, 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)urea, was chemically synthesized (1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ(ppm): 8.90 (d, J = 29.0 Hz, 2H), 8.58 (d, J = 2.6 Hz, 1H), 8.17 (dd, J = 4.7, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.98–7.87 (m, 1H), 7.43 (d, J = 2.1 Hz, 4H), 7.29 [(dd, J = 8.2, 4.7 Hz, 1H), MS m/z (M + H)+: 292.41] was also gifts from Prof. and Dr. Fan Yin in the Department of Oncology, The Second Medical Center & National Clinical Research Center of Geriatric Disease, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China. The SREBP-1 inhibitors fatostatin (catalog number: S9785) and betulin (S4754) were purchased from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA). The powder of SI-1, fatostatin, or betulin was prepared as described in the previous publications (31 (link)–34 (link)). HCC cells were cultured and treated with the indicated concentrations of agents, and harvested for real-time reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, or biochemical analyses.

Olaparib and Anti-CSF-1R Combination Therapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were treated with daily with intraperitoneal (IP) injections of the vehicle dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or Olaparib (Selleckchem AZD2281# S1060) dissolved in DMSO at a final concentration of 50 mg kg−1 daily. For anti-CSF-1R treatment, mice were IP injected either with IgG2a or IgG2b isotype control to match the CSF-1R antibody used in each experiment (BioXCell #BE0089, clone 2A3; BioXCell #BE0090, clone LTF-2), or anti-CSF-1R Ab (0.525 mg/mouse, or 1.2 mg/mouse BioXCell #BE0213; clone AFS98; IgG2a) or anti-CSF-1R Ab (1.2 mg/mouse IP; a kind gift from Eli-Lilly; IgG2b) as a monotherapy or in combination with Olaparib twice a week. For CD8 depletion experiments; mice were treated twice a week either with IgG2b isotype control (0.2mg/mouse BioXCell #BE0090; clone LTF-2,) or anti-CD8 depletion antibodies (0.2mg/mouse; BioXCell #BE0117; clone YTS 169.4). In the fatostatin experiment, mice were treated with 1.2 mg/mouse anti-CSF-1R twice a week for 14 weeks then treated with 0.6 mg/mouse twice a week until endpoint. fatostatin (SelleckChem #S8284) treatment was performed as previously described64 (link) with the following modifications: mice were treated daily for 14 days with 15 mg/kg of fatostatin, followed by a 18 day break and then treated once a week until the mice reached the study endpoint.

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.
