Four hundred CTOS were treated with 1 mg/mL or 0.01 mg/mL EPI or MMC. The CTOS exposed to 1 mg/mL EPI or MMC were washed after 2 h exposure, and incubated in StemPro hESC. Three days after treatment, CTOS were collected and analyzed to detect DNA laddering using the Apoptotic DNA Ladder Kit (Roche, Mannheim, Germany) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, the collected CTOS were lysed and the DNA was extracted. The extracted DNA was electrophoresed on a 1% agarose gel. The gel was immersed in 10 mg/mL ethidium bromide solution for 15 min. The electrophoresed DNA was visualized under UV light.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Qualitative analysis of DNA fragmentation was performed by agarose gel electrophoresis of total genomic DNA extracted from untreated and allicin treated promastigotes. Leishmania promastigotes were exposed to allicin (30 μM and 60 μM) for 24, 48 and 72h. After drug exposure cells were washed twice in sterile PBS (1000 xg, 10 min, RT) and the total DNA was extracted from the cell pellet (108 promastigotes) using the Apoptotic DNA ladder kit (Roche) following manufacturer’s protocol. The DNA was quantified at 260/280 nm using a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer. The genomic DNA (5 μg) was run on a 2% agarose gel containing SYBR Safe DNA gel stain for 1 h at 100 V and visualized under UV light using the DNA Molecular Weight marker XIV (Roche).

Measuring Cerebrovascular Apoptosis Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Caspase-3 activity levels in isolated cerebral microvessels as well as murine cerebrovascular endothelial cells were assayed as previously described by Yin et al. with minor modifications17 (link). Briefly, 1 × lysis buffer was applied to lyse cerebrovascular endothelial cells. Following 10 min on ice, the cell lysate was spun down for 10 min at 10000 g (4 °C). The resulting supernatant was subjected to a caspase-3 activity assay according to the kit’s instructions (Caspase-3 Assay Kit, Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). A microtiter plate reader was used to read optical density (OD) values at 405 nm. Relative caspase-3 activity was calculated by comparing OD levels from the experimental groups against those of controls.
DNA fragmentation levels in isolated cerebral microvessels were assayed as previously described by Yin et al.17 (link). Briefly, we first extracted the genomic DNA from isolated cerebral microvessels. Then, a commercial apoptotic DNA-ladder kit (Roche) was employed to measure DNA fragmentation levels.

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.
