Mitochondrial Toxicity Assays in Neuro2A Cells

To estimate the potential of the compounds of this invention to cause neuronal toxicity, mouse Neuro2A Cells (American Type Culture Collection 131) were used as a model system (see Ray A S, Hernandez-Santiago B I, Mathew J S, Murakami E, Bozeman C, Xie M Y, Dutschman G E, Gullen E, Yang Z, Hurwitz S, Cheng Y C, Chu C K, McClure H, Schinazi R F, Anderson K S. Mechanism of anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity of beta-D-6-cyclopropylamino-2′,3′-didehydro-2′,3′-dideoxyguanosine. Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 2005, 49, 1994-2001). The concentrations necessary to inhibit cell growth by 50% (CC50) were measured using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide dye-based assay, as described. Perturbations in cellular lactic acid and mitochondrial DNA levels at defined concentrations of drug were carried out as described above. In all experiments, ddC and AZT were used as control nucleoside analogs.

Cholesterol Depletion Modulates Drug Effects

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2a cells were purchased from ATCC (Rockville, MD, USA). Control human fibroblasts were obtained from Coriell Institute for Medical Research (Camden, NJ, USA). HepG2 and human dermal fibroblasts were maintained in DMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum and Neuro2a were maintained in EMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum. To determine the effect of drugs, cells were plated in 96-well plates and incubated at 37 °C in 5% CO2 for 48 h in presence and absence of different concentrations of ARI, TRZ, and ARI + TRZ. The treatment was performed in cholesterol deficient medium. HepG2 and human fibroblast cultures were grown in DMEM with 10% delipidated fetal bovine serum, and Neuro2a were grown in EMEM plus N2 supplement. At the end point of the incubation, Hoechst dye was added to all wells in the 96-well plate, and the total number of cells was counted using an ImageXpress Pico and cell counting algorithm using CellReporterXpress. After removing the medium, wells were rinsed twice with 1× PBS and then stored at −80 °C for sterol analysis. All samples were analyzed within 2 weeks of freezing.

Optimized Lyssavirus Neutralization Assays

Selected RABVs and non‐RABV lyssaviruses were initially cultured on Neuro‐2A cells (ATCC cat n. CCL‐131) and further adapted on BSR cells (a clone of BHK‐21). Two protocols slightly modified from fluorescent antibody virus neutralization (mFAVN) and from rapid fluorescent foci inhibition (mRFFIT) test (Cliquet et al, 1998; Warrell et al, 2008), respectively, were applied to test the potency of antibodies under study. CVS‐11 working stock was amplified and titrated on either BSR or BHK‐21, according to the neutralization test adopted, RFFIT or FAVN, respectively. In addition, standard FAVN and RFFIT assays were undertaken to assess the potency of tested antibodies against CVS‐11. Briefly, mFAVN assays were based on standard FAVN but were undertaken on BSR cells.

COS-7 cells (ATCC CRL-1651) were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 units/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. AML12 cells (ATCC CRL-2254) were cultured in a 1:1 mixture of DMEM and Ham's F-12 medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 units/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.005 mg/ml insulin, 0.005 mg/ml transferrin, 5 ng/ml selenium, and 40 ng/ml dexamethasone. All cells were maintained at 37 °C, 95% humidity, and 5% CO2. Cells were transfected with Metafectene® (Biontex GmbH, Munich, Germany) according to the manufacturer's instructions and used for experiments 24 h thereafter. Cells were treated with 400 μm oleic acid bound to bovine serum albumin (BSA; essentially fatty acid-free, Sigma-Aldrich), 1 mm 8-CPT-cAMP, or 1 mm 8-CPT-cGMP for 16 h or with Hanks' buffered salt solution for 4 h before being processed for imaging or lipid hydrolase assays.

Murine neuroblastoma Neuro2A cells (ATCC, Manassas, VA) were maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium DMEM H-21 (Sigma Aldrich) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Medium was removed and replaced by Opti-MEM (Sigma Aldrich) and transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Invitrogen). After 4 hours, medium was replaced by DMEM-10% FBS. Forty-eight hours after transfection, cell differentiation was induced by replacing the medium with DMEM-1% FBS for another 48 hours.

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.
