Etomoxir

Manufactured by Bio-Techne
Sourced in United Kingdom

Etomoxir is a chemical compound used in research laboratories. It functions as an inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), an enzyme involved in the transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for β-oxidation. Etomoxir is utilized in research studies to investigate cellular energy metabolism and the role of fatty acid oxidation in various biological processes.

Cells were seeded at 1000 cells per mL in their respective growth medium with 2% matrigel on low adherence plates (Corning, Corning, NY, USA). Control BSA treated cells were grown with 34 µM BSA (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) final concentration, and treatments contained 0.5 µM of L-carnitine with BSA or 30 µM final concentration BSA-conjugated Palmitic Acid (Tocris, Bristol, UK). Etomoxir (Tocris, Bristol, UK) was used at 10 and 100 µM in the spheroid growth medium. Spheroid cultures were maintained for 2 weeks; the treatments were added on day 0 and renewed on day 7. Spheroid diameter was determined before harvest by counting 10 separate 100× fields with ImageJ. After imaging and counting, 1st generation spheroids were dissociated using Trypsin and 1000 cells seeded with 2% matrigel on low adherence plates for 2nd generation spheroids. These were maintained for another 3 weeks in the absence of new Etomoxir treatment but with renewing of growth media. At the end of the incubation period, spheroid diameter was determined after imaging.

To block RA signaling, a total of 220 mg of the pan RA receptor inverse agonist BMS 493 (R&D Systems; RAi) was resuspended in 30 µl of biotechnology performance–certified DMSO (Sigma-Aldrich) and administered intraperitoneally to C57BL/6 WT mice every day for 8 d as previously described (Kastner et al., 2001 (link)). To block FAO, mice were administered 15 mg/kg etomoxir (Tocris Bioscience) every other day throughout the course of infection or for 7 d under steady-state conditions. To block glycolysis, mice were administered 1 g/kg 2-DG (Cayman Chemicals) every other day starting upon infection with T. muris for 7 d and then every day thereafter. For simultaneous treatment, mice were treated with the indicated combination in a total volume of 30 µl DMSO or DMSO only as a vehicle control. To block FA uptake, mice were treated with 200 mg/kg orlistat every other day starting 7 d after infection. Control mice received DMSO only.

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.
