Tph1-CFP mice were euthanized at 5–7 weeks, and a 10-cm length of small bowel or colon was removed. Full thickness tissue was inverted, chopped, and washed three times in ice-cold PBS. The tissue was digested under agitation at 37 °C in DMEM (D6546, Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 0.1% BSA (A2153, Sigma, St. Louis, Missouri), and 0.1 mg/mL (small bowel) or 0.6 mg/mL (colon) Collagenase type XI (C9407, Sigma, St. Louis, MO) in 4 separate digestions, for a total of 30 (small bowel) or 40 (colon) minutes. Supernatants were collected from the last two digestions, spun twice at 100 rcf for 5 minutes, and suspended at 1,000,000 cells per mL in DMEM (D6546, Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 5% Heat Inactivated FBS (F4135, Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 1% Pen-step (15140122, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), 1% L-Glutamine (2503008, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), and 10 µM (small bowel) Y-27632 (72304, Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada) in dishes (P35GC-1.5-14-C, MatTek Corporation, Ashland, MA) coated with 5% w/v Matrigel (354230, Corning, Corning, NY).

Caco-2 Cell Culture for SGLT1 Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The small intestinal enterocytic cell line Caco-2/TC7 (Caco-2) cells were maintained at 37°C and 5% CO2 in Dulbecco's modified Eagles' medium (D6546, Sigma), supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum, 1% (v/v) non-essential amino acid solution (M7145, Sigma), L-glutamine (2 mM), and penicillin/streptomycin (100 U/ml; 100 μg/ml) (basal medium). Six well plates were seeded with Caco-2 cells at 100,000 cells/cm2 and grown to confluency (~7 d) before being incubated in media containing either 0.5 mM 8-Br-cAMP, as described before (5 (link)) or a range of concentrations of VIP, PACAP, CRH, CGRP, or Substance P. Control wells were treated with basal medium only. Equal amounts of solvents, acetic acid or acetic acid with 1% (w/v) bovine serum albumin, were included in corresponding control media. The time course of the response was determined to establish that 24 h incubation period was the shortest period to give a reliable and significant difference in SGLT1 expression (data not shown). Cells were harvested after 24 h. Cell pellets were collected after centrifugation and frozen at −80°C until used.

Immortalized, wild-type STHdh[Q7/Q7] (abbreviated to STHdh) murine striatal cell lines from Coriell Cell Repository (Cambden, NJ) were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (D6546, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis MO). DMEN was supplemented with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) (Atlanta Biologicals, Flowery Branch, GA), 2 mM GlutaMAX (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA), Penicillin-Streptomycin, 0.5 mg/ml G418 Sulfate (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA), MEM non-essential amino acids solution (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA), and 14 mM HEPES (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). The STHdh cells were incubated in 33°and 5% CO2 and passaged by utilizing 0.05% Trypsin-EDTA solution (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). The STHdh cells were plated at 80,000 cells/ml (Williams et al. 2010a; Williams et al. 2010b) and were cultured on Matrigel to mimic the plate conditions of the neural lineages. Twenty-four hours after replating, cells were exposed to different human neuronal differentiation media types to test for media-dependent effects on Mn cytotoxicity.

Adrenal glands from WT and 3xTg mice were isolated and rapidly placed in ice-cold Locke solution ((in mM) 154 NaCl, 5.5 KCl, 3.6 NaHCO3, 10 Hepes, and 5.5 glucose (pH = 7.4)) after their sacrifice by cervical dislocation. The glands were fat trimmed, and the medullae of both glands were isolated from the capsule and the cortex and placed in a 1.5 mL tube containing 200 uL of Locke’s solution and papain (25 U/mL, Sigma-Aldrich) for tissue digestion at 37 °C for 26 min. This solution was exchanged with 1 mL of Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; D6546, Sigma-Aldrich), repeating the exchange three times and finally leaving 120 μL of DMEM. Then, the medullae were mechanically digested by mincing them first with a 1 mL and then with a 200 μL micropipette tip. Finally, the residual medulla fragments were discarded and 10 μL drops of DMEM containing the cells were placed on poly-D-lysine-coated coverslips in 24-well plates. After a 1 h incubation (37 °C, water saturated, and 5% CO2 atmosphere), 500 μL of DMEM supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum, 50 IU/mL penicillin, and 50 μg/mL streptomycin was added to each well. Experiments were conducted within the following 3 days.

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.
