Protective Effects of Vitamin C Against KBrO3 Toxicity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
KBrO3 used was purchased from Sigma Chemicals (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA), while the vitamin C was in the form of Cevarol oral drops (CID, Cairo, Egypt).
KBrO3 was injected (IP) (groups 3 and 4) at a toxic dose of 20 mg/kg body weight/dose twice weekly for 4 weeks prepared as 40 mg/ml of distilled water [14 (link)]. The vitamin C was given orally (groups 2 and 4) in a high dose of 30mg/kg/day; the dose was divided twice daily [3 ], for 4 weeks concomitant with KBrO3.

MARVELD1 Genotype Potassium Bromate Exposure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
1500 ppM KBrO3 (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) was given to 8 months old MARVELD1+/+ mice, MARVELD1+/− mice, and MARVELD1−/− mice in their drinking water for 5 weeks. After 5 weeks, all the mice were sacrificed. The collected blood serum, part of the livers and brains frozen quickly in liquid nitrogen for ELISA assays. The remaining livers and brains were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution for tissue immunofluorescence analysis. In this study, 5 MARVELD1+/+ mice, 5 MARVELD1+/− mice, and 5 MARVELD1−/− mice were included. Investigators undertaking the animal monitoring were blinded to the genotype of the mice.

Cytotoxicity Assay of KBrO3 in U2OS Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
U2OS-FAP-TRF1 (WT and DDB2 KO or control and OGG1 KD) cells were plated in 6-well plates 24 h prior to treatment. The next day, cells were treated with KBrO3 (Sigma 309087), (0–20 mM) for 1 h at 37 °C. After treatment, cells were trypsinized and counted, and 800 cells were plated in 6 cm dishes for the DDB2 KO experiment, and 500 cells were plated in each well of a 6-well plate for the OGG1 KD experiment (in triplicate for each condition). Cells were then allowed to recover for 8 days. On day 8, cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min at room temperature and colonies were stained using a 0.1% crystal violet, 20% methanol solution for 30 min at room temperature. The plates were washed with water and dried overnight before counting.

and
2’-deoxyguanosine-15N2,13C10-5’-monophosphate,
all from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Inc (Andover, Pennsylvania). Ultra-pure
water (Milli-Q; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) was used as indicated. All
reagents were analytical grade or better unless otherwise stated.

Larval Oxidative Stress Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Synchronized L1 larvae were obtained by hypochlorite treatment and were treated with indicated concentrations of KBrO3 (309087 Sigma-Aldrich) in liquid S-basal medium with OP50 for 24 h at 20 °C on a shaking platform. A minimum of 250 animals was used for each KBrO3 dose and each treatment was conducted in triplicate. Larval stages were identified using large particle flow cytometry.

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.
