3h sphingosine

Manufactured by PerkinElmer
Sourced in Australia

[3H]-sphingosine is a radioactive tracer compound that can be used to study the metabolism and distribution of sphingosine, a bioactive lipid, in biological systems. It is a tool for researchers to investigate the role of sphingosine and sphingolipid pathways in various cellular processes and disease states.

Extracellular S1P Formation Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rate of extracellular S1P formation from intact vector control ‘low’, SK2 ‘low’ and SK2 ‘high’ NIH3T3 stable cell lines was determined essentially as previously described [47 (link)]. Briefly, cells were seeded in equal numbers at 80% confluence (in 20 cm2 dishes), and media was replaced with DMEM containing 0.5% DBS and incubated for a further 16 h. Cells were then labelled with 0.5 μCi of [3H]-sphingosine (Perkin-Elmer, Rowville, VIC, Australia) for 30 min, after which the conditioned media was collected. Extracellular [3H]-S1P generated in the conditioned medium was extracted and analyzed by scintillation counting.

Radioactive Pulse-Chase Assay for Lipid Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Radioactive pulse‐chase assay was performed as described earlier (D'Angelo et al, 2013 (link)). Briefly, HeLa‐M cells or human fibroblasts wi‐26 or GRASP55 KO cells were pulse labeled for 2 h with [3H]‐sphingosine (final concentration of 0.1 μCi/ml; Perkin Elmer) in serum‐free DMEM containing 1% fatty acid‐free BSA followed by a chase for indicated times in complete media. Lipids were then extracted from the cells, resuspended in chloroform, spotted onto silica‐gel high‐performance TLC (HPTLC) plates (Merck, Germany), resolved using a mixture of chloroform, methanol, and water (65:25:4 v/v/v) and quantified using GINA® (Raytest, Germany) software analysis.

Quantification of Extracellular S1P Release

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rate of extracellular S1P formation from intact cells was determined as previously described [52 (link)]. Briefly, cells were seeded into 6-well plates and were grown in MEM containing 10% FBS overnight. Cells, at 80% confluence, were then labeled with 0.5 µCi of [3H]-sphingosine (Perkin-Elmer, Rowville, VIC, Australia), delivered in serum-free media (7.5% final serum concentration on cells), for 30 min. The conditioned media were then collected and extracellular [3H]-S1P generated in the conditioned medium was extracted via a modified Bligh–Dyer extraction [52 (link)], and analyzed by scintillation counting. Analyses were performed in quadruplicate with data normalized to cell number.

Sphingosine Labeling Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sphingosine labeling assay was performed as previously described (Nakahara et al., 2012 (link)). Cells were incubated for 12 h at 37°C with DMEM containing charcoal-treated 10% FCS and for another 12 h with DMEM. Cells were then labeled with 0.6 μCi of [3H]sphingosine (PerkinElmer Life Sciences, Waltham, MA) for 4 h at 37°C. Lipids were extracted, separated by normal-phase TLC on Silica Gel 60 high-performance TLC plates (Merck Millipore, Billerica, MA) with 1-butanol/acetic acid/water (3:1:1 [vol/vol]), and visualized by fluorography.

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.
