Measuring GAPDH Activity in Cell Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In order to measure the GAPDH activity of the various O and T variants cell pellets were resuspended in 1 ml PBS, disrupted by sonication and clarified at 13,000 ×  g for 10 min at 4 °C. Extracts were kept on ice until required. The GAPDH assay was a measurement of the reduction of NAD (β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrate) according to Fillinger et al.34 (link), with modifications. Using a 1 ml disposable cuvette, 900 μl triethanolamine/sodium arsenate buffer (125 mM triethanolamine [Sigma], 5 mM L-cysteine [Sigma], 20 mM sodium arsenate [Sigma], 50 mM disodium hydrogen phosphate, Na2HPO4 [Merck], pH 9.2), 2 mM NAD [Sigma] and 60 μl cell extracts were mixed and read at A340nm at 25 °C. Initially, the mixture was allowed to react for about 10 seconds to ensure that there is nothing in the solution reducing the NAD. Thereafter, 4 mM D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, G-3-P (substrate) [Sigma] was added and the reaction was recorded for 3–5 minutes. One unit causes an initial reaction of reduction of one micromole of NAD per minute and is calculated as follows, where the ΔA340/minute is the linear portion of the graph: Unitspermg=ΔA340nmperminute6.22×mgenzymepermlreactionmixture
The amount of GAPDH was then calculated relative to the O variant of each strain. Data were analysed using Student’s unpaired t-test.

Arsenic Exposure Impacts Murine Brain Development

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All procedures were conducted in accordance with protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at the University of New Mexico. Animals were maintained in a 22 °C vivarium on a 12-h reverse light/dark cycle with lights off at 08:00 and ad libitum access to water and food. Exposure to arsenic during all three trimesters of brain development was performed as previously described (Tyler and Allan, 2013 (link)). Briefly, singly housed female C57BL/6J mice aged 55 days (Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, ME) were acclimated to drinking 50 ppb arsenic-laced water (sodium arsenate, Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) for seven to ten days prior to mating. Dams were provided either 50 ppb arsenic water or tap water during breeding and pregnancy until offspring were weaned (Fig. 1A). Offspring were housed two per cage with tap water for the remainder of the study. The number of dams used in this study is reflected in the number of litters provided for each experimental analysis (i.e. n = 8–10 indicates that only one animal was used from each of 8 to 10 litters from 8 to 10 different dams). Adult male offspring (postnatal day 70) from dams drinking arsenic water were euthanized by rapid decapitation for tissue dissection or by overdose with sodium pentobarbital followed by transcardiac perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde for neurogenesis assessment.

Arsenic Tolerance Levels Determination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Tolerance levels to arsenic (TLA) for the isolates was determined by the agar dilution technique, on Luria Bertani (LB) agar (Becton Dickinson and Company, Maryland, MO, USA) plates supplemented with different concentrations of sodium arsenite (0.5–100 mM) (Sigma-Aldrich, San Luis, MO, USA) or sodium arsenate (0.5–1000 mM) (Sigma-Aldrich, San Luis, USA). Each plate was inoculated with cell suspensions from fresh pre-cultures at a final density of approximately 107 colony forming units (CFU) mL−1 and incubated for 24 h at 25 °C. To be used as control, LB agar plates were seeded with bacteria but without the metalloid. The criterion to consider bacterial strains as resistant or sensitive to As(III) or (As(V) was the one described by Rokbani et al. [35 (link)]. The bacterial strain capable to tolerate the highest arsenite and arsenate concentrations was selected to perform all the following experiments.

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.
