Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human HCC cell line Huh7 was obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC; USA) and maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) (Gibco; USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% non-essential amino acid, 1% L-glutamine, and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco) in a humidified incubator (Thermo Fisher; USA) at 37 °C under 5% CO2 atmosphere. For transfection, cells were plated on cell culture dishes at 70% confluence, and transfected on the following day with FuGENE HD transfection reagent (Roche; Switzerland). For treatment with statins, the HMG-CoA-reductase inhibitors fluvastatin (Sigma-Aldrich; USA), simvastatin (Sigma-Aldrich), atorvastatin (Sigma-Aldrich), rosuvastatin (Astra Zeneca; London, UK), lovastatin (Sigma-Aldrich), and pravastatin (Sigma-Aldrich) were dissolved in DMSO, and cells were treated with each of the six types of statin (final concentration 5 or 25 μM by dilution in medium) for three or 9 days and subjected to luciferase reporter assay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Western blotting. DMSO alone was used as negative control.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rats were randomized into the following groups (n=10/group): i) Control group, rats administered with 0.9% saline solution without ADR at 1 mg/kg/day for 14 days via intraperitoneal injection and with 0.9% saline without Rosuvastatin at a dosage of 1 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks by gavage administration; ii) ADR group, rats injected with equal volumes of ADR solution (ADR dissolved in 0.9% saline solution, 10 mg/ml) for 2 weeks plus administration of equal volumes of 0.9% saline solution without Rosuvastatin; iii) ADR+Rosuvastatin group, rats administered with equal volumes of ADR for 2 weeks and Rosuvastatin (1 mg/kg/day) (22 (link)) solution for 6 weeks (Rosuvastatin was dissolved in 0.9% saline solution, 10 mg/ml).

Rosuvastatin Reduces Aortic Aneurysm in ApoE-/- Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rosuvastatin (AstraZeneca, Wilmington, DE) was dissolved in 30-μL polysorbate 80. Normal saline was added to yield 100 mg/kg stock solutions. The saline vehicle was prepared similarly without the addition of Rosuvastatin. The dose of Rosuvastatin was chosen to elicit pleiotropic effects in the absence of lipid lowering as previously reported [23 (link),24 (link)]. ApoE-/- mice undergoing Ang II infusion were randomized and treated with daily intraperitoneal (IP) injections of saline vehicle (n = 8) or Rosuvastatin (n = 10) for 35 days, beginning 21 days prior to pump implantation. After this period of time, all animals were sacrificed and post-mortem measurements of suprarenal (SR) and IR aortic diameters were performed. AAA severity was classified as follows: Type 1, SR/IR ratio < 2; Type 2, SR/IR ratio > 2; Type 3, presence of aortic dissection. Measurements of serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were performed using enzymatic assay kits.

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.
