Murine Model of Ischemic Acute Kidney Injury

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Wild-type male C57BL/6 J mice aged 6-8 weeks (approx. 22 g) were used to establish the model of AKI induced by I/R. All mice were provided by the animal house of the Central Laboratory of the Ninth Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The experimental procedures were approved by the Ethics Committee of the Ninth People's Hospital (SH9H-2020-A655-1). Mice were equally divided into four groups: sham + normal saline (NS), I/R + NS, sham + 3-DZNeP, and I/R + 3-DZNeP. NS or 3-DZNeP (2 mg/kg, Selleck, USA) was intraperitoneally injected at 24 h before surgery. Mice were fasted for 12 h before the surgery. After anesthesia with 2% sodium pentobarbital (40 mg/kg), the abdomen of mouse was exposed, and both renal arteries were clamped for 30 min to achieve kidney ischemia. During this period, the animals were closely monitored to prevent a decrease in body temperature. After the ischemic period, the arterial clamps were removed. If the kidneys changed from dark red to bright red, it indicated a successful modeling. Then, 500 μL of sterile saline was added to the abdominal cavity, and the incision was sutured. The sham mice underwent the same surgical procedure without clamping the renal arteries. At 24 h after reperfusion, the mice were euthanized for blood and kidney collection.

MH-S cells, the SV40 transformed mouse alveolar macrophage cell line (CRI-2019, ATCC, Baltimore, Md, USA), were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, CA, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Australia Origin) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin in an atmosphere of 5% CO2, and 95% air at 37℃. According to the previous report [18 ], MH-S cells were polarized as M1 or M2 macrophages with the indicated stimulants: 50 ng/mL LPS (L3024, Sigma, Mo) 24 h for M1 polarization, and 10 ng/mL IL-4 (404-ML, R&D Systems) 24 h for M2 polarization. The 3-DZNeP (Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA) (0, 1, 2, 5 and 10 μM) was added 24 h before LPS or IL-4 stimulation. The small interfering (si) RNA oligonucleotides targeted to EZH2 (GenePharma, Shanghai, PR China) were used to knock down EZH2 more specifically in vitro. The MH-S cells were transfected with EZH2 siRNA (100 pmol) with lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA) or scrambled siRNA (100 pmol) according to the manufacturer’s instructions 24 h before LPS or IL-4 stimulation. After different stimulations, cells and supernatants were harvested for analyses. All of the in vitro experiments were repeated at least three times.

3-DZNeP Attenuates Sepsis-Induced AKI

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To study the effect of 3-deazaneplanocin A(3-DZNeP) (Selleckchem, Houston, USA) on sepsis-induced AKI, after injecting LPS or CLP, 3-DZNeP (2 mg/kg) was delivered intraperitoneally every day after that. Equal amounts of saline were injected into the control group. On the third day following the injection of LPS or CLP, the mice were sacrificed.

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.
