Interstitial Fluid Glucose Measurement

Xenografts were dissected within 2 min after the mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. They were weighed, briefly washed in PBS, put on a cell sieve with 20-μm pores (pluriStrainer, 20 μm, Pluriselect) on top of a 50-ml tube, and centrifuged at 300g at 4°C for 10 min. Flow-through interstitial fluid was collected (5 to 100 μl per xenograft). Glucose concentration in the interstitial fluid was measured by the Glucose colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit (Merck), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Five microliters of interstitial fluid was used per measurement. Blood glucose was measured by tail vein puncture using an Accu-Check Guide glucometer (Roche).

Glucose and Insulin Tolerance Tests

Mice were fasted for 6 h prior to glucose tolerance test and 4 h prior to Insulin tolerance test, starting at 6:00 a.m. Mice were single-housed during the fasting period and the duration of the test. Water was provided ad libitum. Basal glucose levels were measured before intraperitoneal injection of the glucose or Insulin solution (fixed dose of 42 mg glucose (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MI, United States), and 0.02 IU Insulin (Novo Nordisk, Bagsvaerd, Denmark)), respectively. Blood glucose levels (mg/dl, measured with Accucheck guide glucometer (Roche, Basel, Switzerland)) were measured after 15, 30, 60, and 120 min of glucose injection. Blood samples were taken from the tail vein.

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.
