Axon Regeneration Inhibitor Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All test substances were introduced into DPBS −/− prior to axon transection. All cells were exposed to the test substance(s) in Ca2+-free DPBS −/− for 7 minutes, during which cells were transected, before adding Ca2+-containing DPBS +/+ and no test substance(s). These test substances included tatCN21 (5 μM), tatSCR (5 μM), KN-93 (20 μM), KN-92 (20 μM) (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, US), STO-609 acetate (5 μM, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, US), and DMSO (90 μM and 28 mM, Fisher Scientific, Fair Lawn, NJ). To assist solvation, stock solutions of KN-93, KN-92 and STO-609 were dissolved in DMSO and diluted in DPBS −/−, resulting in a final DMSO concentration of 28 mM (0.2% v/v).

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.
