The drugs used were the following: AM404 [R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN) and Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA)]; MRS1477 and AM251 [Fisher Scientific]; capsazepine [VWR (Radnor, PA) and Cayman Chemical (Ann Arbor, MI)]; CP-55,940 [Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Dallas, TX)]; JZL184 [Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO) and Cayman Chemical]. All drugs were dissolved in 5% DMSO, 15% Tween 80 in sterile physiological saline and injected intraperitoneal at 10 mL/kg. The doses of drugs used were based on previous studies: AM404 at 10 mg/kg (Gamaleddin et al., 2013 (link)), MRS1477 at 10 mg/kg (Kaszas et al., 2012 (link)), AM251 at 1 mg/kg (Chen et al., 2004 (link)), capsazepine at 5 mg/kg (dos-Santos-Pereira et al., 2016 (link)), CP-55,940 at 30 μg/kg (Vinod et al., 2008 (link)), and JZL184 at two doses: 2 mg/kg and 18 mg/kg (Oleson et al., 2012 (link); Hartley et al., 2016 (link)).

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.
