Nicotine hydrogen tartrate, haloperidol, and R-(±) SCH-23390 were
purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). The nicotine and SCH-23390
for systemic administration was dissolved in 0.9% sterile saline
(Hospira Inc, Lake Forest, IL, USA). haloperidol and SCH-23390 for local
infusion were dissolved in artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF), which served
as the vehicle for both compounds.

The artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) consisted of 120 mM NaCl, 4.8 mM KCl, 1.2 mM KH2PO4, 1.2 mM MgSO4, 25 mM NaHCO3, 2.5 mM CaCl, 10 mM d-glucose, pH 7.2–7.4. Ethyl alcohol (190 proof) was obtained from McCormick Distilling, Weston, MO. The dopamine D2 receptor antagonist (−)-sulpiride and the D1 receptor antagonist R(+)-SCH23390 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). All chemicals were dissolved in the aCSF solution to the desired concentrations.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (CPZ, 25 mg/ml injectable blister, #50-53-3; Duncan Laboratory AS, Argentina) was donated by Dr. Martinez Mónaco and Dr. Pinedo (Italian Hospital of La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina) and stored at 4 C, protected from light. Chlorpromazine working solutions were prepared fresh on experimental days, using sterile milli-Q water (for pre-incubations of transfected HEK293T cells), arti cial cerebrospinal uid (aCSF (detailed composition below), for intra-mPFC injections in mice) or sterile saline (0.9 % NaCl, for intraperitoneal (IP) injections in mice). Additionally, the following drugs were used as indicated for each experiment: the sodium channel blocker tetrodotoxin (TTX, #4368-28-9, Sigma-Aldrich, USA), the sodium channel blocker lidocaine N-ethyl bromide (QX-314, #552233, Calbiochem, USA), the Ca V 1 blocker nifedipine (#N-7634, Sigma-Aldrich, USA), the Ca V 2.1 blocker ω-agatoxin IVA (#145017-83-0, Alomone Labs, Israel), the Ca V 2.2 blocker ω-conotoxin GVIA (#106375-28-4, Alomone Labs, Israel), nickel (II) chloride hexahydrate (NiCl 2 , #2000979900, Biopack Analytical Systems AS, Argentina), dopamine hydrochloride (#62-31-7, Sigma-Aldrich, USA), the D1R-like antagonist R(+)-SCH-23390 (#125941-87-9, Sigma-Aldrich, USA) and the D1R-like agonist (±)-SKF-38393 hydrochloride (#62717-42-4, Sigma-Aldrich, USA).

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.
