1-octen-3-ol (99%), NG-Nitro-D-arginine-methyl ester hydrochloride (D-NAME), NG-Nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME), Minocycline (MC), toluene (≥99.9%), 1-butanol (99%) and Modified Griess reagent were purchased from Sigma, USA while NADPH and Nitroblue tetrazolium were supplied by Calbiochem and Alfa Aesar, USA respectively. The exposure protocol for 1-octen-3-ol was performed as described in Inamdar et al20 using 0.5 ppm (volume: volume) of undiluted liquid 1-octen-3-ol for all exposure experiments while toluene and 1-butanol were exposed at the concentration of 2.8 ppm (volume: volume) as described in Inamdar et al18 . The NO synthase inhibitors NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME), D-NAME and Minocycline were added at 2 mM concentration in agar food (2% agar and 5% sucrose).

Kunming Mice in Electroacupuncture Study

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Forty healthy male Kunming mice weighing 20–22 g, average age of 3 months, were randomly allocated into EA, L-NAME, L-NAME EA, and control groups, 10 mice in each group. The animals were provided by the Animal Center of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The animals were fed as experimental animals and treated according to the accepted international criteria. The experimental procedure should be conducted according to the Animal Ethics Committee of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.
The animals were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 2% pentobarbital sodium (45 mg/kg−1, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA). Then the mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with physiological saline (15 mg kg−1) in EA and control groups. The mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 0.06% NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, hydrochloride (L-NAME) (15 mg kg−1, Sigma Company, USA) in L-NAME and L-NAME EA groups. In addition, EA was given at bilateral Zusanli (ST36) after injection 40 min in EA and L-NAME EA groups' mice.

Luteolin-induced Vascular Relaxation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Luteolin was acquired from Supersmart USA, LLC (Miami, FL, USA). Acetylcholine (ACh), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), indomethacin (non-selective COX inhibitor at 10 μM), N(G)-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME, non-selective NOS inhibitor at 100 μM), phenylephrine (Phe), tetraethylammonium (TEA, a non-selective K+ channel blocker at 10 mM), and were obtained from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA). Potassium chloride (KCl) was purchased from Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA).
Luteolin was solubilized in 100 % DMSO to make a 2 mM stock concentration. This stock solution was added at increasing volumes of 2.5, 10, 12.5, 50, 50, and 100 μL to the 5 mL vessel baths containing physiological saline solution (PSS), which resulted in generation of the Luteolin-induced vasorelaxation curves. For the control vascular function curves, the same volume of DMSO was added to separate vessel segments isolated from the normal pregnant rats.

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.
