Inhibition of NF-κB and Ghrelin Signaling in Paclitaxel-Treated Rats

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Paclitaxel (LKT Laboratories inc, St. Paul, MN, USA) was dissolved in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (10%DMSO). Ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC; Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA), an NFκB inhibitor, and [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6 (Tocris, Bristol, United Kingdom), a ghrelin receptor antagonist, were dissolved in saline. RKT (Tsumura, Tokyo, Japan) was dissolved in distilled water (DW).
Paclitaxel was injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) at a dose of 2 or 5 mg/kg. PDTC was injected intrathecally (i.t.) at a dose of 100 ng/5μL. [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6 was injected i.p. at a dose of 10 mg/kg. RKT was administered orally (p.o.) at a dose of 0.1, 0.3, or 1 g/kg. Control animals were injected with the respective vehicle for each drug.

Synergistic Chemo-Statin Combination Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The chemotherapeutic agents used included doxorubicin (Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), paclitaxel (LKT Laboratories Inc.. St. Paul, MN, USA) and topotecan (Toronto Research Chemicals, Toronto, Canada). The statin drugs used in the research include atorvastatin (Toronto Research Chemicals Inc., Toronto, Canada), fluvastatin (Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX, USA), lovastatin (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), mevastatin (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), pravastatin (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and simvastatin (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Mevalonolactone (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) was dissolved in RPMI-1640 medium (Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and titrated with NaOH to a pH of 7.8 to form mevalonate. doxorubicin, fluvastatin and pravastatin were dissolved in distilled water. paclitaxel, topotecan, and atorvastatin were dissolved in methanol. lovastatin, mevastatin and simvastatin were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The chemotherapeutic agents, statins, and mevalonate were aliquoted and stored at − 80 °C.

Endometrial Cancer Cell Lines: Authentication and Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AN3CA, KLE, Hec1A, Hec1B, MFE280, and MFE296 were obtained as a gift from the lab of Jie Wu Ph.D., University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma city, OK, 73104, USA. Ishikawa was purchased from Sigma (St Louis, MO, USA). AN3CA, KLE, Hec1B, MFE280, and MFE296 were authenticated by short tandem repeat (STR) profiling at the University of Arizona Genetics Core in 2017 and passaged less than 20 times since authentication. AN3CA, Ishikawa, and Hec-1B were grown in EMEM, MFE280, and MFE296 were grown in DMEM, KLE was grown in DMEM/F12, and Hec1A was grown in McCoy’s 5a. All media was supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Sulforaphane (#S8044; Cas No. 4478-93-7) and paclitaxel (#P0093; Cas No. 33069-62-4) were obtained from LKT laboratories (St. Paul, MN, USA). PI3K inhibitor, LY294002 (#9901), mTOR inhibitor, Torin2 (#14385), and ERK inhibitor U0126 (#9903) were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA). In all of the experiments, cells treated with vehicle only were considered as the control and all treatments were given in medium supplemented with 10% FBS.

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.
