Carfilzomib

Manufactured by Apexbio
Sourced in United States

Carfilzomib is a proteasome inhibitor, a type of laboratory equipment used for protein analysis and drug discovery research. It functions by selectively and irreversibly binding to and inhibiting the proteasome, a large protein complex involved in the degradation of unwanted or damaged proteins within cells. Carfilzomib is commonly used in scientific research to study the role of the proteasome in cellular processes and to investigate the effects of proteasome inhibition on various biological systems.

MG132, Bortezomib/Velcade, NAE inhibitor MLN 4924, AAA-ATPase p97 inhibitor DBeQ were purchased from LifeSensors (Malvern, PA). Carfilzomib were obtained from APExBIO technology. All inhibitors were dissolved in DMSO. The inhibitors were added to the muscle cells after 4 days of culture. To reverse the drug effects, the treated cells were washed, trypsinized, spun down, rinsed with control medium, and then replated onto gelatin-coated dishes (hiPSC) or collagen-coated dishes (chick) in control medium. The control and different previously UPS inhibitor treated cardiomyocytes were allowed spread in culture over two days for recovery, and then processed for immunostainings to detect reversibility.

Small interference double‐strand RNA (siRNA pool, M‐006022‐01‐0005) against the PSMB8 gene and nontarget siRNA as control were purchased from Dharmacon. The cell viability assay was performed by seeding 1,000 cells in 96‐well plates with complete media and detected at 0, 24, 48, 72 and 128 hr. After adding 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐(4‐sulfophenyl)‐2 H‐tetrazolium reagents (Promega) for 1 hr, each well was measured the absorbance using OD 490 nm in MultiSKAN Ex ELISA reader (Thermo Scientific Pierce). The chemosensitivity assay was performed by seeding 1,000 cells in 96‐well plates with complete media and detected in adding 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 nM Carfilzomib or Bortezomib (Apexbio).

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.
