Hippocampal slices were washed with buffer (15 mM HEPES (cat: H3375), 135 mM NaCl (cat: s3014), 5 mM KCl (cat: P5405), 1.8 mM CaCl2 (cat: C1016), and 0.8 mM MgCl2 (cat: 208337) supplemented with 0.5 mM glucose (Cisternas et al., 2014a (link)). Then, the slices were incubated for 0–90 min with 1–1.2 μCi 2-[1,2-3H(N)]-deoxy-D-glucose (cat: NET328250UC, PerkinElmer, United States) or 3H-2-deoxyglucose (cat: NET328A250UC, PerkinElmer, United States) at a final specific activity of 1–3 disintegrations/min/pmol (∼1 mCi/mmol). Glucose uptake was arrested by washing the cells with ice-cold PBS supplemented with 1 mM HgCl2 (cat: 203777, Sigma-Aldrich, United States). The incorporated radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation counting.

Hippocampal slices were prepared according to standard procedures. Briefly, we sectioned transverse slices (350 μm) from the dorsal hippocampus in cold artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF; 124 mM NaCl, 26 mM NaHCO3, 3 mM D- glucose, 2.69 mM KCl, 1.25 mM KH2PO4, 2.5 mM CaCL2, 1.3 mM MgSO4, and 2.60 mM NaHPO4) using a vibratome (LeicaVT 1000s). Slices were incubated in ACSF for 1 h at room temperature, then were washed with washing buffer (15 mM HEPES [#H3375, Sigma Millipore], 135 mM NaCl [#s3014, Sigma-Aldrich], 5 mM KCl [#P5405 Sigma-Aldrich], 1.8 mM CaCl2 (#C1016 Sigma-Aldrich), and 0.8 mM MgCl2 [#208337, Sigma-Aldrich]) supplemented with 0.5 mM glucose. Then, the slices were incubated for 30 min with 1-1.2 μCi 2-[1,2-3H(N)]-deoxy-D-glucose (#NET328250UC, PerkinElmer) at a final specific activity of 1-3 disintegrations/min/pmol (~1 mCi/mmol). Glucose uptake was arrested by washing the cells with ice-cold PBS supplemented with 1 mM HgCl2 (#203777, Sigma-Aldrich). The incorporated radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation counting (45 (link)).

Biochemical reagents, such as Cytochalasin B (C-6762), 2-deoxyglucose (D-8375), Dexamethasone (D2915), isobutymethylxanthine (I5879), Insulin (I0516), Rosiglitazone (R2408), BCS (Bovine Calf serum, 12133C), BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin, A9647) and Oil Red O (O0625), were all purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). 2-[3H] deoxyglucose was purchased from Perkin Elmer (NET328250UC). All lentiviral plasmids harboring shRNA sequences (mission shRNA) were obtained from Sigma. Antibodies against β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA; a5441), α-tubulin (clone B-5-1-2) and total PKN1 were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Phospho-IRS-1 (Tyr895), Phospho-PRK1 (Thr774)/PRK2 (Thr816), Phospho-Akt (Ser473) and Phospho-p70 S6 kinase (Thr 389) were purchased from cell signaling. Peroxidase conjugated goat anti-mouse (115-035-003) and goat anti-rabbit (111-035-003) antibodies were obtained from Jackson Immunoresearch (West Grove, PA, USA).

Quantification of Glucose Uptake in Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After activator/inhibitor treatments, cells were washed with incubation buffer (15 mM HEPES (cat: H3375), 135 mM NaCl (cat: s3014), 5 mM KCl (cat: P5405), 1.8 mM CaCl2 (cat: C1016), and 0.8 mM MgCl2 (cat: 208337), all the reagents were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, USA) supplemented with 0.5 mM glucose (Cisternas et al. 2014a). Cells were then incubated for 15 s with 1–1.2 μCi 2-deoxy-D-[1,2-(N)3H] (cat: NET328250UC, PerkinElmer, USA) or glucose ([2-3H]-DG (cat: NET328A250UC, PerkinElmer, USA) at a final specific activity of 1–3 disintegrations/min/pmol (~1 mCi/mmol). Glucose uptake was arrested by washing the cells with ice-cold PBS supplemented with 1 mM HgCl2 (cat: 203777, Sigma-Aldrich, USA). The incorporated radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation counting. In separate experiments, brain slices were incubated with different drugs for 1 h, then treated with [2-3H]-DG for 15 min and processed as described above. The kinetic parameters were determined using a single rectangular hyperbola of the form 𝑉max ∗ [glc]/(𝐾𝑚 + [glc]), adjusted to the data by nonlinear regression using SigmaPlot 12 (Barros et al. 2009 (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.
