Hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine (HSPC) was purchased from Lipoid (Newark, USA). Cholesterol was from Nippon Fine Chemical (Osaka, Japan). Deuterated cholesterol was from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories (Tewksbury, USA). 1,2-dimyristoyl-rac-glycero-3-methoxypolyethylene glycol-2000 (DMG-PEG2000) was from A.V.T. (Shanghai, China). (6Z,9Z,28Z,31Z)-heptatriaconta-6,9,28,31-tetraeb-19-Y13-(4-methylpiperazin-1-Y1) propanoate (H3) was synthesized by BirdoTech (Shanghai, China) (6 ). EZ Cap™ firefly luciferase mRNA was provided by ApexBio (Houston, USA). 1,1-dioctadecyl-3,3,3,3-tetramethylindotricarbocyaine iodide (DiR) and luciferin were obtained from Yeasen (Shanghai, China). Water used through experiments was purified using a Millipore Milli-Q purification system (Bedford, MA). All other reagents were of chemical purity or analytical grade from Sangon Biotech (Shanghai, China).
For the synthesis of OVAL mRNA used in the in-situ hybridization (ISH) study, we used the T7 high yield RNA transcription kit from Novoprotein (Shanghai, China) and performed in vitro transcription (IVT) of a linearized DNA template from plasmid pCl-neo-sOVA (Addgene, Watertown, USA). The RNA was capped and attached poly(A) tails using enzymes included in the kit (Novoprotein, Shanghai, China).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
FLuc mRNA‐encapsulated 4N4T‐LNPs were prepared and examined. Male BALB/c mice were intramuscularly injected with 20 µg of 4N4T‐FLuc mRNA. After 8 h, the mice were intraperitoneally injected with 3 mg of luciferin (YEASEN) dissolved in 200 µL of PBS. Then, the mice were anesthetized using isoflurane (RWD) and imaged in an In Vivo Imaging System (IVIS) Spectrum instrument (PerkinElmer) 15 min after injection of substrate. To plot the curve of luciferase activity over time, the mice were injected with the substrate and imaged at different time points. The animal experiments in this study have been approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of West China Hospital, Sichuan University.

Evaluating Anti-Tumor CAR-T Cells in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were maintained under pathogen-free conditions, and food and water were provided ad libitum. All mice used were females aged 5–6 weeks. To evaluate the antitumor activity of PD-1KD BCMA-targeted CAR-T cells in vivo, female mice were inoculated with 5×106 PD-L1/BCMA+K562 cells intravenously. Approximately 7 days later, 1×107 CAR-T cells or a PBS control were infused intravenously, and animal survival was monitored over time. The mice were anesthetized and injected with 200 µL of luciferin i.p. (15 mg/mL, YEASEN, 40 901ES). Bioluminescence images were acquired 10 min after luciferin injection and analyzed using the IVIS Imaging System and software (PerkinElmer).

Visualizing Protein-Protein Interactions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The CDS of GW6a, CLG1, GW2, and HDR3 were individually cloned into pCAMBIA1300-nLUC or pCAMBIA1300-cLUC to express GW6a-nLUC, CLG1-cLUC, GW2-cLUC, and HDR3-cLUC. The CDS of CLG1, GW2, and HDR3 were cloned into pSuper1300-GFP, respectively, to express CLG1-GFP, GW2-GFP, and HDR3-GFP in tobacco leaves. Each construct was transformed into the Agrobacterium EHA105 cells and co-infiltrated into tobacco leaves as indicated. Tobacco leaves were submerged in a solution with luciferin (YEASEN) for 48 h to capture LUC signals using a CCD imaging system (Tanon).

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.
