Epidermal Barrier Disruption in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All procedures were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis, Nice, France. SLC3A2 (CD98hc) conditional null mice, SLC3A2 fl/fl (Fe ´ral et al., 2007) were crossed with constitutively active FSP1Cre transgenic mice (The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME). All in vivo and ex vivo experiments, FSP1Cre, SLC3A2 fl/fl mice and age-matched SLC3A2 fl/fl (WT) littermate controls were used. Mouse line characterization is described in Supplementary Figure S1 and in the Supplementary Materials and Methods. For tape stripping, WT or KO young adult back skin was clipped and depilated using depilatory cream. Adhesive tape was applied and removed several times on the back skin of each mouse tested to remove the stratum corneum. Mice were sacrificed and back skin was collected and processed 7 days after tape stripping. Thickness of the epidermis was quantified using Image J software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD). For 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate treatment, WT or KO young adult back skin was clipped and treated three times with 17 nmol 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (Sigma, St Louis, MO) for 1 week. Mice were sacrificed and back skin was collected and processed 1 hour after the last treatment.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1 was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection. THP-1 cells were maintained in RPMI-1640 growth medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% P/S at 37 °C under 5% CO2. Differentiation of THP-1 cells was induced by treatment with 10 ng ml−1 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (Sigma) in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% P/S for 72 h. After 72 h of differentiation, the cells were used for the experiments. Before the incubations were performed, cells were kept in RPMI-1640 media containing 0.2% FAF-BSA overnight, and during the experiment, in RPMI-1640 media containing 2% FAF-BSA. The cells were then treated with RPMI-1640 media containing 2% FAF-BSA and 500 μM of BSA-complexed fatty acid for 24 h.

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.
