Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At 22 h after their initial surgery (Fig. 1), rats were anesthetized and the right femoral artery and vein were cannulated with PE-50 tubing, as previously described (Bartnik et al., 2007 (link); Bartnik-Olson et al., 2010 (link)). The scalp incision was re-opened, the skull was dried, and the dorsal surface of the skull including the craniotomy site was covered with dental acrylic (to prevent overheating and herniation of cortical tissue through the craniotomy during microwave irradiation). Bupivacaine (0.1–0.14 mg/kg, s.c.) was infiltrated into the femoral and cranial incision sites and animals were restrained on a cardboard plank immediately after removal of isoflurane anesthesia.
At 24 h post-injury awake, lightly restrained animals were given an intravenous infusion of [1,2 13C2] glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Andover, MA, USA) in sterile water (Fig. 1). The infusion protocol, per 350 g body weight, began with a bolus injection of 225 μmol followed by 150 μmol given in exponentially decreasing amounts over the next 8 min, until a final constant infusion rate of 16.67 μmol/min was reached and maintained for 1 h (Bartnik-Olson et al., 2010 (link)) (Fig. 1).

Tracing Glucose Flux through PPP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 1 × 106 BaF3/ITD or BaF3/ITD-R cells were cultured in a glucose-free RPMI-1640 medium (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA), supplemented with 11.1 mmol/L [1,2-13C2]-glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Tewksbury, MA, USA) and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) in 6-well plates for 24 h. Three biological replicates were prepared. Intracellular metabolites were extracted using a methanol/water/chloroform method as previously described [12 (link)]. The extraction, derivatization, and GC–MS analysis procedures were performed as described in above “Pentose phosphate flux analysis with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry” section. Glucose flux through the PPP was calculated as the extracellular glucose uptake flux multiplied by the ratio of (M + 1)/[(M + 1) + (M + 2)], where (M + 1) and (M + 2) are two isotopologues of pyruvate derived from [1,2-13C2]-glucose.

Stable isotopes used in these studies include [1,2-13C2]glucose, [U-13C6]glucose, [U-13C5]glutamine, and [U-13C16]palmitate all acquired from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories. Albumin, phenformin, palmitic acid, and BPTES were acquired from Sigma. Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) was acquired from Sigma.

Steady-State 13C Glucose Labeling of Cerebellar Granule Neurons

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cerebellar granule neurons (7×106 cells per well plated in 2-well Lab-Tek chambers) were incubated for 1 h at 37°C with 0.6 mL experimental buffer containing 9.6 mM [1,2-13C2]glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Andover, MA) rather than unlabeled glucose. The cells were further incubated 2 h 15 min at 37°C with 0.8 mL of fresh 1,2 13C glucose buffer (so 3 h 15 min total) to allow the glycolytic, pentose phosphate pathway, and TCA cycle metabolites to reach isotopic steady-state, as previously demonstrated for HepG2 cells (Hofmann et al., 2008 (link); Maier et al., 2008 (link)) and fibroblasts (Munger et al., 2008 (link)). The cells were washed once, then incubated 60 min, 37°C with 0.35 mL of the same buffer. Parallel controls were run in each experiment and included wells without cells, and cells incubated with unlabeled glucose. The labeling pattern of metabolically produced lactate exported during the last hour (from 3 h 15 min to 4 h 15 min of exposure to [13C]glucose) was determined using the supernatants following centrifugation of the samples for 2 min, 21,000 xg, 4°C. The supernatants were stored at −20°C until processed for LC-MS/MS.

Metabolic Profiling of Murine Cells

Freshly isolated cells from mice were incubated with RPMI-1640 containing 2% dialyzed FBS (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), 2.0 g/L glucose and cytokines for 16 hours, then replaced in pre-warmed labeling medium containing 2.0 g/L or 0.2 g/L 1,2-13C2-glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Andover, MA) with cytokines and incubated for 5 or 60 min at 37°C. Metabolites were extracted with an organic solvent (ice cold 90% 9:1 MeOH: CHCl3) and separated on a 1mm ×150mm HILIC column in a 35 min cycle. All analytes and internal standards were measured by ESI ionization on an Agilent 6520 QTOF mass spectrometer equipped with a 1260 LC unit (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA).

Isotopic Labeling of TCA Cycle Intermediates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the analysis of TCA-cycle intermediates, CSCs were cultured and labeled in the standard serum-free DMEM/F12 media containing 17.5 mM 13C6-glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories). For time course experiments, the secondary-generation mammospheres were cultured in serum-free DMEM/F12 medium for 2 days. The BCSCs were washed three times in medium without glucose, and then the cells were cultured for another 8 h in medium containing 17.5 mM 13C6-glucose. At the time of collection, the cells were washed three times with ice-cold PBS and extracted with 80% methanol on ice. Extracts were dried by centrifugation and stored at −80 °C until further processing. The intermediates were normalized according to internal standard solution containing [U-13C] fumarate, succinate-d4, and citrate-d4 at 1 mM each. For the analysis of lactate through glycolysis, BCSCs were cultured in the medium containing 1,2-13C2-glucose (Cambridge Isotope Laboratories). At the time of collection, the culture medium was centrifuged, transferred to a new Eppendorf tube, and stored at −80 °C until further processing.

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.
