Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (SD, n = 3, for the PK studies and in vitro studies) or the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM, n = 7 or 8, for the mouse air pouch model). The statistical significance of differences was assessed by using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett's test. These statistical analyses and the determination of half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values (using the four-parameter curve fit algorithm) were performed by using the Kaleida Graph 3.6 software (Synergy Software, Reading, PA). P-values of <0.05 were considered significant.

Fungal Growth Kinetics Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Growth curves were generated from experimental data by plotting ln (Dt/Do), where Dt is the average colony diameter at time t (d) and Do (cm) is the average colony diameter at the initial time. Data were fitted using the modified Gompertz model [40 (link)], from which biological parameters were estimated by nonlinear regression; in order to validate the results, the coefficient of determination (R2adj) was determined to each growth curve using KaleidaGraph 3.51 (Synergy Software, Reading, PA, USA): ln(DtDo)=A*exp{exp[(υmax*eA)(λt)+1]},
where A is the maximum mold growth achieved during the stationary phase, υmax is the maximum specific growth rate (cm/d), λ is the lag time (d), and e = 2.7182.
All parameters were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Minitab 17 software (Minitab Inc., State College, PA, USA). A p-value of 0.05 was used to decide significant differences among averages (Tukey’s test).

Microbial Resistance Profiling via Weibull Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Growth or inhibition curves were generated from experimental data by plotting log(N/No), where N was the average number of CFU/g at time (t) and No was the average number of CFU/g at the initial time point. Microbial growth or inactivation curves were fitted using the Weibull model (Eq. (1)) through nonlinear regression (KaleidaGraph 3.51, Synergy Software, Reading, PA, USA) logNNo=btn
* where b and n are the scale and shape parameters of the model, respectively.
The Weibull model corresponds to an upward concave survival curve when n > 1, a downward concave curve when n < 1, and a linear curve when n = 1. This results in two parameters: b, which indicates the rate of bacterial inactivation, and n, which indicates how the microorganisms survive or die.
The parameters n and b were used to calculate the frequency distribution of resistance. The mode of distribution represents the treatment time at which most of the population dies or is inactivated. The mean value represents the average inactivation time with its variation. Once the values of b and n were determined, the resistance frequency curves were plotted using the following equation (Eq. 2): dΦdt0=bntcn1exp(btcn)
* where tc is a measure of the resistance or sensitivity of the organism, and Φ is the fraction of organisms that divide at a given time [46 (link)].

Circular Dichroism Analysis of Nucleic Acids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Circular Dichroism (CD) experiments were conducted at 25°C using a Jasco J-810 spectropolarimeter with a thermo-electrically controlled cell holder. A quartz cell with a 1 cm path length was used in all CD studies. CD spectra were recorded as an average of three scans from 300 nm to 200 nm. Scanning experiments were carried out in 1.8 mL of 4.0 μM/duplex nucleic acid solutions in buffer without the presence of ligand. In CD titration experiments, small aliquots of concentrated ligand solutions were added to the 1.8 mL of 4.0 μM/duplex nucleic acid solutions in buffer and allowed to equilibrate for at least 5 minutes prior to scanning. The resulting scans were plotted for CD signal changes with respect to wavelength and Kaleidagraph 3.5 software (Synergy software) was used to process the data.

All UV spectra were obtained using a 12-cell holder Cary 1E UV-Vis spectrophotometer with a temperature controller attached. Quartz cells with 1 cm path length were used for all experiments. The DNA duplex melting was monitored at wavelength of 260 nm and the DNA samples were heated from 20.0°C to 98.0°C at a rate of 0.3°C/min. Buffer conditions were: 100 mM KCl, 10 mM Sodium Cacodylate (SC), 0.5 mM EDTA, and pH 5.5, with [DNA] = 1 μM/duplex for the salt-dependent studies, and 100 mM KCl, 10 mM SC, 0.5 mM EDTA, and pH 6.8 for the thermal melt comparisons with Poly(dA)·Poly(dT). All resulting temperature-absorbance profiles were plotted using Kaleidagraph 3.5 software (Synergy software). For Tm determination, first derivative analysis was used.

Steroid Receptor-Mediated Signaling Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Unless otherwise noted, all experiments were performed in triplicate multiple times. KaleidaGraph 3.5 (Synergy Software, Reading, PA) was used to determine a least-squares best fit of the experimental data to the theoretical dose-response curve, which is given by the equation derived from Michaelis-Menten kinetics of y = [free steroid]/[free steroid + dissociation constant (Kd)] (where the concentration of total steroid is approximately equal to the concentration of free steroid because only a small portion is bound), to yield a single EC50 value. The values of n independent experiments were then analyzed for statistical significance by the two-tailed Student’s t-test using InStat 2.03 for Macintosh (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA). The Mann-Whitney test or the Alternate Welch t-test is used when the difference between the S.D. values of two populations is statistically significant. The Bayesian Information Criterion was used to determine the better of two types of fits for a particular graph (e.g., linear vs. quadratic).

HEK-293 FT cells were transfected with GluA1 iQ alone, or in combinations with IgSF11 at equal amounts, via calcium-phosphate method. Two days after transfection, to measure deactivation, outside-out membrane patches were excised and positioned in front of an ultrafast perfusion system mounted on a piezoelectric translator (Physic instruments). To determine the desensitization time constant, 10 mM glutamate was applied for 1 sec. Recovery from desensitization was measured using a paired pulse protocol and an increasing interpulse interval. Data analysis was performed using axograph 4.6 (Molecular devices) and graphed using Kaleidagraph 3.5 (Synergy software) and Excel 2004 (Microsoft). Statistical analysis was done using Instat 2.03 (Synergy software).
