Chronic Intracerebroventricular SCD Inhibitor Infusion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For ICV infusions of SCDi or vehicle, mice were locally injected with buprivacaine (Hospira) and operated under isoflurane anesthesia (Baxter). Brain cannulae attached to Alzet osmotic pumps were stereotaxically implanted at 0.0 mm antero-posterior and 0.9 mm lateral to Bregma and the pumps placed under the back skin according to manufacturer’s instructions. The 28-day Alzet osmotic pumps used in these experiments (0.11 μl/h infusion rate, model 1004; Durect) were primed for 48 h and begin pumping immediately when implanted. Abcam or Cayman SCD inhibitors were dissolved in DMSO (Sigma-Aldrich) and infused at a final concentration of 80 µM in sterile aCSF (148 mM NaCl, 3 mM KCl, 1.7 mM MgCl2, 1.4 mM CaCl2, 1.5 mM Na2PO4, 0.1 mM NaH2PO4). Vehicle pumps contained the same volumes as the SCDi pumps (0.8% DMSO/aCSF).

Adult male C57BL/6J mice weighing 30 gm were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME) and acclimatized for a week with free access to food and water. Four groups of mice were studied after acclimatization; 1) control, mice kept on tap water; (2 (link)) BSO, provided with 10 mmol/L BSO in drinking water; (3 (link)) BSO+ML385, mice intraperitoneally implanted with mini-osmotic pumps (Model 1004, Durect Corporation, Cupertino, CA) to dispense ML385 (10 mg/kg bodyweight/day) and supplemented with BSO and (4 (link)) ML385, implanted with ML385 filled mini-osmotic pumps. Bodyweight of mice was recorded at the start and completion of the 8-week treatment.
Osmotic pump implantation was performed as detailed by Chang et al. (21 (link)). Briefly, anesthesia was induced by 3% isoflurane and maintained by 1.5% isoflurane throughout the surgical procedure using (SomnoSuite, Kent Scientific Corp, Torrington, CT, USA) anesthesia machine. A midline incision was made in the lower abdomen and the drug-filled osmotic pump was inserted, delivery portal first, in the peritoneal cavity.
A day before sacrifice, urine samples were collected for 24 hours by keeping the mice in standard metabolic cages. All experiments were performed in compliance with Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee and NIH guidelines.

Angiotensin II-Induced Aortic Aneurysm

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To induce AA formation, mice of 14 weeks or 20 weeks were selected to be surgically implanted with ALZET osmotic mini-pumps (Model 1004, Durect Corporation, Cupertino, CA, USA) to infuse angiotensin II (Sigma-Aldrich) (1.44 mg/kg/d or 2.16 mg/kg/d) for 28 days, as described previously [14 (link)]. In our study, all experiments were conducted using male mice. Controls were age-matched littermates. Four weeks after infusion, mice were euthanized. Aortas were harvested, cleaned, and imaged. Thoracic and abdominal aortas were histochemically stained and evaluated.

For ICV infusions of SCDi or vehicle, mice were locally injected with buprivacaine (Hospira) and operated under isoflurane anesthesia (Baxter). Brain cannulae attached to Alzet osmotic pumps were stereotaxically implanted at 0.0 mm antero-posterior and 0.9 mm lateral to Bregma and the pumps placed under the back skin according to manufacturer's instructions. The 28-day Alzet osmotic pumps used in these experiments (0.11 μl/h infusion rate, model 1004; Durect) were primed for 48 h and began pumping immediately when implanted. The SCD inhibitor was dissolved in DMSO (Sigma-Aldrich) and infused at a final concentration of 80 µM in sterile aCSF (148 mM NaCl, 3 mM KCl, 1.7 mM MgCl2, 1.4 mM CaCl2, 1.5 mM Na2PO4, 0.1 mM NaH2PO4). Vehicle pumps contained the same volumes as the SCDi pumps (0.8% DMSO/aCSF).

Evaluating 12,13-EpOMEs in Colon Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C57BL/6 male mice (age = 6 weeks) were subcutaneously implanted with osmotic mini-pumps (Durect, model 1004), which contained vehicle (a 1:1 vol/vol mixed solution of DMSO and PEG 400) or 12,13-EpOMEs (dose = 2 mg/kg/day). After one week of mini-pump implantation, 4 × 105 MC38 colon cancer cells (purchased from Kerafast, catalog number ENH204, cell line authentication and mycoplasma testing have been verified by company) in 100 μL PBS were subcutaneously injected into each mouse to initiate primary tumor growth. Tumor size was measured using caliper, at the end of the experiment, the tumors were dissected, weighed and subjected to biochemical analysis.

Implantation of an infusion cannula into the cerebral ventricles and an osmotic pump were performed on mice according to our previously reported method.18 Briefly, the mice were anesthetized with 1.5% to 2% isoflurane through a face mask, and stainless steel cannulas (ALZET Brain Infusion Kit3, Durect Co, Cupertino, CA) were implanted in the right lateral ventricle, placed 1.0 mm lateral and 0.5 mm posterior from the bregma. The cannulas were fixed on the skull, and catheters were attached to extension tubes and linked to the ALZET osmotic pumps (Model 1004, Durect Co, Cupertino, CA), which were installed in subcutaneous pockets on the lateral backs of the mice.

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.
