Antiglycation Activity Evaluation of Iridoids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phosphate buffer (193 mM KH2PO4, 73.4 mM Na2CO3, pH 7.2) was purchased from 3M (Saint Paul, MN). Deacetylasperulosidic acid was purchased from Chengdu Biopurify Pharmaceuticals (Chengdu, China). Loganic acid was purchased from ChromaDex (Irvine, California). Aminoguanidine HCl, bovine serum albumin (BSA), fructose, and glucose monohydrate were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO).
To measure antiglycation activity, a previously described Maillard reaction-based method was followed, but with some modification [34 (link)]. Aminoguanidine, the positive control, and the iridoids were evaluated at concentrations ranging from 1.25 mM to 5 mM. This was done by incubating the control and samples for four days, at 58 ± 2°C, in 1 mL Phosphate buffered BSA solution (10 mg/mL) containing 25 mM fructose, 25 mM glucose, and 0.02% sodium azide. Reference blanks were also prepared. Many AGEs contain fluorophores which are useful for detection [14 (link)]. Following incubation, fluorescence intensities of the blanks, positive control, and samples were measured with a microplate reader, at 360 nm excitation and 460 nm emission. Samples were evaluated in triplicate. For each sample, the minimum concentration that inhibited 50% of glycation (IC50) was calculated from the results.

Phosphatidylcholine from egg yolk (PC) (AppliChem, Darmstadt, Germany), tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane hydrochloride (Tris-HCl buffer) (Sigma–Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), sodium phosphate buffer (PBS) (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), pyrene (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), eosin Y (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), glucose oxidase (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), catalase (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), bovine serum albumin fraction V (BSA) (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), aminoguanidine-HCl (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), D,L-glyceraldehyde (Sigma–Aldrich, Buchs, Switzerland), D-glucose (Sigma–Aldrich, USA), and NADPH (Applichem, Darmstadt, Germany) were used.
TNIC-ThS (Na2[Fe2(S2O3)2(NO)4] 4H2O) was synthesized according to the procedure described in the work [22 (link)].

Systemic and Peripheral Methylglyoxal Administration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For systemic methylglyoxal (MGO) administration, MGO (Sigma; 40% by weight in water) was diluted in sterile saline to a working concentration of 28.8 ng/μl (pH 7.0). Mice received a single intraperitoneal (I.P.) injection of either sterile saline or 720 ng methylglyoxal in saline [6 (link)].
For peripheral MGO administration, MGO was diluted in sterile saline to a working concentration of 1.5 μg/μl (pH 7.0). In in vitro MGO-scavenging experiments, equimolar concentrations of acetoacetate, β-hydroxybutyrate, or aminoguanidine HCl (Sigma; St. Louis) were incubated with MGO for 18 hours at 4°C. Mice then received 30 μg of the resultant mixture by 20 μl intraplantar injection [18 (link)].

L-Carnosine, aminoguanidine HCl, sodium azide, nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT), 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), copper (II) chloride, sorbitol, ammonium acetate, α-crystallin from bovine eye lens, and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, UK. Ascorbic acid, glutathione, and 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) were purchased from TCI, Toshima, Tokyo, Japan. 6-Hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox) was purchased from Acros Organics, New Jersey, USA. 2,9-Dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (neocuproine) and 5,5′-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (Ellman's reagent) were purchased from Alfa Aesar, Heysham, UK. All other chemicals and reagents were of analytical grade and used as received.

Cells were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and the pellets lysed in lysis buffer (1% NP-40, 100 mM NaCl, 50 mM HEPES pH 7.2). Following centrifugation (10 min, 16,000 × g, 4 °C), supernatants were supplemented with 50 µM TAMRA-azide (Jena Bioscience, CLK-FA008-1), 5 mM sodium ascorbate (Sigma–Aldrich, A7631), 5 mM aminoguanidine-HCl (Sigma–Aldrich, 396494), 0.1 mM CuSO4 (Sigma–Aldrich, PHR1477), and 0.5 mM THPTA (Jena Bioscience, CLK-1010-25), with gentle vortexing. The reaction mixtures were incubated at RT for 30 min, light protected. For gel electrophoresis, 4× LDS-sample buffer was added. Samples were resolved by SDS-PAGE. In-gel fluorescence was recorded using a ChemiDoc MP Imaging System (Bio-Rad Laboratories; Hercules, CA, USA) equipped with 695/55 (Cy5, for visualization of the Precision Plus Protein Standard, Bio-Rad) and 605/50 (Cy3/TAMRA) filters and coupled to Image Lab v 5.0 analysis software (Bio-Rad).

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.
