C2C12 myoblasts were seeded on culture plates in PM to achieve a 90% confluence, then the medium was changed to the basal differentiation medium (DM), supplemented with 20 µM epicatechin (EC, Sigma-Aldrich, Burlington, MA, USA), 10 µM genistein (GEN, Sigma-Aldrich), 10 µM luteolin (LUT, Sigma-Aldrich), 50 µM quercetin (QUE, Sigma-Aldrich), or 10 µM naringenin (NAR, Sigma-Aldrich) to induce differentiation. DM was DMEM containing 2% horse serum (HS; Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and 1% P/S. The differentiation lasted for 3 days, and the medium was changed every day.
PSCs were seeded on Matrigel-coated plates and cultured in PM for 2–3 days. When cells reached 90% confluence, differentiation was induced in DM supplemented with NAR at the indicated concentration for 5–7 days. In some experiments, ERβ antagonist PHTPP (MedChemExpress, Shanghai, China) at 10 μM was added to DM alone or in combination with NAR. The medium was changed every day.

A total of 4 × 104 cells were seeded into a 6-well plate and treated with genistin (5, 10, and 20 μM) and PHTPP (20 μM) (MedChemExpress, Monmouth Junction, NJ) for 5 days. The cells were collected, washed with PBS twice and permeabilized with ice-cold 70% ethanol at 4 °C until use. According to the manufacturer's protocol, the cells were washed twice and then treated with 100 μL trypsin inhibitor/RNase buffer using the CycleTEST™ PLUS DNA Reagent Kit (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). After that, the cells were incubated with 300 μL PI stain solution for 10 min. Finally, the ploidies of the samples were detected by a BD FACSCanto II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) and analyzed by FlowJo software.

Investigating Estrogen Receptor Regulation in POA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four weeks after treatment, 60 rats (n = 20 per group) were randomly selected and equally divided into ERα group and ERβ group. Five rats were randomly selected from the SHAM group and OVX + E group of ERα group, the antagonists of ERα (AZD9496, HY-12870, MedChemExpress) were injected into POA, and the agonists of ERα (Propyl pyrazole triol, HY-100689, MedChemExpress) were injected into POA of the five rats randomly selected from the OVX group. Five rats were randomly selected from SHAM group and OVX + E group of ERβ group to inject antagonists of ERβ (PHTPP, HY-103456, MedChemExpress) into POA, and five rats from OVX group were randomly selected to inject agonists of ERβ (Liquiritigenin, HY-N0377, MedChemExpress) into POA. Other rats were given the same volume of cosolvent (10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 45% saline, MedChemExpress) in POA. After 72 h of drug injection, the POA was removed according to the above method, and the mRNA and protein expression of Vglut2 and Vgat in POA were detected by Western blot and qRT-PCR, respectively. The details on the primary and secondary antibodies of vglut2 and vgat are shown in Supplementary Table 1.1, and the details on the primers of vglut2 and vgat are shown in Supplementary Table 1.2.

Cell viability was determined by MTT (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) assay. Cells were harvested using 0.25% trypsin and seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 3×104 cells/well at 37°C for 24 h. Then, cells were treated with calycosin (at concentrations of 0, 25, 50 or 100 µM) at 37°C for 24, 48 and 72 h, or with 100 µM calycosin in the presence or absence of the ERβ inhibitor PHTPP (50 µM; MedChemExpress) at 37°C for 48 h. In total, 20 µl MTT (5 mg/ml) was added to cells for 4 h at 37°C. Following incubation, DMSO (100 µl) was added to dissolve the formazan crystals and shaken at room temperature for 10 min. Subsequently, cell viability was assessed by measuring the absorbance at 570 nm using a microplate reader (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Proliferation rate (%) was calculated as follows: Optical density (OD) treatment group/OD control ×100%.

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.
