Antipsychotic Drugs in Mouse EAE Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Female C57BL/6 mice were purchased from the Malaghan Institute (Wellington, New Zealand) and used between 8 and 12 weeks of age. Food and water were available ad libitum, and all experimental procedures were approved by the VUW Animal Ethics Committee (approval 2008-R12 and 2014-R23). Clozapine, risperidone, and quetiapine were kindly supplied by Douglas Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (Auckland, New Zealand) and olanzapine by Eli Lilly and Company (NZ) Ltd. (Auckland, New Zealand). Clozapine, risperidone, and quetiapine were dissolved in 0.1 M acetic acid at a concentration of 6 mg/mL before dilution in drinking water to deliver the doses indicated in the figure text to healthy mice or mice with EAE. olanzapine, due to its insolubility, was mixed with ground feed and reformed into pellets to deliver 3 mg/kg/day. Mice treated with glatiramer acetate (GA; Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Petach Tikva, Israel) received 100 and 500 µg/mouse in the MOG/CFA emulsion on day 0 as described.15 (link) Daily water or food consumption was recorded to ensure correct dosing, and all treatments were maintained until euthanasia.

Olanzapine for Neuropathic Pain Relief

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In the first stage of the study, groups of rats were injected intraperitoneally with Olanzapine (10 mg/kg) or normal saline (10 ml/kg) to investigate the pre-treatment effect of the drug in preventing allodynia.
Twenty-two rats were divided into 3 groups: a sham group (n = 6), a normal saline group (n = 8), and the Olanzapine group (n = 8). The Olanzapine group rats were injected intraperitoneally with 10 mg/kg Olanzapine 1 h before the surgery. Olanzapine (Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, IN) was dissolved in normal saline (1 mg/ml). The sham and normal saline group rats were injected intraperitoneally with normal saline (10 ml/kg) 1 h before the surgery. The dosage of Olanzapine used in the present study was based on a previous report, in which an injection of 10 mg/kg showed the maximum antinociceptive effect in the mouse tail-flick assay [9 (link)]. Mechanical allodynia was measured before and 7 days after the surgery. Each animal was sacrificed for Iba-1 immunohistochemical analysis after the last behavioural study.

TAK‐063 was synthesized by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. Haloperidol was purchased from Sigma‐Aldrich Co. LLC. (St. Louis, MO). Olanzapine was extracted from Zyprexa® (Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, IN) at KNC Laboratories Co. Ltd. (Kobe, Japan) or purchased from AK Scientific Inc. (Union City, CA). Aripiprazole was purchased from AK Scientific Inc. TAK‐063 and Haloperidol were suspended in 0.5% (w/v) methylcellulose in distilled water and administered orally (p.o.). Olanzapine was dissolved in 1.5% (v/v) lactic acid. The pH of this solution was then adjusted to neutral using 1 mol L−1 NaOH and administered orally. Aripiprazole was suspended in a 1% (v/v) solution of Tween 80 in distilled water and administered orally. Methamphetamine hydrochloride (METH, Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan) and (+)‐MK‐801 hydrogen maleate (MK‐801, Sigma‐Aldrich) were dissolved in saline and administered subcutaneously (s.c.). All compounds were dosed at 20 and 2 mL/kg body weight in mice and rats, respectively.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Olanzapine (brand name: Zyprexa) was purchased from Eli Lilly, United States. Metformin hydrochloride was obtained from Hunan Xiangya Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Changsha, China. Olanzapine was dissolved in 0.9% saline solution and maintained in one gavage administration (4 mg/kg/day) every day for 8 weeks. Olanzapine (4 mg/kg/day, oral) and metformin hydrochloride (150 mg/kg/day, oral) were prepared as previously (Matsui et al., 2010 (link); Savoy et al., 2010 (link)). The vehicle solution for metformin was 0.9% saline solution. All the drugs were prepared freshly prior to usage and administered orally (gastric gavage) between 9:00 and 14:00 h every day.

Chronic Antipsychotic Effects on Neural Network Development

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To model the chronic administration of antipsychotics in patients, 100 nM olanzapine (Eli Lilly and Co) and 100 nM haloperidol (Janssen) were added on day 3, 11 and 19 of cultivation, dissolved in minimal Eagle’s medium (MEM). At these time points, half of the cultivation medium was replaced with fresh medium containing the double concentration of the drug. In the control condition, an equal volume of pure MEM was added. The continuous replenishment of the drug pool aimed to compensate for the activity dependent usage47 (link) and allowed us to examine their effects during the early, premature and mature stages of neural network development in our setup25 (link), 50 , 51 (link). The final concentrations of drugs were selected on the basis of the target concentration range of antipsychotics in patients’ blood plasma29 (link), the target receptor affinity, and preliminary survival tests (see Supplementary Fig. S1d). To reveal the contribution of GABAergic signaling, 6 µM bicuculline methiodide (Sigma-Aldrich, #14343) was bath applied for 30 minutes prior to measurement.

Randomization lists, stratified by site and subtype, were generated by a computer program utilizing a random number generator seeded by time of day. Randomization assignments were kept by the pharmacy at each site. All clinical staff involved in the care of the patients, as well as study coordinators and statisticians, remained blind to medication assignment during the study. Olanzapine (2.5 mg) and matching placebo pills were provided gratis by Eli Lilly and Company.

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.
