Plasma Magnesium Concentration Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Plasma Mg concentration was measured by a colorimetric method using an Olympus Autoanalyzer. A plasma Mg concentration of 0.75 to 0.95 mmol/L (1.8 to 2.3 mg/dL) was used as the normal range for clinical diagnostic purposes [1 (link)]. Therefore, three groups were defined as follows: low (<0.75 mmol/L), normal (0.75–0.95 mmol/L), and high (>0.95 mmol/L). The plasma glucose, serum C-reactive protein (CRP), and serum creatinine concentrations were also measured at baseline to establish histories of diabetes, inflammatory disorders, and impaired kidney function.

Fasting Lipid Profile Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fasting blood samples were collected in the morning after at least 12 h of fasting for all participants. Blood samples were obtained from an antecubital vein and collected in Vacutainer tubes containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Values for fasting plasma glucose (FPG), TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, and other routine blood biochemical indexes were obtained using an autoanalyzer (Olympus, Kobe, Japan). According to the National Cholesterol Education Program-Third Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III) criteria, high TC was defined as TC ≥ 6.21 mmol/L (240 mg/dL); low HDL-C was defined as HDL-C < 1.03 mmol/L (40 mg/dL); high LDL-C was defined as LDL-C ≥ 4.16 mmol/L (160 mg/dL); and high TG was defined as ≥2.26 mmol/L (200 mg/dL) [14 (link)]. Dyslipidemia was defined as having at least one high LDL-C, high TC, low HDL-C, or high TG, as this method had been widely used in China [15 (link),16 (link)].

Kidney Oxidative Stress Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Kidneys were homogenized in ice-cold phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) to produce 10% homogenate. Tissues were homogenized in a motor-driven tissue homogenizer (IKA Ultra-Turrax T25 Basic; Labortechnic, Staufen, Germany) and sonicator (UW–2070 Bandelin Electronic, Germany) with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). Unbroken cells, nuclei and cell debris were sedimented by centrifugation at 10000g for 10 min at 4 °C. Protein levels in the homogenate were determined according to the method of Bradford et al. [18 (link)]. This tissue homogenate was used for to determination of TAS and TOS levels [19 (link),20 (link)]. The TAS levels of samples were measured spectrophotometrically at the 660 nm absorbance. The results were expressed as mmol Trolox Eq/mg protein. The color intensity is related to the total amount of oxidant (TOS) molecules in the samples. The results are expressed in terms of mM hydrogen peroxide equivalent per g liter (mmol H2O2 Equiv/L, mmol H2O2 Equiv/ mg protein). Determination of OSI, which is an indicative parameter of oxidative stress level and the ratio of TOS to TAS was calculated using the following formula [21 (link)]:
TAS and TOS were measured by the automated chemistry analyzer Beckman Coulter AU5800 (Japan). Serum BUN, uric acid and creatinine levels were determined using the Olympus AutoAnalyzer (Olympus Instruments, Tokyo, Japan) and results are expressed as mg/dl.

Plasma glucose concentrations were determined using a glucose analyzer (OneTouch® Ultra™, Lifescan, Inc., Milpitas, CA, USA) at the experimental end-point. Plasma total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) and triglyceride (TG) concentrations were determined by enzymatic colorimetry in an Olympus® auto-analyzer (Olympus America, Inc., NY, USA) resorting to commercial kits (OSR6516, OSR6587, and OSR61118, Olympus America, Inc., for TC, HDL-c and TG, respectively). Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels were calculated by the formula of Friedewald (LDL-c = TC − [HDL-c − 1/5 TG], if serum TG is 400 mgdL− 1 or less) [21 (link)].
C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in serum were analyzed with an immunoturbidimetric latex CRP assay, normal set (OSR6199, Olympus America, Inc.).

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.
