AREc32 cells were seeded in 6 multi-well plates (1 × 106 cells/well) for 24 h and treated with compounds 7a and 7b (30 µM) and culture medium (basal) for 24 h. Thereafter, cells were collected and lysed in ice-cold lysis buffer (10% glycerol, 137 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet P-40, 20 mM Tris HCl pH 7.5, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 20 mM NaF, 1 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 μg/mL leupeptin and 1 mM Na3VO4). Then proteins (30 μg) were resolved by gel electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide (10% and 12%) and transferred to Immobilion-P membranes (MilliporeSigma, Madrid, Spain). The membranes were incubated with anti-GCLc (1:1000, Ab41463 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti-HO-1 (1:1000, ab68477, Abcam) or anti-Actin (1:100,000, A3854, Merck, Madrid, Spain). Peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:10,000 and antirabbit: SC-2357, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) were employed to detect the proteins by enhanced chemiluminescence. Band intensities corresponding to immunoblot detection of protein samples were quantitated with Fiji software [27 (link)].

Frozen normal brain tissue (n=1) and patient samples, including astrocytoma (n=4) and oligodendroglioma (n=4), were sectioned and proceeded with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and IHC staining. Antibodies targeting p-AKT and GCLC were used. The slides were detected using diaminobenzidine and counterstain using hematoxylin. The slides were analyzed using a light microscope. For each sample, three Regions of Interest (ROI) were imaged and quantified using the color deconvolution function of ImageJ (RRID:SCR_003070). Mice brain tissues were fixed in formalin, embedded in paraffin, and sectioned. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sections were processed for H&E and IHC staining. Antibodies targeting ki67 (Abcam, ab15580), PCNA (Santa Cruz, sc-56), gH2A.X (Millipore, 05-636), GCLC (Abcam, ab41463), and NQO1 (Abcam, ab34173) were used. TUNEL assay was performed using DeadEnd Colorimetric TUNEL System (Promega) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Six ROIs for each group were imaged and quantified.

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.
