Dox and IL-12 Gene Therapy Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The mice were treated with a combination regimen of Dox plus an IL-12 gene construct. The IL-12 gene construct was obtained from Valentis, Inc. (Vilnius, Lithuania); the backbone of this construct was described in a previous publication [44 (link)]. The control plasmid DNA consisted of the same construct with the IL-12 gene deleted. Plasmid DNA was prepared by using the endotoxin-free Mega preparation kit from Qiagen, Inc. (Valencia, CA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Doxorubicin (Bedford Laboratories, Bedford, OH) was purchased from the pharmacy at the Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine.

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.
