Cortisol Quantification in Embryos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Embryos (n=30) were collected at 30hpf and homogenized in 100μL of ultrapure water by electric pestle. Ethyl acetate (500μl; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis MO) was added to the lysate, centrifuged, and the insoluble fraction discarded. The soluble fraction was decanted, dehydrated, and re-suspended in 110μl EIA buffer; total cortisol was measured using a Cortisol EIA kit (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor MI) according to manufacturer's instructions.

Quantifying Cortisol Levels in Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples frozen in 800 μL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) were thawed, and homogenized on ice for 90 s with a Vibra-Cell VCX 130 (Sonics and Materials Inc.) ultrasonic processor. The cortisol was extracted from 640 μL of the resulting homogenate three times using 3 mL of ethyl ether (Fisher Scientific), which was then evaporated off by placing the test tubes in a 42 °C water bath for approximately 12–18 h. The samples were then reconstituted with 500 μL of PBS at 4 °C for approximately 30 h, vortexing occasionally. The cortisol in each sample was quantified using a Cortisol EIA Kit (Cayman Chemical). The cortisol levels were normalized to the amount of protein in each of the samples, which was determined by following the microplate procedure of a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific) using 25 μL aliquots of either bovine serum albumin standards or sample homogenate for the unknowns. The cortisol extraction efficiency was calculated to be approximately ~70 %, which is similar to previously published results (Alsop & Vijayan, 2008 ). The calculated extraction efficiency was used to correct all recorded cortisol values to the actual amount of cortisol per sample.

Aldosterone and Cortisol Response in H295R Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
H295R cells were plated to 60% confluence in 24‐multiwell plates. Thereafter, they were exposed to either 100 mg·dL−1d‐glu, 450 mg·dL−1d‐glu, 100 mg·dL−1d‐glu plus 100 nmol·L−1 AII (for aldosterone), or 450 mg·dL−1d‐glu plus 100 nmol·L−1 AII (for aldosterone) for 72 h. The aldosterone and cortisol concentrations of the media were thereafter measured by Aldosterone EIA Kit and Cortisol EIA Kit (Cayman Chemical), respectively, after their extraction with dichloromethane according to the manufacturer's instructions. The obtained data were normalized by the protein concentrations measured by Protein Assay Kit (Bio‐Rad).

Cortisol Measurement in Serum Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A plastic syringe was used to collect blood from the caudal vasculature of the SW and FW groups (day 1, day 7 and day 30, n = 8 in each group) in Eppendorf tubes. Centrifugation at 8000× g for 5 min at 4 °C yielded serum that was then stored in a freezer until further use. The cortisol EIA kit (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) was used to measure cortisol levels. Three milliliters of diethyl ether was used to extract the serum samples. The supernatant was maintained at 40 °C in a water bath for evaporation of ether after extraction and then stored at a freezer until further analysis. Then, cortisol extracts were re-suspended in PBS buffer. We established a parallelism between the standard curve and a serial dilution of the extracted solution. The cortisol concentrations (ng/mL) in the blood could then be calculated.

Blood was collected from each mouse in the evening, and the plasma corticosterone level was measured using a Cortisol EIA kit (Cayman Chemical Company, Ann Arbor, MI, USA). Skin samples were cut into small pieces, sonicated in 1% triton PBS, centrifuged for 20 min, and the supernatants were collected for analysis.

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.
