Human IL-1β and human TNF were purchased from PeproTech (Rocky Hill, NJ, USA) and dissolved in water. Forskolin was purchased from Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, UK) and dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/water (final DMSO dilution 1:200). Β-Endorphin, Nociceptin and Dynorphin A were purchased from Cayman Chemical (Ann Arbor, MI, USA) and dissolved in water. Pronase E was obtained from Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany), and collagenase P from Roche Diagnostics GmbH (Mannheim, Germany). The chondrocyte culture medium contains Chondrocyte Basal Medium + 10% Chondrocyte Growth Medium SupplementMix (both from PromoCell GmbH, Heidelberg, Germany) + 1% penicillin/streptomycin solution (Life Technologies Europe BV, NN Bleiswijk, The Netherlands). For all stimulation experiments, stock solutions of cytokines, Forskolin and opioid neuropeptides were diluted to the final concentration in chondrocyte culture medium.

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.
