Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were treated with 10 μM rabeprazole (Rabe) or omeprazole (Ome) to inhibit PPs (Selleck, Shanghai, China). Cells were treated with 10 μM Cytochalasin D to inhibit phagocytosis (MedChemExpress, Shanghai, China). Cells were treated with 10 μM indomethacin (MedChemExpress) or chlorpromazine (Selleck) to inhibit caveolae‐ or clathrin‐mediated endocytosis, respectively. Macropinocytosis was inhibited by treatment cells with 10 μM LY294002 or amiloride (Selleck). Cells were treated with 10 μM KM91104 or 10 nM Baf‐A1, or 10 μM azathioprine (Selleck) to inhibit the activity of v‐ATPase or RAC1, respectively. Cells were treated with 10 μM Dynasore (MedChemExpress), CDC42‐IN‐1 (Selleck) or NAV‐2729 (MedChemExpress) to inhibit the activity of dynamin, CDC42 and ARF6, respectively. Cell cholesterol was extracted by treatment with 10 μM MeβCD (Aladdin). Equal pH gradients in cells were induced by 10 μM 2, 4‐DNP (Merck). Cells were treated with 10 μM H89 (Selleck) to inhibit PKA activation. In most experiments, cells were pretreated with the above reagents for 2 h, followed by subsequent experiments.

To elucidate the role of the endothelium, K+ channel, and PI3K/Akt/Rho-kinase pathways in GPS-mediated vasodilation, the aortic rings with intact endothelium were preincubated with nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor (100 μM L-NAME), cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor (100 μM indomethacin), and soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) inhibitor (100 μM methylene blue), respectively, for 30 min, while the aortic rings without endothelium were preincubated with different K+ channel blockers of tetraethylammonium chloride (TEA, 10 mM), 4-aminopyridine (4-AP, 1 mM), BaCl2 (1 mM), glibenclamide (0.01 mM), L-type Ca2+ channel inhibitor (100 μM verapamil), PI3K/Akt inhibitor (10 μM LY294002), and Rho-kinase inhibitor (10 μM Y27632) for 30 min (all inhibitors were obtained from MedChem Express, NJ, USA). After achieving a plateau of PE-induced contracted tension, GPS was added in a cumulative manner (20, 80, and 160 μΜ) for 20 min, and the concentration-response curves were recorded.

Neuron-Mesenchymal Stem Cell Co-Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For each individual experiment, a minimum of 20 mice were anesthetized and performed transcardial perfusion with cold standard, bubbled with 95% O2–5% CO2, artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) solution.50 (link) Neurons from vagus ganglia could be collected and placed in ice-cold Ca2+ and Mg2+-free Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution supplemented with penicillin–streptomycin. The culture medium consisted of 21.5 mls of Ham’s F-12 Nutrient Mix (GIBCO); 21.5 mls of Neurobasal A (GIBCO); 5mls Glutamine; 1 ml of B-27 Supplement (GIBCO); 1 ml of Penicillin-Streptomycin solution (Thermo). The ratio of MSCs to neurons was 10:1. Recombinant human IL-1β (100 ng/ml, R&D systems) and mouse IL-1β (100 ng/ml, R&D systems) were used to stimulate the PGE2 production of MSCs. Indomethacin (10 nM, MedChem Express) and MF63 (10 nM, MedChem Express) were used to inhibit PGE2 synthetase, PTGS2 and PTGES, respectively.

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.
