Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For hypoxia experiments in LN229 cells, CoCl2 was used to mimic hypoxia conditions [27 (link)]. The cells were plated 2 days prior to the initiation of treatment, and the CoCl2 stock solution (100X in water) was added to the culture medium. At 16 h after treatment with CoCl2, the cell samples were collected. For hypoxia experiments for Hela cells, the cells were plated 1 day prior to the initiation of treatment. Exposure of cells to hypoxia was carried out in the PROOX C-Chamber with oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels modulated by the PROOX Model C21 Controller (BioSpherix, Lacona, NY, USA). The cells were exposed to 4% O2 for 10 h (moderate hypoxia) or exposed to six cycles of 1% O2 for 1 h followed by normoxia for 10 min, a combined total of 7 h of exposure (intermittent hypoxia). M4N stock solution was made in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The final concentration of DMSO in the culture medium was 1.0%. Deferoxamine (DFO; Millipore Sigma) was added to the cultures as a 100X stock prepared in water (15 mM final concentration).

Three or more independent experiments were performed for all experiments. Animals and cell cultures for each group were randomized with the website www.randomization.com. Treatment, data collection, and data analyses were blinded by using different investigators or by masking sample labels.
For in vitro experiments, we tested different dosages of Hemin (0, 10, 50, or 100 μM) and RSL3 (0, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 μM) at 12 and 24 h respectively. We added 2 μM Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1, S7243, Selleck), 100 μM Deferoxamine (DFO, Y0001937, Sigma), 100 μM Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1, N9037, Sigma), 1 mM 3-Methyladenine (3-MA, HY-19312, MCE, USA), or 10 μM Q-VD-OPh (SML0063, Sigma) at the same time with Hemin or RSL3 based on previously published work [21 (link), 48 (link)]. We treated cells with 20 μM t-BOOH (458139, Sigma, USA) for 12 h, with or without Fer-1 or 0.5 mM GSH (G4251, Sigma, USA) at the same time. Cells were collected for PI staining, TUNEL staining, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry, GPx4 activity assay, RT-qPCR, and RNA-seq.
For in vivo experiments, Fer-1 (2 mg/kg) or vehicle (0.1% DMSO (D1418, Sigma), 2.5% PEG300 (202371, Sigma) and 0.25% Tween80 (P1754, Sigma) in saline) was injected daily (i.p.) for the initial 7 days beginning 2 h after IVH. The assessment included behavior tests, neuroimaging, histology, and TEM.

Human retinal pigment epithelium cell line (RPE1) was maintained in a 1:1 dilution of DMEM-Ham’s F-12 medium plus 10% FBS. RPE1 cells stably expressing pBabe or HPV-16 E7 were established by retrovirus-mediated infection using the pBabe-puro-based retroviral construct. Cells were selected with 10.5 μg/ml puromycin for 3 to 6 days. After the infected cells were pooled and expanded, they were maintained in puromycin (6.5 μg/ml) and used within 15 passages. The HPV-16 positive human cervical cancer cell line CaSki was purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). CaSki cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and antibiotics.
Deferoxamine (DFO, Sigma) and CoCl2 (Sigma) were used to mimic hypoxia at a dose of 200 μM and 500 μM, respectively.

Hypoxia and Radiation Exposure of MDA-MB-231 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin. Hypoxia was simulated by culturing cells with 200 μM of Deferoxamine (DFO) (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) at 37°C and 5% CO2 in a humidified environment for 24 hr. DFO, an iron chelator, has been found to up-regulate hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) expression and increase expression of HIF-1α target genes associated with hypoxia. Additionally, for radiation exposure, MDA-MB-231 cells were irradiated with 5 Gy in an X-RAD 320 irradiator (Precision X-Ray Inc., North Branford, CT, USA).

Zebrafish Mutant Maintenance and Bacterial Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) AB and embryos were maintained according to standard procedures at 28 °C [23 ]. A 10-h light/14-h dark day light cycle was used. The tp53zdf1/+ (AB) fish (Zebrafish International Resource Center, ZIRC) were in-crossed according to procedures reported by Berghmans et al. [14 (link)]. The genotype of the progeny was determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) (ZIRC) of the tail clip genomic DNA. The zdf1 allele harbors a single T-to-A point mutation in exon 7 that changes Met to Lys at residue 214 which gives the genotype tp53M214K. The zebrafish tp53M214K mutation is an ortholog to the human tp53M246K (c.737T > A; p.M246K; exon 7). Only tp53M214K/M214K were used in this study. The study was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (no. 10476). E. coli DH5a (Yeastern Biotech, Taiwan) and Vibrio vulnificus YJ016 [13 (link)] were grown in shaking Luria-Bertani (LB) broth at 37 °C. The S. iniae wild-type strain 9117 [24 (link)] was cultured at 37 °C in Todd-Hewitt medium (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) supplemented with 0.2% yeast extract (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) and 2% proteose peptone (Sigma-Aldrich). Azacitidine (Vidaza®) was from Celgene (Summit, NJ, USA). Cytochalasin D, iron dextran and deferoxamine (DFO) were from Sigma-Aldrich.

NucLight Red transduced NCI-H2228 and A549.R2 cells were seeded in a 96-well plate. After overnight incubation, cells were preincubated with the desired cell death pathway inhibitors for 1 h (1 μM ferrostatin-1 (Fer1, Sigma-Aldrich), 100 μM alpha-tocopherol (αToco, Sigma-Aldrich), 10 μM Z-VAD-FMK (Bachem, Bubendorf, Switzerland), and 10 μM necrostatin-1 s (Nec-1s, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) or 4 h (100 μM Deferoxamine, DFO, Sigma-Aldrich). Then, NCI-H2228 cells were treated with 5 μM AF, 30 μM olaparib, and their combination, and A549.R2 cells were treated with 6.5 μM AF, 30 μM olaparib, and theirs combination in the presence of the IncuCyte Cytotox Green Reagent (50 nM, Sartorius) or Caspase-3/7 Green Apoptosis Reagent (2.5 μM, Sartorius). Afterward, the plate was transferred to the temperature- and CO2-controlled IncuCyte ZOOM for 72 h. Cell death was monitored by pictures (10× magnification) that were taken every 24 h to limit phototoxicity. For analysis, green object count (1/mm2), red object count (1/mm2), green-red overlapping object count (1/mm2) and Caspase-3/7 Green GCU × μm2/image were determined with the IncuCyte basic analyzer. The percentage of cell death and Caspase-3/7 positive cells were calculated with the formula: green object count/(red object count − overlapping object count) × 100.

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.
