Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rats in the DBI + fingolimod group (n = 42) were intraperitoneally injected with 0.5 mg/kg body weight fingolimod (dissolved in 0.9% sodium chloride; Cayman Chemical, 10006292) daily for 3 consecutive days beginning 30 min after the DBI procedure according to prior research and our initial results.
32 (link) The rats in the sham (n = 42) and DBI groups (n = 42) were injected with equivalent amounts of 0.9% sodium chloride.
TGN‐020 is known to inhibit the expression of AQP4 M23, which leads to the disruption of astrocytic AQP4 polarization.
33 (link) In the DBI + fingolimod + TGN‐020 group (n = 18), before fingolimod was administered, TGN‐020 was used to pharmacologically inhibit AQP4 polarity as previously described.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PBMC from healthy subjects and MS patients without DMD were cultured for 5 days at 1 × 106 cells/ml in the presence of fingolimod (0.01, 0.1, 1, 5, 10 μM; Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI,USA) or fingolimod-phosPHAte (0.01 μM, 0.1 μM, 1 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM; Cayman Chemical) in AIM-V medium. On day 3 and day 5, CD56 expression was analyzed as described above.
To upregulate CD56 on T cells, PBMC from three HS and three MS without DMD were also cultured for 5 days at 1 × 106 cells/ml in the presence of PHA (2 mg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) in AMI-V supplemented with 10% FBS. fingolimod or fingolimod-phosPHAte was added to the cultured wells at the concentration of 0.1 μM and 1 μM, and compared to the culture with PHA alone.

The functional S1PR1 antagonists FTY720 (Fingolimod, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor MI) and TASP0277308 (TASP, Shanghai Chempartner Co., Shanghai, China) were prepared according to a previously published protocol [18 ]. FTY720 and TASP0277308 were both prepared as stocks in DMSO, for oral administration drugs were diluted to the appropriate dose in 30% DMSO in 0.5% methylcellulose; for intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections FTY720 was diluted in saline. The selective A3AR antagonist, MRS5698 ([1S,2R,3S,4R,5S)-4-(6-((3-chlorobenzyl)amino)-2-((3,4-difluorophenyl)ethynyl)-9H-purin-9-yl)-2,3-dihydroxy-N-methylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-1-carboxamide]) was synthesized as described previously [39 (link)] and dissolved in saline for i.p. injections. These compounds have been previously shown to be specific for their target receptors and efficacious in male rodent pain models at the doses used in this study [18 –20 (link); 38 (link); 40 (link)]. The antidepressant, duloxetine hydrochloride, was purchased from TCI America (Portland, OR) and dissolved in DMSO as a stock solution, for i.p. injections stock was diluted in saline. Morphine sulfate was a kind gift from Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals (St. Louis MO, USA) for i.p injections Morphine sulfate was diluted in saline. All therapeutic test compounds were given 20–30 min prior to chemotherapy, except where stated herein as a reversal paradigm.

Fingolimod Treatment for Ischemic Stroke

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Treatment was randomly allocated using a random list that assigned a given treatment (A/B) to each mouse, and treatment was administered in a blinded fashion. Fingolimod (1 mg/kg) (#10006292, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) or the vehicle (saline containing 0.5% DMSO) was administered i.p. immediately after reperfusion following MCAo. For platelet depletion, mice received an i.p. injection of rabbit anti-mouse platelet serum (#CLA31440, Cedarlane, Burlington, NC, USA) (15 μl diluted in 200 μl of sterile saline) 10 min after reperfusion.

Gilteritinib (4 (link)) (ASP2215; Active Biochem, Maplewood, NJ) and quizartinib (4 (link)) (AC220; Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX), type I and II FLT3 inhibitors, respectively, clinically active in FLT3-ITD AML, were used at pharmacologically relevant concentrations (23 (link),24 (link)). The SET-sequestering PAD FTY720 (25 (link)) (Fingolimod; Cayman Chemical Company, Ann Arbor, MI) was also used at pharmacologically relevant concentrations. DT-061, an orally bioavailable small molecule activator of PP2A (SMAP) developed by reengineering tricyclic neuroleptics and proposed to directly bind the PP2A Aα subunit (26 (link)–29 (link)), was provided by Dr. Goutham Narla. The pan-Pim inhibitor AZD1208 and GSK-3β inhibitors TC-G 24 and TWS119 were from Tocris Bioscience, Minneapolis, MN, the c-Myc inhibitor 10058-F4 from Sigma-Aldrich, and the pan-AKT inhibitor MK-2206 from Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX.

Mast Cell Activation Assay with IgE and Inhibitors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mast cells were incubated overnight with 100 ng/ml murine monoclonal anti-DNP IgE, clone SPE-7 (D8406, RRID:AB_259249, Millipore-Sigma, St. Louis, MO) at 37 C. The next day, cells were centrifuged and washed twice with fresh media to remove unbound IgE and cells were replated in fresh media with 10 ng/ml IL-3. Stimulation was to the relevant wells added in the form of 10 ng/ml IL-33 and/or 100 ng/ml DNP-BSA for 24 h at 37 C, then cells were centrifuged and supernatant was collected. For the drug inhibition assays, ibrutinib, ruxolitinib, imatinib, and fingolimod were purchased from Cayman Chemical (936563-96-1, 941678-49-5, 220127-57-1, 162359-55-9, Ann Arbor, MI) and reconstituted per the manufacturer's instructions. Drug stocks were diluted in media and incubated with mast cells after the overnight IgE incubation step. Cells were treated for 1 h at 37 C, then washed out with fresh media twice. Cells were then stimulated as per above.

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.
