Z 4 oht

Manufactured by Merck Group

(Z)-4-OHT is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that functions as a tool compound for research purposes. It is commonly used in cell and molecular biology studies to induce gene expression. The compound acts by binding to and activating the estrogen receptor, which can then regulate the transcription of target genes.

OT-I Splenocyte Stimulation and Expansion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Splenocytes harvested from OT-I mice were stimulated with 10 nM OVA peptide (SIINFEKL) in cRPMI for 24 h. Stimulated T cells were treated with 4 μM of (Z)-4-OHT (Cat #H7904; Sigma-Aldrich), and were cultured for two more days at a cell concentration of 0.2–0.5 × 106 cells/ml in cRPMI supplemented with 10 U/ml rhIL-2 (Cat#202-IL; R&D Systems) in T75 flasks.

Quiescent MEF Activation by MycER and CDK9 Inhibition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MEFs were generated from embryos 13.5 d.p.f. and cultured in DMEM (Thermo Fisher 41966052) supplemented with penicillin–streptomycin (Thermo Fisher, 15140-122), L-glutamine (Thermo Fisher, 25030-024) and 10% BGS (Hyclone SH30541.03HI). All experiments were performed between passage 3 and 5. For experiments, MEFs were plated at 5 × 105 cells per 6 cm culture dish in 10% BGS (where appropriate, plus adenovirus). To render cells quiescent, the next day cells were washed twice with PBS and cultured in media containing 0.1% BGS for 48 h. After 48 h serum deprivation, cells were treated with 100 nM (Z)-4-OHT (Sigma, H7904) in ethanol to activate MycERT2 and 1 µM AZ5576 (AstraZeneca) in DMSO to block CDK9 and RNA, or protein harvested 4 h later or cell cycle analysis performed after 16 h.

Tg(mfap4:CreER) transgenic fish were outcrossed with Tg(mpeg1:LRLG) reporter line to generate Tg(mfap4:CreER;mpeg1:LRLG) double transgenic fish. After de-chorion, the Tg(mfap4:CreER;mpeg1:LRLG) embryos were incubated with 5 μM (Z)–4-OHT (H7904, Sigma-Aldrich) from 18 to 23 hpf, washed intensively with fresh egg water for at least five times, and changed to a new dish for further incubation.

Isolation and Culture of Adult Mouse Cardiomyocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cardiomyocytes CMs were isolated from adult mouse hearts (8–10 weeks of age) using a simplified Langendorff-free method78 (link) and cultured in M199 (Sigma, M4530) supplemented with 0.1% BSA (supplier, number), 1X ITS Liquid Media Supplement (Sigma, I3146), 10 mmol/l BDM (Sigma, B0753), 1X Chemically Defined Lipid Concentrate (Fisher, 11548846) and penicillin–streptomycin (Thermo Fisher, 15140-122). When needed, adenovirus was administered to CMs in culture media immediately after removal of plating media. Medium was then replaced after 24 h with culture media together with 100 nM (Z)-4-OHT (Sigma, H7904) in ethanol and collected after 4 h for RNA extraction.

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.
