Mice were anaesthetized with isoflurane (adjusted flow rate or concentration to 1.5%) and 50 μl of cardiotoxin (12×10−6 M in PBS) (Latoxan) was injected in the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle.54 Muscles were recovered for flow cytometry analysis, histology, immunohistochemical analysis, and lipidomics at days 0, 1, 2, 4 and 8 post-injury. For ibuprofen treatments, mice were treated intraperitoneally with either 100mg/kg ibuprofen (Cayman Chemical; item #: 15687-27-1) or vehicle (DMSO) at day 1, 2 and 3 post CTX injury (see scheme in Supplementary Figure 4).

After drug exposure, cells were rinsed twice with PBS and frozen as a “dry” cell pellet at −80 °C until processing. Upon thawing, cells were lysed with 200 µL acetonitrile and filtered with a 0.22 μm nylon filter (Nalgene, Rochester, NY, USA). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was performed on an i-Series Plus Integrated HPLC System (Shimadzu, Columbia, MD, USA) with an integrated photo-diode array detector (PDA). LabSolutions V5.87 SP1 software (Shimadzu, Columbia, MD, USA) was used for data acquisition and instrument control. The isocratic separation of NEO212, TMZ, and AIC was performed using a Roc C18 column (10 mm × 4.6 mm × 3 μm) (Restek Corporation, Bellefonte, PA, USA) with a column temperature of 30 °C for 30 min. The isocratic mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile:phosphate buffer (38:62, v:v, pH 5). Flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. Ibuprofen (Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) was used as the internal standard. The analytes were detected with a diode array detector at 316 nm.

Evaluating Anti-seizure Drugs in Rats

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Rats implanted with ventral hippocampal electrodes and dorsal hippocampal optodes were used in these studies. Rats were reused for several drug experiments allowing at least two days between drug treatments. Celecoxib, SC-560, ibuprofen, chelerythrine chloride, milrinone, sildenafil, SKA-31, CAY-10526, seratrodast, ozagrel, paxilline, 2-APB, levetiracetam, and topiramate were obtained from Cayman Chemicals (Ann Arbor, MI). Acetaminophen, nifedipine, bumetanide, ethosuximide, phenytoin, and valproic acid were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Lamotrigine was obtained from SelleckChem (Houston, TX). Fasudil was obtained from LC laboratories (Woburn, MA) and phenobarbital was obtained from Strathcona Prescription Center (Canada). Lipophilic drugs were dissolved in 100% DMSO, while hydrophilic drugs were dissolved in saline and injected 30 min prior to seizure induction. The seizure duration and severity of hypoxia (area below 10 mmHg) were compared across kindle (seizure without injection), vehicle-, and drug-treated groups using a within-subject ANOVA and follow-up t-test between vehicle- and drug-treated groups.

Caco-2 Cell Viability Assay for C. difficile

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Caco-2 cells were plated in black 96-well plates at 3 × 104 cells per well and incubated for 48 hours. After 48 hours, cell culture medium was refreshed, and cells were treated with indomethacin, ibuprofen (Cayman), naproxen (Cayman), aspirin, R2PPA, valeroyl silyciate (Cayman), celecoxib (Cayman), PGE2 (Cayman), or vehicle control [dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)] for 16 hours overnight. The next day, cells were intoxicated with filter-sterilized C. difficile VPI10463 cultures at a final dilution of 1:5 or 1:15 or mock-infected (BHI) and incubated for 8 hours. Cell viability was indicated by measuring ATP levels using the CellTiter Glo Reagent (Promega). Data were normalized to ATP levels of vehicle-treated and mock-infected cells.

Rotenone, ADP, antimycin A, L-glutamic acid, L-malic acid, succinate disodium, fatty acid–free BSA, collagenase type IV, Percoll®, and glucose were purchase from Millipore Sigma Corp. Calcium ionophore A23187, N-(methylsulfonyl)-2-(2-propynyloxy)-benzenehexanamide, nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), ibuprofen, oligomycin, cell culture supplements, thromboxane B2-d4, prostaglandin E2-d4, 12-HETE-d8, and 2-[2-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]hydrazinylidene]-propanedinitrile (FCCP) were purchased from Cayman Chemical Company. The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-cytotoxicity assay kit, HepatoZYME-SFM, and other chemicals for preparation of buffers for mitochondrial isolation, respiration, and swelling were obtained from ThermoFisher Scientific Inc. A rabbit polyclonal anti-iPLA2γ antibody was generated in our laboratory as described previously (15 (link)).

The drugs used in the study were: thalidomide, 7-NI (a neuronal NOS inhibitor) and ibuprofen (a COX inhibitor) obtained from Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA; 4-AP, PTZ, pilocarpine, scopolamine methyl bromide and SVP from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA; diazepam (DZP) from Cryopharma Laboratories, Tlajomulco de Zuñiga, Jalisco, Mexico.
Different doses of thalidomide were suspended in PBS with 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (Sigma-Aldrich), while 7-NI was suspended in an aqueous solution of 1% Tween 80, and ibuprofen in an aqueous solution of 5% DMSO. The rest of the drugs were dissolved in physiological saline solution (NaCl 0.9%).

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.
