Female 8-week-old specific pathogen-free Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into the OVX group (n = 20) and the SHAM group (n = 20). After acclimatization for 1 week, the rats in the OVX group underwent bilateral OVX, while similar sizes of adipose tissue near the ovaries were resected in the SHAM group. All rats were housed under standard temperature and humidity, with a 12/12-h light/dark cycle and free rodent diet.
After 12 weeks, all rats were euthanized. BMSCs were aseptically harvested from bilateral femurs and tibiae and then incubated using Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium/nutrient mixture F-12 (DMEM/F12, Hyclone, UT, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; BioInd, Kibbutz Beit Haemek, Israel) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin solution (BioInd) in a 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere at 37 °C. Only third-generation BMSCs were used for RNA-seq. For further verification experiments, the third–fifth-generation BMSCs collected from 3 to 4-week-old female SD rats were used.

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.
