Copeland EN (2022) Characterizing SERCA function in the hippocampal and prefrontal cortex regions of the brain from C57 and D2 mdx mice. Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada Thesis. PMID: 0

Objective: To investigate the differences between two models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD): D2 mouse model with young mice showing cognitive deficits, and C57, the traditional mouse model.

Summary: Impaired sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) function in both C57 and D2 mdx brain – perhaps due to heightened oxidative/nitrosative stress.

Usage: Western blot; NO-L-Cysteine Mouse Monoclonal, Conjugated as a marker of oxidative/nitrosative stress.

Objective: To highlight the recent progress in combinatorial lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with novel structures and properties for the delivery of small- and macromolecular therapeutics.

Summary: The administration of protein/LNP negatively impacted reproduction in rats, including sperm production, estrous cyclicity and testicular and ovarian morphology, without causing any significant side effects. This non-surgical approach can be developed into a safe and convenient strategy for controlling the overproduction of pet and wildlife.

Usage: Intravenous administration of saporin loaded LNPs

Objective: To detect the expression of proteins related to the serotonin pathway in the lung tissue of dogs affected with pulmonary hypertension (PH) secondary to degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD) compared to DMVD and healthy control dogs.

Summary: Proteins related to the serotonin signaling pathway were increased in lung tissue of DMVD dogs with PH, suggesting that the serotonin signaling pathway may be involved with the pathogenesis of PH. Inhibition of proteins related to the serotonin signaling pathway may be a target of interest or provide a novel therapeutic approach in PH secondary to DMVD.

Objective: To provide a purified preparation of cochlear fibroblasts, which can be used in vitro for further investigations.

Summary: Subcultivation of the primary spiral ganglion cells culture removed the neurons from the culture and increased the fibroblast to glial cell ratio in the preparations. Direct immunolabeling for the Thy1-glycoprotein and the p75NGFR-enabled fluorescence-based cell sorting. This resulted in a cell culture of cochlear fibroblasts with a purity of more than 99%.

Usage: Cell Sorting (1:400)

Objective: To elucidate whether P2X7R affects nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) activity/expression and glutathione (GSH) synthesis under nitrosative stress in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation.

Summary: The findings indicate that P2X7R may augment LPS-induced neuroinflammation by leading to Nrf2 degradation, aberrant glutamate-glutamine cycle, and impaired cystine/cysteine uptake, which would inhibit GSH biosynthesis.

Objective: To explore the anti-tumor activity of the RGD-SAP in vitro and in vivo, using a model of muscle invasive bladder cancer.

Summary: The authors demonstrated RGD-SAP conjugate can be easily produced in E.coli with no need of renaturation, and that this product can kill integrin-expressing cells more efficiently than a SAP variant lacking the RGD domain. Moreover, we show that RGD-SAP can inhibit the tumor growth in mouse models of bladder cancer.
