Imaging:Article Title: Small molecule inhibitors of calcium channel activity and uses thereof
Article Snippet: Dorsal Root Ganglion Neuronal Cultures Dorsal root ganglia (DRG) from all levels were dissected from 100 g female Sprague-Dawley rats using known procedures as described previously (Bellampalli, S. S., Ji, Y., Moutal, A., Cai, S., Wijeratne, E. M. K., Gandini, M. A., Yu, J., Chefdeville, A., Dorame, A., Chew, L. A., Madura, C. L., Luo, S., Molnar, G., Khanna, M., Streicher, J. M., Zamponi, G. W., Gunatilaka, A. .. Calcium Imaging Changes in depolarization-induced calcium influx in rat DRG neurons were determined by loading neurons with 3 mM Fura-2AM for 30 minutes at 37° C. (Cat #F1221; Thermo Fisher, stock solution prepared at 1 mM in DMSO, 0.02% pluronic acid, Cat #P-3000MP; Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) as previously described in Bellampalli et al. DRG neurons were incubated overnight with 10 μM and 20 μM of test compounds. .. Dorsal root ganglia were excised and placed in sterile DMEM (Cat #11965; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA).
