2×105 cells /2ml were seeded into a 6-well plate (Corning) overnight, cells were pretreated with N-Acetyl-L-cysteine(NAC, sigma, A8199) or vehicle for 4h, then HI-TOPK-032 was added to the cells. After 6h cells were washed by PBS twice and loaded with 10mM general ROS indicatorCM-H2DCFDA (sigma) in serum free DMEM for 30 minutes at 37°C in the dark, then examined by fluorescence microscopy.

Isolation and Cultivation of hADSC and HUVEC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human adipose‐derived stem cells (hADSC, PT‐5006, Clonetics, Lonza) were cultured in keratinocyte‐SFM (17005‐042, GIBCO‐Invitrogen), supplemented with 2 mmol/L N‐acetyl‐L‐cysteine (NAC, A8199, SIGMA), L‐ascorbic acid 2‐phosphate (Asc 2P, A8960, SIGMA) and 5% foetal bovine serum (16000044, GIBCO‐Invitrogen).
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs, BCRC No. H‐UV001) were cultured in medium 199, supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum, 25 U/mL heparin (H‐3149, SIGMA), 30 µg/mL endothelial cell growth supplement (ECGS, 02‐102, Millipore), 2 mmol/L L‐glutamine, 1.5 g/L sodium bicarbonate and 1X penicillin/streptomycin.
For culture media collection, cell culture was limited to eight passages. 1 × 106 hADSC cells were cultured in 10 mL serum‐free media, with/without 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharides (LPS, L3755, SIGMA), for 24 hours. The culture media (500 mL) were harvested and centrifuged at 300 g for 5 minutes to remove cells and cell debris. The supernatants were concentrated using the Amicon® Ultra‐15 (UFC900324, Merck‐Millipore) and transferred into new tubes for further use.

NAC Treatment of Cultured Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
1×104 cells were plated in 6 replicate wells in a 96-well dish. Twelve hours later, cells were treated with N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) (2 mM)(A8199, Sigma) final concentration for a period of 1 hour.

NAC Toxicity and Protective Effects

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine the toxicity of NAC, 1 × 104 HK-2 cells were treated with various concentrations (100, 300, 600, and 1000 µg/mL) of NAC (A8199, Sigma-Aldrich, Saint Louis, USA) for 24 h. To determine the protective effect of NAC, 1 × 104 HK-2 cells were treated with 10 µM K2Cr2O7 and various concentrations of NAC (100, 300, 600, and 1000 µg/mL) at different time-points after chromium exposure (0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 h). After incubating further for 24 h, cell viabilities were directly examined by an inverted microscope, Eclipse Ti-U (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan), under 400× g magnification, and indirectly assayed using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) kit (Sigma-Aldrich, Schnelldorf, Germany), according to the manufacturer’s instruction. The absorbance at A570 nm was determined by an ELISA reader (Multiskan EX, Labsystems, MA, USA).

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.
