Intracellular total Iron levels were measured using Iron Assay Kit from Abcam. Briefly, H727 cells were transiently transfected with pCS2-HBB plasmids for 24 h, and then provided with fresh medium containing 10 μM (Fe2+) for 8 h. Cell lysates were then collected and intracellular total Iron levels were measured using the Iron Assay Kit (Abcam) according to manufacture's protocols.

Quantification and Visualization of Cellular Iron

Iron concentration was measured using either QuantichromeTM Iron Assay Kit (BioAssay System, 18614-83) or Iron Assay Kit (Abcam, ab83366) following manufacturers’ instruction87 (link). For measuring intracellular iron, cell pellets were harvested after pre-incubation with ferric ions and washed twice with cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), followed by lysis in RIPA buffer. Then, iron levels were determined by the absorbance at 590 nm after incubation in iron detection reagent. Absorbance of a sample blank -supernatant without iron detection reagent- was subtracted to determine supernatant iron. The Abcam Iron Assay Kit was used for determining total iron, ferrous ions, and ferric ions by adding or omitting the iron reducer. After pre-incubating with ferric ions and dopamine, cell lysates were prepared by iron assay buffer provided in the Kit to measure iron as instructed in the protocol. The iron level was normalized by protein concentration. For tissue iron staining, Iron Stain Kit (Prussian Blue Stain) (Abcam, ab150674) was used by following manufacturer’s procedure. Frozen tissues were washed with distilled water and stained with iron stain solution for 3 min. Tissue morphology was visualized by provided nuclear fast red solution.

Quantification of Cellular Iron Levels

We detected the concentration of cellular irons according to the manufacturer’s introductions of iron assay kit (Abcam, United States). After treated with ferroptosis inducer erastin (5 μM) or RSL3 (1 μM) for 24 h, cells were rapidly mixed with iron assay buffer. We then removed the insoluble material, and added the iron assay buffer and iron probe into the reaction mixture. At last, the spectrometric absorbance was detected at the wavelength of 593 nm.

Extraction and Analysis of Wheat Apoplastic Fluids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Extraction of apoplastic fluids was performed by using a previously described method with slight modifications (39 (link)). Briefly, 14-day-old wheat seedling leaves inoculated with Fg at different time intervals were washed and vacuum infiltrated with cold water twice for 2 min. Apoplastic fluids were collected by centrifugation at 3000 × g for 5 min, and then were used for further iron content and pH measurement.
Iron content of apoplastic fluids from Fg infected wheat seedling leaves were assayed by using an Iron Assay Kit (Abcam, ab83366), and Fe2+ content was measured by using the Synergy H1 microplate reader (OD = 593 nm; Biotek Instruments, Winooski, VT, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions (40 (link)). The pH of apoplastic fluids from wheat seedling leaves and palea tissues sampled at different time intervals after Fg inoculation was measured with a pH electrode (model PHM93, Radiometer Analytical).

IHH-4 and CAL-62 cells with an inoculation density of 1 × 105 cells/well were seeded into 96-well plates and incubated for 24 h at 37°C with 5% CO2. Subsequently, both cells were introduced with 5 μM neferine, 10 μM neferine, 5 μM Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1, the inhibitor of ferroptosis), 5 μM neferine plus 5 μM Fer-1, and 10 μM neferine plus 5 μM Fer-1 for 24 h. The relative iron level of cells was measured by an iron assay kit (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) in line with the handling instruction.

Cellular Iron Concentration Quantification

According to the manufacturer's instruction [26 (link)], Iron Assay Kit (ab83366, Abcam) was used to measure cellular iron concentration. In brief, 5 × 106 cells were seeded on to the plate and then pretreated with drugs for 24 h. Before centrifuging (13,000×g, 10 min) at 4 °C, cells were homogenized by 5 × volumes of iron assay buffer. Next, iron reducer and supernatant mixture were incubated at room temperature for 30 min. Then, each sample was added iron probe and incubated without light on the horizontal shaker for 60 min. The absorbance was detected at 593 nm by EnSpire Multimode Plate Reader (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA).

Intracellular Iron and Lipid ROS Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The relative level of intracellular iron was detected by an Iron Assay Kit (Abcam, USA) following manufacturer’s protocol. The lipid ROS was detected by using C11-BODIPY (Invitrogen) staining. In brief, cells were planted on 12-well plates and incubated overnight. After indicated incubation, cells were collected and resuspended in 200 μL PBS, stained with C11-BODIPY (5 μM) at 37°C for 30 minutes. Samples were examined by flow cytometer (BD, USA). The level of malondialdehyde (MDA) was assessed by using a lipid peroxidation (MDA) assay kit (Sigma). Cells were lysed by MDA lysis buffer on ice, followed by centrifugation at 13,000 × g for 5 minutes. The absorbance values were detected at 532 nm by a spectrophotometer (BD Biosciences).

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.
