Ros glo kit

Manufactured by Promega
Sourced in United States

The ROS-Glo kit is a tool designed to measure the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in biological samples. It provides a quantitative assay for detecting and monitoring ROS generation in cells or cell lysates. The kit utilizes a specific ROS-sensitive substrate that, upon oxidation, emits a luminescent signal proportional to the ROS concentration in the sample.

Quantifying Endogenous ROS Levels

Endogenous ROS levels were measured using a ROS-GLO kit (Promega, Wisconsin, USA) according to manufacturer’s protocol. All four conditioned groups were plated at 2 x 104 cells per well in a 96 well plate and left in the incubator for 24 hours to adhere, prior to ROS detection. Luminescence was measured using a Spectramax M5 plate reader (Molecular Devices, California, USA).

To measure overall H2O2 levels, a ROS-Glo kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) was used as described previously [31 (link)]. Cells were treated in PBS or MnTE-2-PyP (30 µM) for 24 h. Then, cells were re-seeded in Nunclon™ 96 Flat White Plates (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rochester, NY, USA). H2O2 levels were measured according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The luminescence signal of H2O2 was recorded by an Infinite M200 Pro Plate Reader (Tecan, Männedorf, Switzerland).

Quantifying Oxidative Stress and Nitric Oxide

ROS was measured in culture supernatants (80 μl) of infected and control cells using ROS-glo kit following the manufacturer's instruction (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). WCM260 treated with 200 μM of peroxide served as a positive control. All measurements were done in triplicate. Luminescence was measured in a Victor X5 luminometer (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA). Results were expressed in relative light units (RLU). iNOS was determined in the cell culture supernatants (100 μL) in triplicate with the Griess reaction kit (Promega). Free-cell culture medium served as a negative control. Serial nitrite concentrations from 0 to 100 μM were used to generate the calibration plot. Absorbance was measured at 540 nm.

Development and Screening of QSOX1 Enzyme Inhibitors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A HTS assay was developed using reduced denatured RNAse A substrate [38 (link)]. Hydrogen peroxide produced in the QSOX1 reaction was detected using ROS-Glo kit (Promega, Madison WI) as a primary assay and HyPerBlu (Lumigen, Southfield MI) as a secondary assay per manufacturers instructions. Assays were optimized and reaction kinetic parameters were determined. The assays were miniaturized to final volume of 2 uL. HTS was also performed using the ROS-Glo assay with a substrate concentration of 80 uM RNAse A (that is close to Km value of 122 μM). rQSOX1 protein was utilized at 10 nM concentration, > 20-fold over the limit of assay detection yet still on the linear portion of the enzyme-dependent activity. rQSOX1 was screened against compounds from the LOPAC1280 library (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis MO USA) at 12.5 μM compound concentration. Compounds that demonstrated > 50% inhibition were re-tested using single-concentration in triplicate wells, followed by concentration-dependent confirmation in the primary and secondary QSOX1 assays. A luminescent assay for glucose oxidase (GOx) was used as a counter-screen. The GOx assay utilized glucose as a substrate was detected using ROS-Glo. Active and selective compounds were purchased in dry powder form, dissolved in DMSO and reconfirmed in the assays before use in the confirmatory assays utilizing the GOx counter-screen.

ROS Detection Assay Using ROS-Glo Kit

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For analysis of ROS levels, a ROS-Glo kit (Promega, Madison, Wisconsin, USA) was used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 5 × 104 cells resuspended in 80 µL per well in a 96 flat bottom plate were incubated overnight at 37 °C. After that 5 ng of phorbol myristate acetate and H2O2 substrate solution (20 µL) were added and incubated at 37 °C for 4 h. Then, 100 µL of detection solution containing Luciferin was added. The assay detects intra and extra-cellular ROS production. Luminescence was measured in a Multimode plate reader EnSpire (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA). All experiments were performed in duplicate, and the results were expressed in luminescence units.

Caspase-Dependent ROS Detection Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Caspase 3/7 activity was measured using the Caspase-Glo® 3/7 Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Briefly, the assay is based on a caspase 3/7 substrate resulting in a caspase-specific luminescence signal equivalent to the caspase 3/7 activity. ROS Quantification was performed using the ROS Glo™ Kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Here, the H2O2 substrate reacts with H2O2 generating a Luciferin precursor which is converted to light emitting Luciferin through a detection solution. The luminescence signal is proportional to the H2O2 concentration. Panc-1 cells were treated with 25–50 μM SW43-DOX for 6 h. Pan-caspase blocking (25 μM Z-VAD-FMK; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) or ROS elimination (200 μg/ml α-Tocopherol) was started 1 h prior to treatment. Caspase 3/7 substrate was added onto cells after treatment medium removal and luminescence was measured 30 min thereafter. H2O2 substrate was added together with SW43-DOX. Six hours later, the detection solution was added and luminescence was measured 20 min thereafter. Luminescence was quantified using the multi-mode microplate reader. Caspase 3/7 activity was normalized to parallel measured viability to account for occurred cell death by treatment and by untreated control group. Each sample was tested in at least triplicates.

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.
