Quantifying Cellular ROS Levels

The cellular ROS level was detected using the 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (H2DCF-DA), which can be oxidized to a highly fluorescent 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein (DCF). AGS cells grown to confluence on 60 mm culture dish were treated with H. pylori (MOI 100 wt, cagA, virB7), chemotherapeutics (5 μM CPT, 1 μM DOX, 1 μM STS) or cytokines (10 ng/ml IL-1β, 10 ng/ml TNF) for 4 h. For the analysis of intracellular ROS levels, cells were stained with 20 μM H2DCF-DA for 30 min at 37 °C according to the manufacturer’s protocol and DCF fluorescence was measured by flow cytometry (CyFlow space). Hydrogen-peroxide (H2O2)-treated cells served as positive control and tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide (TBHP) (50 µM) was used as a positive control for analysis setting. Where indicated, AGS cells were treated with 20 or 40 μM of ROS inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) (Selleckchem). Data were reported as the mean ± standard deviation of at least n = 3 different experiments. For DCF imaging, images were captured with a 20 × objective in green channel by the IncuCyte® S3 Live Cell Analysis System (Sartorius, Essen 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.
