Mitochondrial superoxide production was measured using the MitoSOX Red Kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Briefly, mitochondria were isolated and 20 μg of mitochondria in 50 μl of respiration buffer was loaded into 96-well plate. One hundred microliters of ice cold respiration buffer was supplemented with 2 μM MitoSOX, 5 μM antimycin A and 4 μM ADP. Fifty micromoles salermide or 1 μM FeTCCP was added into indicated wells before loading into the FLUOstar Omega Microplate Reader. The basal level of fluorescence intensity was measured at 355 nm and 590 nm and fluorescence intensity was measured at 5-min intervals.

Mitochondrial superoxide levels were assessed with the MitoSOX Red Kit (Invitrogen, United States) (Zhang et al., 2019b (link)). In brief, 20 μg of isolated mitochondria was added to 50 μl of respiration buffer in 96-well plates.

Cells grown on coverslips were also stained with MitoSOX Red Kit (M36008, Invitrogen, China) (final concentration, 5µM) for 10 minutes in 37℃incubator, washed with PBS for three times, 5 minutes/each time. The primary liver macrophages and the PTPROt+ cells were then analyzed under an inverted confocal fluorescent microscope (Leica Microsystems CMS Gmbh Ernst-Leitz-Str, 17-37) and software (Leica Application Suite X, 3.6.20104.0) .

Quantifying Mitochondrial Superoxide Levels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The levels of mitochondrial superoxide (O2) produced in the cells were quantified by using a MitoSOX Red kit (Molecular probe, Invitrogen), which contains a redox-sensitive dye with hydroethidine linked by a hexyl carbon chain to a triphenylphosphonium group, used to target the mitochondrial matrix due to the negative membrane potential across the inner membrane of mitochondria. The cells were plated 4 × 105 cells per well in 6-well plates (Nunc, Roskilde, Denmark). After treatment in hypoxic chamber, MitoSOX Red was added at a final concentration of 1.0 µM in HBSS (Gibco, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The cells were then incubated for 10 min at 37 °C, and then they were harvested and washed twice with PBS and finally added into 1 mL PBS. Identically, mitochondrial ROS was measured using FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) and analyzed using the flow cytometry analysis software BD CellQuest (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA, USA).

Measurement of Mitochondrial Superoxide

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ROS generation was measured using mitochondrial superoxide sensitive fluorophore MitoSOX Red kit (Molecular Probes, catalog no. M36008). The SVG-A and PHFA cells were grown in 6-well tissue culture plates (Corning, catalog no. 3506) and were transduced with either Ad-null or Ad-Agno WT (10 PFU/cell). At 18 h post-transduction, the transduced cells were transferred to 35-mm glass bottom poly-L-lysine coated plates (MatTek, catalog no. p35GC-14-C) and incubated for 5 hrs to allow the cell adhesion and were then treated with MitoSOX Red following the manufacturer’s recommendations. In brief, the culture medium was removed, and the transduced cells were treated with DMEM containing MitoSOX Red (5 uM) and counterstained with Hoechst 33342 (5 μg/ml) for 15 min 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5 % CO2. After staining, cells were washed twice with 1xPBS and the live cells were imaged using a Carl Zeiss 510 Confocal Microscope using a 40x oil objective at RFP/DAPI filter for MitoSOX Red and Hoechst respectively, while maintaining the cells at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5 % CO2. Images were quantified using NIH ImageJ software (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/). Mean integrated intensities of images (from 20 randomly chosen fields) in the red channel were determined after background subtraction and results were presented in graph forms.

The levels of mitochondrial superoxide (O2·−) produced in the cells were quantified using a MitoSOX Red kit (Molecular Probes, Invitrogen), which comprises a redox-sensitive dye composed of hydroethidine linked by a hexyl carbon chain to a triphenylphosphonium group, which was used to target the mitochondrial matrix due to the negative membrane potential across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The cells were plated at a density of 8 × 104 cells per well in 12-well plates (Nunc, Denmark) with a medium containing 25 mM glucose. MitoSOX Red was added at a final concentration of 1.0 μM in HBSS (Gibco BRL, USA). The cells were then incubated for 10 min at 37°C, and then they were harvested and washed twice with PBS. They were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and mounted in Fluoromount media (Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC), which assisted in the visualization of the slides under a fluorescence microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). The average fluorescence intensity was quantitatively determined using ImageJ by counting 50–100 cells per field of view, five representative fields per experimental group, and three independent experiments.

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.
