The cellular production of ROS was measured using a luminescence-based ROS Glo Assay (Promega Corporation, Fitchburg, WI, USA). Therefore, exposure of HepG2 spheroids to test substances (SiO2, menadione) occurred simultaneously with incubation of a ROS Glo substrate. Menadione, which generates ROS by redox cycling,51 (link) was used as a positive control. After 24 hours, ROS Glo detection reagent was added for detection of luciferin. After incubation for 20 minutes luminescence was measured with a plate reader (SpectraMax; Molecular Devices LLC, Sunnyvale, CA, USA).

Cells were seeded in a white-walled, clear-bottom 96-well plate at a concentration of 10,000 cells/well, in 70 μL culture medium. After 24 h of incubation at previously described conditions, each well was treated with 10 μL of tamoxifen or T15 in a final concentration of 0.5, 2.5, and 25 μM. Culture medium and DMSO (<1 vol%) were used as negative controls, and 600 nM of bortezomib (bort.) was used as a positive control due to its well-known oxidative stress-inducing property [98 (link),99 (link),100 (link)]. Each data represents the average of 3 parallel measurements. After 24 h incubation with the compounds, components of the ROSGlo assay (Promega, Southhampton, UK) were prepared and added to the cells according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Luminescence was measured 24 h upon treatment with FluoroskanTM FL Microplate Fluorometer and Luminometer (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA USA).

The ROS-Glo™ Assay (Promega Inc. Madison, WI, USA) was used to measure the level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) directly in cell culture according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Glutathione (GSH) depletion was evaluated using the GSH Glo™ Glutathione Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) according to manufacturer’s protocol.
BiP, CHOP or caspase 3 expression was assessed by western blotting as described above for the FATPs (section 2.4). To detect BIP or caspase 3, 30 µg protein from a cleared lysate was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), transferred to nitrocellulose membrane and then incubated simultaneously with primary antibodies against β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and the antibody of interest. In the case of CHOP, 60 µg lysate protein was used per sample. The rabbit polyclonal antibody against caspase 3, BIP or the mouse polyclonal antibody against CHOP protein were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Beverly, MA, USA). Protein quantification was performed with the Odyssey system software.

Nanoparticle-Induced DNA Damage and Oxidative Stress

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nanoparticles can cause DNA damage to human cells [22 (link)]. DNA damage in cells was assessed using an assay for γH2AX histone phosphorylation (Apoptosis, DNA Damage and Cell Proliferation Kit®, BD Biosciences). Nanoparticles can cause oxidative damage to cells that induces apoptosis [23 (link)]. Oxidative responses in VEC were measured with a Molecular Probes CellROX Green® assay (Invitrogen) that detects an oxidation-sensitive dye bound to DNA in the cells by flow cytometry and also the ROS-Glo™ assay (Promega) for H2O2 measurements by high content analysis. Superoxide production was measured (Total ROS/Superoxide Detection kit®, Enzo) and the amount of oxidized glutathione was also measured (GSH/GSSG-Glo Assay™, Promega), as a measure of oxidative damage responses in the cells.

ROS Generation and Modulation in Human Monocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ROS generation was detected using the ROS-Glo™ assay (Promega, Southampton, UK) according to the manufacturer's instructions (39 (link)). Briefly, cells were stimulated for 2 h with Pam3, MSU, or soluble uric acid in the presence of 25 μM ROS-Glo H2O2 substrate. Stimulations were completed in serum-free Optimem cell culture media (Gibco, ThermoFisher). After 2 h incubation at 37°C and 5% CO2, ROS levels were determined following a 20 min incubation with the ROS-Glo™ detection reagent. Luminescence was measured by spectrophotometry (Biotek Synergy HT).
N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) was used in some experiments to inhibit ROS in primary human monocytes. For these experiments, cells were preincubated for 1 h with NAC and then stimulated for 6 h with Pam3 ± MSU crystals. NAC concentration was maintained during the 6 h stimulation. ROS levels were determined by ROS-Glo™ and IL-1β secretion by ELISA.

Intestinal epithelial cells SKCO15 were a kind gift from Dr. Charles Parkos, and were maintained in high glucose DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum, additionally supplemented with non-essential amino acids and L-glutamine. The mouse Rac-1 antibody was purchased from BD Transduction. The HydroCy3 was obtained from LI-Core (sold as ROSstar 550), and the Thiol Tracker from Thermo Scientific and were both used as directed in the manufacturers’ instructions and images acquired using a standard fluorescence microscope with camera. The biotinylated iodoacetamide was obtained from Anaspec. Anti-mouse secondary antibody conjugated to HRP was obtained from GE, while the streptavidin conjugated HRP was obtained from Abcam. Rabbit anti-calnexin was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. ROS-GLO assay was purchased from Promega and performed in a 96-well format following the manufacturer’s instructions on overnight cultures of bacterial supernatants.

Levels of glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) were assess using a GSH-Glo™ Glutathione Assay (Promega, Madison, WI). The protocol (384-well format) was modified from the manufacturer’s protocol (96-well format, Promega V6911). In brief, 2.5 µl of unclarified lung lavage samples (in duplicate) were treated with 2.5 µl GSH-Glo reagent with or without TCEP (final concentration = 1 mM). Following a 30 min incubation at room temperature, luciferin detection reagent (5 µl) was added, and luminescence signals were recorded on a plate reader (PerkinElmer EnVision 2104, 700 nm, 0.5 s exposure) 15 min later. For reactive oxygen species (ROS), samples were tested using a ROS-Glo Assay (Promega). Lung lavage samples were prepared as described above for GSH-Glo assays. Following a 60 min incubation at room temperature, luciferin detection reagent (5 µl) was added, and luminescence signals were recorded on a plate reader (PerkinElmer EnVision 2104, 700 nm, 0.5 s exposure) 20 min later.

ROS levels were quantified in cells, 3 hours after exposure to CSE (200 μg/ml) or H2O2 (50 mM) through the ROS-Glo Assay according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Promega, Madison, WI). GSH levels were quantified in cells, 6 hours after exposure to CSE (200 μg/ml) or buthionine sulphoximine (BSO) (200 μM) through the GSH-Glo Assay according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Promega). Luminescence was acquired using the Infinite® M200 Microplate reader (Tecan, San Jose, CA, USA). Relative fold changes (FC) in ROS levels were calculated using the following equation; FC = luminescence of sample (treated with DMSO, CSE or H2O2)/luminescence of control sample (treated with DMSO only). Three independent biological replicates were performed for the ROS and GSH quantifications using five to ten technical replicates for each experiment (n = 5–10).

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.
