FAO assay medium (135 μL/well) was added to each well and cells were equilibrated in a CO2-free incubator for 1 h. Vehicle or Etomoxir at a final concentration of 40 μM was added to each well to inhibit CPT1 and incubated for 15 min. XF Palmitate-BSA FAO Substrate (30 μL) or BSA (Seahorse Bioscience) was added to the appropriate wells to discriminate exogenous and endogenous fatty acid oxidation. After four measurements of baseline oxygen consumption, oligomycin FCCP and antimycin A were injected. All OCR values were normalized to the total protein obtained from cells lysed by 1 M NaOH.

XF Palmitate-BSA FAO Substrate (Seahorse Bioscience) was dissolved in an FCS-free medium, then the final concentration of palmitate in the medium was adjusted to 0.3 mmol/L. At 20 min before palmitate stimulation, 10 µmol/L astaxanthin, 1 mmol/L NAC, 10 μmol/L SP600125, or 10 μmol/L LY294002 was added in the culture medium. At 24h after the exposure to palmitate, the cell lysates and medium were subjected to various experiments.
In other experimental series, MIN6 cells were pretreated with astaxanthin, and then after 20 min, 0.3 mmol/L H2O2 was added into the culture medium. At 24 h after H2O2 administration, MCP-1 and VEGF120 secretion were analyzed by immunoblotting.

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.
