Assessing Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Proliferation was measured in quadruplicate by MTT Cell Proliferation Assay (ATCC) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry after staining with Annexin V-APC (Life Technologies) and PI (Sigma) in 10 mM HEPES at pH 7.4, 140 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl2. For cell cycle analysis, cells were washed once in PBS, fixed in 70% ethanol at 4°C, washed again in PBS and resuspended in 0.1% (v/v) Triton X-100 in PBS, containing 200 μg/ml DNase-free RNase A and 20 μg/ml PI. Samples were incubated at 37°C for 15 min before analysis on a Becton-Dickinson FACScan using FlowJo (Tree Star, Inc).

Proliferation of cultured primary CD4 T cells was measured using the MTT Cell Proliferation Assay (ATCC) following manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 80,000 cells were plated in 90 μl of media in flat bottom plates in the presence or absence of T-activator beads. After 24h, 10 μl of MTT reagent was added to each well. Plates were incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 4 h. 100 μl of detergent reagent was added to each well and plates were incubated in the dark at room temperature overnight. Absorbance was measured at 570 and 650 nm. During analysis, the 650 nm absorbance and media alone controls were subtracted from each sample.

3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay performed by MTT Cell Proliferation Assay (cat # 30–1010K) following the manufacturer’s protocol (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) was used to determine the cellular viability [27 (link)]. Finally, the number of viable cells in each well was determined by a microplate reader (SpectraMax M5, Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) at 570 nm. Cell viability was presented as percent viability relative to vehicle-treated control.

Percentage cell viability was determined using MTT Cell Proliferation Assay according to the manufacturer’s protocol (ATCC, Manassas, VA). Hep G2 cells were grown in 96-well plates at a density of ~10,000 cells/well. The cells were exposed for 72 hr to 5 mM fructose with or without the botanical extracts from 0 to 500 μg/mL. Extracts from Lot #1 of Angelica archangelica, Scutellaria baicalensis, Petroselinum crispum, and Garcinia mangostana were used. Experiments were done in triplicates and the absorbance was read at 570 nm.

The cytotoxicity of SPACE peptide was determined using the MTT Cell Proliferation Assay (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA). Cells were incubated with 1 mg/mL or 10 mg/mL unconjugated SPACE peptide in media for 30 min, 60 min, or 120 min. Cells incubated with media only was used as a control. Viability was determined according to the manufacturer’s recommended protocol using a SAFIRE, XFLUOR4, V4.50 micro-plate reader (Tecan Group Ltd, Morrisville, NY, USA).

HPASMC at 80–90% confluence were trypsinized and seeded onto 24 well culture plates at a density of 20,000 cells per well. Cells were allowed to attach overnight in growth medium (DMEM/F12K 50:50 with 10% FBS) at 37 °C. The next day triplicate wells from each cell strain were counted and the remaining wells were changed to 0.2% FBS medium. The cells were maintained under these conditions for eight more days with the medium refreshed once. On the last day cells were collected from each well and counted using a Coulter counter. Cell proliferation was determined after 5 days using the MTT Cell Proliferation Assay (ATCC, Manassas, VA).

MTT Assay for Cytotoxicity Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The MTT cell proliferation assay (catalog no. 30-1010K-ATCC; Manassas, VA, USA) was used to measure the cell proliferation rate. The assay was performed to study the cytotoxicity effect of ISRAA on the cell lines according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cell suspension was harvested by centrifugation and resuspended at 1×106/ml. Serial dilutions of ISRAA in culture medium were prepared from 50 μg to 10 pg/ml. The cell suspension (100 μl) was plated in each well in triplicate and three control wells of medium alone (to provide the blanks for absorbance readings) were included, in addition to another three wells with cell suspension alone as a negative control.
Each serial dilution of ISRAA protein (10 μl) was added to each well in triplicate. Plates were incubated at 37°C in 5% CO2 for 24, 48 and 72 h. Later on, 10 μl of 5 mg/ml MTT reagent was added to each well, including the controls and incubated for 4 h at 37°C. Following this, 100 μl of the MTT solvent (acidic isopropanol 0.04 M HCl in absolute isopropanol) was added to all wells including controls. Plates were covered with tinfoil and agitated on an orbital shaker for 15 min. Finally, the absorbance at 690 nm was recorded and the cytocide rate was calculated from the below formula: Cytocide rate (%) = (OD control − OD experiment)/OD control × 100.

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.
