Toxin Effects on Caco-2 Oxygen Consumption

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The acute effect of toxins on oxygen consumption of Caco-2 cells was assessed using an XF24 extracellular flux analyzer (Seahorse Bioscience, North Billerica, USA). The procedure was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, cells were cultured in XF24 cell culture microplates at 1.5 × 104 cells per well and maintained as described above. Oxygen consumption rates (OCR) were measured in proliferated Caco-2 cells in non-buffered DMEM (Seahorse Bioscience) supplemented with 10 mM glucose, 2 mM sodium pyruvate (Sigma-Aldrich) and 2 mM glutamine (Eurobio) and adjusted to pH 7.4. OCR was monitored every 20 minutes before (basal level) and after injection of diluent or toxins (10 μM). OCR values from each well were normalized against viable cell counts (calculated with a Malassez cell) and expressed as a percentage of the baseline value.

CD34+ progenitor cells were isolated by positive selection kit (MiltenyiBiotec) using immunomagnetic beads cell‐sorting system (AutoMACS; MiltenyiBiotec) from healthy leukapheresis samples (from allogenic stem cell transplantation donors), in agreement with our institutional ethics committee. CD34+ cells were cultivated as recently described23 from day (D)1 to D6 in Iscove's modified Dulbecco's medium (IMDM) (Biochrom) supplemented with glutamine (Eurobio), containing 2% human AB serum (H2B), 100 IU/ml penicillin (Eurobio), 100 μg/ml streptomycin (Eurobio), 500 μg/ml human holo‐transferrin (Sigma‐Aldrich), 10 μg/ml recombinant human insulin (Sigma‐Aldrich), 2 IU/ml heparin (Braun), 100 ng/ml human stem cell factor (SCF) (MiltenyiBiotec) and 3 IU/ml erythropoietin (EPO) (Roche). From D7 to D20, cells were culture in the same medium but after SCF removal. UT7/EPO cells were maintained in α‐minimum essential medium (MEM) (Dominique Dutscher) supplemented with 10% FCS (Eurobio) and 2 IU/ml EPO as recently described.24

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.
